I transferred my bitcoins from CEX.io to Gemini exchange but it has been stuck unconfirmed on blockchain for a while... the fee was supposed to ~ $110, but it has been over 8 hours. Can some good miners on this community help ?
I believe the tx number is:
e7651c62ed1b693a561b36f319de0184ee6ea408654994d1282279a2eace985c
Thank you in advance for all your help - and happy new years to all !
You have such a huge number of inputs that the fee you offer makes only 22 satoshis per byte.
I withdraw from cex.io they didn't give me any option for fast transaction...
Some miner on this forum offered to help for free - will see !
A gentleman, who is also a miner name Damir offer to help me and here's what he found:
Hi Damir: Thanks a lot for trying to help. I'm keeping this conversation on here so other could benefit from knowing my situation.
Hi again,
I accelerated your transaction from several Free Tools + Miner Tools. ( 6 different Tool ) 2 of them didn't accept it due to the very low fee. If you need proof, i can send all screenshots.
Your fee 20 sat/byte , size 40907 byte, which makes it 22 times less than regular fee. This is the reason they didn't accept.
I also tried to add your tranaction into the my pool operator but nodes didn't get it.
The transfer is very large and that makes 137 inputs / 16 outputs.
May i ask you is this from Cold wallet to exchange ?
But anyway let's wait 1-4 hours, if it won't happen, please let me know and i will try on Antminer machine.
I'm posting this to inform others my situation because I did my trade recently with CEX.iO ( located in England but perhaps being run by Indian or Polish immigrants) - though I think newly immigrant business in general are doing very well in the U.K. And the US. These people are conducting quite a shady business practice...they took on my bitcoins without any issues, but have done a terrible job at providing clear information and made my life and others very difficult when it time to withdraw your funds...I've read many nightmare story about they hold people funds for long time (up to months) and come up with excuses not to allow the customers to withdraw their money....So I made a big lost and purchased CEX bitcoin at 11% higher premium in order to transfer my coins back to Gemini. The withdraw was confirmed by Gemini but since CEX.io did not give me any options for fast transaction, my bitcoins are currently stuck in low transaction unconfirmed status...
Keep in mind I've been using Gemini to do all my trading previously and never faced any delay, none what so ever ! The longest was when I transferred my bitcoins to CEX.io and it may have taken ~10,15 minutes... but this is a nightmare...
