Unconfirmed Transaction?

When will I stop having these transaction problems and high-fees?

Bitcoin is working on upgrading to Bitcoin Unlimited, which will help with these problems and lower fees. It is possible that this network upgrade may be complete sometime this month (January, 2017).

Below is a public service announcement from nodecounter.com:

NodeCounter.com is of the opinion that the current "Blockstream Core" Bitcoin development team is not taking satisfactory steps to ensure the growth and advancement of Bitcoin in accordance with satoshi's original white paper.

Instead, Bitcoin is being transformed into a settlement layer, with high fees, and using a labyrinth of complex overlays on top of the basic system.

This development team has prevented the ability to freely discuss the development of Bitcoin by tacitly supporting censorship, and outright banning of developers and community members who differ in opinion. After over one year of stagnation, it has become evident that no change will occur.

The following article cites a thorough history with specific examples of the rampant censorship on the "r/bitcoin" sub-reddit:

A (Brief and Incomplete) History of Censorship in r/bitcoin, by John Blocke: https://medium.com/@johnblocke/a-brief- ... .e4gz25xy9

As efforts by the community to resolve these problems have failed, it is necessary to resolve them with a different approach:

By unsubscribing to /r/bitcoin, and subscribing to sub-reddit /r/btc you take a stand against censorship.

By running an alternate implementation, such as Bitcoin Unlimited, you are casting a vote against the current development team.

There are currently cryptocurrencies which perform better than Bitcoin, have more features than Bitcoin, have a more receptive and open development team than Bitcoin, and have a better upgrade path than Bitcoin. The single and only remaining quality that Bitcoin has over these other cryptocurrencies is first-mover advantage. In every other category Bitcoin is second.

The current Bitcoin developers are rapidly eroding this last advantage with poor design choices, a failure to understand basic economic principles, and promoting censorship by use of censored discussion areas.

Sincerely,

Another easy method is to just spend the change from an unconfirmed TX with a higher fee. Whenever I see the network being flooded, I just make sure to produce change from any TX I send, and then if need be I can accelerate it myself by spending the change with a higher fee on my next transaction.

Not perfect, but it works. I can set an unusually low fee which works most of the time, and when it doesn't, I just have to manually add a higher fee when spending the change. Simple and effective.

yeah I do not think it should also use Fee great for our transactions more quickly confirmed, sometimes when I do a transaction to someone I have to make sure first that I would not be at peak hours where the transaction is seen full-waiting was confirmed on the link below and also measure the speed of new block found

I thought I could get a quick confirmation without having to wait too long, at least I saw there were only 5k new transactions awaiting confirmed at least it was safer for my conduct transactions unless the full transaction there exceeds 2k new transactions and unconfirmed I need to be patient to do my transactions

Moving to BU in January??

Seems more like a dream than any reality...

What about the other 85% of the miners and nodes
Who are not moving to BU in January/ever ?

Great tool for those who have paid sufficient fee but the mempool is just clogged up at the time when you have sent.

Remember that you have to have a minimum of 0.0001 BTC/kb on your transaction fee to be able to actually use the tool, and the tool will only confirm your block when ViaBTC mines a block.

Indeed, this is by far the best tool to use if your transaction is stuck as "Unconfirmed".

Yep, the only setback is probably the 100 per hour limit, I wonder if ViaBTC would plan to increase than limit any time soon. Because there will be certainly a lot of people trying to use this tool and 100 per hour, thats just over 1 per minute.

But still, amazing tool. Thanks for sharing.
