Title: More then 2 Days unconfirmed with 0,88 usd fees ?
Post by: hackazer on May 12, 2017, 04:07:50 AM
So my tx : https://blockchain.info/tx/44c372bda1f2846eba830a70b98cf74f94a66e9022cd0a961c38abc20f03e15a is not confimed till now, been 48 hours and counting more. It has 0,88 usd fees.

While my other tx some days ago sent a much faster with only 0,48 usd fees (https://blockchain.info/tx/a2956f7ab9a34c146994c4600ae75ce936be8ee28fe25f516564bd597f50550b)

Why is this happening ?

The value of the fee itself (especially in fiat) is completely meaningless. What matters is the fee rate in satoshis per byte.

Your transaction pays 112 sat/byte, which is much lower than the current recommended fee of 270 sat/byte according to https://bitcoinfees.21.co/. Furthermore, you transaction spends from this unconfirmed transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/acef4181af12098dd8b29e1fff0f171dfefc7d4dd58435149b1554583d6006ac. Your transaction cannot confirm until this unconfirmed transaction confirms as well. That transaction pays a fee of 105 sat/byte.

How to define that sat/byte fees ? When using blockchain, before sending i choose advanced fees and set the value fees (in this case 0,88 usd) and below it written that it will be roughly ~10 minutes to confirms .-.

It's not blockchain,it's *blockchain.info.Recently,I've figured out they don't have accurate transaction fees calculators.The fees suggested by them without the advanced section is also meaningless since the users are still facing long waits with their recommended fees.
Use a desktop wallet like electrum which gives you more control over your transactions.

I think what you can do right now is only to wait. Seeing your transaction, you've input the recommended fees which is <110 sats/byte. But still it is not yet confirmed. Maybe the problem was on the blockchain itself, see if they are having such huge amount of stagnant transactions right now which may be the cause of your problem. Or try searching for other ways to fasten the confirmation of your transaction.

Well it's been 3 days as of now, almost counting as 4 days and still not confirmed yet.
I'd some googling and found out that likely after 72 hours btc payment will be returned to the sender if still unconfirmed, but not in my case :(
So what should i do now ?
Can i pay someone to accelerate it or doing something with it ?

It's likely to be 72 hours because that's when some nodes decide to reject it, but by no means does everyone do the same thing.

Unfortunately in Blockchain you can't do Replace-By-Fee, so you don't have a lot to do but wait.  Blockchain is stupid, they have no idea when a transaction is going to confirm.

Just go to a good site for that (https://bitcoinfees.21.co/), assume that Blockchain's default fee is 120 satoshi/byte and act accordingly.

Nah it's been 5 days now, and still unconfirmed. https://blockchain.info/tx/44c372bda1f2846eba830a70b98cf74f94a66e9022cd0a961c38abc20f03e15a
Balance is not returned into my blockchain.info account.
So i am i still worth for waiting ? This 0,25 is somewhat much for me :(

Have you tried this service ? https://pushtx.btc.com/#/ Everyone is bragging about it recently,I don't know  how genuine it is.Since you're up for tips,might as well pay their service fees and see if they can get your transaction confirmed.
