Anyone have the same problem?

I used quite high gas, and the transaction is stuck for 40 hrs. The transaction was for the full amount of wallet (125ETH) so I cant do the traditional send 0 ETH as there is no gas left. Will the transaction eventually stop?

So far, I send ETH using MEW always works and only takes a short time,
so in my opinion, maybe the gas you use is less and it makes ETH you send fail or takes a long time, therefore I suggest that if you want to send ETH it's better to use high gas, so that ETH you send is faster and doesn't fail.
Exactly! Before making any transaction i always make sure the gas price using https://etherscan.io/gastracker this site.
I always prefer put a bit little gas than its demand in order to quick confirmation time of transactions. So far, I've no issue with MEW!

Yes, i did experienced it before that worse it took me four days to get my transactions to succeed on Ethereum network and it's really frustrating occurrences that the congestion of the network is getting worst even using high fees to it, still requires couple of days to complete it.  Gas fees are now in demand and it's a quite problem in my part because i cannot send my tokens to exchange due to high fees. As much i wanted to sell my tokens but gas fee won't allow me to do it. I guess i have to wait for gas fees to come down a bit for me to transfer my assets.

This is what you should do when this occurs next time, just import the wallet to imtoken2.0 and send out to your other private wallet, I mean send the 125 or whatever quantity it may be to another private wallet  and initiate a fresh transaction from the imtoken using the recommended highest imtoken default fee. This works in 30secs to 3mins.

I have come across the same problem, I have to transact for four days today. I wanted to transact up to their fixed gas price but it is still pending in my transaction. I can't make any withdrawals or deposits. I am also facing a lot of problems at the moment. Please let me know if you know how to get rid of it.

The same problem happened to me and the transaction remained stuck for a week, I sent another 0 ETH transaction to cancel the pending transaction, but unfortunately the transaction was also stuck and I have two pending transactions. After about a week, the first treatment failed, and the second transaction is now stuck.
The high fees for Ethereum are already very annoying and a solution must be found for this problem.

if you use metamask you can more easily cancel or renew with a higher amount of gas, but if you use MEW I can't help you to do that, but to my knowledge, for example, you send 1 ETH but it hasn't been confirmed, the funds you are still in a wallet not on the network so you can send the same amount but with higher GAS than before

I don't understand why people hesitate so much to increase the transaction fees and make the transaction.
In most cases, it hurts them a lot. They can't handle the burden of huge fees. You know, it really feels bad to see that the fee comes closer and closer to the amount of money you are sending as the network gets busier. Well we can't blame them either however they should understand how these things work. What would you expect to get from paying smaller gas Roll Eyes? You should bare the consequences of course or else don't do it.

I also almost have the same issue last time using my MEW which I have a transaction but after some time it happen to get failed so for me it is still okay because my token will still be in my wallet but when I opened again my MEW the token that I might have transfered is not in my wallet anymore and other than that it cost me some eth in my wallet even if the last time I check is a failed transaction.

Do you need all that amount in one go? Ethereum is really congested right now and there's nothing that you can do. When the transaction failed and you can send out again, try to send in batches if you really need the funds. You probably have to sacrifice $5 for each transaction though, and maybe more if it involves contract call.

There is this new hype around the defi things and so forth which means that gas fee's are higher but also they are a lot more volatile as well, they are moving around like crazy and one moment it shows that you should pay x amount of gas fee but in reality it is increasing like crazy behind the scenes so when you pay what you "should" pay it is increasing like crazy so the price goes up insanely high and yours stay behind because it was the bottom when you sent and now it is much higher.

This means that if you really want to make a change you should always pay higher than what you should, I use metamask and not mew but I always pay higher, that way I am always ahead of the schedule even if it goes up, because higher means even if it goes up that way I am still at the middle instead of high.

First of all why did you moved? If you wanted to move all those funds to your wallet which is more secure then you might imported the funds using private keys! Roll Eyes

Its okay, nothing to worry just buy some ethereum and initiate a transaction with the same hast with more fees.

Run into the same problem like a week ago.
Maybe it is just the heavy traffic of transactions since the movement had been really volatile.

If you did full gas and the push in which you make the same transaction then I don't think you can do anything anymore.
Just wait for it to be canceled and try again.

I also faced the same problem but my transaction was successful within eight hours maybe you made transaction with manual gas price that's why you're facing this problem you should try to make transaction on default gas price if you have enough eth for gas.

Transactions can be canceled if you make a new transaction, we cannot have 2 pending transactions out. I've tried it and it worked.

Have you tried to replace the transaction with higher gas fee ?
I think you used not enough gas fee. If you want your transaction to be done fast, you must see the gas tracker.
USDT token is using very high gas fee and you should follow their gas fee so your transaction would be done fast.

if I may know how much the cost of the gas you have used? have you checked this before making a transaction https://ethgasstation.info/? if within 2 days your request has not been confirmed, the transaction will be canceled

As you don't have any other balance left on your mew wallet, I will suggest you to cancel the transaction. MEW have the feature on it. You can either speed up a transaction with adding extra gas fee or you can cancel the transaction also. Please check out this article and follow the steps to cancel the transaction and then resend it with more gas fee. As you save 125 ETH it will not be a problem to spend some extra gas to save your time.

You have to set your Gas limit above the minimum required by ethereum network  because your transaction cannot be processed if your Gas is below the minimum required by the ethereum network. I already experience like what you said but after increasing the gas limit ,my transaction is successfully processed.

no, the transaction will continue. It is only temporary. I've been in a position like you, and a maximum of 3 days will continue.
but you don't forget to set the appropriate GAS so that it can be processed immediately
