Title: Unconfirmed Transaction
Post by: Midas2016 on March 03, 2016, 07:37:47 PM
Hey Guys,

I could need some help.
My transaction did not confirm since 22 hours.
I have send the transaction with Electrum Windows version. Is the fee to low? How did I manage to send it like this anyway ?
Is there anything I can do about it?

The transaction:
https://blockchain.info/tx/3a23280693506c0cebd89a0a885047d895749149a49f1e14de254e90b21b5f8d

Thank you!

The fee is way too low compared to the transaction amount and the normal fee required is atleast 0.0001 BTC. If you are able to double spend this transaction, then do so else wait till this one gets confirmed.

Being patient is almost always the best strategy when you pay a low fee.
You should also know that the network was under a lot of stress the last few days.

It greatly depends on the TX -> https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/tx/9a19915cf0c4f9afb41ec191f71684ca10ea0bbae9a27a80768c8a6ecc578c9a (look at time received)
