I set it to 1sat    Tongue
 I tried viabtc accelerator earlier but it said my fee was too low.
Ah, I see.

I dont think I can go the RBF route because I'm the receiver.
Who is the sender here who set such low fee ?

I'm using a ledger wallet so I think there's a way to cpfp through electrum.
I dont totally understand cpfp but im reading a lot.
Its not that difficult. To create a CPFP transaction right click on the unconfirmed transaction on the history tab and choose “Child pays for parent”. Set an appropriate fee and click on “OK”. A window will popup with the unsigned transaction. Click on “Sign” and then “Broadcast”.

Thanks! How bad of an idea is it to wait a week or two while I slowly learn cpfp?
I think the transaction will be forgotten and returned back to the sender within 4-5 days if nothing is done Smiley
