You and 14 000 others. I am getting fed up with this situation. At least it looks like it's stopped, now just have to wait until the backlog clears...

I heard today bitcoin network was attacked by spam transaction. Try to increase your fee to 0.0003 or 0.0005 to prevent delay. There are 19591 unconfirmed transactions right now. Unconfirmed transaction increase quickly, so increase your tx fee may help you. https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions

Could be a miners cartel forming to increase the block values.. Won't be surprised if this keeps going from now on, forcing all of us to pay higher fees..

Why is my transaction still unconfirmed? I have sent 0.06 to Bitmixer.io and it's unconfirmed for more than 9 hours, but address will stop working in 3 hours! I don't want to lose my coins, so.. Is there any way to get them back?

these recent attacks on the bitcoin network is getting out of hand. it is becomming everyday event and it is hurting everyone . the only thing there is for you to do is that you can contact their support with your information and ask them to extend the 3 hour period.
i am sure if you provide this information to their support they are going to help you out.

bitmixer.io is indeed a legitimate service, I have used them many times.

My best guess is that transactions of very low amounts (and especially very low fees) are the ones with looooong confirmation times.  

Two examples:

1)  A few days ago bitmixer sent a small payment to ME, but it took some 40 + hours to confirm (as they sent the payment with a close to $0.00 miner's fee).  I did get it confirmed, but it took a long time.

2)  As a test during perhaps the worst of the "stress test" / spamming / attack (July 6), I sent myself a small transaction of about BTC0.005, but with a large fee: BTC0.0006 ($0.16).  The transaction was confirmed on the next block.  Reconfirmed on the one after that.

Notice the pattern?  Be a tiny bit generous, and you get your payments confirmed.  Be really stingy, and the miners will not bother confirming you when THEY are under attack as well, and not getting any payment.......

Calm down! Just wait a while! You wouldn't lose your bitcoin and the networkd will drop unconfirmed transactions out of the memorypool after 1008 blocks (~1 week) automatically. Or try the method mentioned by the upper user.

You have a low fee and there is an ongoing spam attack that is causing delays. Just wait a while for it to confirm. If you don't receive your Bitcoin when you should, contact their support and be sure that you have the letter of guarantee. Since they are a legitimate service, they should still send you the Bitcoin even after the time is up.
