<p>I have recovered my wallet from an old data file using Bitcoin Core. The wallet has synchronized without issues. I have tried to send BTC to at least two exchanges and neither transaction has completed. After the first transaction (going to the Coinbase Wallet) I waited 10 days and then tried increasing the transaction fee - no change. The returned stats code says &quot;Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool, abandoned.&quot;</p>
<p>I then cancelled that send and tried sending to Kraken and it's still processing after six days. The status code for this one says &quot;Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool?</p>
<p>Any ideas? Am I just SOL?</p>

I have recovered my wallet from an old data file using Bitcoin Core. The wallet has synchronized without issues.

After the first transaction (going to the Coinbase Wallet) I waited 10 days and then tried increasing the transaction fee - no change. The returned stats code says "Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool, abandoned."

I then cancelled that send and tried sending to Kraken and it's still processing after six days. The status code for this one says "Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool?

Any ideas? Am I just SOL?
