Stuck transaction using core 15.01

[sngwinner]

I'm hoping someone can help. I haven't performed a BTC transaction using core in over two years and I used the default fee like an idiot. I didn't do my multiplication right when looking at suggested fees and actually thought I was paying a high fee.

I've tried waiting for about 4 days and it still hasn't gone through. I'm a little worried about trying a replacement fee transaction and I haven't been able to get this approved on the via BTC accelerator. Can anyone offer any help?  I'm starting to understand this fee issue everyone has been talking about for a couple months.

I submitted your transaction to AntPool's free accelerator service, hopefully they will include your transaction once they find a block or two. Tho 20sats/byte as miners fee is really low nowadays, this should get fixed asap :/

Your transaction will be confirmed in 3-5 days

I'm a little worried about trying a replacement fee transaction ...

it's not opt-in RBF, so you can't do RBF transaction on it
just abandon your transaction and try re-send again with higher fee

Is this 3-5 days from now or the transaction?  What is this range based on?

Are there any risks associated with abandoning the transaction?

I'm bumping so I can hopefully get some advice on Child Pays for Parent.  The transaction:

6dd64abfba3962f90d9db87756672473fed3dc8a3e347159e669332d1dc14585

I sent these from my core wallet to my ledger nano S.  If I just make a transaction with my ledger nano S with a high enough fee spending the coins back to myself will this make the original transaction confirm as well as my new transaction?  What fee is recommended to ensure that this works?

no, there is no risk because all inputs are owned by you in your bitcoin core wallet, right?
just abandon it and create new tx, enable coin control so you can choose your inputs/utxo
remove this from your tx 17tesohn7oTVWt6XLM1uYN3Uo6hCUWpRX9 (0.00000001 BTC - Output)
that input just a waste to be included, its 1 sat and there are a few other inputs in the range 0.0001 - 0.0005
the cost sending them is higher than the amount itself
for eg. 1 utxo is 148 byte, with network fee 300 s/B it's going to cost you 44400 s/utxo
so with a fee rate of 300 s/B, anything below 45000 sats would just be a burden to your tx

Right they're all owned by me.  So I abandon and then send everything but the addresses with 0.0001-0.0005.  I used an accelerator that appears to be broadcasting the transaction over and over again.  Would that cause a problem?  Would a Child pays for parent transaction be better?

CPFP would seem be easier for you, as long as you can set custom fee sending from your ledger
if you're going to do that and I assume fee won't burden you, set your fee base on a few data:
new tx from ledger to core is 1 input to 1 output =~ 250 bytes and current network fee~550 s/B
then 3733 + 250 =~ 4000 bytes * 550 =~ 2200000 sats - 74840 sats =~ 2125160 sats
so you must set your fee on CPFP tx as much as 0.02125 BTC ... quite expensive for me if you ask
btw, can you just send the fund from ledger to itself? I'm not familiar on how a ledger works.
I assume you want to store it back in your ledger, it would save on fees to do it directly if possible

Thanks Thirdspace.  I think this is going to be the route I need to go.  Sucks that its an expensive fee but it is what it is.

Try this Sir https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/pay/?txid=6dd64abfba3962f90d9db87756672473fed3dc8a3e347159e669332d1dc14585

I've tried viabtc's free service and I couldn't get my transaction in the queue.  The fee they are asking for the paid is equivalent to $500 when a child pays for parent would be $300 so I think I'll try that.  Having some difficulty with that though.

[KopikoBrown]

If i added your transaction on the queue just give me a tip email me thanks

you can try gamble with lower rate ~300s/B which tone down to 0.0112 BTC
with hope it will get picked up by miners in the weekend when the network fee usually drop (I heard)
I will also try add it to viabtc, if the timing is perfect and the tx gets queued,
there's a chance it gets confirmed but I can't promise you anything.

i figured an extra person will increase the odds at viabtc for you, so i gave it a couple of tries and got through on this last hour.
