So a few days ago, I was taking advantage of the low fee environment and decided to consolidate UTXOs in a couple of wallets. I initiated the transfer and chose a low-priority fee option. Didn’t realize it at the time, but it was only 4 sats / vB vs the going rate of 6 at the time. The transactions are still hung up obviously, and I can’t increase the fee because I backed into the highest possible amount / balance transfer net of the fee.
Is there anything I can do at this point? Just keep it out there and hope mempools clear one day?
Initiate another transfer at a higher fee and assume the first transaction probably never goes through?
