I have two unconfirmed transactions, one from one year ago and another from about 16 months ago. I am not sure if they are gone for good or if I can try something like a 2x transaction etc. I'm running bitcoin core, latest rev on a mac. I don't have enough in my wallet to even cover a double transaction. Any viable advice would be appreciated.

edit: it appears when I tried to send two separate transactions at the time, I never sent enough for the transaction fees.

  • I can't believe that. 16 months unconfirmed is just crazy. I sent 0.2 BTC with a fee of ~0.14$ around 5 months ago and it went through within 4 days... Do you have the transaction IDs? – hardfork Dec 18 '17 at 21:05

  • What client are you using? You may need to keep it running to make it rebroadcast on the network. – Pieter Wuille Dec 19 '17 at 07:15
  • hey guys using bit core on mac... – user69703 Dec 19 '17 at 13:43
  • also cannot duplicate as I don't have enough in my wallet? – user69703 Dec 19 '17 at 13:44
  • Just checked the tx number, and saw there is a problem with the length. It should be 32 Bytes hex (aka 64 chars). up to "9679b7...7a7eec" I have 63 chars, then is some formatting problem, but it would be too long with "71f4" at the end. Maybe get this corrected? – pebwindkraft Dec 19 '17 at 16:12
  • hmm, but that is a direct copy out of my wallet...what can I do? – user69703 Dec 20 '17 at 13:41
  • I couldn't find the transaction on any explorer. You can do a "-zapwallettxes" to remove the two stucked transactions. Seems like a fomatting issue on stackoverflow's comments, 2 zero-width space are added before 71f4. Seem fine when I divide them with a a space: 9679b7dc5b49e5584e1a2a38b21e11 ee263311959b80eb67dfb8277a7eec71f4 – Chak Dec 22 '17 at 00:48

Just create one more transaction from your previous address with current fees per byte actual value, and be happy.
