Thanks for the advice guys,

I got a email last night from Blockchain, they said :

"

A transaction made through Blockchain.info has been removed from our database because it was taking a long time to be included in a block.

Any funds have been returned to your wallet and you can now spend the coins again. Please consider including a larger fee in future transactions.

"

Thank you for all your help, i guess i just wasn't patient enough

Hi,
I have a problem sending a small amount of 2P to another of my accounts. I paid the transaction fee of 2P also, so what is the problem ??

I know people are going to say be patient, but it has been 3 days, whats happening here?

Here is a screen shot:

Thanks !

I see what you mean, I'm probably only going to have £100 max ever in my account, i don't plan on moving around my bitcoins to keep them safe, i just want them there for when i want to spend them say 5 - 10£ here and there .... and then when i feel like it or the rate is low then i will top up my BTC by another £50 or so.

Realistically is there much of a chance of something bad happening ??

Sounds like a plan 

Great advice guys, love the idea of a hardware wallet.

I think i will make an online paper wallet, currently i have less than £5 spread between them so i won't bother, i plan to buy more soon so will make a proper paper wallet then.

Out of interest where do you all get your BTC from, is it by Coinbase ?

Thanks for the device, I understand that i should have disconnected myself from the web to make the paper wallet.

Really though are the chances really low, i can't see there being much risk. I can only ever see myself having a few hundred saved in BTC ?

How would i make a paper wallet locally, do you mean guessing the address yourself, i can't see this working....

In general though, do people use bitaddress.org is it untrustworthy ?

Regarding security and storing BTC for a long time, is my method safe ?

I have printed 10 paper wallets from bitaddress.org and deposited a small amount in each one. I have added the public key of all 10 addresses to my blockchain.info account as (Watch Only) just so i can see the balance of all paper wallets combined, I have then locked up the paper wallets in my safe...... is this a recommended way to store BTC ?

I'm not worried about some security factors such as "someone stealing safe" - "house burning down" - "printer storing print in memory", using my method is it impossible to have my BTC stollen ?

I recently have got in to bitcoin just out of pure interest for cryptocurrencies and learning the mining, buying, selling concept. I have a few questions for anyone who can answer and give advice. 

I have made several trades between accounts of small amounts around 0.001 BTC and i have never had a problem, the transaction seems to complete and get confirmed within 10 mins.

However i tried to make a transaction between 2 of my accounts, 0.002 and for some reason it has been unconfirmed for some time around 30+ hours, I know people are going to say be patient and wait however i would just like to know the reason behind it, I'm not worried about the 20p worth of bitcoin I'm just curious.

Here is my address of the unconfirmed transaction : 15K4F2EhHCEBQ81jx3W2gQanmoojdDFVGm

Also is it correct in saying that when an account has a unconfirmed transaction sent from it, then you can not send or receive any more ? is this why people split up BTC between different accounts ?
