I'm wondering if a Bitcoin transaction that is still pending can be declined or cancelled. I need to know if there's a way to stop a transaction before it's confirmed on the blockchain. Can a pending Bitcoin transaction be declined?

They continue to display as Pending until they garner the necessary number of network confirmations.

Network confirmations signify that the transaction has met the required criteria to be deemed complete.

When transferring an asset, users are prompted by the system to include a miner fee.

Occasionally, transactions may encounter rejection from the network, resulting in their unapproved status.
