Sup all. Hate to be this guy, but I really want to log off and go to sleep but want to get this order in. Trying to get some DMT from rogerpete, I'm about $15.53 short (~0.3-0.4 BTC). Sent it to my SR account almost 2 hours ago and it's still sitting in blockchain as unconfirmed. Ugh.
BTW, any insight as to why the hell it's taking so long would be appreciated.
Peace

forgot to mention I'll pay it back tomorrow when my BTC finally shows up.
This bitcoin spam motherfucker needs to stop flooding the forum.

well i said fuck it and decided to go to sleep. then i started working on my post count.
now im almost at 50 and my BTC finally have 3 confirmations so they should arrive soon. its never taken that long before, i wonder if theres a lot of BTC activity right now and that had something to do with it?

Entirely speculating, but it seems the tumbler scans through all addresses ever generated (which would be consistent with being able to send to previous addresses in your account). Whenever it hits your address, your account will show as credited if the transaction has been confirmed. I've never seen my own credited before 3 transactions and never took longer than 8 (other than when I got caught in the deposit bug a couple weeks ago). Then that deposit is marked to tumble and will be withdrawn at some point, but your account is credited immediately. So no I don't think BTC activity affects it and yes if you're at 3 confirmations I would think they would arrive in the next few blocks... hopefully there still aren't deposit issues...
Again though all of that is just speculation based off only my own experiences.

interesting. yeah i dont fully understand how BTC works yet but I read something about certain transactions taking higher priority than others. I kind of assumed this meant larger transactions, and with the volatility today there might be a lot of those going on.
