Title: Transaction is taking > hour, no single confirm
Post by: BCMan on February 16, 2012, 08:23:21 AM
 And stuck at the same place in bccharts unconfirmed transactions. Why so damn long?
 UPD. Ok, confirmed now, but I've lost some cash with so long transaction. Bitcoin is really slow.

That's the cost of decentralization. 

But still, it's faster than gold.

Did you send it without fees using the "No Forced TX Fee" Bitcoin fork? If the fee is too low, the transaction will be ignored by most miners.

 Nah, I paid fee for transaction. However I had 3 of 6 confirms on one of transactions, which was in main transaction Ive sent. When it got 6 confirmations of it, main transaction was confirmed within minutes. Could be the issue?
