Title: Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled. Wait a few blocks or enable Post by: CRahn on July 10, 2019, 02:16:22 AM i get this msg when i try to sent BTC. Please, help me
i tried -fallbackfee in the console but i got " 04:10:26  Method not found (code -32601) " I'm using Bitcoin Core Title: Re: Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled. Wait a few blocks or enable Post by: BitMaxz on July 10, 2019, 02:31:34 AM You must put a fee in order to use the -fallbackfee it should be like this -fallbackfee=<amount> or this sample below.
Code: -fallbackfee=0.0002 0.0002 is a default fee according to this https://manpages.debian.org/experimental/bitcoin-qt/bitcoin-qt.1.en.html I don't how did you get the error but according to this below. Quote from: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Miner_fees Sometimes, it is not possible to give good estimates, or an estimate at all. Therefore, a fallback value can be set with `-fallbackfee=<f>` (default: `0.0002` BTC/kB).

Fallbackfee is disabled.... (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5083168.msg48602001#msg48602001)You need to open bitcoin-qt or bitcoind, not bitcoin core gui's console. T/N: If you set it to 0.0002, it will set the tx fee to 20sat/byte if the fee estimation still failed. Or as the error said, "wait a few blocks" as your node must be a few blocks away. Title: Re: Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled. Wait a few blocks or enable Post by: CRahn on July 10, 2019, 03:07:01 AM im using only bitcoin-qt console.
there is no command of fallbackfee meanwhile: getwalletinfo -> "paytxfee": 0.00000000, 05:05:40  settxfee 0.0002 05:05:40  true ->send transaction fee 0,00020000 BTC/kb Warning: Fee estimation is currently not possible Title: Re: Fee estimation failed.

It is a configuration option that you add either to your bitcoin.conf file or you start bitcoin-qt with it.there is no command of fallbackfee Title: Re: Fee estimation failed.

..."can be used to include additional configuration files. -fallbackfee=0.0002" nothing changed how can i open the bitcoin-qt with the bitcoin.config ??? i could post some screenshot if it helps Title: Re: Fee estimation failed.

It should just be..."can be used to include additional configuration files. -fallbackfee=0.0002" nothing changed Code: fallbackfee=0.0002 Then restart bitcoin-qt. The config file is only loaded at start, so you need to restart. Title: Re: Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled.

I'm not entirely sure if setting a fallback fee will actually solve your problem, but i guess we'll see. Title: Re: Fee estimation failed. Fallbackfee is disabled.

The only code you should include is: Code: fallbackfee=0.0003 Is there a problem with using a custom fee? It would be less complicated if you were to set your own custom fee in the other field.

(Or not?) https://bitcoinfees.earn.com says the fastest cheapest right now is: Quote The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 72 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top. So if you want to get your tx'd confirmed the fastest you should probably use ~ Code: fallbackfee=0.00072 Doesn't really matter though. |
