RE: Bitcoin unconfirmed transactions. Is it network overload?

in #bitcoin7 years ago

The Bitcoin transactions are stored in a node's memory pool for 72 hours by default, though some nodes are configured to keep mempool transaction indefinitely. In any case, a transaction will simply return to the mempool if it is still being broadcast (as transactions usually are until they are confirmed). Normally it takes you around 2-3 days what I saw in past and had on my own.

Sort:  

As my wallet (MultiBit) is running on the PC which is switched on 24/7 then:

  1. It means the transaction are constantly broadcasted.
  2. If I will switch off MultiBit and come back after 72h transactions will be cleared and BTC returend to the wallet?
