You just have to wait.
If you want it sooner, set it up higher.
If your fee isnt attractive enough, they wont mine it unless they have to.
It all depends on what they want to mine.
Unless they have to?
Miners don’t have a choice?
When I drained my phoenix wallet and moved the funds on chain the fee was very low , almost zero, and I was thinking this will never be confirmed.
I started the transaction on a Friday night and after 24 hours I sent a note to phoenix support. They replied Monday morning to tell me there were multiple confirmation. I checked mempool and voila.
