Hello, what can i do to complete the transaction? Here is my problem:https://blockchain.info/tx/c8847648f5d23e02fccfeb727cd3cd3067a300db20a0212f4b2a478a9b73e851 , I using bitcoin core and I don't know what to do. I wait 7days but still nothing. Help! please

Given the lack of a fee it might never go through as is as it competes with fee-paying transactions. If you arrange for your wallet to stop retransmitting the transaction then eventually the network should forget it. I haven't done it myself but apparently the right-click abandon transaction is the thing you need. After that then you can send a new transaction with an appropriate fee which will go through in a reasonable amount of time.

You haven't added any fee to your transaction which is why it will never get confirmed. Follow the instructions given in this video and double spend those coins which are still in your wallet and have not been sent due to 0 confirmations. Add a fee of atleast 0.0003-0.0005 to get the transaction confirmed fast.

I am stuck with my transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/1b2b6d5692df0b166e383de46947efe0c5f35044eed9d8d4df0ffb1546304993

It's not getting confirmed since 2 days now and I did a mistake by adding a fee below the recommended one. Should I just wait or is there any chance of it getting dropped by the network? Should I try to double spend it to the same receiver?

blockchain.info is not the blockchain, neither it is a full report of transactions going through the bitcoin network at any given time.
There are plenty of reasons explaining why a transaction was sent by someone and you don't see it on blockchain.info.

My first transaction was unconfirmed for a week, then I had to stop Electrum and start it again. After that my transaction has 1151 confirmations! From nothing to a huge confirmation.

Is this expected behavior?

Electrum sometimes does not update its data from the server, not sure why but restarting it usually fixes it. Its not that there were 1151 blocks found in quick succession, but that your wallet was out of sync for almost 8 days.

To: Send to wallet 1ESz2tJ35T1VU9KA2JHHTjXEuWhP9Xgqj2
Debit: -0.01065500 BTC
Net amount: -0.01065500 BTC
Transaction ID: 3797806a3b79df6588222329c1641809577506a796f8cbc0dc4d67a3b857b678-000

As you can see, I sent the above on 14/06/16 and still have no confirmations to date.
I am using Bitcoin Core wallet version v0.10.3 (64-bit) and cannot update as I am running OS X 10.6.8

I sent with a small fee, but the tickbox "send as a zero-fee transaction if possible" was ticked.

Have read the pages in the forum and see that people keep giving the advice to cancel the transaction and resend with a higher fee or to double spend.

Cannot see any way of cancelling the transaction. Have looked everywhere within Bitcoin core several times and do not see any option to cancel a transaction.

I need somebody to explain VERY simply how I achieve this or how you would be able to double spend.

I have sent many bitcoins to other addresses since and had no problems, but I still have the no confirmations with the above transaction.

Can anyone help?

Don't worry about it. Eventually, the mempool will forget about the transaction and you can respend the inputs. You can also try doing a manual double spend. Next time, use a larger fee. 0.0005BTC isn't enough for a 20k bytes transaction. People with smaller transactions, like 500 bytes usually use 0.0001BTC+, so for miners, it is less profitable to confirm your transaction. When you resend it, use at least 0.003BTC in fees (0.00015BTC/kb) so it will actually confirm.

Yes, im waiting 5 days already but everyday, blockchain update received day.. I cant find the transaction in blockexplorer.com but blockchain always update it Sad

Dobule spend can cancel the transaction? Sad

Did I just get scammed here? Has this been double spent?

The fee seems sufficient but currently there are over 18700 unconfirmed transactions^[1] in the network.
Maybe you will have to wait for another hour or so.

I think electrum is not working, the wallet is guess work to what is actually happening in the wallet, i don't understand it, i am trying to send a BTC payment to an address but the person i am sending it to is not getting it, electrum dont even have support, they send you here to figure everything out which is not helpful, when the amount is showing red on the electrum wallet page, what dose this mean ? any body out there willing to guild a newby like me on how to work out how to actually operate electrum wallet so i can pay people with my balance which i have in my electrum wallet ?

Any help at all would be very appreciated thank you Angry

Electrum is working pretty well ... and about support , sorry but you are wrong too ... electrum is one of the most maintened wallet with a great support ...
- you can PM directly Thomasv , here on Bitcointalk , or you could go to Electrum IRC room ,on freenode, i assured you on the fact you will get all the help you could need ..

a good start should be here : http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/

Your transaction was pruned by Blockchain.info (which just means I can't check on the progress that way); so, what is the address involved instead?

I am using blockchain legacy wallet.
Do the wallet allows to redo transaction with fee?
I am actually put a fee for the transaction but i dont know when i send the connection is quite slow. Maybe my internet connection is bad. And suddenly i saw the fee is zero.

And 1 question. Will be bitcoin loss??

Hmm, you should convert away from the legacy wallet. Even the old wallet used a default of 0.0001BTC for the fee but this was manually overridden (don't do that). I don't see an obvious way in the legacy wallet to redo the transaction to add a fee; we need to research that. Worst case we might be able to load the private key into another wallet that does offer that feature.

After you convert, Blockchain says https://blog.[Suspicious link removed]/2016/03/16/introducing-dynamic-fees/ so it will calculate an appropriate fee depending on the current traffic. The speed/quality of your internet connection is not the problem.

No. Even without redoing the transaction to add a fee, odds are eventually the transaction will be included in a block so, no, the bitcoins will not be loss.

Thank you reply my post, Sir

Yes, someone in this thread reccomend me to use a private key to another wallet. But that one i am quite worry because i am not good in this. I worry anything will goes wrong.

Since everybody said the bitcoin will not be loss. I will be calm now. I just worry it will stuck there forever. But i think it wouldnt be happened.

After this case. I will convert to the new beta blockchain wallet to get a better TX fee. To avoid this case happened.
Thank you Sir for replying me.
Have a good day.
