Title: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: vortexz on February 15, 2016, 05:21:14 PM https://blockchain.info/ro/tx/ceb7f40b9572e511154770a7c8c905badc9dc9903e024735ef1f72cf6dd0486d
why is it not getting confirmed ? is there a change that it won't get confimed? someone bought my 4 miners I don't know if I can give them to him already ? will the transaction get confirmed 100% ? is it safe to give him the miners already ? thanks Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: SFR10 on February 15, 2016, 05:24:43 PM The fee is clearly not standard on this case and that's why it's taking longer than usual for this transaction to get confirmed but it happened to me in the past as well and it got confirmed like in 2 to 3 hrs from the time of sending however , wait for the confirmation first before giving your miners to him. And lastly, next time, remove the /ro/ from the transaction so it would be in english ;)

Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: achow101 on February 15, 2016, 05:29:16 PM Can the sender cancel the transaction by any means and resend it with a higher fee? The sender could attempt an RBF transaction. Basically it is just the same transaction but it has a higher fee. The fee would need to be at least 0.0024138BTCTitle: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: vortexz on February 15, 2016, 05:35:28 PM What is an rbf?how can he do that?
Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: erikalui on February 15, 2016, 05:35:28 PM You need to wait for 4-5 hours as the fee is less and it will take 6 blocks to get confirmed. I had a similar scenario and the transaction took 3-4 hours to get confirmed.
What is an rbf?how can he do that? You can read about RBF here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3uphgv/eli5_what_is_rbfreplacebyfee/ Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: vortexz on February 15, 2016, 05:36:42 PM So it is not safe to give him the miners yet?
Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: erikalui on February 15, 2016, 05:37:59 PM So it is not safe to give him the miners yet? No. Wait till you receive 1 confirmation and then it's safe to give him the miners. Title: Re: Unconfirmed transaction Post by: vortexz on February 15, 2016, 06:11:15 PM it finally got confirmed.
poor guy had to wait 2 hours before I could release him the miners :P and it was not his fault, the sender was another guy, the guy at my house was just the delivery boy:P |
