I just accelerated your transaction, it should get confirmed within 24 hours.

It does kind of depend on his Bitcoin wallet because there’s a few Bitcoin clients that don’t allow people to set a manual fee for their transactions. MultiBit is one of those type of wallets.


OP, since you are using Bitcoin Core then you did the right thing by sending Bitcoin with a small transaction fee because you shouldn’t need to spend a bunch of money to send a transaction unless you gotta have the money within 4 hours or so.

Hey! Thanks!

Here is the problem that happened.
I ordered a 26USD amazon egift card from egifter. Egifter showed and stated to send Total amount: what ever it was and send Total Fee Amount.

I did as instructed then got an invoice msg stating I needed to send additional fee and I didn't have it, voiding the invoice.

So the transaction got stuck.
I could not send the additional fee as I did not have it because I was under the impression of sending what they asked and I did just that then I got the below image captured.


Now when you goto the invoice link

They said 2 days for refund, well because of egifter I got screwed "BTC Stuck".

huh?

Its bitcoin client local wallet.

It doesn't get returned, as long as it's not rebroadcasted it gets dropped and forgotten.
Transactions stay in the mempool about 3 days, but your wallet or someone reading your thread can rebroadcast it for you.

Telling your wallet to not rebroadcast is a different matter.
If you are using core, google zapwallettxes.

I tried -zapwallettxes and it worked but the btc disappeared out of the wallet again, I tried -zapwallettxes a few times, and block chain explorer still shows unconfirmed.

[HITTI2]

See? This is after I zap.


Then when block chain catches up, it disappears.

[HITTI2]

See?
Look what happened.

There is no cancel button.   zapwallettxes should stop the wallet from rebroadcasting.   It will not force worldwide node's mempool to forget (including blockchain.info).  There is still a good chance it can still be recorded onto the blockchain (very good with tx acceleration done to it).    You'll need to wait it out to see what happens and deal with in in a few more days.

I have a theory in place. I am -zapwallettxes the wallet, I blocked the bitcoin client with my firewall. In the morning it will have 12 hours to catch up to the blockchain, takes 2 minutes or so to do so.

Before I unblock it while the BTC is still in my wallet, I am going to create a 25.40USD egift card invoice, copy the amount & sending address and paste int eh fields sending box of BTC client, slide the fee as low as possible and unblock the client hit send, double spend it and see if it goes through before it gets sent out.

:/

All I can think of.

Because from what I read the BTC is in my wallet and not actually in the blockchain itself.

Then you've gotten your information wrongly. Your transactions are recorded on the blockchain, not on your wallet. Your wallet only stores the key to your address.

It makes no sense to do what you are planning to do. Zapwallettxes removes the transaction. If it doesn't confirm within several days, theres a high chance that it would get dropped if no one else rebroadcasts it. This is what you should do.
1. Use zapwallettxes
2. Wait for several days till you cannot find the transaction on blockexplorers.
3. Spend the coins with a higher fee per byte.

You're welcome.

It looks like the transaction has 16 confirmations now (there is only one 26.xx USD transaction that is visible within the recent transaction list so I think that is the one you are writing about).

It’s a good thing that you aren’t using a Bitcoin wallet that is on a website because those Bitcoins would’ve been lost because of there is no direct access the client.

It’s weird that BitPay does not allow people to send Bitcoin twice to the same address.

Yes! Yea, I've been using bitcoin client since 2011 same wallet as well. the ending with m9 wallet.

Well worth keeping 127GB blockchain on the HDD otherwise like you said I would have lost em. I was taught by the best not to use online wallet systems. Atm I do have one online wallet system going on and thats nicehash because of fee's but I'm done with BTC after this last transaction "fee's are just to high and I have been going through this unconfirmed confirmation 3 different times now within 2-3 weeks".

Well, I did have a chance to send additional BTC but I didn't have the BTC to send, chunk change. I had 12 minutes to send the additional chunk change. I didn't have it, I asked here for someone to loan it to me for 30 minutes as I was having an incoming 3 bucks in BTC from selling burstcoin, didn't make it in time, so here I was "stuck btc". Scammers ruined the loan thing so I don't blame anyone not helping in the small chunk change loan and considering how much it would have cost to send chunk change as well.

No one helped like you did. It's a rarity around here nowadays.

I think you accelerating the btc did it. And I am grateful for it.

[HITTI2]

[HITTI2]

Damn...

I had to send fee twice again but this time I had the BTC, I think LOL. My balance says zero. https://blockchain.info/address/12NcNYb2oEh6ANo95AakEjPqQdgbcxh4m9 But do have 0.00013327 BTC in my wallet. Markets bitstamp says 30 cents. $2263*0.00013327 BTC

I can't accelerate.

I can't accelerate.

It's not meant for casual use.  
Visit sites like these:

• https://bitcoinfees.21.co/
  
• https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#2w

and use the right fee.

You have a small window (minutes or seconds) at the beginning of every hour to compete with everyone for the limited slots.

Like I stated before and seen in the PICTURE "screenshot" I sent the fee egifter asked for, then sent another payment with another fee to pay the second fee, so I payed 3 fee's? for two transactions.

I jsut wanted to try and accelerate the transaction which I don;t know how Winner did it.
