... and it is confirmed. You never know, some miners don't mind no-fee transactions.

<p>Today I sent 1.5 BTC to an exchange but forgot to add a transaction fee, the Qt wallet didn't even prompt me with one and I just clicked on Yes. Now <a href="https://blockchain.info/tx/7242efd299b3fe2dae04567b4778bb89cacd873a71b1ac16498e7014509bb7a2" rel="nofollow">it's been over 2 hours</a> and it's not confirmed (as you would have guessed).</p>

<p>I kinda needed it to reach the exchange quickly (I know, my fault), but now is there any way to speed this up or do I have to wait it out for days to arrive at the destination?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-04-02)

Today I sent 1.5 BTC to an exchange but forgot to add a transaction fee, the Qt wallet didn't even prompt me with one and I just clicked on Yes. Now [it's been over 2 hours](https://blockchain.info/tx/7242efd299b3fe2dae04567b4778bb89cacd873a71b1ac16498e7014509bb7a2) and it's not confirmed (as you would have guessed).

I kinda needed it to reach the exchange quickly (I know, my fault), but now is there any way to speed this up or do I have to wait it out for days to arrive at the destination?

Thanks
