Hello guys!

I am in a bit of concern as one of my BTC transaction is stuck for two days. There are 0/3 confirmations yet. I am a bit confused as this never happened before. It usually would take few hours. But it's more than 48 hours now.

The BTC network is currently heavily congested, due to a lot of hashpower being pointed at BCH right now. This results in fewer blocks to be found, which leads to reduced transaction throughput, which further aggravates the network congestion.

Unfortunately there's little you can do now but wait for one of the following to happen:

a) Your BTC transaction drops out of the mempool, meaning the BTC will be back at the original address. This could take 1-2 days more.

b) Hashrate moving back to BTC, starting to work through the backlog and eventually confirming your transaction. BCH difficulty adjusts in 11 hours, at which point you can expect hashpower moving back to BTC.

Either way it's going to be a waiting game, but if it gives some you assurance: Your coins won't get lost, they'll either get confirmed on the address that you sent it too, or they'll "move back" to the address that you sent it from..

Phew, thanks for your explanation. I'm also having a few BTC transactions that stuck since two days ago. After I saw your statements - I will just wait for few more days...
