Title: Transaction Sent Taking almost 2 days , what's wrong? Willing to tip for help
Post by: dclawpker3535 on December 03, 2016, 04:49:29 AM
Hey guys i'm very confused, i sent some btc almost 2 days a go using the default fee and it hasn't gone thru, what could be causing this? Has never happened before, since this i've already put the fee on max and other transactions works but this one still isn't going thru...
BlockChain Link: https://blockchain.info/tx-index/e94022faf0fbdea8ef413237cd53498e73977830f9b8284183be87dc958ac919

is it stuck? can i do something to fix this?

Any Help is welcome, will be willing to tip if someone helps with the case..

Regards

Clawpker

i've already put the fee on max
No, you didn't.

You have a fee of 0.00019231BTC/kB which is ~19satoshis/byte. This is WAY lesser than the network average of 100 satoshi/byte.

Try contacting macbook-air or quickseller and I believe they can have the miner mine it for you, for a small fee.[1] You can also spend the outputs with a larger fee and hope miners with Child Pay For Parent patch would mine it for you.


[1] Actually, I'm not too sure but that's what some claims.

Just send them a PM. Go to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=16114 to PM macbook-air and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=358020 to pm quickseller.

No. You can attempt a double spend transaction which has a higher fee and will replace this stuck transaction. This requires telling your wallet to forget the transaction and then you resending the transaction by spending the same inputs but including a higher transaction fee. If you want to do that, we need to know what wallet software you are using.

If the sender does not double spend the transaction, you can attempt a Child Pays For Parent Transaction. This transaction will have you spend from the unconfirmed transaction and send the Bitcoin back to yourself. The transaction will also include a fee which covers for both your CPFP transaction AND the stuck transaction. This also requires us to know your wallet software if you want to do this and need help. Most wallets will not allow you to spend from an unconfirmed transaction.

Thank you very much @achow101
Ive pmed both users now that you linked;
The Wallet i'm using is MultiBit HD, what would i need to do to process the double spend transaction? I will most likely not do this if it's complicated if one of the users you listed helps with the case, thank you once again.
