Re: Stuck transaction : "This transaction spends an input which is unconfirmed"

Ok so let me get this right, you sent btc from one address to another and when you checked on blockchain.info later it had 1 confirmation so you sent that amount to a 3rd address but it's not confirmed yet.
If that was it then not a problem but where i get confused is that you say blockchain.info dropped the 1 and only confirmation on the tx?
I have never seen or heard of that happening before, are you sure you checked the right tx first?

Blockchain.info has not always been renowned as being the best block explorer, have you tried others?

Someone sent btc to me. It got confirmation (if it didn't I could not use it). I sent that btc(with other btc) to another address and it stuck with 0 confirmation for 15+ hours. It have warning that this transaction spend input that is not confirmed. Also when you click show scripts and coinbase you can see that btc that stucked are from that first transaction. Becouse of that I checked first transaction and it say it is unconfirmed (you can see that when you go on links that I gave). In my wallet that transaction is confirmed with 70+ confirmation. More strange is when I try broadcast that first transaction it say it is confirmed. Also when I try https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ and I write my transaction id : 0748579ea3df24e2312d1ea53be28f7eae0c92f09c271e0721d5b716f134d142 it write "Transaction already confirmed" - very strange. So is there any solution for this problem?

Ok so i think i follow you now but still no closer to solving this confusing issue.

So when you sent the transaction from your Electrum wallet was the 1 confirmation you mention in the OP showing in your Electrum wallet or on blockchain?

this is a new function in electrum.
this is perfectly normal . i was surprised too the first time ..
when you receive a transaction marqued "unconfirmed parent" , you should also have a exclamation point in a yellow triangle...

once again: dont worry about it: this is normal . the transaction will be confirmed soon ;)

I don't know how many confirmation was there when I sent btc to other address. I only know there was at least one becouse when there is 0 confirmation I can't use that bitcoins. So it got 1 or 2 confirmation and I send it. I checked blockchain few hours later when I started to suspect something got wrong. So there is now transaction that is unconfirmed on blockchain (1st link in post) but on other placest it is confirmed for example if you write id : 0748579ea3df24e2312d1ea53be28f7eae0c92f09c271e0721d5b716f134d142 in https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ it write "Transaction already confirmed". Is there any way to cancel transaction or will it cancel automaticaly after some time?

I have not looked into that site viabtc.com yet and actually only first heard about it a couple of weeks ago so personally wouldn't trust what is says.
The site may say transaction confirmed but it shows no information at all, nothing about what block it is in or who mined it, strange.

Go with what your wallet says, maybe the mempool has backed up again i haven't checked but will do now.

My wallet says 90 confirmations ( that is more than few hours ago, last time I checked it was between 70 and 80) but on blockchain transaction is unconfirmed : https://blockchain.info/tx/0748579ea3df ... 16f134d142 .

Hmm that's right sorry, i really don't know, this has got me stumped.

I don't personally use electrum so don't know what adviseto give, but looking at the stuck transaction that has a fee high enough to get confirmed i don't know what to think, there has to be something I'm missing and can't think of now.
