Same problem here, been pending for 10 days now, after sending some token to an exchange. There's a lot of us who are experiencing these issues, especially when you paid a low fee, just like I did. You really can't expect me to pay a higher fee than the transaction fee I pay to my regular bank (which by the way never remains pending for 10 days). ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) So if this problem with Ethereum doesn't get solved soon, its future doesn't look too bright... that is why Ethereum is a very risky coin now. People stop to believe in the company and do not like the technical development of this blockchain

Mine's pending for 14 days now. In the meantime my token is far from the price I wanted to sell it for, so it all doesn't matter much right now, and I'll just leave it pending for fun. Let's see if this will take forever or not.

I tried to send an Ethereum transaction using https://www.myetherwallet.com/ over 40 days ago. I used a very low fee and seems it was not nearly enough. The transaction is now stuck and says pending. It doesnt look like it will be dropped and I am not sure what to do. I tried to speed it up by adding more gas through Metamask but every time I do that I get an error in MEW and it fails. I read somewhere that I need to spend the same nonce with more gas for the transaction to be confirmed. I have no idea how to do that. Can someone help? Has anyone faced similar issues wit stuck Eth transactions that couldnt be spent and how do I solve this? What is going on with the fees and why is an ETH transaction more expensive than a Bitcoin transaction? The good news is that ethereum fee is back to previous values not only they are low now but faster as well, the eth dev team has found some solution for short term to cope with the issue which is great because community was thinking that it will remain like this till eth 2.0 launches.

This user have the same experience and I think you should view how he did solve the issue. Check the link. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5184484.msg52451444#msg52451444Its weird there are lots of new topic regarding transaction stuck. It looks like the eth network has clogged that worse. I would like to suggest to everyone to always check the transaction fee via eth gas station or avoid transferring of funds through the use of eth network for a while or unnecessary transactions. Gas fee now are really crazy high. They are trying to bypass the fee and set at the very low which is not a good idea. There is already a set minimum gas fee which a need not to change otherwise, it will keep undermined. It so expecting ti have delayed this time especially when we are just paying the acceptable minimum fee but seeing about 40 days still pending, that is really weird and I'm just hearing it for the first time. @OP, only a thing that you do is to cancel it (just follow the STEPS). And have to spend more on a Gas fee for the next time, though you can still experience delays but it won't be the same as you have experienced lately. You can't ignore fees as only a way to have a successful transaction.

I've experienced this kind of thing, when using low gas costs. Indeed, our transaction will be delayed and we never know when it works or fails. So the thing that has to be done again is to make another transaction, but using high gas costs. So that our transaction is successful and the previous transaction will fail.

I also experienced several pending transactions using Ethereum, and it turned out that the gas fee I used was too low. After I canceled the transaction and tried to re-do the transaction by increasing the gas fee, my Ethereum transaction was complete in several minutes. Maybe if you experience the same thing as me, try the solution to increase the gas fee to high.

Let's see if this will take forever or not. So in the end I lost my patience and replaced the transaction 3 days ago (after having been pending for almost 1,5 month) by a transaction in which I doubled the fee (remained largely under 1 dollar though) and it passed. In the end quite happy because I was absolutely not willing to pay more. Looks like transaction fees have gone even lower since.

Maybe at this point Ethereum has high fees and delayed deposit times, however ETH is still the biggest altcoin in the market, it has a stable price and very good development team.

I don't understand why is it such problem to speed up the transaction. When I was claiming UNI Etherscan estimated that confirmation will be in more than an hour. I opened transaction in MetaMask and chose to speed it up. I entered more gas and the new transaction went trough while the old one was dropped.

Yes, you were using lower gas fee than should be at that moment. I think you can overwrite your pending transaction. Try to search how to resubmit your ethereum transaction with higher gas fee, so there won't be any pending transactions anymore in your wallet.

check again, maybe your remaining etherum balance is not enough to pay for the gas price. Make sure how much etherum will be sent, how much the gas price will be, and make sure there is still 0.002 etherum left in your wallet, it will probably work. I usually do that when I can't make a transaction.

If your transaction is still in pending status you maybe able to cancel it in a very simple way go to transaction text then find the Nonce position in etherscan usually its at the bottom you can click to see more to show details once found the nonce position copy it and back to MEW and make a transaction by sending 0 eth to your own address using the same nonce position you copied in the pending transaction, you can see the nonce in edit advance settings in mew before sending.

This transaction must have been failed so far, you can see the red dot notification on the top right corner, some times it has a glitch with meta mask and shows transactions is pending even though they are failed, To solve that you just can send 0 Eth to your wallet with the same address, it cancels the former transaction.

I did exactly that with a stuck transaction that I sent from a nano ledger S and it worked fine ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Yes, at the moment Ethereum has only one downside: the transaction fees are too high. However everyone should keep in mind that Ethereum is still the largest altcoin on the market and a lot of coins are issued on the ERC20 platform.

This is because of the high fees currently in the Eth network. I heard there is way to get over it by sending another transaction with the same nonce. You can Google for the proper steps .
