ok so i know this isnt the first thread about this but this is getting really annoying now. i just added the recommended miners fee via my wallet which is around .000065 so now it's flagged as medium priority. obviously i wasnt aware of this shit show before depositing or i would have added a larger fee before anyone states the obvious on that one.
It says estimated confirmation in 6 blocks on blockchain, but it's been saying that since yesterday morning. Is there anything I can do here? Can I recall it and add more of a fee? Can i just cancel the transaction and return it to my wallet? Or am I basically fucked and my bitcoins are lost in the aether until all this bollocks finally settles down?
I thought the standard miners fee is 0.0002/kb. Unless your transfer is really tiny, you either put one too many 0's in your post, or your fee is under the standard. Over the last few days, I have been adding a 0.0003 fee at minimum. Not per kb, 0.0003 total. I've waited no more than 30 minutes to get around 3 confirmations with that fee. And that's less than $0.10, definitely worth the time saved waiting to make an order. Especially when BTC has been fluctuating up to a couple dollars a day recently.
