With a fee of 10 satoshi's/byte, you can use the viabtc txaccelerator (link on the page above). Other options can also be found on this page.

BTW, your raw tx was:

you can use pages like:
https://blockr.io/tx/push
https://blockchain.info/pushtx
https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/pushtx/
http://www.mocacinno.com/index.php#txpusher

to push the tx back in the mempool of some of the nodes...

Strange,
Usually, a vendor asks for your address to issue a refund.

If it was really a private key, you can swipe it in electrum.
Using electrum 2.7.18 go to wallet => private keys => sweep

But once again, i find this kind of refund rather strange... That being said, i don't think you can do harm by using this procedure. If the vendor didn't send real private keys, you should probably just get an error, and that's it...

I don't know if they have an ANN thread, but i can vouch for them... I've used them a couple times in the past, and they did exactly what they promised...

For example, my last bitmixer payment had an inssuficient fee (77sat/byte, while at that time, around 150 was needed IIRC):
https://blockchain.info/tx/55b804f338b923d8029e6aa0df8453b85a46b6e69e940d3427ddb4937f8a205f

I used the accelerator, and a very short while later, it was included in viabtc's newest block:
https://blockchain.info/block-index/1467923

just by coincidence, i've just dusted off my old geccoscience this weekend, ran it for +24 hours on slush's pool.
My earning were between 60 satoshi's and 90 satoshi's per block found....

About 10 blocks a day, earning you less than 900 satoshi's for a full day of mining.

I would strongly advise against faucetting, because i think it's a waste of time, but you'd literally earn more by claiming from 10 faucets than you would earn by mining 24 hours with a geccoscience stick.

Sad but true

Very, very unlikely.
You would have to solve a block with the same diff as the other miners, so you'd need a truckload of hashpower to do this... It's called solo mining, and its nearly possible to hit a block with a cpu/gpu minwr

Basically, if this wallet was collecting "dust" (very small) inputs, and now you want to spend those, the fee will be pretty high... At the moment, there is a huge backlog in the mempool, this causes the needed fees to rise pretty high...

Your best option might be to wait untill the number of transactions in the mempool lowers, if you're lucky the fee/byte also gets lower, and you might be able to create a transaction (no promises tough)

How many inputs did you want to use to create the transaction with a value of 0.00013BTC ?

The formula to estimate the fee => (in*147 + out*34 + 10 plus or minus 'in') * 220.
The 220 satoshi's per byte can be found on https://bitcoinfees.21.co/
IN your case, the number of inputs could be calculated as =>  ((in) * 147 + 1 * 34 + 10 + (in)) * 220 =~ 200000

So, if the transaction had 5 inputs and one output, the fee is more or less what i'd expect it to be...
(5*147+34+10+5) * 220 = 172480 satoshi's...

you can use the viabtc txaccelerator, you can re-try the whole repair operation and make the fee even higher, you can contact Quickseller or macbook-air and offer them a bounty to include your transaction, you can create a CPFP (altough doublespending by repairing your wallet might be easyer to do)

I've got the calculations for your first tx right here:
http://www.mocacinno.com/feecheck.php?txid=e305b5c811586261ea59164ca864b85d10419fe95f039297b544e6209eb430d1
that way you can learn a bit about fees and how they're calculated

It's basically for a buyer and seller to do business with minimal risks.
It's pretty simple, both buyer and seller (or business partners) agree that they don't fully trust eachother, but they do trust a thirth party.

When they sell an item, the buyer doesn't pay the seller, he pays the independant thirth party.
The thirth party now confirms he has the full payment in his posession to the seller. The seller now sends the goods to the buyer.
Once the buyer confirms he received the goods, the escrow now releases the payment to the seller.

This way, it's impossible for the buyer not to pay for the goods, since the payment has to reach the escrow before the seller even ships the item.
The buyer is also more secure, since if he payed the escrow, and the buyer doesn't send the item, he won't get payed. In case something goes wrong, there is also an independant thirth party to look over any evidence. Since this thirth party is also the person holding the funds, he can actually make a binding decission and either refund the buyer, or release the funds to the seller.

I took this thread off my watchlist since i no longer wanted to participate.... But since it popped up under my unread replies, i noticed you started to mock me:



Altough, i'm a believer in the theory behind not feeding the troll, in reality it gets hard not to answer to somebody mocking you, so one last post combining all my concerns towards your service.

As an answer to your mockery:
1) I found it to be ridiculous to ask the equivalent of 12 bucks for 1 pixel on a website, that's why i assumed you were talking about those 10x10 squares on your page... There is no math there, just counting. Maybe i counted wrong, IDK IDC
2) I have been participating in this community since 2014, some people don't like me, some people even ignore me, but i'm pretty sure i helped more people, and gave more good suggestions during this time than during the 5 months and 107 posts you've been here.

As for your website... My gut feeling tells me there is something wrong with this whole setup.
You claim to have sold 17% of the pixels. IF i counted correctly (not calculated, just counted), that's ((1000 x 1000 x 17)/100) * 0.02 (price per pixel) = 3400 BTC =~ 4,2 million USD. Sure, you can make fun of me, but the cold, hard fact remains you're telling us that at this very moment, you have deals with people to pay you more than 4 million dollars to keep their add on your site...
Even if only that one scam-ad for the bitcoin doubler was paying, and all the rest was free, you're still telling us that somebody actually payed (or promised to pay) you 790BTC =~ 0.97 million USD for a spot on your site.
This would be perfectly normal if your site was google.com, bitcointalk.com, nike.com, but in your case, your site looks like it's using a script that was writting in 1990 (no problem tough, as long as it works), it simply doesn't work 100% of the time (i get a connection refused error in at least 25% of the time), and was registered only in 2016. It doesn't even have keywords in the domain name that are related to BTC, nor are the adds directly under the tld (you seem to be hosting a contact form there).

When running your site trough an estimator like estibot.com (since you cannot provide statistics), it says the domain value =~ 0 USD. Other valuators appraise it around $14, but it seems like they all estimate this site gets between 0 and 60 visitors/day.
So, in reality, if i was buying a decent size banner spot on this site, i'd pay a very maximum of 60 (visitors/day) x 365 (days) x 0.000002 BTC (average price for a unique adview) = 0.0438BTC a year. This would be for a 468*60 adspot on a prime location... Even if i was going to assume this site would still be around in 10 years (i personally think it will be gone in a couple of months, but that's just my personal belief), i'd only pay ~0.4BTC for a permanent spot. This is in strong contrast to the 468*60*0.02 = 561.6 BTC =~ 700.000 USD you think this spot would be worth.

To be honest, because the estimated value (for one year) is a factor ~13000 times smaller than the asking price, only leads me to belief there's something wrong.

On the plus side, it looks like the name used in the whois information does live in the city that was used in the registry info.
Altough, i couldn't find a company on the address in the whois info, i don't judge... i don't have a company either (offcourse, my site offers free advice, it doesn't try to sell addspots for thousands of dollars)

As for your pixel lottery... you claim the price to be worth 297 BTC, so i can only assume you're raffling off an adspot of 14850 pixels... So it would fit a 297x50 pixel banner. In my estimation, this would be worth around ~0.02BTC/year, hence i find your claim to raffle off a 297 BTC price to be unfair.
An other concern of mine is that you refuse to add extra security for the users: you will not use an escrow (not needed???) next to this, you will only give away your price with an estimated value of 0.02BTC IF (and only IF) you sell 297 thousand tickets... These are serious problems.


I have a couple of theories... I have no proof, so it's just my gut feeling combined with experience that generated these possible theories:

• The rookie mistake theory: You're really new, and you're mistakingly using BTC instead of satoshi's (you need 100000000 satoshi's for 1 bitcoin). You refuse to read my posts pointing out that the prices you say can not be correct
• The overly optimistic bluffing theory: You're bluffing... You know that the addspots are not worth the price you ask, but you hope to sell tickets for your raffle and buy traffic/backlinks, so that by the time you need to give away your price, the spot will actually be worth something
• The victim theory: you sold adspots, but were not yet payed. A scammer promised to pay you in the future, so you added his ads to your page. You now think the adslots have an actual value, but in reality the scammer will never pay you, he's just stealing your traffic
• The scammer theory: you're creating a website using a fake name, you pay only $10 for a domain name, and you try to scam people any way possible: by buying worthless addslots for thousands of dollars, by selling worthless raffle tickets (you may even not give the slot in the end) and by placing links to bitcoin doubler scams on your website while mooching traffic by engaging in discussion on bitcointalk
• The divine intervention theory: by some miracle, i'm wrong, and this website is pure gold... It's worth 1000 (pixels) * 1000 (pixels) * 0.02 (BTC per pixel) * 1232 (USD/BTC) =~ 24.5 million dollars (current preev rate)

For the sake of the community, please prove me wrong... I really hope my divine intervention theory is correct, and you have a wonderfull business and make millions of dollars without scamming anybody...

Now, please, start ignoring me, and i'll do the same to you

http://www.mocacinno.com/feecheck.php?txid=d542f98ae0868abdb09fc89f04e05c0fd38360cb6a7513aa2a52f533dcca8530

Both the problem and the possible sollutions can be found on my site (link i posted above this text)

I realise you didn't ask me to calculate anything, but in your original, unedited, post, i remember you asked for advice (don't remember the exact working tough, and you seem to have edited your OP)... So when you ask for advice, you can expect people to start digging around on how your business model, pricing, layout,... works... So when red flags are raised, i need to ask for clarification...
I also realise you apparently don't like to give proof/clarification/..., but to be honest, eventough it might be boring to give out these details, being transparent and clear, and answering legit concerns might benefit your standing within the bitcoin community, and eventually help you achieve your busines' goals.

luckily, i counted my money... So now i'm free to count yours

I was under the assumption that by "pixel", you actually meanth one of those 10 by 10 pixel squares... But wow, you actually mean you're asking 0.01 BTC =~ $12 (at current preev rate) for a PIXEL on a site with low traffic... Wow, just wow.
So, basically, that double your coins scammer is/was going to pay you 790 BTC for 180 months... That's ~4.4BTC/month for 15 years. I find this hard to believe, so it raises a red flag, it's up to you if you deem it worthy to give proof that this guy actually payed you, or if you want to ignore this question...

Anyways, i'm done with this thread... Good luck with your business.

I have non-default settings for my mempool, the transaction was still in mine, i'll PM you the raw, signed transaction.
IF you want to, you can re-broadcast the transaction, but i'd think twice before doing so, since it has a very low fee, so repairing your multibit HD might be an easyer thing to do!


http://www.mocacinno.com/feecheck.php?txid=29670dd96a131de02cf64dc531e814ab3c52b5b02a6138eb3765bc9a62b65c7a

looks like it's confirmed.

Next time, there are several things you can do to speed things up...

• my website mocacinno.com has a CPFP generator built-in to the (in) sufficient fee checker... Since you were the receiver, you could have attempted a CPFP
• you could have offered a bounty to Quickseller or macbook-air
• you could have used viabtc's accellerator (which you did)
• you could have waited, periodically rebroadcasting the raw, signed transaction
• you could have contacted the sender's support department. I haven't checked if the tx was opt-in RBF, but even if it wasn't the support dept could have double-spend the unconfirmed inputs to your transaction to create a new transaction with a higher fee (altough i doubt most support depts would go this far)

One pixel seem to cost 0.02BTC.
This add is (6 pixels x 84 pixels + 20 pixels) * 0.02 BTC = 10.48 BTC. (i hope i didn't make a mistake while counting the pixels)
This makes me suspicious... I find it very hard to believe that somebody would every pay 10.48 BTC to promote a scam doubler on a low traffic website.

Would it be possible to show payment's txids as proof? 10.48/60 = 0.17466666  BTC a month for 60 months...

Well, there are options...
https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/ and http://bip32.org/ should work, altough you do need the correct derivation paths.

If you know some python, you can actually write a script to do everything yourself.

An other option would be to use a BIP39/BIP44 compatible wallet and restore it with your written down seed words.

This being said, with the price of a nano s, i'd personally just buy a new one, and use the mnemonic to restore my wallets instead of messing around with other tools...

I don't own a trezor, but i do own a ledger... In a ledger, the seed isn't stored anywhere, and i can only assume the same goes for a trezor. It wouldn't be OK securitywise to save the seed anyways...

If you want to confirm if the seed is correct, you can alway initialize your trezor, write down the first generated address, wipe your trezor, re-initialise it from seed, check if the first generated address is the same as the initial first generated address... If the addresses match, you have successfully written down the seed.

I think there's some confusion, OP:
blockchain.info = a commercial company, NOT the owner of bitcoin
the blockchain = the technology used for the decentralised ledger used by bitcoin

you say you want to contact blockchain and let them reverse a transaction, but in reality, the blockchain isn't a company, and blockchain.info is unable to reverse a transaction. Offcourse, they can create a transaction with an output of an equal value as the value that has been stolen from you, but they'd be paying you back from their own pocket (very unlikely to happen).

I appreciate your honesty, and i'm not impying you're a scammer in any way... But i'm just pointing out what i think is obvious... Here's the translation into USD...
At current BTC rate 297 BTC = $353.500.
1 Ticket = 0.001 BTC = $1,190 (at current preev rate).

You're a member, you've been on this forum since ~5 months. You have no trust amongst the community, you have no feedback (neither negative, nor positive).

At this moment, you, a member without feedback, have developed a new website with low traffic volumes. In my personal opinion, the website looks like it's been developed in 1990 (but that's just my opinion) You're holding a raffle, selling 297.000 tickets worth $1,19/piece for a 1/297.000 chance of getting an adspot on this new website.
Once these 297.000 tickets are sold, you promise the winner of your raffle an adspot.
You assume that by then, an adspot will be worth $353.500.

Now, for the community, this means that we have to trust you in several ways:
- there is no guarantee that you'll actually give an adspot to anybody once the 297.000 tickets have been sold
- there is no guarantee that the spot will actually be worth the price of 2 houses in my village.

If you either fail to deliver the price, or the spot isn't worth nearly as much as you've anticipated, all participants would be scammed...

Now, as for suggestions on how to solve this problem, i have 2:
1) scale down the raffle... Prove without a doubt how much the adspot is actually worth by collecting testimonials of your customers, alexa ratings and google statistics. If a spot has a current value of, for example, 0.005BTC, sell 5 tickets woth 0.001BTC and give the winner the adspot. I'd even suggest escrowing some funds to cover potential losses in case you fail to deliver.
2) don't scale down the raffle, but bring in a trusted escrow to handle ALL finances. Also, stipulate very well-defined terms under which the escrow WILL refund everybody... For example: if the 297.000 tickets aren't sold in 1 year, everybody gets refunded. If the website doesn't reach at least 100k unique, high quality visitors/day by the time the tickets are sold, everybody gets refunded.

No offence, but other than that, i don't see this working... Once again, i'm not branding you as a scammer, i just think that at this point, holding a $353.500 raffle with your current trust ratings and website status is a bit unrealistic.

So basically, the price isnt 297 BTC, the price is an adspot on your website...
Do you have any proof a spot on your site would be worth $300.000? That's a lot of money you're talking about, without decent statistics, it would be very hard to belief an adspot would be worth that much...

So, my suggestion for you would be to show some alexa rankings, install google statistics and proof to the forum that the price is actually woth 297BTC, even then, i don't know if many people would trust you enough to buy a ticket, but it would be a start.
