**GoldRush7** · 02-17-17, 10:02 AM

Interesting - I will have to check this out. Thanks for sharing

**ezeemunee** · 02-17-17, 10:32 AM

Good stuff Optional. This does work although there is a ceiling. I'm not sure what these guys are up to but they were the main culprits in blocking Segwit.

Betcoin wrote a nice article a couple of days ago on the mempool. https://www.betcoin.ag/comment/82143

how long should should a person wait before a transaction is considered "delayed"?

Hmm. Good question.

I'd call 1 hour with zero confirmations delayed personally.

Unless of course no blocks have been mined in that hour.

Thanks Opti.

Is it just me or has the number of unconfirmed transactions been spiking in the middle of every week? At 70,000 right now.

**ezeemunee** · 02-22-17, 11:49 AM

I sent three BTC transactions the other day, all within 3 minutes of each other. After about 30 minutes with zero confirmations for all three, I tried the Viabtc txaccelorator on the 2nd and 3rd transaction to see if had any effect and did not see any. all three transactions confirmed almost simultaneously about the same after a little over an hour

**TopNotch** · 02-22-17, 12:24 PM

Anytime I have tried this it says "submissions are beyond limit. Please try later". Other people getting the same thing?

Saw that last night after I sent a transaction and thought I was screwed but I still confirmed in about 35 minutes. Was shocked.

Can also check this site https://estimatefee.com/ or this site https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ before you actually send so you don't run into this issue.
I know blockchain.info still suggests a really low fee, which is causing issues like long wait times (you can manually change it and ignore their suggestion when you send). Changed my fee yesterday based on these sites, $.30 extra, and confirmed in 30 min like it said it would. Unfortunately volume is up so fees are higher; if you don't want a long wait, just have to send a bit more.

I want to try this. I am 2 hours with zero confirmations. Where do I get transaction Id in mobile blockchain?

Not sure as dont use the mobile version but on the desktop version you get a link icon that looks like a box with an arrow pointing north east that says "verify on blockchain.info"

It shows the tx ID there.

**Kaabee** · 02-23-17, 12:39 PM

blockchain.info has a new look. for the life of me i can't find the link to unconfirmed transactions. if i google it i can find it but can't find the direct link on the site.

**ezeemunee** · 02-23-17, 12:53 PM

i've been sending with 0.000407 BTC fee and having much better success

**ezeemunee** · 02-23-17, 12:54 PM

thanks craigpb

**jmvargas1490** · 02-24-17, 01:01 PM

I have tried this and it was successful on the first time, i have tried it again but it says

" Submissions are beyond limit. Please try again later"

Anyone have experienced this?

**addd** · 02-24-17, 01:21 PM

So this doesn't work for as it says transaction does not exist. I have a payout pending with 5dimes now for about 3-4 days going. Its been stuck due to the low fee they had put on. It looks like it could be stuck in limbo forever. Called them several times and most give you the same response "money has been sent." Already tried rebroadcasting... says its already broadcasted. I can't even get someone to mine the transaction because it would first need to have the 11 transactions 5dimes sent to others before mine to be mined. Any help would be great.

here is the txt id

The easiest and most trusted transaction search engine and block explorer.

**chosen4th** · 03-06-17, 06:36 PM

this never works for me, just says transaction does not exist

**Optional** · 03-06-17, 06:40 PM

Thanks for feedback everyone.

Doesn't look like it's terribly useful in reality.

I got the same message. 3.5 hours and still waiting for my money to be sent to 5D.

**raiders72001** · 03-14-17, 12:49 PM

Adding .0003 to the blockchain default fee seems to be working.

Did 2 small transactions yesterday.... and I just did default. Fees were $0.35 each. Highest ever. Took almost 6 hours.

I think the highest I ever paid before then was around $0.18

Block chain raising defaults... and transactions moving slower.

**ThaWoj** · 03-29-17, 06:57 PM

just wanted to report ive been waiting over 5 hours for a small $100+ deposit to 5dimes from blockchain (after sending one for 200 with no delay just a few hours prior) and literally 5 minutes after trying the accelarator i received 1 confirmation!

would be an extreme coincidence if it just happened to confirm at that time without the accelerator...thanks Opti!

**thordin86** · 03-30-17, 03:17 AM

ya, it was probably a coincidence.
For the accelerator to work, the block has to be mined by ViaBTC

**ThaWoj** · 03-30-17, 09:34 AM

Dam, it was GB miners

Oh well. Of course it got confirmed just in time for me to get my losing flames bet in as well. Delayed one more hour and my caps/blues PL parlay would have been golden.

If you want to post the transaction ID we can see if it was the Viabtc servers who did the confirm or not.

EDIT: Just saw you already posted that it wsnt them.

Oh well :\

**puckk** · 03-30-17, 10:04 PM

make the fee for your transactions $1

There isnt much point going that far over the optimum fee.

There you can see how much fee the other paid in mempool, and pay accordingly

Submissions are beyond limit. Please try later.

**chosen4th** · 04-24-17, 10:46 AM
