Ethereum Network is suffering from congestion since last week. Maybe because there are many people using it right now. There are also news, i dont know if these are rumours, that ethereum was compromised. Maybe this also affect the network.

Before send a transaction check https://ethgasstation.info/  in order to know the safe gas price (currently is 41 gwei)

The congestion has been present from some days now, it is difficult to transfer ether with lower gas prices. The best thing to do when there is congestion is to check gas prices at https://ethgasstation.info/ and send the transaction with the required gas amount to avoid stuck transaction.
I myself have burnt some ethers when my transactions failed after being stuck for long time because of low gas.

Ok then, I can see I´m not the only one having this problem. I also learned that several people has more than 600 confirmations and have been waiting for 8 hours until now. So I guess one just have to be patient  :-\
