Title: Transferring bitcoins to SR
Post by: Hamlord on March 27, 2013, 03:19 am
Hi all. You'll have to excuse my naivety as I'm new to both Bitcoin and SR.

I have successfully managed to obtain about 0.5 bitcoin, over on Blockchain. Being on the safe side, I sent 0.01BC to the address on the first deposit page. That was about 10 minutes ago and it hasn't shown up in my SR account yet. I realize transactions can take up to 4 hours. Blockchain says the transaction is unconfirmed.

I was just wondering whether or not this is normal?

Thanks.

Yep its all normal. Normally takes about 6 -12 hours for the coins to show up, over the last day theres been a delay with the coins showing up, alot of people have posted threads about it, i think its taken up to a day for some to arrive in the wallet - if your coins haven't shown up in 6-12 hours contact support, they will check for you and make sure your coins get to you but its just taking a little longer atm.
