Transaction pending or error?

[STINKYBEE]

I did the transaction with really low fee at 11.9 sat/vB it is pending since 3days now, when gonna get confirmed ? Should I cancel the transaction after 14 days if they don't execute?

What do it mean awaiting payment in 852:39minutes?

The mempool hasn’t got pass the 20 sats/vbyte fee rate in the last 1 week so your transaction might definitely still be in some nodes mempools, since even the mempool.space purging fee rate is still around 10.5sats/vbyte currently. But you can check this if you’re are able to import the wallet seed phrase into electrum. Try to switch electrum servers and see maybe some might have dropped the transaction from their mempool. If it shows local in any of the servers, then you can delete that transaction file and rebroadcast new one with a higher fee.

If not you will have to wait for the transaction to either be dropped or confirmed, which sometimes exceeds that 14 days. There is nothing like cancellation of a transaction what you’re doing there is spending the transaction back to the address it is coming from with higher fees

• fastestFee: 22 sat/vB
• halfHourFee: 22 sat/vB
• hourFee: 22 sat/vB
• economyFee: 18 sat/vB
• minimumFee: 9 sat/vB

The current transaction fee rate is around 20.9 to 21 satoshis per virtual byte (sat/vb) as you can see from the quote from feebudy. It shows your transaction fee was too low, as transactions with fees below 10.9 sat/vb are likely to be dropped or not confirmed, according to the mempool information. I suggest increasing the fee using RBF (Replace-By-Fee). If your wallet supports RBF, consider raising the fee for confirmation. If not, you should import your seed into a wallet like Electrum, which supports RBF and allows you to adjust the fee.

How can I do a CPFP in Electrum from a wallet instead of Ledger? And if Electrum is not the way to go, what are my alternatives? Tried using Sparrow, but for some reason when I right click my unconfirmed transaction, it doesn't give me a CPFP option, plus it says RBF disabled.

so, if rbf isn't enabled am I not able to do a cpfp transaction ?

You can do CPFP so long as any part of the transaction has your address. For example, if you spend 0.1BTC when you have 1 BTC, then you'd expect to receive 0.9BTC in one of your address. You can spend that with a large enough fee, and hopefully a miner would consider to mine your transaction. If CPFP isn't allowed in Electrum, then you can assume that none of the other outputs belongs to you.

If you don't mind, you can post or PM me your TXID and I can help you take a look.

If it shows local in any of the servers, then you can delete that transaction file and rebroadcast new one with a higher fee.

You don't have to. You can call wallet.remove_transaction(TXID) from the RPC console of Electrum and remove the transaction without having to switch servers. However, the issue is when miners and other nodes hasn't purged your transaction. In that case, you wouldn't be able to get a good propagation or confirm your transaction.

I set up all, thanks seniors. Done at higher fee. I think I should lock up this thread.
