From what I see, the transaction is 373 bytes and he paid about 35 satoshi / byte. If you look here https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx you'll see you are not the only one waiting. Basically the ones paying more satoshi/byte will get their transactions processed sooner. If you were in a hurry, you should have paid some more.

It is suggested that you should send atleast 80 satoshi/byte as fee https://bitcoinfees.21.coIn your case with 373 0.003 btc should be enough. Your transaction will soon be confirmed just wait longer.

Yes, you're right, I didn't chose well some words there. Take a look at that website. Right now, it claims that best rate NOW is 90 satoshi / byte. But that can change in better or worse in the next minutes or hours. Keep the link I gave you. Next time you or your friend sends Bitcoin, check the recommended fees there and also the size of the mempool. Now the mempool is big, meaning that the network got a huge number of transactions lately (in the last 16h). There use to be better days too, when 35 satoshi is more than enough for the transaction to be confirmed within an hour or two.

Which one is for you? 0.0000691 BTC or 1.2048 BTC? If it's the first one, it's less than the fee so you can't really use it for anything. If it's the other, I don't really get why the sender kept that small change. It could just as well be added to the fee. In your case with 373 0.003 btc should be enough.
You missed a zero there: 0.0003 BTC should be enough for very fast confirmation.

https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ can give you an estimate. At 35 sat/byte the estimate is 20 to 960 minutes. That's up to 16 hours, but it's not a guarantee.

The estimate went up to 21 hours. It will most likely get there. Or the sender can choose to do a double spend with a higher fee, which is a bit more work than just waiting.

You keep saying things about "blockchain fees" and he is using "blockchain". All bitcoin uses the blockchain, so that is not a meaningful statement. Likewise, the block chain doesn't recommend fees. Are you talking about bitcoin core' s recommended fees or blockchain.info or something else?

Export the private key, import it in another wallet, and send another transaction. I've only done it with Bitcoin Core. I'm not sure if you can do this with - say - Electrum, I don't know if Electrum would pick up on the existing transaction in mempool. He can always try it. Needless to say: be careful with private keys!

Id strongly discourage to double spend this transaction. There are more transaction that depend on this one getting confirmed. A double-spend would make them all invalid and might cause further issues for others. - snip -
I strongly ENCOURAGE to double spend this transaction if you are capable. Doing so will teach others a very important lesson about spending bitcoins that haven't confirmed yet.
