Hi All

I would like to know if anyone has experienced this before? I have sent money from my blockchain wallet to my private wallet and its been 24 hours and theres not one single confirmation yet...

Looking forward to any reply

Bitcoin unconfirmed transaction again increase in a massive number in the last couple of days.
I have 1 transactions in the last 4 days that took almost 24 hours to get a confirmation.
3  transactions took 12,7 and 5 hours for a confirmation. I have 1 currently just now awaiting as well.
Just please be patience my friend, there might be a slight delay but basing on my experience
if will go through just wait.

Thank you for that prompt reply my friend. I will exercise patience then and wait it out, my first time been on the unconfirmed list of transactions feels kinda nerve wrecking Lol

Normally I would ask about the fee you included in your transaction.

But since you are using blockchain.info there is high chance that wallet is automatically picking the best fee (unless you set fee manually).

So after looking at current number of unconfirmed transactions, my second thought is: we have standard network overload,
as always when bitcoin's price is soaring and we have bubble going on number of unconfirmed transactions tend to be abnormally high.

When the network is congested, if you want to ensure fast confirmation you should use a higher fee that places your transaction at a higher priority. This site https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ shows the recommended fee/ byte  you should use to ensure fast confirmation (fee that is very high at the moment).

Indeed you should pay up (higher than normal fees) if you have anything important re Bitcoin.  If it is IMPORTANT, and the size (kb) is not large, I would suggest paying BTC0.001 (10x the amount often chosen as a default.)

Or you can try to "accelerate" the trx by using this nice service:

Note that your fee must be at least BTC0.0001 to use this.  I moved along quite a few very small trx that were stranded in a wallet of mine.

Please post the transaction id of your transaction.

As was mentioned, the likely culprit is a low transaction fee.

You have a few options here. You can wait and hope it confirms, wait for the transaction to be "forgotten" by the network, attempt a double spending transaction that pays a higher fee, or ask a miner to confirm it for you.

Unfortunately the third option will be particularly difficult for you as you will need to use a wallet other than blockchain.info and move your private keys to that wallet.

For the fourth option, you can contact the users Quickseller (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=358020) and macbook-air. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=16114)
