it confirmed like 10 hours after. What a relief. That's a crazy long wait for no miner fee.

I've had this happened to me as well when moving funds to BTCJam recently. It took about 12 hours to finally show a confirmation. No worries though, I've never had an instance where the funds never actually have gone through...just a delay every now and again.

If you used blockchain it's even better, because then it's very easy.

You can export you private keys from them.

Import them in any other wallet and send them.

Or import them to Gox --> make a new wallet --> send your coins there.


But wait some time before that. Maybe it will confirm.

No,

if it only has a few inputs it will confirm sooner or later.

If it wont confirm, wait at least a day and then use pywallet to remove this transaction from your wallet. Then you will be able to spend it again.

- If you are using BitcoinQT that is.

Unfortunately it was blockchain.info... Thanks for the help. I guess I'll just wait a day.

It's been 3 hours and no confirmations. Am I screwed?
