There has been s much strain on the ethereum network causing an increase in transaction fees and delays in transactions.Why so much delays,my transaction has been stuck for over 6 hours now.

If you have noticed then you will see the prices of Gwei has been risen a lot since week now. This is all because of the network congestion. Now at the time of your transaction the Gwei might have been set to default price of 41 Gwei but the actual required or safe Gwei might have been more than that. It means you paid less fees and thus your block will confirmed after very long period of time. You can check the Gwei current prices, safe Gwei limit to set at the time of your transaction here : https://ethgasstation.info

It has been caused by a spike in tranfers of Tokens that are trying to get listed on FCoin. To get listed on FCoin you need users to vote for you by transferring a single Token to FCoin. You may have also noticed a whole bunch of Tokens have arrived in your account recently that you never asked for. This Token Spam is caused by companies trying to get more people to vote for them. I have been reporting the Tokens that are Token Spamming to etherscan so that they will be marked as spam to try and discourage this behaviour. Etherscan told me if they get multiple complaints they will take action.

The delay is big because you set a small value for GAS or GWEI. Do not be greedy and do not change the recommended values.

This is because so many project use their network to write smart contract and run ICO, currently Ethereum only possible to process about 20 transaction persecond, but the team founder Vitalik Buterin already has plan to increase scalability of Ethereum by plasma and sharding which will possible to proccess amillion transaction persecond. And we should be wait and give support for this continue development of ETH to be much better.

I don't worry about delays because they are not significant for me. The more important role for me plays security and reliability so time is not the key-aspect.

There was a similar delay in the transactions in the December of Last Year due to cryptokitties. As other members have pointed out, it's most probably due to the Fcoin exchange and it's airdrop issues. Due to the high amount of spamming with airdrop coins this clogging of the network took place which further increased the transaction fees very high. The transaction fees rose from 0.01$ up-to 1$ per eth transactions. There was a problem with the miners due to the high amount of transactions which were to be processed but less block limit.
This clogging up or the increase in the number of transactions made the miners to accept only transactions which has higher fees. Due to this incident, the transactions which had lesser value were stored in the mempool and processed later.

I’m not sure why a lot of people complain about this When your transaction does not go through All you have to do is simply increase your gas and gwei and have a faster experience with Etherum
It’s the best platform with a cheap sending fee

You have to make sure that you have checked in gasstation first before committing to a gas price. You don´t give much information about the params of your Tx so we can´t really say anything useful.

This problem is very actual for me and I am disappointed with these cases. I see delays not so often but there always are not in the suitable time for me.

Delays in Ethereum transactions are associated with increased overload in the system, you can cope with such a load with the help of miners.

Ethereum currently only allows to process about 20 transactions, which can be sure you better increase gas and gwei You could be years ahead will be stable again and can be lucky for you Good luck

Delays are normal events, I am the supporter of idea that time doesn't metter here despite security and being calm of your moves with money at all.

I also noticed same delay and loss of ether as transaction fee for a little token which never reached it destination. I think there is a fork going on at Ethererum platform because the scalability is now very low and sometimes not even working. I hope the developers are watching on the market to know what next to do.

Delay is a normal thing. I think the problem of delay has been solved. At present, ETH's block network is not congested, so 3GWEI can be set up to turn out normally.

I think this is due to the large number of transactions there is a possibility of failure but very small

It was really backed up last night and this morning. Standard gas fee was 61 Gewi. I accidentally sent a transaction with 5. I waited about 24hrs for that to go through but no dice.

It is almost a normal trend especially when the network is clogged with too many transactions all trying to happen at the same time. And at such there is bound to be delays in the confirmation of transaction time.
