Title: Multibit classic - Unconfirmed transaction for two weeks
Post by: amuleth on May 16, 2017, 04:02:22 PM
I had a small amount (around $24) on Multibit classic 0.5.18 and I used the standart fee to transfer my money to an exchange. Now my transaction waiting for about 2 weeks. I tried "Reset blockchain" two times but didn't work although seeing by 93 peers!

I could do nothing and I'm starting to be hopeless.

Do you have any suggestions?

That transaction seems to be dropping from a lot of mempools, I could only find it on blockcypher.com... Attempting to push the transaction on btc.com, blockr.io etc all say there is an error and that it could be either an "unsigned" transaction or a "double spend"? ???

The address: 1H9hQPjwfXvFcrDRbWBrRC28K3j2ATjM4F (https://blockchain.info/address/1H9hQPjwfXvFcrDRbWBrRC28K3j2ATjM4F) looks OK... seems to have 2 UTXOs in it... so I don't see anything untoward... maybe one of the other experts can identify what is wrong...

the raw transaction is:
Code:
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

I reset the blockchain couple of times. Could it be related to this? Should I wait? (I think this is the only thing I can do in this situtation.

Seems like the transaction has dropped from everywhere now... If you reset the blockchain within the wallet and wait... it will take a LONG time... I just clicked it, then opened the "messages" window...

So it looks like it is slowing crawling the blockchain looking for transactions... if yours does the same, it should eventually come back with all your coins and you can attempt a re-send... with a proper fee... be warned tho... fees are currently MASSIVE!

The current best transaction fees 252 Satoshis/byte | 0.00252 BTC/KB
The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 450 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top.

Good luck
