Title: Can Someone Help Confirm My Transaction?
Post by: Newchanka on January 06, 2018, 02:47:17 PM
I've been reading about transactions being unconfirmed for hours but never experienced it, maybe because I never used lower transaction fees. Surprisingly today, my transaction hasn't been confirmed in hours despite using recommended network fee. What could be wrong? Can anyone please help?

Thank you

Bitcoin always  experiences a  higher volume  of network traffic when it slowly begins to approach it's ATH , and it's usually because people highly prioritize some of their transactions way above the means of the recommend network fee, and those presumptions are usually based on how they perceive the rate of the unconfirmed transactions filling up in the mempool. If you wanted to accelerate your transaction, you could use a service like viabtc, although i would just be patient :)
