No confirmations after more than an hour

Just submitted a payment to an order on Hansa almost two hours ago and I haven't gotten a single confirmation. Anybody else experience this?

You probably need to send higher transaction fees.

See this thread

Expect plenty of backlog now and then.

I waited 3 days ago, and no one confirmation showed in 48 hours. after that the transaction was deleted and i sent it again with 2x more fees. in 50 minute it confirmed.

The transaction fees are exploding right now! Sometimes people have to send $5 or more in just fees, if they want it to be confirmed at all. To maximize anonymity, wallets implemented the future of using multiple addresses for both input and output (change wallets), but this just makes the transaction itself much bigger in size. And bigger size requires a higher fee.

This is one of the things that unfortunately went wrong with bitcoin at some point, as miners started to sort transactions according to maximum fees. If you use any other cryptocurrency, you can still go with just a few cents in transaction fee.
