Hi,

I'm not a total newbie, but idiot? Hell yeah!

Using Electrum, I sent about 0.1 BTC, probably with a very low fee. Now the TX displays as unconfirmed in Electrum client, but is nowhere to be found or traced.

ID: 83e89a130ee5524adf85a28feeb5290cd0aa667016d2c6c1b7b875d73823a3eb

It's been stuck like this for nearly 3 days.

Any ideas?


EDIT: Could it be because of double-spending? I had already sent those a couple of days ago, then they re-appeared in my wallet and I re-sent them, but -- maybe -- they just re-appeared in my client without miners losing up their grip (WTF?)

Either way, now I'm stuck.

Possible a glitch in Electrum.
Close it, move your wallet file, which is at %appdata%\Electrum\wallets somewhere else (don't delete it!), open Electrum and restore from your seed.
Alternatively, chose another server, close it and it should be fine too.

It looks like the transaction you provided was rejected by at least Blockchain.info's node with the following error message:
Quote
Transaction rejected by our node. Reason: An outpoint is already spent in [DBBitcoinTx{txIndex=219642845, ip=143.107.116.5, time=1486663997, size=226, distinctIn=null, distinctOut=null, note='null', blockIndexes=[], nTxInput=1, nTxOutput=2}] [OutpointImpl{txIndex=215288751, txOutputN=0}]

It does seem to be related to a double spend possibly as it mentions the output is already spent. You could try to setup a new wallet by restoring your seed to see if it rescans and removes the invalid transaction. Not sure if/when the transaction will drop out of Electrum on its own.
