Is viabtc transaction accelerator really working?

[no1dead]

It is really working, I tried it once, you will get your transaction confirmed when they find a new block, and be sure you really submitted the transaction id and recaptcha, you need to be first 100 submits in every hour, so you had better input the info in the first minute of every clock.

Hi, I find viabtc transaction accelerator in the forum, I entered my txid in the first minute. Should be the top 100 input in the hour, but after 45 minutes, my transaction is still not accelerated. Do you use it and is it really working?

It does. Basically they just include your transaction on the next block they mine you it will have a higher chance of getting confirmed sooner than just leaving it and get found by some miner.

Yep, it works, but you have to be in the first 100 submitted transactions every hour..
I'm trying, but everytime i get message that limit is exceeded.
Do anyone know when the timer is resetting? Is it full hour?

I think so.
after encountering warning message, I will submit in the next hour and will be sucessful.

You should not have stuck transactions if you use a wallet that has good dynamic fees like Electrum. Just set the fee slider to high.

And this is the problem with Bitcoin... having to use a "high" fee setting, and that seeming to be acceptable.

I like accelerators more than segwit, lightning network or any of the other proposed fixes for unconfirmed transactions.

Some wire transfers charge $50 or more in fees.

Those who claim 50 cent in bitcoin transactions is a "major problem", don't appear to have used wire transfers much.

I have a small incoming transaction that has not confirmed in 11 hours.  So I gave ViaBTC's service a shot to speed up my confirmation.  I put in the trx no. and they informed me that the limit was exceeded (greater than 100 / hour).  I read something elsewhere that suggested that the hour might start "on the hour", so I tried again at some 30 seconds after 11:00 PM US ET.

"Acceleration succeeded"

Now I am waiting on the next block to see if it really did...

[mobnepal]

Yes it is working but most of the time they remain full of transactions. If you got lucky and get your transaction included than it should get confirmed in the next block that will be mined by VIABTC.

This type of accelerators can't be a permanent solution we need to get segwit activated to solve this block size issue.

Not only wire transfers the one who have used paypal, skrill etc before can understand the pain and fees they have to tackle. Bitcoin is ultimate payment solution.

I only used their accelerator once and found it to be working good. My transaction was unconfirmed for around three to six hours and so I searched for way to accelerate Bitcoin transaction. I then found out about ViaBTC transaction accelerator and used it. The transaction got confirmed pretty fast. I am not entirely sure if it is because of luck or ViaBTC. However chances are that it is because of ViaBTC.

[keyscore44]

Still works, but not as good as when it was launched because too many people use it and we know that block size is too small
The best solution are increasing fee in transaction or re-broadcast transaction if necessary.

I think that it is not about transaction fee. Probably more important is time of submitting. There is limit of 100 submits per hour, so in my opinion the most important is get there straight after limit restart. But I can not find information when they make this restart. Maybe it is every full hour...?

the accelerator has proved to be a handy tool judging from the congestion we all run into trying to get our transactions confirmed faster, why not share this with other mining pools to avoid backlogs or go for a bigger blocksize.

It works but you must be quick when submitting your transaction id cause the 100 submits per hour limit is very low, and within a minute all the slots are filled.
Also according to their site 'users can submit any TXID that includes a minimum 0.0001BTC/KB fee to ViaBTC' has anyone tried to accelerate any transaction with a fee lower than this?

[bL4nkcode]

When I'm trying to make a transaction after the transaction ID made I always use this accelerator, but there are sometimes that the transaction are stock with in 1-2 hours but mostly it confirms within 30 minutes after I use this accelarator.

does it work with electrum?  I pay around 0.55 fee to send using electrum now.  Back then the fee was 15 cents and less etc on electrum.  I dont need the btc to be sent that quickly so i ask about this.

[shield132]

Yes, they really work and there is nothing to doubt in transaction accelerators because they include your transaction in blocks they mine. For example, I had transaction with 0 confirmation for 10 hours and after I entered my transaction on viabtc website, after 2 hour my transaction had 4 confirm. I doubt confirmation was because of viabtc.

That bolded line seems to contradict with the rest of your post, as you are saying that it works and then doubting that it works. There's an easy way to check if your transaction was confirmed by ViaBTC though. Use a blockchain explorer that shows what block the tx was mined in (ie blocktrail), find the block and see what the coinbase signature shows to find out which pool confirmed it.

Maybe it's only a typo or maybe that's what he want to say.

I tried to check those transactions I made that I used viaBTC accelerator and its true that some of them relayed by viaBTC.

Thanks for the info BTW  I didn't know also how accelarator works I just use them believing that my TX will be confirm faster, I mean on how to confirm(by myself) that it was pushed/confirmed by those accelerator on the network.

This accelerator is presented by viabtc to increase support for bitcoin unlimited but it doesn't seem this have increased support for BTU  

Actually viabtc own a large mining farm and when you will put your tx id in their accelerator they will save it in their database and they will prioritize your tx in top of every other tx to be included in block they will mine next.

Well I just test-fired the accelerator 3 minutes ago for a small unconfirmed trx (a payment) from about 9 hours ago.  

"Acceleration succeeded"

Now I will see how long it takes from here.  Last time I used the service it took about two hours to confirm.
