Hi, sorry if this is a bad question I'm new to this. I tried to move BTC from one blockchain wallet to another I owned. I then tried to buy something but used the wrong wallet and the last transaction had not been confirmed. It's now been 5 hours and still no confirmation. It's also working on 1 node at 0%. How long will my BTCs be stuck in limbo? Is there anything I can do to speed up this process?

Thanks

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.

I guess this is an accidental double spend? This was definitely a mistake and it seems to be getting pushed back in the queue further and further. This won't be stuck in limbo forever, right? Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated

If you have the transaction ID or the two public addresses, someone can take a look.

The usual reason for a delay is not paying an adequate fee.  Also, I've noticed lately that transactions with no fee take longer regardless of size or age.

According to blockchain.info, that transaction is confirmed: https://blockchain.info/tx/ca3a7cc277d2f90bfbf0499e97939615d1d084989bf3e2fd2abf53a2cac1fca5
