Bitcoin Transaction Stuck!

[TObject]

Oh man, this keeps getting me.

I am just unable to estimate transaction fees correctly. I ether overpay or underpay.

I do use the bitcoinfees website for help. But I am having the worst luck in accuracy of low long it would take my transactions to confirm.

I think the other day there were a couple hundred of transactions kind of stuck, or just going through really slowly. So maybe just wait for little bit longer and see if it sorts it self out.

[TObject]

A couple hundred? You mean a couple hundred thousands, maybe? LOL

Two days ago, the amount of unconfirmed transactions are more than 100k. This seems to be the reason why most txs are stuck and normally you only send money after it has gone down to 90k+, then you ought to pay a reasonable fee to make sure it will get confirmed sooner.

I guess this is why BCH will become #1, right?!

[Adrazan]

I don't think it's really advisable to send bitcoin now due to superb crazy charges imagine someone sending $5 with charging fee of $10, it doesn't sound good I will advise you suspend sending bitcoin now unless one is transacting larger amount

My bitcoin transaction has been stuck for more than 12 hours now : https://blockchain.info/tx/1f15ef9777583192ae469a961f63d2d9be57d0d7524740ab7eb10206efd75e0a

Whats the best option? There is not enough BTC so i can't double spend. I have permission of receiver to withdraw funds if required because the receiver is still waiting for 1 confirmation.

The fee is looking good, so don't worry, it will get confirmed in the blockchain eventually. It says 110.324 sat/B, that's a good one to take confirmation from the miners, I think.

4 days ago mine was 80 sat/B and I waited 3 days for it.

You paid only $2,50 for the fees of that transaction, this is so far less than the average for transactions to get confirmed at the moment. it is not going to get confirmed if you dont ask for help on the service section on this forum, or at least, if you are not a miner, you are not going to be able to proccess that transaction as soon as possible. Better to put more than five dollars per transaction, otherwise, they will get stuck for more than ten hours, just like it happened now with yours.
Be careful with that
.

now the transaction fee is very high and make a lot of transactions that jammed is very influential on us,
may be very high cost.
although I strongly objected.
but how else is this is the fact that we have to keep adding transaction costs so that no transactions are stuck

Congratulations your transaction is now confirmed it has 6 confirmations now. After the long wait of 12 hours you paid good for that transaction and it's worth it. I'm also waiting for my transaction since the problem is that I only paid a very tiny fee, adjusting the fee will help us to remove those stuck transaction of ours.

4 days ago mine was 80 sat/B and I waited 3 days for it.

I have now an idea on how long I had to wait for my transaction to get confirmed. 

[TObject]

Somebody who is good with math should come up with an algorithm that predicts confirmation time based on real time data.

24-hr average, or whatever we have now, is nowhere accurate, unless your goal for a transaction is to confirm in 24 hours. And I am taking a wild guess that most people want their transactions confirmed sooner.

It wold also be nice if all transactions were cheap and quick, but I guess that is too much to ask for.

[X2PR8888]

Yes. You really have to eait it out otherwise, contact the seller.

[chichigirl]

Yes because someone to flooded the blockchain with garbage transactions. It might be people behind BCH,  the number contender coin of Bitcoin BTC.

Just go to the service section and ask some of those guys who are accelerating the tx to accelerate yours, but it will cost you a few bucks.you need to pay more fees if you want your transaction to go through smoothly.

[cjinny]

Currently my bitcoin transaction is stuck, and I just wait for time. Because I get advice from friends to be patient. I actually can not stand it, because I will use bitcoin as the cost of living.

[SMB-2525]

Mine is in day 3.
I only bid 90 satoshi per byte which is apparently not enough to move it.
I cannot up the fee because the source wallet is empty.
the backlog stays at 90K transactions.
God knows when mine will clear.

At least I understand a lot more about transaction costs.

[SupportBitcoin]

I've been seeing it take 24 hous to confirm as of late. Just be patient. Bitcoin will get caught back up!

[Pleione527]

Many encounter this kind of system problem even I is waiting for my transaction to be processed I guess we cannot do anything but to patiently wait. Last day I made a transaction and the fee really sucks though I get to finished the transaction on a timely basis still the burden of transaction fee stress me especially that the amount can really help me a lot if was use for my personal expenses instead of these fees.

[SMB-2525]

The recommended fee is 500 satoshi per byte which, for this transaction, is almost  2% of the transaction amount.
My problem is I am consolidating mining income into a new wallet. So there are a lot of small keys in the source wallet that make this a large transaction.
I did not understand this on the the consolidation from my other wallet.

The one that is sitting unconfirmed is almost 16K bytes.

Average confirmation time is down to 200 minutes

I'm at 3,000 plus

[phutakami]

More and more transactions are being stopped as more and more transactions are made and increased daily. I have encountered this and I have to wait 14 days for 1 confirm transaction.

[Laya Varghese]

If you want to have your transaction confirmed faster, the obvious solution is to include a higher fee.
Check if your wallet includes dynamic fees
