I am using local wallet with the bitcoin core.
Before, I sent 35000 satoshi (about 45 days ago) and it still not confirmed.
Today, I am experiencing that again.
I sent 10000 satoshi (with 1720 fee) and it still not confirmed.

Please check transactions.

why does this happen?
please help me.

you have included 0.00000225 fee for the first transaction and 0.0000172 for the second. both of which are extremely low amounts for normal transactions.

check here for more information: https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

but in short you should have included at least 13,560 satoshi for each of your transactions to be of high priority.
well OP don't expect your transaction to be confirmed very soon as you're setting up so tiny amounts of fee,i know that you're thinking maybe small fee is enough for small transaction like 0.0003 but it's definitely wrong and whether the priority of the transaction will be high or low it's depend on the current fees/kb,your transaction size,and how much fee you set

there's only 2 result,you will get the confirmation in few days or this transaction will be rejected and the bitcoin will be returned to your wallet
