Title: multibit hd sending forever
Post by: UKRBIT on April 04, 2017, 06:40:50 AM
I'm sending  79 dollars using multibit hd. I sent 79 dollars but i forgot to change the fee so maybe its default is the lowest. But its already 12 hours. I am also confused why i have two recipients. I remember that i only added 1 recipient but the amount still sent to the one i added. And i checked the 2nd repicient using blockchain.info then i saw it only received a tiny amount  Only around .0008. What should i do with my multibit wallet?  Should i always use the highest fees? What is the average time of the transaction to finish using only minimum fee? So i will have an idea how long my 79 dollar transaction will be processed. Thank you

Including a smaller fee in the transaction is longer to confirm and it will possible to stuck to the network too
You can provide the transaction id of your transaction?
Or just pushed your transaction via tool : https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ if you include a fee with 10 satoshi per bytes.

Thank you. What should i do with the transaction id? What is the viabtc. I clicked it but i got paranoid that it has a malware so im scanning now. I hope you understand that i have to be paranoid on this site. About my transaction. It happened also to me using multibit classic thats why i changed to multibit hd.  But at multibit classic, i just use the tool, reset blockchain and transactions a few times then it continues processing. I was fed up that it always happen thats why i tried to use hd. I/m not sure if the fee is zero by default because i checked the details of the transactions


 
amount including fees  -0.0699
 
amount including fees USD -79.20

the transaction fees is n/a.


Transaction fee rate sat/byte - n/a

Don't worry, it's not malware. They're a mining pool.
When you submit a transaction id to them, they'll include it in the next block they mine. I think it's just a service for people that have entered the wrong fee or are impatient :)

Thank you. I submitted my transaction id to them. Can you give an idea how many hours is the average transaction of a 100 dollars and how much fee should be? Thanks

The value of the transaction doesn't matter, only the satoshis per byte.

You can have a look at the average confirmation time for varying satoshis/byte on https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

You paid just over 26 sats per byte, which could take anywhere between 35 and 1260 minutes.
