And, the "best timing" award goes to "GoGreenLight" pool for mining a block with only one transaction when the mempool is 33.5MB
And it was NOT too soon after another block, there were 2 minutes.
Yeah, old debate...

This is a great point to make when seeing the mempool so full, time and time again empty blocks are mined when there are plenty of transactions waiting to be confirmed with fees to be claimed sitting in the mempool.

yeah it is sad especially that now many full blocks top 14 coins.

and I did clear while I slept

this is 105 sats and it is about 15 or 16 hours and about 454981 to 455065 thats 84 blocks

So what is up with this one?

You're not alone.
I'm currently waiting for more than 14 hours for my transaction to confirm:

I'm glad to see a detailed explaination for this, here on the forum.

I don't always find the bitcoinfees.21.co site up to date with their fee predictions, close but could get better.

The mempool currently has about 45-50k transaction waiting to be cleared which is still a little on the high side. Hopefully your transaction will receive a confirmation shortly.

around 18MB currently are waiting to be confirmed even tho they have more than 90sats per byte in fees and the highest is 136satoshi per byte so your transaction is probably still low thus it takes time to get confirmation.

i tried to push your transaction using this service: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

but unfortunately hourly limit is reached already

The graphics here tell the story: https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx
You were unlucky. Those numbers are correct if the mempool stays at that size, but the mempool continued to rise and, as you can see, there a lot of transactions at 90+ fee, almost 16 MB of them.
So your transaction is no better than the bulk of them and.. it has to wait.
But I guess it'll be processed "any minute now" since the mempool rise seems to be stopped now.

they claim 101 to 120 sats should clear in 1 to 31 blocks or 10 to 420 minutes

https://blockchain.info/tx/44b6a27f5057ab7e294892cea4d527dd5077cd8bf0933c798512e3398001aa66

I would think 105 sats is not anywhere as fast as they say.

block trail has these 3 as stuck all are more then 100 sats per byte
