Like I know that transactions with low fees take longer time to be confirmed. Its like pay high. Confirm first. Maybe show us the tx? Good luck Title: Re: Newbie with unconfirmed transaction Post by: liveflipcoin on June 23, 2016, 01:45:00 AM How do I find the "tx"?

https://blockchain.info/address/1JUGNonNct8M4ysaT9DDmvzWz1971kHfov Every transaction has a tx id at the upper left side of it. As in the URL I put the latest transaction has a tx of 15bd4d1020438e40a690cd63a5a5952ecdc9f49a56408f82fd11d55217e659ab Just click on that serial and paste the link in this way. https://blockchain.info/tx/15bd4d1020438e40a690cd63a5a5952ecdc9f49a56408f82fd11d55217e659ab Title: Re: Newbie with unconfirmed transaction Post by: liveflipcoin on June 23, 2016, 02:07:43 AM Hi, it just went through. Thank you that is the longest its been (~over 2 hours). Also do you recommend making an advanced manual transaction fee/ miner fee of .0001 bitcoin FOR EVERY transaction sent?? thanks again

Usually miner fees of that amount will be good enough for anything currently. You're sending quite a lot so it shouldn't matter much.

For example look at your transaction it had fees of 0.0002871 BTC But still took more than 2 hrs. It depends on how the bitcoin network is congested or not. It's best to leave the fees blank (to be selected automatically by the client) depending on the previous transactions. There are actually much info about this on the internet like calculating the transaction size (in bytes) then selecting a suitable fee, but in my experience none of that turned out to be really accurate or helpful to me. Anyway, good luck and happy to see your coins settled finally. |
