Inscriptions not getting sent to mempool #1626

Open chipaaas opened 1 year ago

chipaaas commented 1 year ago

Issue has been plaguing me while inscribing. Not sure what causes it but on some inscriptions iIsend, the txns ever get broadcasted to the mempool. Have lots of funds just locked up because of this :/

raphjaph commented 1 year ago

When you do ord wallet transactions, do you see the transactions that haven't been relayed to the mempool?

chipaaas commented 1 year ago

Yes it gives me the txn hash but confirmations = 0. When I looked for the specific txn hash in the mempool, it returns as it not been sent yet.

raphjaph commented 1 year ago

How are you looking for the transaction in the mempool?

chipaaas commented 1 year ago

I have. It says transaction not found. Here's an example of one of these txns. I'm running on windows

The mempool is currently quite full, so if you are paying a very low fee rate other nodes won't let your transaction into the mempool. At the moment there is not much you can do until either the mempool clears or we implement RBF. You can probably also try to cancel the transactions with bitcoin-cli but I would not recommend that because you might lose your already made inscriptions.

chipaaas commented 1 year ago

The problem is that I've not been using any low fees. For all the stuck txns, I used a fee rate between 15-20

mzkworks commented 1 year ago

Same here, my last inscription takes 5 hours already :/ And I've set fee of 8.0 I've read another issue where ord sometimes do not respect the set fee and runs it as default. I guess this is what happened. Any idea how to avoid that for future inscriptions?

Can you find the transactions in your local mempool?

bitcoin-cli getrawmempool | grep <TXID>

I know this is old AF, but I'm in the same boat (but linux). Fees have been in the 50s for hours and I set mine to 65 about 4 hours ago. It does show the tx in that local mempool when I tried that command you suggested. What does that indicate?

raphjaph commented 8 months ago

This could mean that your local node is not sending out your transaction for some reason. Try restarting bitcoind. You can also check if you have peers that are connected to you by doing bitcoin-cli getpeerinfo

Thanks heaps mate, I'll look in that direction. Cheers for taking the time.
