Title: Getting money to SR account
Post by: STfish on February 13, 2013, 12:54 am
So I sent my bitcoins to my SR address, the transfer has been "confirmed" 4 times on blockchain, yet on my SR account it still says that my balance is 0..? Am I just being impatient? Or did I some how lose my bitcoins in the process? Any help/advice would be great!

Thanks,
STfish

Yea it's just a patience thing  :P

It takes up to 2hrs your SR wallet to recognize the funds. Usually over 1hr.
Like you saw though, the transaction is actually instant. So if you want to see your coins straight away you have to send coins to your own personal wallet, then transfer to the SR wallet.

What mindmatter said. It takes a few hours for your SR deposit to show up because they tumble it through a few different wallets for your security. I doubt it would show up without 6 confirmations either.

in my experience it takes 7 confirmations before it shows up on SR

after 10-12 spam to 50 posts in a row,  a real one feels good.
