Title: BTC BLOCKCHAIN ISSUES (HELP)
Post by: banjo77 on August 02, 2012, 12:33 pm
Recently transferred some btc from mtgox,
This process usually take aprox 2 hours to arrive in SR account!
Last transaction has not arrived but has left my gox account i.e is marked withdrawn!
It has now been 2 days and nothing has entered the sr account?
I have been advised that it is still downloading in the block chain?????? and that there should be some numbers in the bottom right hand corner of were i am receiving it?
I am totally lost on this advice and would welcome some advice that could be relayed in laymans terms.

Thanks in advance!

go to blockchain.info and paste the sr address you sent to in the box in the lower right of the page, it will show you how far the transaction has progresses. If nothing shows up for the transaction that means mt gox hasn't sent it, it has happened before, they are masters of spewing bullshit when they fuck up.

I don't know if they changed it or not, yesterday it was in the lower right, but that may be my locked down browser displaying the page weird

I'm having a similar issue, been about 4 hours. When I go to blockchain.info it definitely shows up as sent. Yet, I haven't received it yet. It shows the amount of BTC I sent as "total received" but shows as 0 in the balance.

Hey I'm having the same issue when I copy paste it shows my transaction and beside it says the number of confirmations but I have no clue what that means still waiting on it to show up in my account though.

Generally it will show up after 3 confirmations, sometimes it can take awhile

yeah man still waiting on my to come though I just hit 60 conformation but I went and looked at my old transaction that went though and it had 1300 conformations so I'm guessing I might be a while.

Yea same here, I transferred from a wallet client and there are a slew of other going through the same thing.  Another forum might be related, but 2 days really? :-[

Another case here.
Over 6 hours ago, I bought 20 btc, but that went through(in 2 minutes too), but it has  had 43 confirmations since then .
Now the transaction from there to my SR address has 38 confirmations, and its red with -20btc, unlike the green status of what i recieved.
i dont even understand what this confirmation shit is, I just use the damn BTC system to buy shit.
What are the possible outcomes? cos that was all my spare money for a week.
EDIT:
i forgot, they even asked for a 0.001 fee because my transaction was low priority, if I didnt pay it, I could
be waiting up to 24 hours??? go figure.

I paid the transfer and still haven't got anything. Im new to this and very excited to the point that fees aren't really a big deal to me(more than willing to support the efforts). But I am now fustrated that I have willingly been supportive of the btc movement without seeing any benefit for myself. I sure hope this doesn't crush my first impression and the high hopes.  :o Please pull through Silk road or Block chain. Whoever can help in this situation.

I didnt mind paying the transfer either, and looking again, it was .005, its fuckall,
so i didnt care, if it helped speed it through, seems we've been taken for a ride.
I dont recall this fee thing before, man I hope Im wrong though.
