Title: How Long
Post by: Howaboutnow? on April 01, 2013, 11:13 pm
Hey I got some bitcoins from Bitcopia about 3 hours ago and they still aren't in my SR acct.

How long does it take and how do I track to see if they were sent?

Please help and thanks

It can take up to 6 hours, sometimes longer on bad days. You can track them on blockchain.

Sorry to be stupid but how do you do that?  Do you put your address in the search?

Go to blockchain.info the copy the address you sent the bitcoins to into the search bar to track them. BCs generally need to be confirmed 6x before transactions are processed.

Took me about 2 hours from Bitfloor transfer. Fairly quick. Waiting on first 2 orders from reputable vendors Googleyed and brownpurple31. I hope they come through and dont ask me to FE like all the newb guides suggest!
