This is not the transaction ID. A transaction ID, also known as tx hash, is 64 characters long. This is an example of a transaction ID:

Code:

I don't know what you copied, but it won't help anyone. Right click on the transaction that is still pending and then Copy -> Transaction ID. If you broadcasted it 24 hours ago and it's still unconfirmed, it means that you have entered a small fee. What fee did you choose?

Nothing to worry about pending transactions because it's normal especially if you put small transaction fees and a replaceable transaction. I experimented last month on that too, I set the transaction fee into the lowest one and it took 3 days before it gets confirmed, such a hassle if you need the cash urgently. The other reason is when Bitcoin is making another ALL TIME HIGH, that's when transactions stock up but rest assured you'll receive your money.

We don't need your id, we will only know the transaction if you posted the transaction ID and or the wallet, where did you get the idea that by posting your electrum id we'll know your transaction, you can check the status of your transaction in the explorer and if it's pending you can use accelerator to fast tract your transaction, sometimes it works or you can add fees if you want the transaction to confirm right away.

This is the most logical explanation as to why your transaction is not getting in. You may have set the fees so low that no miners are going to pick it up. Maybe you can use a RBF (if you enable it prior to the transaction). If not then you don't have a choice but to wait. Maybe you can hear others saying to used a transaction accelerator, but I'm not sure how effective it is and in my experience, it doesn't really work.

Depending on his transaction fee, rebroadcasting the transaction could help. But, as the others have said, we can't know anything without the correct TX hash ID.

Spacecat_4, to find your transaction on blockchain explorer just right-click on the transaction in Electrum history and select the option to see the details of the transaction - a link will open in your browser, and you will get a site like this - then you need to copy the hash of your transaction. There is a possibility that the transaction can be accelerated, but only if it meets the criteria of the minimum fee.

Depending on his transaction fee, rebroadcasting the transaction could help.

This is not true, re-broadcasting is something completely different and will not help the transaction to be confirmed faster, but only to keep it in mempool.

There are additional services claiming to be able to "accelerate" a transaction. Their ability to get a transaction confirmed faster is limited to re-broadcasting your transaction, to help in the situation where that mining pool has dropped your transaction already.

Is that the number you mean?
I have no idea about fees etc,I just sent the payment as normal. I have never had these issues before. It says there are 104 confirmations,I don't know what that means. Thanks for helping.

Your transaction got 106 confirmations and it is more than enough to consider as a safe transactions. More than 3 and 6 confirmations will make your transaction becomes very safe, irreversible.

What do you mean about Pending here?
What do you mean about "via my Electrum wallet"?

I guess you're talking about

• You use your Electrum wallet to send your bitcoin to exchange or service wallet. It is true?
• Pending is on your exchange/ service account. Is it true?

If two questions are True. You have to contact the company to credit the amount of bitcoin to your account balance. Sometimes, exchanges get technical problems that break their automatic credit process for deposits.

You paid a high fee 0.00394308 BTC (116.4 sat/vB) for the transaction and it's enough for quick confirmation.
There's no need to accelerate the transaction, and I'm quite sure you don't know how to do that. Transaction gets confirmed quicker and faster on weekend, can yo wait a little bit for it to be confirmed soon?

[Spacecat_4]

You are right, I wouldn't have a clue how to accelerate it 
I have emailed the person I sent it to, to make sure there is not a problem on their end. Thanks for helping me. I do find BTC quite confusing at times. I guess I can wait. Just don't want to lose my money.

You will only lose BTC if you send it to someone who wants to scam you - and I can’t say if that’s the case now - but it’s quite certain that the transaction was successfully confirmed. If that person claims not to have received anything, it will definitely be a sign that something is wrong, and in no case do not send another transaction. Scammers are everywhere and you need to be careful - I hope you still get a positive response from that person.

[Spacecat_4]

Thanks, I am pretty sure they aren't a scammer as I have dealt with them before. Im sure it will be fine. Hopefully it will get updated on their end before long. Do they have to claim it on their end to change the status from pending to completed?

No. they do not have to do anything from their end. Your part is completed as well.
You have broadcasted the bitcoin transaction to the blockchain and the transaction also shows confirmed on the blockchain.
If the address is right then the other person would have received the bitcoins on their address.
If the other person agrees that he has received the BTC then well and good otherwise just confirm the bitcoin address with him one again.

You did not check the given question and details from OP.

You are right, I wouldn't have a clue how to accelerate it  

You don't have to accelerate it. Your transaction (hours ago) has 106 confirmations that are more than enough.

You should know the common confirmation number is required by exchanges and services are 1 to 3 confirmations. Most common required number is 3 (confirmations).

I have emailed the person I sent it to, to make sure there is not a problem on their end.

Which sort of deal you did? Is it a peer-to-peer trade?

To be safe in the future, you should consider Escrow services from trusted members.

I don't understand. That transaction has 100 outputs and many of them are already spent. This looks like a withdrawal from the Coinbase exchange to me.

Are you sure this is the correct TX hash ID?

[arabspaceship123]

If they've given you a correct receiving address they should let you know they've received the Bitcoin but there's nothing to worry about because your transaction status shows 192 confirmations. That means you didn't do anything wrong and your payment isn't pending, they've received it.

The problem at their end can only be if their crypto wallet is out of sync for some reason, and therefore they don't see your incoming transaction - but the only relevant evidence is a link to any blockchain explorer where every transaction can be checked. Since we don't know to whom the transaction was addressed, we can't know why the amount you sent is still in pending status.
