Hi guys,

Recently due to the low fees I attempted to send a larger transaction using only 1 satoshi/B:

https://blockchain.info/tx/ac3ef98d7ff4a13f1efa7faaf66b50e0a03724dc65d89e19125a4de443d9123e

1410 sats fees, 1402 bytes

Obviously since I did not expect that to confirm by itself another transaction was sent for child pays for parent:

https://blockchain.info/tx/94178262fe53f2ef7162ce1955815a7b13a2084367f9aacaa3088611ed8dcef1

30000 sats fees, 223 bytes

By my understanding for CPFP, the total would be: (31410 sats/1625 bytes) = 19.32 sats/B

In theory, this fee, though low, should have gotten at least confirmed within a day, but it still has not been over 2 days. Is there a problem with my calculations or thinking?

Thanks!

Added..Block: 506143, Broadcast was needed.. confirmation on your way..

Thank you so much for the help!
