Will we get our our btc if it is taking too long to get a confirmation? Because i was refunded. So i just want to know whether it is because of Blockchain.info wallet or is it normal?

~~MZ~~

In simple terms, yes. The network will just forget about this transaction and the coins will not be spent at all. It is normal, as transaction are usually dropped out of mempool after a period of time which it is unconfirmed. Blockchain.info wallet typically stop broadcast after sometime, so the coins will return to the wallet. If the transaction is continuously broadcasted, it will not be returned to your wallet until it stops broadcasting, depending on your client.

Thanks! So what is the estimate time of stopping broadcast? 2 days? OR does this depend on the transaction?

~~MZ~~

This depends on your client, some stops broadcasting after a while and some continues for longer periods. It doesn't depend on transaction as all transaction is broadcasted the same way.

Hmm... Seems nothing has changed. Should I hold out hope or just write it off and make sure I don't leave so little change behind next time?

There is nothing you can do other than waiting for the transaction to get dropped in the site's mempool.
There is no need for you to write-off the bitcoin as the transaction will for sure get dropped, sooner or later.

that's right, be patient.

A bit more info would be good. Refunded in bitcoins or what sort of transaction? In general if your transaction is removed from the memory pool after a while because no miner picked it up, then these inputs will be available to you again.

Or you could double spend the input.
That would "cancel" the pending transaction by making it invalid, right?

Congratulations !!! You Tx has been included in block 00000000000000001b6ae401ed50b19a1fcb358e6e578511a5544540cb45873f mined by Eligius.

So Blockchain.info does not "cancel" a transaction after 24 hours.

No client can cancel any transaction. It all depends on pools if they want to include it into a block, if no pool wants to include it, it will be forgotten from their mempool. Some clients rebroadcast them for a period of time before stopping, some don't. You have to be lucky for pools to not include your transaction into a block until it is forgotten by the network and your client stop broadcasting.

Did u set this small output yourself or blockchain.info did it for u internally ?

All I know is I sent the money and left enough to cover the fee in my account like I've done every other time and now it's just sat in purgatory Sad

Yup and that 0.000002 change output falls in the dust region.
The rule treats your "normal" outputs the same way as your "change" output.

Good to know.
Is it treated the same because the network can't distinguish between a normal and a change output?

Oh,you have sent 0.000002 BTC.Maybe it will confirm or not.If not blockchain.info will cancel your unconfirmed transaction in 24 hours or so.

There is a 5460 satoshi dust output rule in bitcoin that transaction with such small output will not be relayed to the network.
You should avoid creating such transaction in the future.

This Tx has sent 0.1563 BTC from 1DnkqQRnc2JZWEUngdPkEPiYp214qJYvhV to 15fUbcSY5knT8rCrATee3RiU54LmSKxMc5. It seems that 0.000002 BTC is the change to his own address. The Tx paid 0.0001 BTC mining fee as per blockchain.info.

This

edit: I think I understand what's going on. So really my best hope is just to wait it out and the BTC should come back.

If you try to push such transaction on your bitcoin-qt, you will receive a warning "64: dust (code -26)".

I can only seem to find it on blockchain.info so does that sound like something has herp derped?

That is a bit unexpected, though it is possible in certain cases. Can u plz post you Tx Id so that we can check it independently ?

Yup a TxID will be helpful.

If you cannot find the tx on block explorers other than blockchain.info, it may indicate that bc.i has failed to broadcast the tx to the network.

Did you pay a transaction fee?
Blockchain usually tells you if you need to add a fee.
If it's an important transaction I recommend you pay the fees.

Yeah I'm using blockchain.info. It's not a lot of cash but it's never nice to lose anything. I'll guess I'll just wait until tonight to see what happens. Thanks, I've moved coins around a few times without any hassle this is the first time anything like this has happened to me!

U might like to check the confirmation of your tx id on the following block explorers...

Hey I was moving coins from one wallet to another last night and it's stuck at unconfirmed. I was moving it to a time sensitive wallet and it's now expired, I've checked the transaction and it's STILL stuck at unconfirmed. Is there any way of me reclaiming this or is it gone forever?
