before ordinals, i could reliably send sats into cold storage for 1 sat/vb but that’s looking like a thing of the past now!

I am actually stuck with a transaction that won’t ever be mined. I have no idea what to do at this point rather than wait weeks or who knows if it’ll ever happen. Limbo
You can redirect the payment and upgrade the fee i think.
😮
Use a wallet that supports CPFP and/or RBF.
Sparrow Wallet works great for this, can easily bump fee as long as there are sats in that wallet still.
Thx guys , I did not initiate the tx and it doesn’t have that fancy flag to increase the fee
Does your wallet allow coin control? If so you could try to initiate a payment and select that UTXO as one of the inputs. Set the fee high enough and it will get mined with the original low-fee transaction.
Sooner or later this is bound to happen. L1 will eventually be too expensive for that usage. Adopt LN.
Casey made a good point on Odell’s pod that people that hate inscriptions should just work on lighting. Is a payments network running at Visa and MasterCard volumes going to be able to outbid random artists and single users for block space? Yeah, really easily. So go make that happen!
