Have you set any configurations related to transaction relay or mempool in your bitcoin.conf file, GUI settings or command line options?
Because it may be broadcasted exclusively to your node due to a setting that allows it (
thus the "in mempool" note) but rejected by all your peers for some reason.
Since you already willing to share the transaction via txid which we can't find, it's better if you can share the raw transaction for us to see the actual issue.
Get it from the 'Transaction' tab of the GUI, right-click on it and select "
Copy raw transaction" or via
getrawtransaction command.
Then put it inside [code][/code] tags so the forum wont mess its format.
In case that you want to abandon it as suggested by others, you'll have to get it out of your mempool first before the "
abandon transaction" option can be clicked.
One way is to remove the option that allows it to your mempool which is at the same time allowing you to create transactions that'll have trouble with propagation.
Or the manual removal of mempool.dat (
Bitcoin Core must not be running) and temporarily setting walletbroadcast=0 to be able to abandon it.
