    The fee is a little low. Optimum is 240 satoshis/byte right now and your tx is 134/byte

    Not that that should make it take 7 hours.

    Is it possible that it is stuck..rebroadcasting did nothing and the accelerator is saying submissions beyond limit.

    Not really. It will eventually go through or be cancelled.

    Hard to know how long but I'd say its more likely to be hours and not days.

    I'd wager that there is a unconfirmed transaction somewhere in your link causing delay but this site is very useful normally it is pretty accurate to track

    I think this is the transaction holding you up...once it confirms or cancels the one your asking about will confirm very fast....is there any unconfirmed ones besides this in your wallet

    So ...purchased again from xcoins...which is how i did it originally with the problem one...sent to blockchain....purchased from separate wallet coinbase and sent to blockchain...0 confirmations after 20 mins from xcoins but coinbase one got confirmed in 5 minutes...is it an issue with that wallet or because that theres still a stuck previous transaction?

    Why are you using xcoins ? If I had to rate them they would be D-...it's definitely them and I would avoid...I had a issue with a transaction with them And it took a week for them to get my funds back t was my first and last time using them...if you want peer to peer LBC or paxful is way to go

    7 hours and counting for me right now. 120 sat/B fee. Just curious if there is a way to see if this is normal network-wide delay or something specific to my trans.

    It's hard to tell quite often lately.

    I suspect, and this is really just a guess, that it has more to do with overload in the memory pool of the miner that first picks up the transaction than anything else.

    Bovada sent me 3 coins 14 hours ago that are still unconfirmed. Shipped those coins out to 6 different places. Everything is pending until Bovada transaction gets confirmed. Blockchain currently shows a backlog of 93,000 Unconfirmed transactions. Blah

    Edit: Just checked out of curiosity. Bovada used 120 sat/B fee as well. Going to take a while. Better grab a bag of King sized Snickers.

    15 hours for me now. Is there a max time limit before it gets rejected, or can it be stalled indefinitely?

    This is stretching longer than most delays now.

    Although a while back some people were in limbo for 2 days.

    No. I tried accelerating the bovada transaction here https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/, but still no confirmations. Blockchain is showing a backlog of 123,000 unconfirmed transactions now. This is nuts Lol

    I read it goes 3 days before getting rejected and returning to the senders wallet

    Bitcoin is so unpredictable. I did 2 transactions today and had multiple confirmations in about 4 minutes. I couldn't believe it. But of course when I deposit and need the money to clear quick it takes 3 hours. Frustrating. I really think it's just a gamble to know when it will go through. The wallets I use don't even let me increase the fee or anything.

    Yea. Still no confirmations from my Bovada payout after around 56+ hours now. Bitcoin is too popular now that these books need to stop being cheap with miner fees or this is going to be a big problem. When I received the funds 2.5 days ago I deposited a few grand worth of funds into several different books. Two of the books made the funds available right away even though the transaction had not been confirmed yet. One of the books I hit big on the first day and was up $1500. The next day I blew most of it, but it made me think. What happens if I hit it big on a book with a deposit that had never ended up being confirmed. If the deposit ended up getting rejected several days later because it was never confirmed in the blockchain would the book that I made a big run on honor my winnings on a bitcoin deposit that ended up getting rejected? This could cause a lot of problems in the future

    In general, if your deposit is dishonored so is all betting associated with it.

    But the scenario you describe, where an honest player sends a real deposit which never gets confirmed and is returned to the sender so bets are cancelled, just doesn't happen in real life.


    Although I guess with the current long confirm delays that could start happening. I somehow think most books would be sympathetic to that issue and make allowances though.

    Still waiting after 75 hours. Contacted bovada support about it. They told me they forwarded my blockchain screenshots to the withdrawal team and will get back to me within 48 hours
