Title: Unconfirmed transaction not displayed in electrum history Post by: mzallocco on January 07, 2018, 08:32:28 PM I'm using electrum 3.0.4 on windows.
I have send to my electrum wallet, a transaction with too low fee, and its been over 1 month and still unconfirmed. That transaction was showing up in electrum history as unconfirmed, but not anymore. I wanted to use "Child pay for parents" but without the transaction in history for selection, I don't know how to proceed. Is there anything I should do to get that showing up? Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction not displayed in electrum history Post by: LukeAppWalker on January 07, 2018, 10:52:31 PM It has been dropped by the mempool due to time delay or mempool size limit. It may also be that your network has auto changed in Electrum that has a lower min fee acceptance for miners.
If your wallet is synced, you can enter a new transaction. You can also re-broadcast the transaction if you have a saved unsigned tx file, resign it on an offline device. This is normal.

The transaction is 35035 bytes long and looking at https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/ I chose 0.0007 mbtc/byte = 25mbtc, which ends up being about 8% of the btc being transferred. Hopefully that will work.

Your fee of 25 mBTC = 0.025 BTC Given that current recommended fees are like 500+ sats/byte... or 0.005 mBTC... with a transaction of 35,035 bytes (!!?! :o :o :o)... you'd need a fee of 17,517,500 sats... or 0.17517500 BTC. You transaction is not likely to confirm anytime soon. |
