There was a big rise in the price of bitcoin in the last 12 hours or so which ultimately results in users paying higher transaction fees. Your transaction wasn't prioritised by nodes simply because others paid higher fees.

Have a look at this site to get an estimate of what fees to use at a given time. You can even use less than what they recommend

This site will show you the current state of the mempool and its size.

The transaction was now confirmed as we speak and I will advise you to always check the mempool status while you bech wallet next time for the best transaction fee before making any transaction to avoid delay in a situation when you'll need the transaction urgently

Unfortunately, the mempool is backed up right now by over 32000 transactions. You can go here to check where your transaction stands compared to other transactions. https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transaction/770d682a3c6226defe6588930fe0945a769ce8841bb0b3bef4ebb661b98ad7d1 This may take a while....

It could take up to a day. I have had some transactions take around 16 hours. I would not worry about it yet.

It's worth checking how many transactions are waiting to be confinmed by the miners.
When there is too many the fees are higher and you have too wait foe longer times.
Weekends is better for transactions, I suggest you to check the blockchain website before sending bitcoins.

high transaction volume that makes many queue, so if you want to be faster you need to increase your value of fee, if your fee higher i think your transaction is have a bigger priority in the queue, so you can get 1 confirmations with less time

Massive transaction volume friend, bitcoin blockchain can handle 7 transactions per second.

Oh, the fee is so high. $12 out of $72 means more than 16% of fee. With the increase of bitcoin price and transaction volume, the bitcoin transaction fee and speed are hot topics of bitcoin scalability.

Please post the real transaction ID to prove your claim.

You'll also notice that it paid a fee of: Fee per byte 463.422 sat/B
and it took 1,135 minutes to get a confirmation: Included In Blocks 494114 ( 2017-11-12 23:04:46 + 1,135 minutes )

Take a look at those users. They are all newbies, and possibly made to troll us.

Nevermind the newbies... it's the Sr. Members, heroes and legendaries who don't seem to know some BTC basics and are likely "bought" accounts that bother me Roll Eyes

But the point is did he really pay $72 in fees? I believe it was only $12 at most, but correct me if I am wrong.

The longer confirmation time might be caused by miners taking a longer time than average in finding blocks. That also happens from to time to time. Especially now that some miners point their hardware back and forth to Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin.

Well 12$ is a quite huge fees quite astonished to see transaction with such a significant fee still unconfirmed. I think the block size problem is getting serious or may be miners are making such decisions voluntarily to increase fees.

What matters is the fee/kb. And indeed, the network is very busy. Just look at the mempool size: https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx and keep in mind that normal is usually under 10 MB.
Post your transaction ID and we can give more details. Also an idea would be to search around for the threads where people offer to accelerate transactions and ask them to help you out.

I think he/she already paid high transaction fee i.e 12$, may be it would be only due to congestion in network nothing else.

This one is now the best possible solution to accelerate the transactions, i have also seen some of the threads offering services like this.

No, the transaction volume is very modest, lower than usual.

Are you from another parallel universe or something ??
The mempool normally has less than 25k unconfirmed transactions at the normal times.

Right now there's more than 166k unconfirmed transactions with a crazy rate of 14.35 transactions per second !!!!!1
It's usually doesn't even reach 8/s.

https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions

This takes us back exactly to when the conversations about applying segwit2. What did they do back then force it ? Scam and jam the bitcoin network so hard in order to show that it sucks right now and needs to be changed.

When they got what they want, they stopped their attacks. But now after the fork got cancelled, they're doing everything in their power to prove it one more time to the public.

This is totally clear. And don't come and tell me that there's no such thing as attacks or whatever. The fees have been so stable through the past months AND that is when the price was soaring so hard with a lot of people interested in bitcoins.

Don't tell me that somehow magically a few days after the fork is cancelled and the price went down, more transactions occur ? Doesn't make much sense.

so upon that lots of stories.what really happen to the OP's problem?why not just answer the topic why need to have grandstanding were here to help not to be centered of attraction.lets just be direct to the thread thats what the OP's need a concrete answer for his concern

Please post the real transaction ID to prove your claim. I believe most of those complaints from users on paying high fees and the extra long confirmation times are from the "Ver brigade".
