Title: Created a transaction with too small fee
Post by: xyzwarrior on July 10, 2013, 09:02:32 AM
I sent my bitcoin from qt file to my other wallet, but I don't know what transaction fee was and I only set it to 0.00001 BTC when I'm sending 0.04877278 BTC. So it has been staying unconfirmed for months. Will it be confirmed ?

Probably never for all practical purposes. You most likely need to double spend the coins.

You can remove a transaction that isn't confirming by using pywallet and performing wallet surgery:
