go to blockchain.info and then enter the BTC address you sent the coins to in the search bar. You will see tthe transaction details and how many confirmations it has

Need to wait for the bitcoin network to confirm that they have moved .
Some times takes an hour or two or three.
Sometimes more.
I had some take around 8 hours or more before.
You can pay a higher fee if you like and it might get higher priority in the network.

My coins usually show up in my SR account once it hits the 7th confirmation but lately (like this morning) it has been taking a little longer and my recent bitcoin deposit to my SR account didn't show up until the 9th confirmation. If after 24 hours you still have not received your bitcoins, send SR Support a message and they will be able to fix your problem.
