My transaction id?

Your transaction has opt-in RBF enabled which is good as it allows you to send a replacement transaction from your Electrum. If you would like to continue with it, right-click on your transaction in Electrum and select 'bump fee'. You'll be given a slider to increase your fees to make it confirm faster.

Yes, it'll cost quite a bit extra as compared to your current fees but your current fees would result in quite a long wait before your transaction gets confirmed. If you'd like, you can choose to not follow the steps and wait for the transaction backlog to be cleared before your transaction gets confirmed.

Can you give me an example of how much I'll wait?

Bitcoin propagation takes seconds. Nodes around the network should be able to see that you've made this transaction quickly.

Confirmations, on the other hand is different. By verifying, coinbase is talking about confirmations. With 2 satoshis per byte, it would take forever for it to be confirmed given current network conditions.

When you say forever?  Cry

Can I somehow cancel my transaction then?
The backlog of transaction is huge and I doubt miners would get to your transaction anytime soon. Could you provide us with your TXID?

I just made my first bitcoin transaction of 10$:

Now I have a question. Coinbase.com generated me an address just for me, I sent the money from my electrum wallet and... boom! Immediately the site started showing "Loading your payment". How?? How did the network updated so fast?

Now it's writing this:


I put 2.2 satoshi per byte, do you think it's fine? I couldn't go more, not enough funds.
