Topic: My Ethereum transaction has been pending for over a month - page 2. (Read 551 times)

This has happened to a lot of people, and it keeps happening. If you don’t want to be experiencing problems like this, the best thing you should do is use fees that are enough to get that transaction confirmed. For example if you’re making use of the Blockchain wallet, when sending your ETH, you will see the fees are divided into about four or three types, there is the lower transaction fee, the priority, and the custom fee.

If you use the custom, it is going to let you set a custom fee, but I don’t make use of custom fees, I just use the regular and priority; priority is for when I’m in a hurry to send the money and regular is for when I am not in a hurry. If the fees are too high for you, that’s because the network is kind of too much occupied, you can leave it and try later. One thing with your transaction getting stuck is that you won’t be able to send another transaction since ETH has what is called nonce to help avoid double spending.

As for how you can fix this, you said it’s been fourth days, so if you check MetaMask the – speed up – button might have appeared by now, when you click the speed up button you can resubmit the transaction with higher gas fee for it to be confirmed. But you can also cancel it if that’s not working for you. There is a blog on ETHGasStation.info that explains this, you send 0.00 ETH with same nonce and the 0.00 ETH gets confirmed and the old gets cancelled.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant, there are big differences between the different exchanges and I don’t know why, at least on Myetherwallet.com you can control the fees somewhat as you can reduce them by reducing the gas required for the transmission, but in Poloniex and Binance exchanges these fees are fixed and cannot be Control it and it should be paid in full.

but this transaction can also speed up or canceled, but you have to pay a little. I had this problem several times already. Ethereum is in big trouble now

Gwei is fee on Ethereum network, it is not a transaction.
Denominations of Ethereum

You can check and find good Gwei for your transaction with Tx calculator
ETH/ERC20 - Check and select good Gas price and What is Ethereum gas?

it could be that when you make a Gwei transaction that you are using is not suitable so that your transaction is stuck, with very high gas currently reaching Gwei 200, and you are using Gwei far below it so that it can make your transaction process stuck and not run, and I am a little surprised by expensive fuel now, what happened ??

The reason that his transaction was congested is the gas fee, he probably set the gas fee too low so the transaction was not confirmed. As long as it increases gas charges, I believe everything will go well

polo has a high fee , thats why i dont trade on them  but you said mew is higher than both ? how come when your the one that sets fee  ? never used mew for a long time but i think thats how it works before  

. idk if they add new features where you can send automatically using the fee that they set  . we dont want our transaction to look like the op , thats why i wont complain for the fees or we can wait for the value of eth to go down to save fees

Regarding ETH pending transactions because the Gwei you are using is too low, I recommend at least 150 Gwei for transaction fees.
This happened since DeFi projects hype, making ETH network slower. Now please replaced the ETH of your pending transaction.After
that, increase the transaction fees to be higher, my advice is above 150 Gwei. Hopefully your ETH transactions are not pending anymore.

All coin will be like that, more and more people getting interest to the coin then there will be an impact for the transaction fee.

Like has happened in ethereum coin, I found interesting article in cointelegraph and you may need to see it for further information.

And seem like the increasing fee in the ethereum hashrate will continue since the DeFi project has been popular and many developer who will take it as an opportunity to create new DeFi's project.

I didn't know it could be that long, I thought if you send it and it doesn't have enough, it just doesn't get picked up and returns back to you, didn't know it could be hanging in there for over a month and not be with you nor be in the wallet of wherever you sent, that is a new information. I would say the best way would basically be waiting right now for this ethereum transaction cost thing passes, right now it is so huge that it has ballooned up to a whole new level of high, however I am sure that eventually that will pass and by that time your coins will be sent.

However if you really want to hurry it up, you could totally speed it up by metamask, if you fail it then just add some more and more eventually it will accept it because it would be worth it to accept it.

Yes, commissions on various exchanges differ from each other. Two days ago, I had to withdraw Ethereum from the Poloniex and Binance exchanges. At the same time, the Commission with Poloniex was 0.01 ETH, and with Binance 0.004 ETH. But on the same day, the Commission for withdrawal to Myetherwallet.com it was even higher than on the specified exchanges.

This is right. We all can see that right now the number of ETH transactions is huge! The reason is that people are following each other to buy ETH for holding. There is rumor about the pump of ETH in the market, that makes people rush to buy ETH. It is a common thing that when the number of transactions is high, the fee will be high as well. Also, because the pressure is too much, the time it takes to finish the transaction will be longer!

Not always, this varies from wallet to wallet, as well as according to the different exchanges, there are bitcoin wallets that have higher fees than Ethereum and the matter also differs between exchanges where there are exchanges with low fees and other exchanges with high fees.
Also, it is related to network pressure. You have to choose the right time to send. If there is high pressure on the Ethereum network, the fees are high and if there is no congestion the fees are low.

it looks like that is the standard these days . loads of people have transaction fees at the peak so they tend to manually reduce the gwei and it results to longer transaction periods as miners tend to mine transactions that are much more in gas fees than the regular or reduced gas fee.

I think using transaction accelerating services are an appropriate solution
yes that can be a good solution; but I think the minimal gas fees are widely sufficent to transfer his coins in a long period (more than a month as he said) at least it can take some days

Try to get gas fees higher, I just transferred some ETH today and I spent more than $ 3 in fees on it, and the transaction only took 5 minutes to complete.

Over a month transactions and still pending is very long. I have also experience like that sending transactions with very low fee it took me more than 8 hours that stuck in a network. I’ve tried using Metamask and add up a fee it went through and becomes successful transactions. It just takes I think 5-10 minutes it came to my wallet. That's true eth transactions these days is really expensive.

Actually, the main problem that occurs is because our desire to pay a small fee but behind it results in things that we cannot avoid that there will be a long pending because there are quite a lot of transaction queues and usually they don't see the beginning of the transaction but how much you give the fee for the transaction.

the effort is not to give a small fee, but if the one who does is the exchanger we cannot avoid it and please be patient. try is to use an exchanger who charges a reasonable fee because of course it's for our good so that we don't wait too long.

It will not get rejected but will be in pending mode for a very long time.. He said its already has being stuck for a month now and yeah do not expect anything when you use a cheap gas for your transfer as now the traffic are high and that made gas for transaction are very high while the cheap one will get stuck for a long time. Try to cancelled your transaction i think there was a lot of tutorials out there on youtube to do that.

I've seen this happened twice on my side, the transaction will later get rejected but if you want solution you should deposit fresh eth into your ethereum wallet address and leave it there, the network will take some eth to the transaction approved
