I see that the fees here are too low tho: 0.00000226 BTC..
Besides,for your other transaction sent today, this is also true

Based on shorena's node, the mempool size is relatively big right now, [ img]http://213.165.91.169/pic/mempool24h_v2.png[/img] Most of the recent blocks are quite big as well.
I used Bitcoin-QT wallet and set the fee through there, setting it on "fast" which was the highest setting available. Never really used manual fee setting, but as I understand the network is on overflow at the moment.
Most of the time the fastest setting is actually not the best. Open bitcoin core, let it run for a while and see for yourself. Currently I have
fastest - fee: 0.00001 btc/kb (Smart fee not initialized yet. This usually takes a few blocks...)
1 lower - fee: 0.00019988 btc/kb Estimated to begin confirmation within 2 blocks.
lowest - fee: 0.00007789 btc/kb
As you can see the 2nd fastest option is 20 times higher than the fastest. Even the lowest setting is higher than the fastest. It matches your TX perfectly (fee in satoshi = size in bytes). The TX itself is fine, its just that there are so many transactions that bitcoin core cant determine how high a fee should be for your transaction to be in the next block. Since it cant work out a value it falls back to the default fee. Sadly, this is currently too low. Im afraid you have to wait a bit. Keep bitcoin core open it will rebroadcast your transaction to make sure the network does not forget about it. You send spend a relativly high amount (~0.44 btc) chances are you will get a confirmation within the next 1-2 days. This is because higher value inputs get higher priority over time.
Thanks for the info, sadly still not through, but I guess i'll have to be patient.
