Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

What wallet are you using?
If using electrum, you can pump the fee. Just click on the unconfirmed transaction, then you can click on the pump fee to increase the transaction fee. The transaction is taking too long because of low fee.
You may not be able to do it for free.
Or
If the present balance on your wallet has the same UTXO, and you want to send bitcoin to another recipient, then just send using higher fee, the parent/formal transaction and the child/new transaction will be confirmed at ones which will be fast with higher fee. This is known as cpfp.

What fee did you pay? Do you want to share your transaction ID? The mempool is a line, and your transaction is behind all the others that are paying more. Your waiting time is irrelevant. I made this tool which may help you to have a better understand of how and when your transaction will be confirmed. Just insert your transaction ID there and it will plot it in the mempool, showing all transactions that have priority over yours.

If you made the tx with Electrum and had the RBF flag on, use Electrum, it has better chance to work. If you paid more than 10 sat/byte (I think) then ViaBTC tool may accept your tx, but I didn't use it for long time and the free part use to be crowded. https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator

And viabtc give me this info "Submissions are beyond limit. Please try later." I think i must wait for block to give my submit.

Aside from the suggestion above, you can use transaction accelerator to atleast hasten it's confirmation. It's almost no use though of your transaction fee was 1 satoshi and if the mempool is heavily trafficked, but mempool is good now, just wait a little while if you can't add fee to your tx.

Just insert your transaction ID there and it will plot it in the mempool, showing all transactions that have priority over yours. Well, that's a very nice and helpful tool and site in general, I will use it for sure. Btw, maybe you can add and a fee estimator for different wallets or a general one? I think it will be a good addition... P.S: I just send a very small donation for "thumbs up".  Mempool is heavily trafficked now. +40k unconfirmed transaction. Viabtc say too low fee ;/
So better wait since almost all tx accelerators are full of requests...

I don't like any of the ones I know, because all of them overestimate fees. I will certainly take a look if I can find a good alternative

Use Antpool's accelerator[1]. They do not require a minimum fee/byte nor for you to wait the next hour before submitting the tx and they have 8.5% of the hash rate (higher than ViaBTC). ViaBTC is overrated, and they are BCH shillers.  [1] https://www.antpool.com/user/prioritiseTransaction.htm?m=savePrioritiseTx

I will certainly take a look if I can find a good alternative  I totally agree with you and that's the basic reason why I asked you to add one. Maybe you have better luck than me to find something.  @OP: Sorry for posting about something that's "irrelevant" to your thread.

Mempool is heavily trafficked now. +40k unconfirmed transaction. Viabtc say too low fee ;/ Ow, sorry there, I didn't checked it this day. The last time I checked the mempool size, it was fine and good to make btc transactions since there are less competition on who's transaction will be confirmed faster. It's normal though, since it's weekdays.

Mempool rose and people are more actively moving their bitcoin. How about the fee of your unconfirmed transaction? If it is about 10 sat per byte, you can hope it will get confirmations next days. https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,4dIt is surprised me that mempool suddenly rose up after many days stood at low and nearly empty. People lost their belief on higher price for bitcoin and try to move to take profit or move their bitcoin to exchanges to buy altcoins that are rising few days back.

Confirmation of transactions is not your job to do. It's the blockchain and that depends on when the miners adds the block containing your transactions to the blockchain. All you could do is, help it go faster by increasing your fees, that way, confirmation is brought closer depending on congestion of the blockchain. Confirmation of transaction has an direct relationship with the fees
Increased fee = Faster confirmation Reduced fee = Slow confirmation
For pending transaction, all you could do is either to wait or cancel transaction and pump in more fees while, For marked paid transactions, all you could do is wait confirmation and be sure it would be confirmed in due time just that, the timing is uncertain depending on congestion still.
