We are back to where we started from earlier today. My Bitcoins are only worth what they were at 06:38.  

Bitcoin qt will keep rebroadcasting the transaction if it's connected to the internet. The first thing you need to do is switch off your internet connection if you want the network to forget your transaction. After that follow the instructions in this quote to force your wallet to forget the transaction.

After that you can switch your internet connection back on

Like erikalui I can't find any transactions for the address 17s76okR5MbYCiEn42f4a6SrgW29HMeGtK in any of the well known block explorers.

If your transaction propagated at all not many nodes have seen it. After you remove the transaction from your wallet you should have no problem sending another with the correct fees.

Try using the guide in this reddit post, and follow all the instructions in it for setting the fees.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5zchm8/sent_transaction_with_low_fees_in_electrum_can_i/dex2alq/

You only paid a fee rate of 80.361 sat/B

https://blockchain.info/tx/a4a7cea37ddce86d82361d31ea4232109ed384e7dab6565afe4b188152ad781e

For fast confirmations you need to pay a rate of 360 satoshis/byte today according to https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

To prevent it happening again first make sure you are using the latest version of electrum. Afterwards click tools in your electrum wallet's menu bar, then click preferences, then click the fees tab. Check the box marked "use dynamic fees".

To speed up your current transaction's confirmation time you can try using this free service at the start of each hour.

https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

Alternatively you can email support@viabtc.com and pay 0.01BTC to get your transaction confirmed.

A cheaper option is contacting these two miners clicking these links and offering to pay to get confirmation.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=358020

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=16114

They charged 0.0001 BTC per transaction last year, but probably want more now.


If you choose to do nothing your transaction will either eventually confirm, or the network will forget about it and your Bitcoins will return yo your wallet.

This is your transaction.

https://blockchain.info/tx/388dcd050448f4462f1b453699106c3f880ea59273462a4cfdbd6554a76ef2e6

Unfortunately it spends unconfirmed coins sent to it from earlier unconfirmed transactions. There's three chains of unconfirmed transactions that all sent unconfirmed coins to the address used in your transaction.

This is the first transaction chain that sent unconfirmed coins from one treansaction to the next in a series of five transactions.

https://blockchain.info/tx/ce7e58a5664fceaf50527a378e731f3891380cd245ead0b65d17f5054932228d

https://blockchain.info/tx/7fc0a8881caaa28871aad78ed13bae2efd43aafd72fa58409133fa89e5c3dd36

This is the second transaction chain.

You can do nothing and hope they confirm, pay a miner to confirm them, or try using the free viabtc accelerator (although it would probably take over a day to submit that many transactions to it).

This is the free accelerator page.

https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

These are two miners you can pay to get confirmation.

Is there any chance of chart buddy coming back to this thread?

Do you have your multibit HD wallet seed words? If you do you can install bread wallet on your phone and create a new wallet in it using your multibit HD wallet seed words. Afterwards your multibit Bitcoin balance will show in bread wallet, and you can send your coins wherever you like. That's the simplest solution, but you either need an iPhone or a recent android phone. Bread wallet won't install on older androids.

If you choose to install bread wallet make sure you install the real one. There are fakes that sometimes appear in the app stores that will steal your Bitcoins.

After you install it instead of choosing “New Wallet”, select “Restore from Backup” and enter your multibit HD wallet seed words.

A user called BioChanger tried it and said you just use your same twelve multibit wallet words in bread wallet. He says bread wallet does not support more than 12 words



Another user called TraderCal11 also says bread wallet successfully imported his multibit wallet words.




There's a more difficult technical solution. I walked two different users through extracting their private keys from their multibit HD wallets and importing them into electrum.

There are instructions in this thread that helped the first user.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1733063.msg17347818#msg17347818

There are instructions in this thread that helped the second user.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1785575.0

If you want to pm me I could walk you through it by pm.


edit

HCP found an android wallet that runs on older android phones and imports multibit HD wallet words. If your android phone can't run bread wallet then try "Simple Bitcoin Wallet".


edit2

However, the latest reviews for "Simple Bitcoin Wallet" aren't very good. I haven't tested it myself, and you will have to make up your own mind if you want to risk it bearing in mind those reviews.

It's because it contains dust. If blocktrail says it contains dust viabtc generally refuses to see it.

https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/bf78ad8bf2057b10f744a5b35b785baaf34870187b21dcf8290d452ec1eeee7a

There is a paid viabtc accelerator service that would probably accept the transaction. Viabtc has this explanation at the bottom of its accelerator page.

You needed to use a higher fee for fast confirmation. I submitted it to the viabtc transaction accelerator for you.

https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

The viabtc pool will confirm it in ts next block if no other pool includes it in a block before then. Here's the times of its last blocks.

https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC

Bearstamp's not looking so bearish today. It's at a $2100 ATH.

It's unlikely to be as fast as a few minutes. The linked page shows viabtc only mines a few blocks a day. Sometimes there's an hour or two between its blocks, but sometimes it's over twelve hours between them.

https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC

I managed to successfully submit both your transaction and its unconfirmed parent to the viabtc accelerator. The viabtc pool will now confirm your transaction in the next block it mines. There's a list of the times it mined its most recent blocks here.

https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC

Btc.com only accepts Alipay payments. If you don't live in China it's almost impossible to pay with Alipay. It says it will soon add payment methods for westerners, but it doesn't have any today.



Viabtc also provides a paid service, but it charges 0.01BTC for each transaction which is over $20.




Two users here called quickseller and macbook-air can get f2pool to confirm your transaction, and probably for less.

You can contact them by clicking these links.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=358020

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=16114

They charged 0.0001 BTC per transaction last year, but probably want more now.

Your transaction spends unconfirmed coins that were sent to it in an earlier unconfirmed parent transaction. The transaction below must confirm before yours can confirm.

https://blockchain.info/tx/663b9a6748d98895902f8cdff37f5b100d5aec52465e01177a77f97ba690e144

Ty submitting the unconfirmed parent to this website first, then submit your transaction to it after it's successfully accepted the parent.

https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

Last year quickSeller charged ahmedjadoon 0.0001 BTC for one transaction, but you have about 17 extra parent transactions for each of your transactions. If he charged the same rate you would pay 0.0018 to confirm one of your transactions and all its parents. However, the fees required to deal with today's backlog are higher than last year's,so he'd probably ask for more.


The number of unconfirmed transactions in the network has dropped from over 200000 to about 150000. If it continues dropping your transactions might confirm by themselves, but if it goes back up again you are either in for a long wait, or the network will forget abut your transactions.

You can see the number of unconfirmed transactions here.

https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions

You can try paying a miner to confirm your transaction before its double spend gets confirmed. Viabyc also offers this paid service in addition to its free service.


You could also try contacting either quickseller or macbook-air and offer a small payment to get your transactions confirmed fast.

You can contact them by clicking these links.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=358020

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=16114

I tried pushing your transaction through a few different websites including coinb.in, which rejected it with the error code "258: txn-mempool-conflict". That means your transaction is part of a double spend.

Blockcypher's explorer now shows it's part of a double spend, but didn't a few minutes ago.

https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/99379b9db2b4da581a874ecd0d6a4302df935b6000333ee795aeb8efc4678dbf/

Blockchain.info recognises your transaction, but doesn't yet recognise the double spend transaction,

Try installing the electrum wallet on your computer, then importing your private key into it using these instructions.

http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/faq.html#can-i-import-private-keys-from-other-bitcoin-clients

If you try the viabtc accelerator you need to submit the unconfirmed parent to it first, before you submit your transaction to it. Viabtc also provides a paid service. You have to email support@viabtc.com to use it.

This is the third unconfirmed transaction from your list.

https://blockchain.info/tx/6a9dfa000e76ce842e49efbfc16443f73c7649960c72b88fbc17e9f479d6ce4c

It has this massive chain of unconfirmed inputs, Before your transaction confirms they must all confirm in the right order, starting from the bottom of the list to the top.
