Could some kind person please give me some help?
I am an absolute dunce when it comes to understanding Bitcoin and its nuances.
Please be patient with me if you answer my enquiry.
In July 2017, on the recommendation of a friend, I purchased 2 Bitcoins, via Multibit. I have the icon on my desktop which shows up as version 5.1
After purchase, I did absolutely nothing with my coins - not even a login - I more or less forgot abut them.
Very recently in a conversation with someone else, I was recommended to transfer my holding to a personal wallet, since Multibit was no longer supporting purchasers.
I was able to login. It recognised my password and presented me with a front page headed "Wallet Startup"
Underneath four ticks confirmed that I was loaded successfully, connected to the Bitcoin network, synchronised and told "Wallet ready to use"
Upon exit from the front page, I had the option to transfer funds, but at the head of this second page I am told that my holding is "unconfirmed"
Although I have attempted a test transfer of a very small amount, this transaction will not complete due to holding being unconfirmed.
Does anyone know where I go from here?
If anyone can help, PLEASE keep to simple language - I am not familiar with any technical terminology.
