You should expect an option which is "Cancel (double-spend)"
OP's transaction hasn't been flagged as RBF and that's why that option is not available.

To OP:
Your tranaction hasn't been flagged as RBF and there is no way to bump the fee or cancel it (cancel=replace the transaction with a new one sending the fund to your own address.)

You can submit your transaction to ViaBTC free accelerator. With doing so, your transaction will be likely confirmed in the next block mined by ViaBTC. They have around 9% of the total hash rate and mine a block around every 2 hours on average.
Then OP have two options.
One: Either use the accelerator
Two: Wait for mempool to drop the transaction after around 7 days but looking at the fees set, I am sure it will be confirmed earlier than 7 days. May be in the next one or two days.

Seems the transaction is already in the blockchain...
Quite a few confirmations by now!

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

With 84  per vbyte OP had to wait for his luck which means it's a mess around in the mempool. I can not remember we had such congestion before not even in 2017/2018 when btc had it's highest pick. Not long ago there were tx which was only 1  per vbyte confirmed in the next block.

Yeah, its new normal right now and we can't help it but to wait or spend huge fees to accelerate the transaction.
It's better you keep tracking the transactions fees before broadcasting them.

What a coincidence, just found amazing Telegram Bot made by fellow user @TryNinja, which you can use to track the fees, transaction alert etc and make a good move while making any transaction. It would be unreal to bump your transaction with higher fees or double spend. Better wait for this one to pass on and from next time onwards be attentive with fees.

The current fees:
509 sats/byte for 2-3 hours confirmation. That's crazy!

The tool you should have right now
Telegram Bot - Bitcoin Fees - fees and tx tracker

I even used 0.00014165 BTC (100.5 sat/byte) for the current transaction fee and it has been about 24 hours since it was confirmed.
The Bitcoin network congestion this time is very disturbing. this is because the network is full of NFTs and BRC20 tokens

Telegram Bot - Bitcoin Fees - fees and tx tracker
A bot that is quite useful and can provide real-time Bitcoin Fee information without opening any website.

509 sats/byte is a pretty crazy fee for one transaction right now.

Waiting for the network to return to normal is the right choice.
But if it is an emergency, then a fairly expensive fee must still be chosen to speed up the transaction.

The current highest fee is 253 sat/vB ($10.04) ≤ 20 min

I have no idea what are these NFTs and BTC20. Are we using bitcoin chain for those altcoin shits?

Mempool seems cooling down a bit. Last time I checked it was over 500 vMB but now I am seeing it's 120 vMB. May be we need one or two more weeks before we get rid of these mess.

Are you shure that this has anything to do with NFTs and stuff? For me this looks more like some test/attack that somebody does.
I think that because the network load jumped pretty quick and is now also going down quickly again. This would not happen if it would just be Normal usage, because then the transaction flow would be much more similar over the weeks.

To me this shows that bitcoin at this moment is not what sotoshi wanted it to be. Block size was not adjusted like it was planned, so the network is not capable to have that many users like we have them now.

Imagine such a mess with Visa or Mastercard, it’s just unthinkable. At least, that nobody seems to care from the developers.
