Steps to speed up a Bitcoin transaction

Complete your initial transaction

We will use sending Bitcoin in Magic Eden Wallet as an example. Click the 'View Transaction' button to review the details in your wallet.

View transaction details

The transaction screen will display the recipient address, transaction ID, and associated fee. Scroll down to the bottom to find the pink 'Speed Up Transaction' button.

Set a custom fee

Clicking on the 'Speed Up Transaction' button will take you to the custom fee page. Here, you can set your sats/vB (satoshis per byte), which determines the fee you are willing to pay to speed up the transaction.

Estimate the cost

The custom fee page will provide an estimated cost in BTC and your selected currency. To speed up the transaction, you will need to make an additional payment. If you are satisfied with the estimated cost, click the pink 'Set Custom Fee' button.

Confirm the transaction

You will then need to confirm the transaction.

The confirmation screen will show the total amount you are paying to speed up the transaction. Click the pink 'Confirm Transaction' button to proceed.

Speed up transactions via history

You can also speed up transactions through your transaction history. Click on Bitcoin and navigate to the asset's history. Pending transactions will have the 'Speed Up Transaction' button easily visible, allowing you to expedite the transaction from there.

Always ensure you are comfortable with the additional fee before proceeding with speeding up your transaction. Paying a higher fee can reduce the confirmation time, especially during periods of high network congestion.
