To create a new tx - yes.

To delete a tx that did not go through and was not broadcast by bitcoin-qt - I don't think so, as the tx would not be in the bitcoin-qt database.

Glad to hear it worked for you. The main thing is, you got your coins back :-)

A transaction will be sent without fees if these conditions are met:
  • It is smaller than 10 thousand bytes.
  • All outputs are 0.01 BTC or larger.
  • Its priority is large enough (see the Technical Info section below)

There is also this: Its priority is large enough, but since the 6 BTC input was only 1 block old, I don't think the priority was large enough.

So it looks like this transaction was never relayed and will never be included in a block. If this was my own wallet, I would remove the transaction manually and create another one with a fee. Since it's a blockchain wallet, what can be done about this?
Import the private key in bitcoin-qt and then use pywallet to delete the tx.


Edit: On second thought, I'm not sure that will work.

it will work, I have almost the same problem:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/solved-512-btc-in-a-transaction-that-will-never-confirm-need-help-147519

just imported the private keys to my bitcoin qt and I was able to create another transaction that confirmed without problems.

priority = sum(input_value_in_base_units * input_age)/size_in_bytes

Given that the larger input was very recently confirmed, it makes sense that the transaction is a low priority. But not being included in a block for over a day seems out of the ordinary. Granted, I always pay transaction fees. With the obvious exception of this time, since Blockchain's Android app wanted me to pay 0.005, so I hit cancel, and then it sent the transaction without a fee.

That should matter, that's just the change output, the other is for 6.2 BTC.

Bitcoin doesn't recognize a difference between "change" output or "transfer" output.  An output is an output.  Only you and your wallet know that it is "change".

I understand this and shouldn't have even brought up the change issue. But since when does bitcoin prioritize based on individual output amounts instead of entire transaction amounts? As in, why would it ignore the 6.2 BTC output when determining that the other one is "too small"? I don't think that's how it works.

Is it really such a low priority that it hasn't been included in more than 100 blocks,

I suspect it is the 0.00072335 BTC output that is causing you a problem.

In general transactions with outputs less than 0.01 BTC aren't well relayed unless they include a fee of at least 0.0005 BTC.  As such, many miners are probably not going to get to it until/unless we get to a point where there are no higher priority transactions waiting for a confirmation.

how can the miner know?

Piuk,

Can you tell me what's going on with this transaction? Is it really such a low priority that it hasn't been included in more than 100 blocks, or is something else going on?

My settings have always been on "generous" so not sure why two went out with 0 fee, but they did start moving so it's all okay.

Was the transaction made using one of the mobile apps?

Yes, there were two made that way yesterday via the iPhone app.  I've never had a problem with it before yesterday.

This may be a stupid question, but why doesn't there seem to be an option to add a fee with the Android app?

I believe it automatically determines if a fee is necessary. Just today I sent a transaction and it said a 0.005 fee was required. I hit cancel to change the amount sent (because I didn't have enough to include the fee) and it sent it without a fee. Now the transaction is sitting out there unconfirmed, my local buyer didn't see the transaction appear in Bitcoin-Qt, and is worried he won't get his money.

Needless to say I won't be using the BlockChain Android app anymore...

What happened to the satoshi dice balance that shows how much you won/loss?

Disabled due to high load. The way it is currently programmed is not efficient, it needs to check all soatoshidice bets ever made (which is now several million).

well, he was just logged in for awhile and now he's gone again.  still no word re: the in limbo $20k.  

Should be sorted now.

-----

The unconfirmed transactions problem is not blockchain specific, confirmations are just slow at the moment becuase of increased transaction volume. In [Account Settings] the fee policy can be set to generous if you would prefer a feee was included every transaction.

1.  Transactions confirmed on shared address, no sign of any other transactions at all

ah yes - in which case you do need to contact Ben and I'm sure he'll find the private keys for the shared address and forward them to you.  He is on UTC+1 so he might be about to go to bed (approaching midnight)

Basically, it was a Shared Send alias that was used on March 30th ... then the person didn't check with me before sending, and simply sent again to that same Shared Send alias.  The Shared Send alias is no longer pushing to my wallet since they are single-use aliases or something.  :*(

The transaction that was sent to one of my "Shared Send" expired addresses now has over 100 confirmations.  It's for $20k.  Sad

The other unconfirmed transactions I would wait for, but they are transactions sent out to clients who bought the btc from us, and who are now also joining in on being pissed.
so just to be clear - the transaction to your (expired) shared address has confirmed.  Have the transactions come through to your masked address?  Are those transactions confirmed?  Please describe the situation exactly.  is it

1.  Transactions confirmed on shared address, no sign of any other transactions at all
2.  Transactions confirmed on shared address, transactions have appeared on masked address but not confirming
