If you sent the coin from and exchange then there should be a button or link to cancel it but if it's already sent to the blockchain then I do not think you will be able to reverse it since you do not have the private key of the wallet.

You need to wait until the mempool picks up all it's transactions. It will take a while depending on the fees that was set.

[Ryker1]

You can use RBF to replace the original transaction with a new one that has a higher fee. To do this --you need to create a new transaction with the same inputs as the original transaction but with a higher fee or if you need to cancel it just place the higher fee but a lower amount of bitcoin. The new transaction must also have a higher sequence number than the original transaction. Because when the new transaction is broadcasted to the network, it will replace the original transaction, effectively canceling it in short.
Before making any transaction and to avoid hurrying, always refer to this site ^{[ https://mempool.space ]} to see the status of the network, when congested, set into a higher fee.

I have the prv key to the wallet that it was sent from. Or are you talking about the receiver??

[Don Pedro Dinero]

It is not clear to me that the OP is referring to bitcoin, as he talks about 'crypto', which sounds to me more like he has bought an altcoin or several cryptocurrencies, which could include bitcoin.

Can you specify this? What exactly did you buy and where did you buy it. With this information we can try to help you better.

[Ryker1]

It is not clear to me that the OP is referring to bitcoin, as he talks about 'crypto', which sounds to me more like he has bought an altcoin or several cryptocurrencies, which could include bitcoin.

I think the word RBF terms only refers to a feature in the Bitcoin protocol that allows users to replace an unconfirmed transaction with a new transaction that pays a higher fee --not on altcoins. So I think it is 98% sure OP talking about bitcoin.

all of that it was off the Bitwallet App not a PC. Can you tell me how? On blockchains website when I enter the hash Id it says “pending”


I bought it of crypto.com app yes it was BTC I ran th hash tag on blockchain and it says pending.

Went to block cypher and said confedence 81% miners 50% whatever that mean

I hadn't thought of that. Thanks.

How do I just cancel it?

You cannot cancel it. If the fee is too low, it will eventually be cancelled by the miners and returned to the original address.

I have the prv key to the wallet that it was sent from. Or are you talking about the receiver??

Do you have no more funds in the wallet you sent from?

Considering it's bitcoin and you have the private key. In that case, you can cancel the transaction. I did it using Electrum. Download the desktop version. Restore the wallet with the private key. Mouse hover and right click on the mouse. You should be able to see an option that will say Cancel/Cancel transaction kind similar thing. Click there and it will show you what to do.

I did it long ago, and if I remember correctly then it worked too. Try it.

[edit]
Fee per vbyte 84satoshi spent on the tx and it's unconfirmed from the last 7 hours! Mempool is making history LOL

It is estimated to be confirmed tomorrow but estimations can change and the mempool is getting fuller and fuller, even at the weekend, which is unusual. You can try what BitcoinGirl.Club says about cancelling with Electrum, which I didn't know.

I did it long ago, and if I remember correctly then it worked too. Try it.

By the way mate, did you just cancel it? I am reading information about it and apparently to cancel one transaction already broadcasted to the mempool you have to:

send another transaction that uses the same inputs but spends them in a different way (aka "Double Spend") and hope that the new transaction gets confirmed before the first transaction... but you can't simply make the first transaction "disappear".

It's double spending of course. You need to rebroadcast the tx with higher fees. Once you click the cancel button then it will tell you what to do. You don't need any technical knowledge for that.

By the way, when a transaction with lower fees stay around 7 days then the pool automatically drops it. So this is a way to get your transaction disappears.

Go to history tab.
You are seeing the transaction as a list.
Right click on the transaction, you will see some options and one of it is, Cancel transaction or just cancel or may be it is saying double spend. Whatever it says, it's the options you pick.
Click on it and follow instructions.

P.S: It's hard to give very specific direction if the window is not open to your end. Right now I have no facility to open an Electrum and give you specific direction other than what I provided already.

I agree with what @BitcoinGirl.Club said above.
Download Electrum wallet in the PC version and export your private key there. If I am not mistaken --upon the creation of the Biwallet app you have full control of your private key which you can import into the Electrum wallet that supports RBF.
Take your time importing your wallet to Electrum, based on the TXID you have shown above it is unlikely will not get confirmed today based on this ^{[ https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transaction/d35604626aa8ef669ca2bf0b9730abea92955d082f2f17542d00ad0573a6d93e ]}
Remember that you need to have extra balance when double-spending transactions.

You should expect an option which is "Cancel (double-spend)"

[hosseinimr93]

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.

Now this is saying replace by fee “false” yet blockchain says YES. Ugh

That blockexplorer is buggy or incompetent, do not take the displayed data in face value. (it's not the "Bitcoin blockchain", BTW)

If you click the "JSON" tab, you'll see that your transaction's input's nSequence value is "4294967295"
or in HEX 0xffffffff which indicates that it's not opted-in for replacement; yet they're displaying it as yes...
