I just submitted your transaction to the ViaBTC TX Accelerator... fingers crossed it gets a confirmation when they mine their next block.
How did you manage to do that considering they are beyond limit 24/7? Roll Eyes
It is all in the timing... seriously, I have about a 99% success rate with ViaBTC submissions by simply putting them in the first few seconds of a new hour. After 2 or 3 minutes, your chances drop to pretty much zero. :-/

Lots of unconfirmed transaction = high demand for free service that helps guarantee confirmations.

It also seems to be spawning scams relating to transaction "acceleration"... so be very wary if you go the pay option.
Bounties Issued.
Wow... was not actually expecting that. All I did was drop the tx into the accelerator Wink But thanks for the tip... Glad you got your tx sorted.



That TX was stuck long enough that it appreciated over $20, And I was to getting frustrated with it being stuck.
Having a community here that is willing to share knowledge so openly, and put their own time aside to assist others with no incentive, That right there is what helps a community grow. Even if you only did one small task, I appreciated it far more than you might assume.
I'll gladly spread a dollar or two around to sink that in.

I DID NOT issue $10 to any one individual.

Seeing as how I collected inputs and assistance from a few of you, I issued bounties amounting in TX push fees plus Time fee.

Once again, Thanks !

They are not. The best time is around :00 every hour. But they take only 100 submissions each hour.

Everyone who had an input on here will receive something.

I am working on getting the bounties off the exchange (minimum $9 withdrawal per address >.< )


Once I get some bits back in my actual wallet, I will distribute bounties.

Thanks again everyone!

Your fees on that transaction are way low, it won't get confirmed, it will just be dropped from the mempool. What you tried to do is called double spend. To overcome that, your first transaction must be dropped first to get the second one confirmed. Is that the first transaction HashID or the second?

What are you talking about? I see no double spending.

BTW:
It is confirmed!




Thank you for your efforts !

Once I get 2 more confirmations on it, Ill be able to send you your entitled bounty.

So,

Blockchain.info is showing that your transaction is confirmed and without waiting its confirmed in 0 minutes. https://blockchain.info/tx/c2f39bb9c8b512a1e51acd710da04442b718df04d4bef614a404434d3b172138

Blocktrail showing that the transaction is not confirmed https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/c2f39bb9c8b512a1e51acd710da04442b718df04d4bef614a404434d3b172138

The fee you used for the transaction is very low.

Only blocktrail is showing 0 confirmations and 0.0002 fees some of the other showing 0.0000384 this fee.

Can I ask you which wallet, you exactly used for this transaction? What exactly fee you used or you used the automatically adjusted fee?

The best shot is you use https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ Its an free service. They also offer paid service you have to contact their email.

It is the First one.

when I checked blockchain.info and saw the TXID wasn't there anymore, I attempted the double spend under the assumptions the first was already dropped.

Once that didn't go through, I looked at other explorers, and saw the first TXID is still live.

I don't have any more BTC to raise the TX. All I had is in that TX. And it would take 4-5 days for me to have $5/BTC fully clear on my exhange so I can use it to accelerate.

That TX is over $200, If someone can get it pushed through so it gets 3 confirmations today, Ill give them $10/btc as soon as it hits.

I can try to accelerate, but there is no guarantee. https://bitcoinaccelerator.info/btc-accelerator promisses 10 hours or money back, but I'm not sure if that's fast enough.

In my other post there was a link to a few miners who could help you. Did you contact them? Or do you want me to proceed with something?


Yes please go ahead and give whatever you got a try.
As long as I get 3 confirmations within the day (12 hours), I will reward you with $10/btc.
As for contacting miners, I have not.

I'm sick of pulling my hair out over this TX, I just want the BTC on the receiving end already.

Done. I send you a PM with details.

My problem is, All my BTC are tied up in that TXID. So unless an Accelerator site accepts paypal, my exchange takes 4-5 days to clear bank deposits, which I would have to do to purchase $5 in BTC to do it.


If you could do it for me, I will give you $10/btc once the TX gets 3 confirmations and I can transfer you some.
You can increase the TX. I think bitcoin transation takes more times because of the bitcoin has already exceeded $ 2000/1btc.  Grin

So 5 days ago I initiated a TX, both wallets are in my control, And put a low TX fee.
Yesterday, It stopped showing up on blockchain.info explorer, so I Tried to re-index my sending wallet, and spend it again.
After Re-indexing it, I tried to send it with a way higher TX fee, This did not work.

Some explorers reflect the Original TXID as still unconfirmed, and blockchain Info doesn't acknowledge it at all.
No chain explorer acknowledges the 2ed TX I tried to send out.

TXID: c2f39bb9c8b512a1e51acd710da04442b718df04d4bef614a404434d3b172138

https://btc.com/c2f39bb9c8b512a1e51acd710da04442b718df04d4bef614a404434d3b172138


If anyone gets this confirmed within 2 hours, Ill send them $5/btc

Edit:

Solved. Thanks everyone.
