Moral of the story: DON'T collect dust. If you do, you're going to get slammed on transaction fees... or you're going to have to find a wallet that allows you to set a manual fee (Note: Electrum will import Mycelium seed if you select BIP39 from options during seed restore), and send with a stupid low fee and your transaction will get stuck for days waiting for confirmation. You can then join the legions of people posting "ZOMG Transaction not confirmed for DAYZ!!!!!1!1!" threads...  Thank you so Much for the explanation. This is exactly what I was looking for. You are correct I do receive payout's from mining on a daily basis. I should just increase my max payout from the pool to limit that from happening. In the meantime is there a way to clean it up without having the huge transaction fees? He did answer your question. Read the last paragraph again. -- Send with a very low fee, and then you can join the people complaining about it taking a long time. -- So, send all your dust to a new address with a low fee. Takes a lot longer (and hopefully confirms), but then you'll have all your dust as a single new input on a diff address. I don't get the dust part I guess, what is considered dust? I mean I got over .28 in the wallet so send all.28 to a new wallet. But I would still get a huge fee. I mean I tried sending 80 dollars worth and that was 17 bucks to send. Or are you saying just send a dollar's worth to myself or something? Sorry just trying to understand. If you have all your addresses in one account in your mycelium wallet you can import the wallet into electrum. Afterwards you could wait until the network isn't overloaded and try sending your dust with very low fees. Electrum gives you full control over exactly what fee you pay, unlike mycelium. I think it only works for addresses in mycelium's first account. You just put your mycelium seed words into the text box electrum shows when you create a new wallet. You have to click the options button, then check "BIP39 seed" as in shown the screenshots.   A few of us tested the technique and it worked for all of us. That'd be where I went wrong, it's working now. Thanks!
Wait... so you can confirm that you managed to import a Mycelium HD wallet into Electrum by clicking the Options button, ticking the "BIP39 Seed" option and then using the Mycelium seed words in Electrum?  Yup. I guess "BIP39" is the magic work  Nobody tested it with multiple mycelium accounts, but this quote suggests it won't work with a second mycelium account. editIt does work with multiple accounts, but you have to restore them individually using a popup asking which account you want to restore. A user called Michail1 tested it. *snip* I have tested with a multiple mycelium account wallet. It will work for other accounts; however, you have to restore them individually. Meaning, follow the process outlined prior for each account within the wallet seed. You get a popup asking which account you want to restore.  My seed has 6 accounts. 0-5 I restored the first 4 as tests to know that it works. |

Hello, my bitcoin transaction has been stuck for a few days now,
transaction id:
450337d3c4619abf961c7c8ab2144592e7338fbd459780761291577711923411
Willing to pay someone if they can get it fixed, thanks.
I successfully submitted it to this website. The viabtc mining pool will now confirm your transaction in the next block it mines. https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/If you want to send me a tip you can find my address in my profile here. You can see a list of the last blocks the viabtc pool mined at this link. It gives a rough idea of how long you will have to wait until your transaction gets confirmed. https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC |

ok, but is there any way to fix the present situation?
You can try contacting quickseller and macbook-air and offering them a small fee to confirm your transaction. However macbook-air hasn't logged in since May 07, although quickseller logged in recently. You can contact either quickseller or macbook-air and offer a small payment to get your transaction confirmed fast. This quote gives an example of how much they charge... I faced a similar issue a few days back transaction not getting confirmed due to low fee but user "QuickSeller" got my transaction confirmed in minutes when I sent him 0.0001 BTC. He has access to some pool . PM him.
They can get F2Pool to confirm your transaction, so when it mines another block your transaction will probably get confirmed. You can see the times it mined its latest blocks here. https://blockchain.info/blocks/F2Pool |

Hi hitec,
and thanks for your reply.
But it seems I just had a "lucky strike" and retrieved my wallet. I'll explain the procedure just in case, might work for other people as well :
1/ uninstall MultiBitHD 0.5.1.
2/ Goto C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming and delete MultiBitHd directory ( or just cut&paste it somewhere else just in case if you don't want to lose it )
3/ install MultiBitHD 0.4.1 (a previous version ).
4/ When asked, retrieve wallet with seed words.
5/ Be quick, as soon as it starts synchronizing you'll be able to click on finish before it becomes disable.
6/ It will ask you the password, type it here, it will work. (Everytime I waited the end of the synchro to type the password, it failed)
Of course, it worked for me, not sure it will work for anyone else, or if it's this specific procedure which corrected the situtation, but I think it's worth a try.
Thanks for posting a procedure that worked for you. If it worked for you it will probably work for others. |

Hi guys, same problem for me, "transaction did not deserialize completely"
Isn't there any way to retrieve a wallet with another soft, if you have the seed phrase, the password and the timestamp?
Whatever the solution is, if someone could make a step by step procedure, it would be great. ( i tried a lot of things with electrum, which is stuck "synchronizing...".)
thanks everyone.
Try the procedures from this quote. Installing breadwallet on your phone works, but if you have an android phone it needs to be a recent model. Afterwards put your multibit seed words into breadwallet to access your coins. If you install breadwallet make sure you install the real one, fakes keep appearing in app stores and they will steal your Bitcoins. If you can't use any of the phone methods in the quote there's a link to a more technical way of getting your coins back at the bottom. If you use the offline webpage described in it then install virtual box or vmware and run it offline inside a virtual machine. You can solve your problem by importing your multibit wallet words into breadwallet on your phone. You need either an iPhone or one of the latest androids to run breadwallet. If your phone can't run breadwallet you could try importing your multibit wallet words into mycelium, which runs on older android phones. This post explains how to do it, but I'm not sure it works. I know of people who tried with breadwallet and reported it works, but I don't know of anyone that's tried with mycelium yet. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1818831.msg18116628#msg18116628 There's another solution if you can't use either the breadwallet method, or the mycelium method, but it requires more work. You can find out how to do it by reading the thread link below. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1785575.0 |

The last thing I need to do is shorten my life by succumbing to stress about mere money. Sure, I follow the day-to-day ups and downs of the Bitcoin market, but it's just partially to watch for buying opportunities, and mostly for entertainment.
That's good advice, I got carried away in the past, went without sleep, got over stressed, and made myself feel like crap. Ironically if I had relaxed and not followed the market so closely I would have made more money.
I only buy bitcoins directly to paper wallets either anonymously through ATMs or more recently directly from individuals for cash.
Have you ever had any problems buying from an ATM, like you put the money in and it goes offline immediately afterwards and doesn't send you your Bitcoins?
I haven't had a job since 1976.
How did you manage to avoid working for someone else for over 40 years? Were you self employed? |

Holy moley. Just got back from the ball game (and a few celebratory beers) to see an even better buying opportunity than I missed earlier.
I ran out to buy when it hit $1650 but it was back up to $1720 by the time it got there so I passed.
Hopefully it'll still be cheap enough to buy by tomorrow morning.
It is as you see ... 1659$ as of now. It was, now it's back up above $1700 on bitstamp. Maybe it's best to buy the dips fast during this rally. None of them lasted very long recently. |

Back in the real world, this correction is setting us up for another big run up if things go on as they are, targetting 3200-3600 end june early July now (6 week doubling). Yeah. Agree. This is a once-every-4-years rally. Those don't splutter out at a mere multiple of 2. It was less than two days ago that we kept on hitting new ATHs on stamp. It's only down by $90 from the $800 we were at then. Bitcoin's becoming so valuable that one or two hundred dollars down is a small correction. It's another ATH on bitstamp, it's broken past $1800. Now $2000 is getting extremely close. Bitfinex has an ATH of $1867, only $133 off that magic $2000. It shouldn't take stamp too long to catch up after bitfinex breaks that target.  |

Thanks man, I managed to accelerate the 1st transaction as well through the viabtc accelerator, I was lucky af cause literally after 1 minute "spots" were all taken. Will I need to repeat the same process for the two other transactions? Yes, you'll have to go through the same process for the other two transactions. Try the 2nd next, then the 3rd. Okay.. I think I managed to push the 2nd as well, however the 1st transaction still has 0 confirmations even though we both "pushed" it.. Your 1st transaction now has three confirmations. i successfully submitted your 3rd transaction through the viabtc accelerator. They should all be confirmed when the viabtc pool mines its next block. https://blockchain.info/tx/28d3292e8f5142c30f5ea72d975622ef92a0d5e90e1884637f4b59816d32bc0b |

I'm not an expert at using Bitcoin core, and this link from 2013 might contain out of date information. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=232979.0However, it says core will rebroadcast unconfirmed transactions every 30 minutes while the sender keeps his wallet open. If you read the whole thread it explains how to deal with unconfirmed transactions, but as it's from 2013 it might be out of date. I'm sure other users here can advise you better than me about core. How do I resend a transaction?
Bitcoin-qt will rebroadcast unconfirmed transactions every 30 minutes or so. As long as the sender has his client open, the transaction will be rebroadcast.How do I resend a transaction with extra fee?
For Bitcoin Core users: - Right click the transaction and choose "Abandon Transaction"
- Send the coins again with a fee
Third party client usersHow do I remove an unconfirmed transaction?
If you do not want to see the unconfirmed transaction, you can remove the transaction from your wallet. Once the transaction gets confirmed, it will reappear in your wallet. |

The network's overloaded with unconfirmed transactions today. This website recommends paying a fee of 270 satoshis/byte to get fast confirmations. https://bitcoinfees.21.co/Your 1st transaction only pays a fee of 109.093 sat/B. That's normally an OK fee, but it's not today because there's 169000 unconfirmed transactions in the network. https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions |

I pushed your transaction through the viabtc transaction accelerator. Now the viabtc mining pool will confirm your transaction in the next block it mines. It mines blocks at random times. The page linked below shows the times of its last blocks. It usually gets at least a few every day. https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC |
