you can submit the transaction hash to a transaction accelerator (they're free). Quoting myself from the other day,
~Snipped~
Not all of them are free. Only
ViaBTC and
AntPool are "real" accelerators that happen to be free.
- The former has a paid version as well.
- BTW, #4 on that list is a scam.Quoting myself from the other day
That is a bad list of accelerators.
Number 2 charges absolutely ridiculous prices, in the region of 50x higher than necessary if you just did a CPFP transaction yourself.
Number 3 requires you to import your seed phrase to their software, which is always high risk.
Number 4 is an outright scam.
The only one on there worth anything is ViaBTC's accelerator.
Oof... My bad, I had used ViaBTC but didn't want to seem biased towards them or anything so I just posted the list I found when searching.
Worked well in my case since:
1. My wallet had RBF disabled (not sure why??).
2. I sent the funds to cold storage and so there wouldn't be a child transaction paying for the parent (which was stuck in the mempool) for quite a while.
It's a good idea to submit to multiple accelerators, since it'll increase the probability that your transaction will be part of the next block!
Unfortunately, most of the other free accelerators out there are just broadcasting services pretending to be accelerators...
- Fishing for tips and giving false hopes.Another great example as to why it's so important to DYOR, thanks for bringing this up!
