Bitcoin Forum

Two weeks ago I was stuck with a transaction because I was sent with a low fee:

I tried every accelerator page and forum but no one can help.

The "child pays for patent" and "replace by fee" procedure here can not be used.

Is there anybody else's usable idea?

It would take about 0.003 btc to get confirmed . Choice is yours !

I found an interesting information here https://bitzuma.com/posts/how-to-clear-a-stuck-bitcoin-transaction/ but I do not know if it will make your problem clear, my advice for the future better you are using a higher fee

LOL. 0.6 SATS/BYTE! I thought 1 SAT was bad and you win by a mile!

I messed up royally, on a $2,535 USD BTC order. I paid 2c fee. It went thru in 1 hour! Go figure!

I also messed up one other time this year also, again around a $2,500.00 USD item, was a 8c fee,

that one took like 1 week to clear...(with the BCH fork, they reset my web hot wallet,to like 2011 fee or some such, FYI)

If your fee is TOO low, if you can't accelerate it or fix..you just have to wait, from what I understand

Google for the latest BTC accelerator, the one I used, now has 'warped' into one ONLY for Bitcoin Cash (BCH) version

good luck

edit: post above mine has a better link to a thread on accelerators. FYI. Hope it helps!

No worries man, i just accelerated it on my pool for you. Just wait for confirmation

I wait !

Accelerate 37 USD ?  ???

Which pool do you manage, cause if you pool finds less than 3 blocks/week on average, the odds of OP's transaction being dropped from the mempool of most nodes is bigger than the odds of his transaction ending up in a block from your pool...

OP: i once wrote a tool to help people fix these problems: https://www.mocacinno.com/feecheck.php?txid=bb473c1155c018c16dd0216587ff4aa183f421d26cf3f38d67cb73af67efbfc4

Since you say RBF and CPFP are out of the question, you can still try to double spend one of the unspent outputs you used as an input for your transaction, and try to broadcast it... If a couple days have passed, your original transaction might already be dropped from the mempool of some miner's nodes, so it might actually work (altough it's still a longshot)

EDIT: please, people, stop talking about FIAT (USD) in relation to transaction fees... It does not matter how much USD you sent to somebody when you're talking about fees. A $30 transaction might need a $100 fee for a fast confirmation, a different $30 transaction might be OK with a $1 fee. It's all about the number of inputs, outputs and wether or not you're using a segwit wallet.

try someone service to speed up the transaction in this forum may be help u sir or try to double ur fee i think that's too low if i look ur balance transaction.

For me, RBF and CPFP are neither the sender nor the recipient (i'm) know the private key. The destination address is a stock exchange deposit address.

I tried it all!

The transaction will go through. If you sent it with a very low it should still go through just takes way longer. Maybe 1 Month?

Try some paid service from viabtc. Looks like they accept paid service if you in urgent or in very low fees. I hope this can help you.

Not really... It *might* go trough.
At the moment, the unconfirmed transaction is stored in the mempool of the nodes. The default setting of most nodes is to remove unconfirmed transactions from their mempool after 72 hours (IIRC). This setting can be modified by each node individually (for example, my node keeps an unconfirmed tx for 10 days, but other nodes might keep tx's only for a couple of hours).
IF a transaction only has a fee of 0,6 sat/byte, there is a chance it will remain unconfirmed for such a long time that most (mining)nodes just dropped the tx from their mempool, either because it stayed there for to long, or they rebooted, or their allocated memory was full and they dropped the lowest fee tx'es

MY previous post on this thread...they won't take it if your transaction is TOO low....I did a couple (see my previous post) one went thru at

2c in an hour! Without an accelerator helping ...because original fee was too low....The other later...but is sucks to wonder

you can try the acclerator..if the fee you originally did on the BTC transaction is too low the viabtc app will tell you

No need to try it out, their limit is 10 satoshi/byte, OP's transaction has 0,6 satoshi/byte. There are a couple services out there that do accept tx's with such low fees, but most of them are paying...

i mean did he already try to use paid service from viabtc? I know if free service doesnt accept transaction if the fee isnt 10 sat/b or higher. But if you scroll down, they say if they offering paid service.
I mean, he can try contact them first and ask for paid accelerator service if OP want to use paid service.

If i'm not mistaking, the payed acceleration service will even work with a 0 fee transaction (as long as you get it broadcasted).
BUT 0,01 BTC/Kb is huge... His transaction is 0,559 Kb, thus would need an "extra" fee/tip/... of 0,00559 BTC, bringing his total fee up to 0.00000336 + 0,00559 = 0,00559336 BTC, which is almost 1/3th of the value he's depositing...

You right, thats why i bolded this

I've had BTC on my 2 issues both come up as a transaction fee to low to accelerate. *then again mine were stupid low like 12c and 2c on 2.5k transactions* :(

they did go thru eventually, w/o using an accelerator....knock wood it works the same for the OP of this thread!
