Transaction stuck in the Testnet #239

Hello
I am sorry if this is not the correct place, but Unisat's website doesn't have a single support contact option. Seems someone simply forgot people may wish to get in touch to ask stuff or report issues. Perhaps this is an issue to resolve. Providing a support channel, preferably via email is something always desiarble.

I tried to deposit some tBTC to a tBTC wallet this time after quiet a long time the transaction wasn't confirmed. The tBTC were deducted from my wallet (Unisat). I know Bitcoin testenet may take longer but there has been quiet a while and the mempool it says it is still unconfirmed.

On the Unisat wallet there is no option to Child Pays For Parent, if that it the problem.

Any ideas of what can be looked at any ways to try to avoid it ?

Thanks

Hello @Annawoody
Thanks for trying to help. I reached support and they said the same thing about "Transcript error" but didn't explain what that means and how to avoid it. I'm not sure, but one thing that may be a reason is the Unisats may have set a lower fee and the transaction seems to have got stuck for hours until was able to get confirmed. It got confirmed later on, but after several hours.
I tried to make a new transaction and it shows there are no utxos available

One thing that has been happening lately is that the testnet seems to be overly busy and it be the case the amount I am trying to transfer is below the amount to pay the transaction fees (see screenshots below).

@ffrediani the fee rate in mempool is down now, you could try again.

@GGG888GGG thanks for let me know.
When I went to try the fee was already back at ~100sat/vB. I guess it needs to wait a little more or maybe try to do overnight during less busy times.

Seems even the Testnet is having some hardtime to process transactions. The amount of Unconfirmed transactions is substantial at the moment.

Seems the issue never goes away and the fees remain quiet significant for Bitcoin Testnet. The issue is that there aren't much faucets available in order to even cover transaction fees.

Seems it goes nowhere.
At the moment the fees are as high as 671 sat/vB and seems to not willing to go away.

Do anyone have any ideas of alternatives since it is not that easy to get much tBTC via faucets and the little you get would be wasted on transaction fees.

Problem is that some test platforms only support Testnet3
