Title: Unconfirmed transactions for about 3 weeks-use electrum don't see unconfirm tran Post by: Hipeople2024 on April 08, 2024, 05:27:44 AM Hello all! PLEASE HELP!
I have 2 unconfirmed transactions for about 3 or 4 weeks now. I sent with only 5sat fee for both transaction (at the time sent was around 55sat). Right now it is showing that the sent account balance is LESS or Deducted the amount was sent, But with the unconfirmed clock/unconfirmed in the transaction; and my receiving account now is showing a Credit that was sent to and also has the unconfirmed clock/unconfirmed transaction in the received transaction. I used Electrum today trying to boost my fee so i can re broad cast and want to have it confirm but electrum did not see these unconfirmed transactions in electrum(yes, I set up wallet in electrum correctly). I'm really tired seeing unconfirmed transaction for TOO LONG NOW. My question is: - why electrum doesn't see my unconfirmed transaction when i pulled from cold wallet (just updated it's firmware before doing electrum). it only show about 5 confirmed transaction from 2021 or earlier but not recent transactions.? - Why does electrum says that "unrelated transaction to wallet" when i pasted in the transaction ID. is this mean that this transaction was from diffenrent wallet than the one I sent.? could it be mempool sent my transactions around? - Why on my ledge live i keep seeing the same transaction amount being send automatically NOT ME like yesterday and today or every 2 to 3 days and wasn't me sending them. same amount but diffent days sent? - In my recieving account, the balance show a credit but unconfirmed, does it means that it is already credited to my balance or it just showing it but it is not real? same with the sending account balance? Can I transfer these unconfirmed transaction to another wallet? - If my 5sat fee is too low for about 3 or 4 weeks now, why hasn't it return back to my sent account from mempool? I was moving some fund from one wallet to another wallet in same cold wallet. PLEASE HELP ME! I have learned my lesson using so low fee, I thought eventually it will confirm OR return but I been waiting for 3 or 4 weeks now. My transaction also has a RBF opt in. What would eventually will happen, i mean this is going on for too long? Thank you all for the help! this is my 1st post. please shed some light! Thank you! ???

Because a node has dropped your transaction, that does not mean the receiver will not still see it as an unconfirmed transaction because some nodes will still have the transaction unless the coin has been spent in another transaction.

My guess is that the server you are probably connected to doesn’t have your transaction again in its mempool but the transaction is definitely in other nodes mempool. Ideally it should be showing local and your amount should still be intact in such that you can broadcast new transaction with that same amount.

Yes ideally it should have been dropped but nodes have different mempool settings some would still have that transaction in their pool and as such it will remain in your wallet as unconfirmed but you should be able to actually do an RBf on it.

When you connect your Ledger to Electrum, you have to enter the correct derivation path for Electrum to know where to look for your transactions. Ledger Live calls them bitcoin accounts. Do you have multiple bitcoin account in your Ledger Live? If so, go to the one you sent the coins from in Ledger Live, click the gear icon to open the info window, and copy the correct derivation path from there. It should look something like this: m/44'/0'/0'. Ledger Live will display more digits, but don't copy all of them. Only the first two digits following the "m/44" part. You should then see your entire transaction history in Electrum. If the unconfirmed transactions are there, right click on them and increase the fee. Use https://mempool.space/ as a reference for the type of fee you need for a slower/quicker transaction. The reason why your unconfirmed transactions haven't been dropped is that there are still nodes on the network that have them in their mem pools. Unless you connect to one that no longer has them to "cancel" your transactions, they will still be available until all nodes drop them. Could you post a screenshot to show us the other problem where you said that Ledger Live keeps sending the same transaction over and over again? Cross out all identifiable and sensitive data you don't want the public to see. |
