How to cancel pending/stuck transactions in your wallet
Have you ever had a pending or stuck transaction in your wallet? It doesn't surprise me that many people don't know how to "unstuck" it, because I was one of them until recently.
TL;DR Send yourself 0 ETH (or an alternative if you're on another network) with a higher gas fee and the same nonce as the oldest pending transaction.
Once the 0 ETH/MATIC transfer goes through, the network won't process any other pending transactions with the same nonce, effectively canceling them.
If you would like to know more details about how this all works, check out this Etherscan tutorial:

P.S. The tutorial contains links to support articles of the most popular wallets to show you step by step how to do it.
