As stated before the fee is too low for even VIABTC to even go ahead and want to confirm the transaction, which shows something in itself. OP I would go ahead and just play the waiting game on it, it should probably confirm in a couple days but if it doesn't then it probably will never confirm.

I'd take this as a lesson to use a higher fee, sorry!

Yeah. Have a cold and couldn't think clearly. My bad. I've deleted that post.

@OP
As said above, you can wait 72 hours for the transaction to be dropped by most nodes so you'll be able to send again with higher fees.
Or you can try CPFP by sending the coins from that transaction with higher fee (just make it 0.002/KB or something).
Or you can contact quickseller or macbook-air. They can push your tx to F2pool's pool.

Can I use CPFP with Electrum ? I am a novice.. i don't know how i have to make..
I will try to contact macbook and quick.

Otherwise I wait 72 hours and everything will produce in the order ?

For CPFP you'll have to do it from the wallet that controls 3Dwuv77DCQ5EtpB9tbsPoEpJfME8YsCHvc. If the address 3Dwuv77DCQ5EtpB9tbsPoEpJfME8YsCHvc is a service wallet and that service doesn't allow you to set the fees then you can't do CPFP.

Not sure I understand the second question. Anyway I've explained it all above.


The wallet that controls 3Dwuv77DCQ5EtpB9tbsPoEpJfME8YsCHvc is KRAKEN.
If I understood your explanations : In 72 hours, I would have the integral of my btcs on electrum and I could send them again on kraken.

thank you for all!!

Thank you, I'm crazy about my stupidity, i needed it quickly..

I'll wait, you know how much time it takes? Approximately..

3/4 days or more ?


The accelerator should make Viabtc confirm your transaction in under 6 hours. 24 hours at worst.

What do you said by " it probably will never confirm " ?
I will lose 4BTC because of my mistake.

You won't lose your btc. If it takes too long to confirm your tx will be dropped from the network and you'll be able to send again. Read my post above yours.

The fee on it is super low, as said above. So next time if you'd like a transaction to go through faster / in a resonable amount of time think of paying a higher fee.

Though, their is a service called viabtc tx accelerator that may make the confirming time go faster. I've actually already put your TX in the accelerator but if you'd like to do it also here is the link to it.

EDIT: I'm sorry, the fee is too low even for this and I just noticed when I put it through.

I guess you'll just have to play the waiting game, sorry for the false hope.

Great thanks,3 confirmations 15 min after adding to accelerator

Hi guys ,

I am quite worried, I did not find a solution for some hours... My Bitcoin transaction has not gone through for 4 hours because I have accidentally paid minimum fee. I can't use VIABTC because my transaction fee is too low.
I use ELECTRUM.
ID TRANSACTION : 493e89ff3f8735958d3a5a6c2aaa96a68e68fd5b59ea03cc263e4cac0be8713a

Will the transaction be confirmed because fee is really too low? If no, What can i do ?

Thanks

Yes the tx fees are very low. You can see graphically more here https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/493e89ff3f8735958d3a5a6c2aaa96a68e68fd5b59ea03cc263e4cac0be8713a/. As far as I know after 72 hours you can spend again the bitcoins because the most miners mempools will drop the unconfirmed transactions which are 72 hours old. You post that you use electrum which has the functionality replace by fee. I haven't use so I can't give you any advice but there is a thread in the forum you could look at this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cancel-unconfirmedstuck-transactions-1742325 what ranochigo had written.

Your fee was waaay to low... Only 5 satoshis/byte. These days you'll need about 80-100 if you want to be included in the next block (http://bitcoinfees.21.co). Anyway, there's not a lot that you can do besides waiting and paying a higher fee next time  Tongue
