Btc transaction not verified after 3 days

[coinhelper]

I sent a Bitcoin transaction of 8.5 btc 3 days and 8 hours ago with a fee of 0.0001 btc and it still does not have a single confirmation. I tested sending a few smaller transactions since then and they got confirmed shortly after.
Is it normal to take so long and is there any way to speed up the process?

Go To: blockchain.info/address/"youraddress" (replacing "youraddress" with the address you used to send the transaction or the receiving address)
If the transaction doesn't appear then it may be beneficcial to know where you sent it from (what application or service) and you may want to contact one fo the bitcoin developers which are on this forum and are marked on the forum as a bitcoin developer. The only thing that I can think is because it is a high amount, the network may want to get many confirmatoion first, but it should still show iwth a pendig message next to it. Why not post the transaction ID or the address in the OP too to help people understand your problem?

Please dont do this here.

Sorry! Forgot to read past the OP until I posted!
Do What? Give a recommendation? Or the typos?

Please don't post before reading the rest of the thread. It is highly likely that whatever you are going to say has already been said. So general rule of thumb to avoid spamming this forum is to read the whole thread before answering the question in the OP, and only post if you have something to add, and are not repeating anything.

I just checked mails and found a wallet.dat from Joopii in one of them.

Bitcoin core saw 5 conflicted/unconfirmed TX.

zapwallettxes removed all, here is the partial log, will send the full log file with all transactions IDs along with the wallet.dat back to OP.

I know you promissed a reward, but dont feel you have to. I would have done the same with or without it. If you feel a tip is needed, use the address in my profile.
