Title: Bitcoin Core Abandoned low fee tx - still cant use the funds Post by: AvPro on November 20, 2018, 02:09:48 PM So I sent a tx with a fee 10% of what it should have been - https://i.imgur.com/CLypjqB.png - you can see the mempool has ballooned in the last 12 hours.
I used the right click Abandon transaction option in Bitcoin Core and the funds were ''available'' again in my balance. But now I cannot send anything as nothing is being accepted onto the chain (the tx IDs dont appear in public blockchain explorers at all) and when I use another service to send the raw transactions I get txn-mempool-conflict error. What can I do to use these funds again? I thought abandoning the transaction would make it spendable again? - I tried to Sweep the keys to a fresh wallet but it is sweeping everything but the stuck balance - Can't use bumpfee as not BIP 125 - Pruned node so also cant use zapwallettxes I tried to do a double spend in Bitcoin Core by selecting 'Inputs...' and ticking all the transactions there, made sure I was sending exactly the same amount again and put a larger fee but it would not be accepted (not appearing on any public blockchain explorers). I had to tick all the Inputs as the stuck transaction actually almost drained my wallet. So in order to have the balance to send it again I need to tick all Inputs.

I've also had a quick look at the mempool, there are a hell lot of transactions in it, most of them has 20 sat/B fee or lower... Have you tried any of the tx accelerators?

I thought abandoning the transaction would make it spendable again? you need to wait until the network (or that service) drops your previous transaction or push the new transaction to a node that hasn't received your previous transaction Please send a txID, or wallet address, in order to be able to check your transaction. @OP yes, please provide your unconfirmed txid if you don't mind, it would give us more insight on your situation and you should move this thread to Bitcoin Technical Support (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=4.0) subforum to get more replies and helps |
