Blockchain.info shows it on the transaction details page.

Yeah, just click on the transaction id and it will tell you an estimate of your queue priority and when it guess you'll be included in a block.

You can see the queue position is 631, and it's predicting it'll be included in 19 minutes (2 blocks).  Higher priority transactions will bump you up.  But it'll go eventually, shouldn't take more than an hour I'd hope.

Where can I see the queue position?

EDTI2: about 1 hour and 22 minutes passed since the transaction started.

I've had transactions take a day or more before, so only taking a little over an hour isn't too bad.

That is really helpful, where can I see the queue? I'll have to play a little more with the block explorer Smiley

@Remember remember the 5th of November
"Those that don't have enough funds can't send money at all, unless they modify the client, in which case it will be rejected by the network."

I see. Thanks.

So I'll check again after another hour.


EDIT: just saw 2 confirmations, yes!  Cheesy
thank you guys for your responses!

Could it be because the sender dont enough fund to make the transaction (I know, the block explorer shows 0.8, I just don't know what to do, this kind of situation should be in FAQ, I search and nothing came back, so frustrating!  Cry)

So, I just have to wait? how long should I wait?


EDIT:

I just saw the response about the low priority of the transaction. Thank you guys!

Don't worry, your transaction just has quite low priority. The output from which your bitcoins are sent is very young: just 15 confirmations at the moment, and value is rather small, not very small though. There are plenty of transactions waiting to be included in a block. Your transaction will be included as well.

Well, the TX uses a big output, so that's not the problem, but the problem would be that the output of 0.80BTC which were used for the 0.59 BTC transactions is still not mature enough, and perhaps the fee is a bit low, but still there's a fee.

Hi,

 I'm not a frequent bitcoin user, so this may be just a "nothing" but it is making me nervous not receiving the funds since I urgently need them. Here is my problem:

I withdrew about 0.59 BTC from one exchange to another, the transfer is shown here:

was sent(boradcasted) in block 243125 (or 243124)

https://blockchain.info/address/1LDp8k28cKgi5wqRcw7ykLM6kjeWPKurV9

but at least 3 blocks has passed and the transaction still hasn't been confirmed (0 confirmations).

is it normal?

if it's not, what can I do to get my BTC back?

Thanks
