Transaction Broadcasting Timeouts in Ledger Wallet

By Brad BelickPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Broadcast timeout might happen for several reasons, like outdated Ledger firmware or congestion, which can be frustrating for users. These delays can pause your crypto activities, leaving you wondering and helpless.

Whether it’s network congestion, transaction fees, connectivity, or firmware updates, this post will provide the information needed to ensure smooth transactions.

To fix this

Please download the last update of Ledger Live Application:

  1. Ledger Live for Windows 10/11
  2. Ledger Live for MAC
  3. Ledger Live for Android
  • Network Congestion: The blockchain network you are using might be overloaded with transactions. This can happen during periods of high activity. There’s not much you can do about this other than wait and try again later. You can check online for information on the current network congestion for the specific blockchain.
  • Low Transaction Fees: Some blockchains prioritize transactions with higher fees. Try increasing your transaction fee to incentivize miners to include it sooner. Ledger Live, the companion app for your Ledger wallet, might have an option to adjust fees.
  • Connectivity Issues: Make sure your Ledger device is properly connected to your computer and Ledger Live is running smoothly. A poor connection can cause delays in broadcasting the transaction.
  • Ledger Firmware Outdated: Outdated firmware on your Ledger device might have bugs affecting transaction broadcasting. Check for and install any available firmware updates for your Ledger device.
