Well since the average user here can’t grasp the concept of bitcoin transactions recently and need to make their own separate thread, I’ll help explain below.
Q. Will my bitcoin transaction confirm?
A. Probably, but it will take days or a week+ during this back log EVEN WITH a high fee sometimes.
Q. How do I know if I sent a good fee?
A. Use this website: https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/
Q. How can I avoid fees?
A. You really can’t, even if the wallet pays for your fee it’ll still probably be delayed. Deal with it.
Q. How do I make my transaction confirm?
A. 1. If it has been a week+, rebroadcast here: https://blockchain.info/pushtx
2. Go here 1 minute before the hour and fill out the information. Once it is the new hour quickly submit your transaction. https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
3. Try asking another member to push your transaction.
4. Read my Tutorial here for more technical information. (Note I don’t recommend this method at this current time) https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=5625650
Q. Why do I have a higher fee than the amount I am sending?
A. Because the network is clogged. People are paying higher fees and getting to the front. More and more people are doing this and causing even more of a back log for lower fees.
Q. When will my transaction time out?
A. Depends on the wallet you used. You may want to ask the service to stop broadcasting your transaction if it has been a long time.
Q. My bitcoin is still unconfirmed from withdrawing or depositing an exchange, what can I do?
A. Understand there is a back log. Opening a ticket to support will NOT help. Unless it has been 1-2 Weems.
Q. Can I change the fee to higher?
A. Depends on the wallet. Even if you can, it’s not worth trying anymore at this point.
Q. My exchange has disabled withdrawals/deposits/registration, help!
A. Tough luck butter cup. Just be patient. https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions
Q. How can I sell my bitcoin without sending it?
A. Try to find an exchange with a wallet you can import your private key into. Don’t use that key again.
Q. How can I avoid this??
A. Easy. Don’t use legacy transactions or use Ethereum or BCH.
Hopefully people can stop asking the same question. Any questions not answered post them below.
