In case you ever want to do a cpfp with bitcoin core qt the next time you run into problems:
*warning*: I don't use the QT wallet, and i don't wanted to stop my daemon, so i used an altcoin wallet for this semi-walktrough... I hope their QT gui layout is the same as bitcoin core's. I also didn't have any unspent outputs i could work with...
That seems to be a fairly accurate representation of how Bitcoin Core is currently setup... and should work.
Obviously, the tricky part is calculating the correct fee
You really want to make sure you calculate it properly. If you're very desperate and you need a fast confirmation, overestimating is definitely better than underestimating... otherwise you might end up with TWO unconfirmed transactions left hanging!
Thats correct since the price of tx are depend on the status of the mempool and I believe it will be better if Bitcoin core tx fee can have the same features like electrum. However, the transaction was confirmed 15 hours ago.
I believe the above transaction accelerator or confirmtx which will allow the OP to pay some certain fee to miners if the previous is too small are the option the OP had since mocacinno believe rebroadcasting the transaction is not the best option.
Damn... ConfirmTx? Really?
They were confirmed as a scam months ago (maybe even a year ago). I’m not even sure if they are still up.
Rebroadcasting is usually totally useless. All it does is add the tx to specific nodes mempool. If the tx is already there, it doesn’t do anything. The tx with higher fee will always get confirmed first. That’s is no way an “acceleration”.
Wasn't aware of the situation. I mentioned the site because I used it last year with the viabtc and my transaction went through.
