On my node using RTL, looped out some sats and is stuck in the mempool for 2 weeks now (1sat/vB…)..
I’ve tried RBF, CPFP, nothing works.
Will it eventually time-out and come back to my node, or is there a chance it gets stuck forever?

It will get pruned and return to your node. I’m honestly surprised it hasn’t already. The default setting in Core is 14 days, and most major mempools either use this or fee based pruning which would have it leaving sooner.
Is a bit less that 14 days, let me give it a few more days.. That would be great if it comes back!! 😂🙏🤞🏻
I had somethingvsomilar happen. Looking fwd to mempool accelerator helping these weird situations where cpfp and rbf dont jive perfectly with getting a xaction unstuck. Hopefully its not super expensive to use like existing accelerator options with mining pools.
Did you fix it, did it come back knits own, or did your lose it?
that's surprising that CPFP doesn't work? i've done this a few times and it worked great for me. i've also manually bumped the fees via command line on LND on two separate occasions for channels closing and that worked too. when you say you've tried increasing the fee via CPFP, do you actually see the transaction fee increasing? do you mind sharing the transaction? you can DM it to me.
