...I also tried ViaBTC's accelerator that you linked to, but it said they're overloaded with requests right now.
You can try again in the next hour but you have to be really quick since their free service is limited to 100 transactions per hour.

I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for but I always go with https://bitaccelerate.com and the transaction usually starts to go through a little while later. It does look like there is quite a bit of activity on the blockchain right now, especially compared to what there was yesterday morning and if the fee was really low it might be stuck for a while until the activity drops down again. I've tried a few accelerators in the past and this one was always the most successful, it's linked with https://bitcoinfees.net as well which is a nice representation of the current volume of outstanding transactions.
First, I'm sure The Pharmacist know the function of bitcoin fees and what happens to him is something that can happen to us either.Having said that, Bitaccelerate is never a transaction accelerator and it only rebroadcast the transaction and the only legitimate transaction accelerator I know is viabtc.
Edit :The Pharmacist was typing when I see that you say something about it but accelerate. Have you use their (viabtc) pay service?
That site does not accelerate a transaction. It simply rebroadcasts a transaction, which is something that your wallet can do (and some do it automatically).
Yeah, that's what I figured--plus I'd already tried it and did search before I started this thread. I also tried ViaBTC's accelerator that you linked to, but it said they're overloaded with requests right now. I assumed ViaBTC would be the only free one out there, since I remembered their name from a long time ago, but it's been a while and figured there might be some new, free ones around.Edit:

I knew I should've made this thread self-moderated. Having said that, Bitaccelerate is never a transaction accelerator and it only rebroadcast the transaction and the only legitimate transaction accelerator I know is viabtc.

That site does not accelerate a transaction. It simply rebroadcasts a transaction, which is something that most wallets can do (and some wallets do it automatically). Rebroadcast only helps if the transaction has been dropped from the mempool, which is rarely the problem.I have never used an accelerator, but I know that viabtc's accelerator (https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/) is free, though there are some restrictions. And be careful, because there are many spoof sites.
Also, if you can wait a little longer, the difficulty will be dropping soon. That will result in higher throughput, and the mempool may clear again as a result.

I've had a transaction stuck in the network for about a day now, and I thought I'd sent it with an appropriately high fee (I used Electrum and had the fee determined by the mempool) but apparently I was way off. I had RBF off, so I used the "child pays for parent function" to boost the fee, but the Tx is still stuck.
Are there any legitimate free transaction accelerators out there? I'd increase the fee if I could, but I can't--and I didn't realize there was any congestion in the network. I'd appreciate any advice.
