Unfortunately there is nothing we can do here now, we just have to wait.

Hopefully in the future we might have a RBF transaction support to bump the fees in these cases.

Hello,  
For curiosity, how much fees did you use ?  
(Fees were \> 50 s/b quite all the 24 last hours.)

You can see the mempool here : [https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,24h](https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,24h)  
… your transaction is not alone waiting

Unfortunately this is not a withdrawal transaction, it is deposit tx.  
Fees were automatic, so naturally the transaction is stuck due to an unexpected rise of mining fees needed.

If it was a withdrawal fee, we could have use a CPFP method to bump the fees, this way a double spend or simply waiting is our best option.

Trade will never fail, as far as I know, it will stay waiting for confirmation.  
You can open a ticket with cmd+o at any time, but the transaction might confirm before the dispute is resolved.
