Guys, I made a mistake today which I never made before and later noticed that there thousands of transaction which are still stuck in the mempool.
The question is With the simultaneous increase in the numbers of unconfirmed bitcoin transaction today, is there a way to stop an unconfirmed transaction sent using electrum wallet while the "Use Replace-By-Fee" was not set?
Well, yes. You'll need to use the private keys that are associated with that transaction/input that is currently unconfirmed, and sign another transaction, (with a higher fee.)The question is With the simultaneous increase in the numbers of unconfirmed bitcoin transaction today, is there a way to stop an unconfirmed transaction sent using electrum wallet while the "Use Replace-By-Fee" was not set?
I don't think you can do this with your electrum client, as they don't really appreciate of people doing this, but you can either do it manually, or use one of the many scripts online.
Haven't tried it myself, but i'm pretty sure you can create a tx with https://coinb.in/#newTransaction , then sign it with the privkey, and broadcast it, and hope that nodes will add it to the mempool (since it's a doublespend, some nodes might find it conflicting.)
Make sure to do it offline/safe environment.
If you have Bitcoin core synced, you can try this;
Normally no, unless you're pool owner or solo miner with huge hashrate where you can create and insert an transaction into your mined block which makes your previously unconfirmed transaction become invalid.
I've seen few people recommend create a transaction with very high fees which conflict with an unconfirmed transaction, but i don't know how reliable is that method.
Can't you doublespend? I don't think his transaction is confirmed.I've seen few people recommend create a transaction with very high fees which conflict with an unconfirmed transaction, but i don't know how reliable is that method.
Guessing the electrum wallet you're referring to is the app (Android) wallet, which in that case you can't double spend with higher fee from the wallet but if you're fast enough you can use some other wallet or software that supports that feature.

I think will confirm after some time, you can't do nothing, or will get confirmed or will get dropped from network but this can take some time. If you send it with at least 10sat/Byte you can accelerate free on Viabtc.
It 8sat/byte transaction and that how I usually send it with my Bc1 wallet .Edit : the transaction just went through but stuck for almost 11hours
