Unconfirmed Transactions From a Year ago

-1

I have two unconfirmed transactions, one from one year ago and another from about 16 months ago. I am not sure if they are gone for good or if I can try something like a 2x transaction etc. I'm running bitcoin core, latest rev on a mac. I don't have enough in my wallet to even cover a double transaction. Any viable advice would be appreciated.

edit: it appears when I tried to send two separate transactions at the time, I never sent enough for the transaction fees.

I can't believe that. 16 months unconfirmed is just crazy. I sent 0.2 BTC with a fee of ~0.14$ around 5 months ago and it went through within 4 days... Do you have the transaction IDs?ndsvw 2017-12-18T21:05:16.730

Here is one: 9679b7dc5b49e5584e1a2a38b21e11ee263311959b80eb67dfb8277a7eec71f4user69703 2017-12-18T21:19:03.460

What client are you using? You may need to keep it running to make it rebroadcast on the network.Pieter Wuille 2017-12-19T07:15:22.143

hey guys using bit core on mac...user69703 2017-12-19T13:43:46.157

also cannot duplicate as I don't have enough in my wallet?user69703 2017-12-19T13:44:22.687

Just checked the tx number, and saw there is a problem with the length. It should be 32 Bytes hex (aka 64 chars). up to "9679b7...7a7eec" I have 63 chars, then is some formatting problem, but it would be too long with "71f4" at the end. Maybe get this corrected?pebwindkraft 2017-12-19T16:12:04.307

hmm, but that is a direct copy out of my wallet...what can I do?user69703 2017-12-20T13:41:29.503

I couldn't find the transaction on any explorer. You can do a "-zapwallettxes" to remove the two stucked transactions. Seems like a fomatting issue on stackoverflow's comments, 2 zero-width space are added before 71f4. Seem fine when I divide them with a a space: 9679b7dc5b49e5584e1a2a38b21e11 ee263311959b80eb67dfb8277a7eec71f4

Just create one more transaction from your previous address with current fees per byte actual value, and be happy.
