Title: Need help, transaction stuck?
Post by: ayrtonq32 on August 07, 2019, 06:36:11 PM
Hello guys, im using Bitcoin Core versión v0.18.0 (64-bit) for Windows 10, first i have a problem, "Warning, cannot estimate fee", i read this forum in a thread one guy said 0.0003 BTC/kBit is ok, so i send it with the "Personalized" option to another wallet on my Android device (Bitcoin.com) in the moment i send it, a popup apeared in my phone "Transaction succefull" but my balance is $0. I tried to see the TxID in the blockchain and it doesn't exist. I tried to
"increase transaction quota" but isn't enabled (Gray button)

Already submited on viabtc.com accelerator, but i don't think they'll do anything. Please i need help!


Code:
Estado: 0/no confirmado, en el pool de memoria
Fecha: 7/8/2019 15:05
Para: 1ExxCQ9vWksqpG9QDiJFjTVt6a8GAN1uTX
Enviado: -0.05008520 BTC
Comisión de transacción: -0.00004080 BTC
Cantidad neta: -0.05012600 BTC
Identificador de transacción (ID): c544e9636628e0ad4527e2791fcc377b70cb5cf2bfe7e5552a633e1b44a5eddd
Tamaño total de transacción: 217 bytes
Tamaño virtual de transacción: 136 bytes
Indice de salida: 0

I initially, deliberately, set the transaction to "Request Replace-By-Fee", and I want do increase the fee now.

However, this does not seem to be possible by design. I get a "Fee bump error" saying "Increasing the transaction fee failed (Transaction does not have a change output)".

What to do about it?
Why am I not able to change the target/fee balance of a transaction, and how am I expected to increase the fee at this point?

i Read something about -zapwallettxes but i dont how to use that

Your transaction is showing up just fine on the following blockchain explorers:

https://blockstream.info/tx/c544e9636628e0ad4527e2791fcc377b70cb5cf2bfe7e5552a633e1b44a5eddd

Your fee is set at 30 sat/vByte, which works out the same as 0.0003 BTC/kVB as you say. Currently your transaction is sitting around 2.5MB from the tip, so it the mempool starts to clear out a bit as it usually does at this time, then you can expect to be confirmed within the next few hours.

I tried to "increase transaction quota" but isn't enabled
I assume this has been lost in translation and you are referring to RBF. Your transaction is opted in to RBF, but without a change output, you will be unable to use it.

According to the current estimate in my Bitcoin Core client, it should confirm within 4 to 8 hours.
If you're not in a hurry: just wait.

ViaBTC is the real deal.

Update: The transaction is confirmed (https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/c544e9636628e0ad4527e2791fcc377b70cb5cf2bfe7e5552a633e1b44a5eddd), by ViaBTC (https://www.blockchain.com/btc/block-index/1777418).

Thank you very much for the quick answer. Just to clarify, I am not selling or buying anything, I am passing bitcoins from bitcoin "core" to an Android wallet of Bitcoin.com.

I cannot add increase transaction fee, I get the sign that says "Transaction does'nt have a change output"

My bad, i didn't check your transaction, transaction with& 1 output isn't common. But since you only send bitcoin to your another wallet, then waiting is best option for you.

Also, i found similar discussion at https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/q/64814 (https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/q/64814)

yes, RBF requires a second output as a source for additional bump fee, as explained in that link too
but he can also do manual RBF by re-recreating a new transaction with lower output and higher fee
and btw he doesn't need to wait any longer :) the transaction has received a few confirmations

Think of it like this...

Scenario A: You want to send $9.75 to someone... and the fee is $0.25c... so you use a $10 note... You have nothing left over. There is no "change"... so you have nothing left to increase the 0.25c fee with.

Scenario B: You wanted to send $9.50 to someone... and your fee was 0.25c, and you used a $10 note, you'd have 0.25c of "change" leftover... so if you wanted, you could add that change to your original fee to make the fee 0.50c.

You are in Scenario A, you have nothing left within the transaction to be able to increase the fee... you cannot use other funds in your wallet, you can only use the "change" from the transaction itself. Unfortunately, you have no change, so you cannot increase the fee.
