Need HELP

[kzj32jaka]

Good morning All who read this and attempts to help me out I've had a LBC account for ages I usually transfer from there to the site wallet but the last time I almost missed the timer to have coins transfer but luckily someone from that support site was able to help and told me that I should use electrum because it would be able to register in a minute to five minutes. So i kept that in mind when I bought more Bitcoins on my LBC account I transferred them to the my electrum wallet  the mining fee was .00005 and the transfer amount was 0.3636 it was $2399. after the mining fee. I see on my electrum wallet that it's unconfirmed transaction but when I go to the blockchain I do see the transaction, does anyone know how long it would stay unconfirmed for? Any assistance would be helpful.











Sincerely, Kzj

does anyone know how long it would stay unconfirmed for?

This depends on the amount of transactions paying a higher fee (sat / B) than you do and on the amount of blocks being generated in a specific timeframe.
You can check your transaction in the block explorer for the fee rate (in sat/B, not the overall fee in sat) and then visit https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,24h to check the mempool and the currently recommended fees.

Once the mempool is empty enough for your transaction being lucrative enough for the miner, it will be included into a block.

Can you paste TXID here? Me and another people can't take a look for it if you don't give TXID.
Basically, it will confirmed but its just take a long time because fee is probably too low for your transaction. Just wait it.

Does it say it is confirmed on blockchain.info? Or are you saying that you can see the transaction there and it is also unconfirmed?

There was a sharp uptick in the number of unconfirmed transactions in the last 24 hours... but it has since dropped off again:

Your transaction has probably been confirmed as I type this. If it hasn't post up the transactionID and we can investigate.

I'll double check when I get home, but with the transaction Id  how would I get that for you?

How would I get the TXID for you?

How would I get the TXID for you?

Go to your Electrum client > History and find your unconfirmed transaction. Right click the transaction, press detail and copy the Transaction ID line in the popup window. Paste it here for us, if you don't mind a slight loss of privacy.

So now I'm having an error I do see the unconfirmed transaction but when I go click the details nothing pops up but when i go to view on block explorer the window pops up with a list of transactions and I see mine on block explorer but when i click details no windows pops up or anything of that nature. I'm able to edit the description of the unconfirmed transaction but for some odd reason the detail page will not come up. I have an option above details saying copy id on clipboard is this the TXID you want me to get for you?

Hey just arrived home and it still said it is unconfirmed i'm trying to get the details for you guys but every time I right clicked my transaction the details page doesn't pop up i can edit the description I can view it on block explorer for some odd reason. I can copy ID on a clipboard would that help?

So your saying since my mining fee is low anyone that has a higher mining fee will have their transaction done before mine? I've been waiting for almost 72 hrs for this to confirm not sure what my option are.

when you check the transaction on a block explorer like blockchain.info does it show your tx as confirmed? if no then what the 3 first comments said but if yes then what Electrum version are you using? if it is not the latest (3.1.3) then upgrade because that is your problem, there was a bug in old versions that was fixed a while ago.

if you have latest version and your transaction is confirmed when you check it on a block explorer then check your connectivity to make sure your Electrum is connected and able to download the latest block headers. go to your Tools > Network and you should see the nodes you are connected to and see the number in front of blockchain be this number

This should be the the Tx ID, paste it here so we can check it in blockexplorers ourselves.
Take note: it's safe to share the TXID, it's just like a receipt of an ATM machine (privacy-related, not security).
or just the underlined part of the blockexplorer link or the url itself:


You may include your Electrum's version and the site where you'd downloaded it.

Yes, you really need to update your Electrum.
Your Electrum was totally outdated, even an earlier versions like 2.8 may find it hard to sync to any server.

Just make sure to download from the official site which is https://electrum.org/#download

I don't have the most recent one I have 2.6.4 you think that would be the issue. Just want to double check to make sure I would be downloading the update on the right website it would be electrum.org correct?
