Deposited straight to my SR wallet. What's the typical wait time? Also what do people mean when they say they waited till the "x" amount of confirmation. thanks.

Wait time varies from transaction to transaction i guess ..  for the most part..for me....my transactions..from BI to SR addy....takes around an hour or so...i have had to wait for around 5 or 6 hours a couple times though  ..

the 6 verifications..means that once you see it at 6 verifications your coins should then be on the way to yur SR account...now from there they will get tumbled ..so there will be another wait...20...30..minutes....sometimes longer....sometimes sooner...

:)

Hope this heped ya  :P

Is it okay to transfer straight from BitInstant to SR now? I didn't think it was possible, and is it possible to remain anonymous still? I've always used the Mt. Gox method by using a Money Gram or something, but that is out of the question now...Any answers are appreciated.
