Title: First Deposit
Post by: madmonkee on June 26, 2013, 09:30 pm
Greetings!

I'm ready to make my first deposit here, feeling comfortable now to do so.
A question came to my mind: After clicking "Click here to make a deposit", reading and following the advices, and getting the BTC address where I should send the BTCs - How can SR know that the BTCs I send to them refer to my account? Is the address "personalized" for each account? Or did I miss something here?

Hope my question sounds not too stupid, but hey, it's the newbie section  ;)

Thanks in advance for a helpful answer.
Will check by tomorrow and hope I can make the first deposit then!

Cheers

The address is indeed unique to you. One thing to note when transferring the BTCs is that it can take quite a while for them to show up (can be 15 minutes to 24 hours in my experience).
