I think the right amount to send at the moment for it to confirm is around 60000satoshi/KB in order for it to be confirmed faster.

Ultimately it all depends on how fast you want the transaction to be confirmed. As of right now, you'd need approximately 90,000 satoshis/KB for the transaction to likely be included in the next block.

You can get a fee recommendation with the estimatefee RPC command or at a site like 21.co.

The transaction is 374 bytes long and includes a fee of 10,000 satoshis, which is rather low at approximately 27 satoshis/byte. 21.co estimates that a transaction with that fee rate currently will take up to 88 blocks to confirm.

Thanks. There's been around 8-9 blocks since it was sent  Kiss Cry

Congratulations (I think)!
Your transaction has been confirmed now and was added 10 blocks ago (so others' transaction fees must've been higher than yours at that point).

It's going to be one of two things:
 • No block has been confirmed since
 • The fee set was too low.

It looks like you have a transaction fee of 10000 satoshi and a size of ~330 bytes so maybe that's the problem (though that does seem quite a high fee).

The was a block only 8 minutes ago so that might not be the problem (sadly, you'll just have to wait for it to confirm, there may just be more transactions with a higher fee than you curently).
