Help ;( Title: Re: 20000Bytes transaction wtf??? Post by: unholycactus on January 30, 2017, 04:26:25 AM Can you link the transaction?
You probably have a lot of inputs, probably due to the fact that you were doing a lot of micro transactions and sending them all out at once. I'm curious to see how you reached 20k though.

according to http://bitcoinfees.21.co/ you needed to pay 110 satoshi per byte and if you are saying the size correctly (20,000 bytes) it means you should have paid 0.022BTC fee for it which is ~$20 what you paid ($13) is ~0.014BTC it will take a longer time to confirm mostly because there are 20K unconfrimed transactions right now (https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions) you should wait but also try using this: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ I'm curious to see how you reached 20k though. here is an example for your curiosity 52135 (bytes) :) https://blockchain.info/tx/ef492f5dd516f51061a77bc148b8925e74557b1f31a42ca51098f26b82c23fb0 Title: Re: 20000Bytes transaction wtf???

[1] for uncompressed pubkeys as in this example. Title: Re: 20000Bytes transaction wtf???

It may be useful to put the full 'calculation' for the TX size in here (unless something has changed):Quote in*180 + out*34 + 10 plus or minus 'in' https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/1195/how-to-calculate-transaction-size-before-sendingGenerally I recommend that people combine outputs whenever they can. This is also beneficial for the network as it reduces the UTXO set. Title: Re: 20000Bytes transaction wtf??? Post by: pooya87 on January 30, 2017, 02:01:16 PM ~ I think with "advanced view" its more clear. well, i assumed a "curious" person would investigate further :) the interesting thing about that transaction for me was this part "0xfd2201" which translates to "290" inputs based on how ComactSize is defined. |
