How much days does it take to get dropped a tx from mempool

[RapTarX]

I can't remember where I had discussed it couple of days ago. I can't find the thread. I have a tx with 1 sat/per byte last week and it's still pending. Before this time, I had another tx last time when fee increased and after couple of days later, I had seen an option to remove the tx from my wallet. I can't see the option anymore now. I'm using electrum wallet.

Currently, a transaction gets dropped from the mempool after about 14 days (2 weeks) by default.

Did you enable replace by fee? If so can you not just bump the fee you added to it.

It's made quite difficult to double spend a transaction in electrum, after a day it forgot mine so you could wait for that but I haven't heard a confirmation from anyone that's actually a thing and not just a quirk with my wallet.

Got it. It has not been 14 days yet.

Yes, I did use RBF but currently I'm not planning to increase the fee since I'm not much in hurry. I will be waiting for the option to remove the tx and by this time if fee decrease, I will make another tx.

Thank both of you guys.
