My bitcoin transaction is veerrrry slow why the confirmation is slow? What should I do?

when you made this transaction and what is tx id

If you have added sufficient fees as per your outputs & it shows high priority, it'll be confirmed in next couple blocks.
Make sure it have right amount of transaction fee.

There are currently a high number of unconfirmed transactions.

The most common reason for a slow confirmation is a fee that is too low compared to the other TX.

Blockchain network is congested thus transactions are slowly getting confirmed so it will take more time for transactions with low fee to get confimed.
Yoy can get through every thread in here the reason and possible solution to your problem.

If you are only waiting for a small amount of bt then your best option is just to wait for more hours for it to get confirmed.

The time that your TX will be confirmed depends on 3 main factors:
-fee: usually (I said usually) it would be 0.0001 BTC but in some circumstances, I would recommend setting it to 0.0002 (at least) for guaranteed confirmation
-inputs: this goes with the fee too. The more bitcoin input you have the more fee you will have to pay
-block time: well sometimes the miners just can't find the new blocks which halts the whole blockchain and all you can do is wait.

You should wait, I had it to the other day don't worry and it will complete.
How much fee did u add to the transfer?

Maybe you could post your blockchain tx details, so we can check it out for you?
Because maybe it didn't go trough and you are waiting for nothing then.

You might have opted for the free transaction without fees. Such transactions get delayed than the transaction made with certain amount of fees. You need to give a minimal transaction fee to get a confirmed transaction with ease.

The only you can do is waiting until your transaction confirmed. Actually there are many topic like this, so you are not alone mate. I think there's a problem on something.

Because of pools like antpool mining all these empty blocks, every now and then we have a huge backup of transactions. Dont worry, itll confirm soon. The mempool could forget it, though.. I think THIS backlog will last a bit longer than the rest.

If im not wrong there's many transactions unconfirmed at current time AKA Spam attack , making low fee transaction took long time to be confirmed
If you guys need your transactions to be confirmed then i suggest to use fee as high as possible so your transactions will be on top of priority, thus making it confirmed much faster

good luck ;)

only 10k ive recived the tx now  1whole day before i recived my sats :(

why does it took many time to received your satoshi, it must be the fee, in my exprience when i decrease the fee i've got same problem like you, just saying

why not you read my thread ..?

it's edu about unconfirmed transaction

your edu thread is not entirely correct.
min relay fee is not fixed and can be lower or higher than 0.0001 because nodes can manually set it. and relay fee (https://bitcoin.org/en/glossary/minimum-relay-fee) should not be confused with miner's fee (https://bitcoin.org/en/glossary/transaction-fee) which can affect the confirmation time (depending on the size and priority of the transaction.).
so even if you send a tx with 0.0001BTC and it meets the minimum fee to get your tx relayed by the nodes, it may still take days for it to be included in a block by miners.

As my experience if send 10k satoshi in other wallet as the same as a fee if you don't set the fee for high the transaction is very slow..
I also experience it  in coinbase if i send 10k-15k satoshi only the minimum fee is decreasing i think below the minimum fee for every transaction.
So that the result is medium priority and sometimes 1 day before you receive your bitcoin..
Can you share what is your TXid and what is your wallet? so that we can easily know if what happen about your transaction..

Until we fork this is only going to get worse. My hope is for a quick collapse in value. That may wake up the miners by destroying their business model.

There needs to be a fork very, very soon. If not, the fees will go to the moon and bitcoin will crash. Simple economics. :)

this can happen if the mienrs ar enot basically in charge of the manipulation going on, this is why you are assisting at a new bottom each time

i know that they are behind the scene here, the market is too rigged for my taste, same pattern each time, same range played

Use this site next time and see what transaction fee you need to put to confirm faster:

It depends on how much fee you send to process your transaction, if you send higher fees, your transaction gets into priority queue :D
