Hello-
Never had this problem before, but I requested a withdrawel from Bovada about 32 hours ago, and it is still unconfirmed in my mobile Electrum wallet and I also cannot find the transaction on Blockchain or Blockexplorer. The mobile wallet just reads as unconfirmed with a status of signed, outputs and the transaction ID below.

This has never occurred before and has typically taken from 10 min - 2 hours. Other than looking for the transaction ID, how else do you track down a lost transaction?

Thank you in advance,
JR

You can post the raw transaction (transaction details in electrum, click copy button, paste here). It can be decoded to determine the fee and its validity.

Thank you for the response, is that the Outputs and not the Transaction ID (which I posted)?

you posted the transaction id, wich is usually fine, but in this case, it looks like either something went completely wrong when broadcasting your transaction, or there might be something wrong with the transaction to begin with (so all nodes reject it).

Like hexafraction said, it might be nice to see the raw transaction, that way we can have a look at it, and if it looks ok, we can help you by rebroadcasting it.

Go to electrum, right click the stuck transaction, go to details, click on save, save the raw (signed) transaction in a textfile.
Then open the textfile with a text editor (notepad, wordpad, nano, vi, gedit,..), and copy/paste the content in this thread.

OK, checked the client on the desktop Electrum, not the Mobile, and when I right click now I get this instead on block explorer:

Just an unconfirmed transaction. I pinged Bovada a couple hours ago, I wonder if they did something on their end. But fees look right, 190 sat/b, so this seems like it should go through now, right?

Nope... that fee is still way to low... The current recommended fees are much higher (and have been for a number of days now):

It has a number of options available to you for getting your transaction confirmed (both free and paid options)

However, since I am the receiver, this is on the sender at this point, correct?

Yeah... they cheaped out on fees and you had to wear it... thankfully it seems that your transaction is now confirmed. In the future, you might want to be more careful with whom you choose to do business ;)

Yeah hoping someone can help me with a similar situation -

Didn't use Blockchain but went from bovada straight to coinbase this week - never had issues for the last year

Deposit was sitting in coinbase pending for 48 hours with 0 confirmations then disappeared

Money goes back to Bovada correct ?

It has been 48 hours and bovada is checking with there withdrawl provider

This was for 6500usd

Any help and info is appreciated
Thanks

Would you please kindly delete this post and create your own thread?

If not, well, assuming that Bovada loves to send withdrawals with low fees and keep the rest for themselves.
Do you have the transaction id? If tx is still in the mempool it will simply be unconfirmed, shouldn't just magically goes missing..
