Hi,
I have a problem with a transaction.
I´ve lowered the transaction fee manually to 120/KB and after I had done the transaction there is a triangle with an exclamation mark in the list of transactions. 
Behind it there is the word "replacable". What does that mean?
When I click the transaction I can read the transaction time is 25 blocks. What can I do?
Thank You.
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Replaceable means that the transaction conforms to BIP 125 and can be replaced by a transaction which spends the same inputs but includes a higher transaction fee.

Thank you for the answer.
Does that mean that the transaction will be executed later or do I have to raise the fee? I could do that. The Elektrum wallet allows to that.
What is the best thing to do? But not do the same transaction again, right?

The transaction will confirm eventually, you do not need to do anything. If you think the transaction is taking too long to confirm, you can increase the fee.
