Title: Stuck at unconfirmed
Post by: BottleMan on January 28, 2017, 11:37:05 PM
Hello,
Noob here, so apologies in advance.  I tried to send this transaction:  d770ddea3e861b29f3c8c9a05e0d0a1495ef2331335404df69f5d3c03c82f305

I tried the accelerator site 2 hours ago. It looks like it never made it out.

What do I do now?

Thanks,

BottleMan

Viabtc accelerator is not really a transaction accelerator.  It only makes the submitted transaction(s) included in Viabtc's mined block.
This means that you'll have to wait for them to mine a block.  Just be patient, it shouldn't take very long.

The other solutions requires you to wait a day or two or send the bitcoins from that transaction with higher fee (100 satoshi/byte + 0.0002BTC should do), but it looks like you're transferring all bitcoins from one output to a service.

It looks like this transaction has already confirmed. Next time, I recommend you use a higher fee for it to confirm quicker.

I recommend enabling the Dynamic Fees feature in Electrum under Preferences which can better estimate appropriate fees.
