I have a TX stuck, and seems the culprit is an INCOMING TX I got to my Komodowallet.
I was not aware of this incoming TX and spent an output that depends on that mysterious input.
So my TX has 18vBute/Sat which is ok, but this weird 860 Sat TX that has a large size a fee of 6 Sat/ vByte and is unconfirmed.
I have no idea where this is from, but here it is:

so this TX has 79 receivers that all got 860 Sat and 6 Sat per Byte, and has been stuck for 3 days now.
Effectively blocking 79 addresses with expenditure of
0.00068022BTC (17.62USD) and Transaction fee 0.00018345BTC (4.75USD)
...
fun fact: I tried

and the free servcie did not work bcs TX too large, and the paid sevrice.....
came up with a price tag of ..... 0.09BTC !!!!! $2100 to accelerate this TX!
Can anyone make anything of this? Is this some kind of mapping attack with dust (like cpl years ago),
Or is it a sabotage attempt to block as many wallets as possible?
Anybody else finding themselves in this trap?
This appears rather sinister...
Because as a matter of fact, my TX as well as the rest of the funds in my wallet now seem to be effectively frozen...
if this is is not the right place for this, please direct me there - I tried to find anything about this but did not see anything about it
