Do u confirmed blockchain transactions expire? - swavy - Dec 19, 2017

i have a $900 transaction that’s absolutely fucked.

I sent it on the 7th, now it’s the 19th.

Is this going to expire?

edit: didn’t realize what section I was in my bad.

It doesn't expire, but it can take a while. Let's see the blockchain tx.

Used electrum to boost the fee but that transaction is frozen aswell.

I meant to do 500sat...

Confirms may get very slow if there are many "Inputs" also, like in your transaction.

Mine s 2.2k bytes at 50sat it will never confirm or take months.

Try double spending? That could push the main transaction and drop the one with the low ass fee.
