Why is This Week so difficult to a transaction with MyEtherWallet?
1. Is it caused bitcoin is rocketed;
2. too many phishing; or
3. cost the gas price too high
Pending transaction due to Ethereum network congestion
Setting a higher gas price will instead help you to solve this problem because it makes the transactions confirmed with priority
I agree with you that the problem of late transaction may be interference with the ether network, even though I have raised 2x higher gas but my transaction is still pending.
