The fees were too low. You could try submit your TXID to ViaBTC accelerator but I doubt you will find a spot with the hourly limits they have. Its very likely that you transaction won't get confirmed and will end up returning to your wallet (or whoever the sender is) after a few days.

As a suggestion for the next time, I recommend checking bitcoinfees.21.co to see the fees that are the fastest and cheapest and use a wallet that allow dynamic fees. (Electrum for example)

Yes, but some of these wallets have had some hiccups with their dynamic fees... people paying MASSIVE fees that are not realistic. You cannot

pay $200 fees to transfer $20 to someone.  :o ... My advice, and this adds on to what OmegaStarScream were saying, would be to check your

fees, even if it is pre-configured by your wallet provider. { computers make mistakes }  ::)

Just try to use via accelerator https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
Are you be able to use CPFP method? to gain more priority for your transaction. But your transaction already on the high priority by the miners. https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/bc19104e615ba441c0aeed6a144239ffcb075d6e409305ca5a7a4df1142c3cb7/
Don't worry, my friend gets same problem with you.

If you want to get fast confirmation and try to put your transaction on the accelerator which makes you able to pay more fees to get a validation for your transaction.

Right, fees is only 120.108 sat/B as compared to standard rate of 226 sat. However, it is always good to use adequate fees than entering pool through ViaBTC. I personally never used it but do read some positive reviews.
So OP you can have a try, rest depends upon number of transactions in ViaBTC pool.

Even with a standard rate of 226 sat/byte it's still hard to get confirmations today. Earlier I made a $5 deposit (https://blockchain.info/tx/f4fffd50c5aff6a9e781cd753bd0e2e6a930806b91d64f473c705f0d27cb21be) on lootmarket with $1.3 worth of miners fee and it's still unconfirmed for almost 3 hours. It's hard to get a slot in the accelerator since it only accelerate 100 bitcoin transactions every hour.

Edit: Finally just got a confirmation. The fees are really getting out of hand.

Just wait it mate this is normal when the transaction fee you paid off is too low maybe when you tried to withdraw next time choose the normal or fast confirmation of bitcoin.

I am getting error message
"Transaction rejected by our node. Reason: Transaction was previously accepted but has been pruned from our database"

If you have private key of this bitcoin address and a some technical knowledge then you can double spend your transaction with higher fees.
