your fee is low not fair

The fee is low for the current time, but I think it's a fair fee. Current fees needed aren't fair, they are too high.

Hello,

My transaction (155c19e00efa486e364f5c5c346cb42762f0360e77fb043fa2a40e6fb84d3c28) is still unconfirmed, even 24 hours after initializing.

The fee for the transaction is ~177 sat/b, which seems to me pretty fair.

Any ideas why is this happening? Any ways to accelerate this?

I saw the transaction is already confirmed.

Thanks, I've tried ViaBTC TX acceleration but it seems to be clogged with requests.

I listened to your advice and tried in the first minute after an hour reset and it worked!

I guess all I need to do now is to wait until they mine a block.

Thanks for your advice!

The fee is actually on the low side and that's the main reason. If you check the following website: http://bitcoinfees.21.co/#fees it says:

The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 390 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top.

There's a lot of unconfirmed transactions at the moment and fees have increased significantly.

You can you "ViaBTC Transaction Accelerator Tool": https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
Use it on first few minutes of the hour reset (UTC format).
Take note: They also have "paid accelerator service" which costs 0.01BTC/transaction.
