I had made a tx with blockchain.info wallet and it don't confirm in 10 days (it is not double spend, paying 1 satoshi fee) and I can't use the coins now. What can I do?
1 satoshi fee?
As far as I know, the mini fee is 1000 satoshi.
1 satoshi fee?=no fee at current.

There isn't actually a thing called "minimum fee" but there are "recommended fee". The least amount you could ever use is 0BTC. FYI:  546 satoshis is dust limit and a transaction shouldn't include less that that and using a fee less than 546 satoshi isn't a good idea than using 0 satoshis. I maybe wrong though.

Sorry for hearing that... Next time set your fees at higher levels...

If possible, try to resend the input that you use in your current unconfirmed transaction / make a double spend of it and don't forget to add the appropriate fee.
It should process your second transaction and ignoring the unconfirmed tx one.

First, post the txid (transaction id).

1 satoshi is not an appropriate fee. Either go without any fee if your transaction qualifies for exemption, or pay the appropriate fee of 0.0001 per 1KB of tx size (see here for details). In blockchain.info and any decent Bitcoin client, it is done automatically. In your case, it seems that you played with fire by manually editing and lowering the fee in 'Advanced' settings.

What you can do now about the unconfirmed tx is either:

  • Wait for it to expire (don't know about BC.info policy on unconfirmed tx expiry, you should contact them for details), or
  • Have one of the outputs spend the unconfirmed coins with an appropriate fee, i.e. a fee covering at least both transactions according to the rule described above, and then some pools implementing this "cascading" feature like Eligius should confirm it (however, it may be difficult to spend coins from unconfirmed transactions, you will probably need help).

I have no idea about the amount in your unconfirmed transaction, but if it's less than, say, 0.05BTC, it might not even be worth the effort, depending on your own standards (i.e. how you value the time that you will spend resolving it)
