Can anyone help me cancel a transaction or run a "double spend" on it so it isn't rejected by the node as it has been before.  I sent bit before my bit was confirmed.  Its now stuck in limbo.  It goes from unconfirmed to unconfirmed parent and back.  I attempted to buy more bit, send it to electrum, and send it as well.  I waited for the received transaction to get 4 confirmations and tried to send.  It is not confirming as well.  Any solution would be great. 

I attempted to sweep the keys, but when I enter my private keys the sweep tab does not allow action. 

first transaction was made about 55 hrs ago
TXID:  d51fa05986a0f2615e1f001172e26e6158898eb7559a0b1c7218a3966b19b131

Thanks,
The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

Thanks,

I've ran this transaction through Via's accelerator so it should likely confirm within the next hour or two when Via gets their next block.

Thank you!

I have another that may self correct when this one goes through, but it may stay in limbo.

It looks like the first already confirmed  Grin. The new transaction has fees of 100 sat/byte which is better but it looks like miners want 180-200 sat/byte for the quickest confirms.

I've ran this transaction through the accelerator as well to help speed up the process for you.

Electrum has an option to enable dynamic fees, you should set the slider to high. You can't count on the ViaBTC accelerator to fix your mistakes.

Perfect!  Thanks!  I turned fee slider up to the max on electrum.  One may think that would be large enough.  

I switched it to dynamic so i should be good in the future.  thanks again

No problem. Electrum does a very good job of estimating fees so you get confirmed quickly without spending too much.
