A few days back, a friend of mine made a transaction via Metamask with a lesser gas price. But the transaction didn't go through, so he made another transaction after checking ethgasstation with a higher fee. But that transaction also ended up as pending. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FAN7xRTr.jpg&t=665&c=-M3BYWnfT1q75A) When I checked the issue, I found that the transaction #14 was dropped. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FYKPUust.png&t=665&c=VmBwDk0m0HwFaw) But the transaction #15 doesn't show up on etherscan. When I checked the wallet address, the funds are still available in the wallet. Currently, he is not in a hurry to move the funds, so what should I advise him to do? Should I ask him to leave it be as the transaction has been dropped?

Try to find it in another eth explorer like ethplorer or etherchain. When I checked the wallet address, the funds are still available in the wallet. Currently, he is not in a hurry to move the funds, so what should I advise him to do? Should I ask him to leave it be as the transaction has been dropped?
If your friend is not in a hurry to use the funds, it's better to wait until it gets dropped. However, there is always the possibility to cancel or replace the transaction. Canceling : Send a new transaction with 0 eth to a new address with the same nonce and a higher fee. Replacing : Send a new transaction with (x) eth to a new address with a higher fee. It's always recommended to use Canceling over Replacing because there is no garantees that the second transaction will replace the first transaction. The first transaction could still be mined and invalidate the second one. Check this link for better understanding : Checking or Replacing a Transaction After it’s Been Sent.

same as what happened to me, but I have resolved, because I added GAS, and transactions can occur, if your GAS is low, then pending will occur

If he not in hurry then he can wait out for the transaction to get failed but do note sometimes it takes really long for a transaction to be dropped. From the screenshot, I can see he used metamask he can easily cancel or speed up the transaction using metamask. Just click on the transaction number and he will see the option to speed up the transaction or cancel it.

Speaking about ethereum transactions - can someone explain why the transactions cost more than they were half a year or year ago? Devs are making updates, blockchain is developing, but it is getting more expensive to make a transaction or cost more. That doesnt look like a healthy development to me.

I'm currently facing this type of problem with my ethereum wallet, I've sent out transaction for 7 days now and still pending, how will I add GAS to a transaction that's been already sent out? I will be happy if I can get help

Try to find it in another eth explorer like ethplorer or etherchain. Was not able to find it in other explorers too. Looks like the transaction #15 didn't go through. Btw, thanks for the guide you shared. But the thing I don't understand is that transaction #14 is already dropped as per etherscan and not found in other explorers but it is also shown as pending in Metamask ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) Speaking about ethereum transactions - can someone explain why the transactions cost more than they were half a year or year ago?

When the ethereum network is more congested, the transaction fees automatically increases as the miners prefer the transaction with higher gas. The reason for network congestion could be the growth in usage of Erc20 based Tether and awareness about DEXs and DeFi

I will be happy if I can get help Some Ethereum transactions is experiencing this issue and for you to stop or increase the transaction fee click on the coin you send if you're using metamask youll see stop, speed up icon. What you'll need to do is select the speedup icon in other for you to stop and increase the transaction fee cause the transaction wont stop if you select the stop icon due to long existence of it. After you increase the Gwei send the transaction again and with the situation of the ETH transaction network the best transaction option are the average/faster option. But the transaction #15 doesn't show up on etherscan.

Maybe you can also try restart your computer as suggested above. With the explorers not showing the dropped transaction like etherscan; either the set up their servers not to show dropped transactions, or their servers not yet updated to show this type of transactions yet. May be you can try few time later. If you don't mind, you can share here the hash of the two transactions and tell what happened with transaction #15 .

Actually stucked transactions can get resolved if you wait it out or if you leave more Ethereum in your wallet or import your private key into another wallet, I've fixed stucked transactions in my coinomi wallet by importing to trust wallet and trust wallet shows that I haven't send out any

On the Ethereum blockchain transactions are being processed sequentially, meaning transaction #14 will be processed before #15 and so forth. It is also not possible to process transactions with the same sequence number. it is not possible to process 14 transactions which have sequence #15, one of them will be dropped. Ethereum transactions are not being processed is that they are not getting picked up by a miner. you need to understand that miners receive the transaction and code-processing fees (gas) for each block of transactions they process, it is part of their reward. If your transaction is not being mined it means that there are enough other transactions on the network that are willing to pay a higher fee to the miner to get processed. This means if the network is very busy the transaction costs will be higher and vice versa.

I think resending with a higher fee would be the ideal thing to do. I also experienced this when I was transacting my tokens out of my metamask wallet to my ledger nano X. I’m not that familiar with that Ethereum transactions compared to bitcoin transactions, I think it’s quite complicated when you compare the two.

This is a very rare situation since I also do the transaction even if its at minimum gas I can say that my funds is still coming safe. If there still a problem then better to contact the support of ETH so your friends can confirm that his wallet is still safe from depositing and withdrawing tokens. Speaking about ethereum transactions - can someone explain why the transactions cost more than they were half a year or year ago? Devs are making updates, blockchain is developing, but it is getting more expensive to make a transaction or cost more. That doesnt look like a healthy development to me.
Transaction cost is varying depends on how the miners work, if you look at the others coins the transaction fees is moving base on the market situation so we can’t guarantee a more affordable fees when there’s an increase at cost.
