Re: 2BTC, I know!

Re: the size of the fees, true, but here's the most recent transaction I sent prior to this and had no difficulty. And it's at 54 sats/byte.

https://blockchain.info/tx/eb479741b1ef7fcd6a434698c3d507ee67269b24b8e363d2d13a12538c64ee7e

That one got confirmed in about 5 mins. That's why I chose the size I did.  Clearly this was a mistake.

The question is this: is there anything I can do about this?  I tried confirmtx and viabtc. The former accepted it but I expected it to ask me for money since the size of the TX >400b, but it never did. I assume that means that confirmtx didn't actually queue the transaction. ViaBTC keeps saying "Submissions are beyond limit" which I presume means that they've taken their 100 submissions for the hour and I have to wait.

Do I have any other options?
