Title: nervous freak lost his coins through blockchain?
Post by: nervousfreak on November 06, 2012, 04:05:11 AM
I was gonna send 26.13 coins to the address 1LLjPPzFEYmdFcswPBvUY6vjnGvNEEXQvc
I used blockchain.info and sent it using their anonymous option..

now, several hours later (more then 3 hours ago now) nothing has happened, have not received the coins. If you check out https://blockchain.info/address/1LLjPPzFEYmdFcswPBvUY6vjnGvNEEXQvc there are two transactions coming to that address, but they're both unconfirmed.. 
it seems to be for the right amount at least if you add them both together minus fees for the mixing.

When I check "my transactions" in blockchain.info , it does NOT list the address 1LLjPPzFEYmdFcswPBvUY6vjnGvNEEXQvc in to/from for the last transaction I made from the wallet, but another address.

Why is not blockexplorer showing any activity for this address I sent the bitcoins to? http://blockexplorer.com/address/1LLjPPzFEYmdFcswPBvUY6vjnGvNEEXQvc

Nervous freak is getting really nervous now, please advice and tell me everything is cool... I was quite sure I double checked the receiving address before sending and since blockchain.info shows that there are two transactions coming there it should be cool huh? Do i need to chill down and wait?

If you sent it using their anonymous option, why do you expect them to use the same coins you sent them?  Makes no sense.

I also heard that anonymous sends can take several hours, based on their mixing.  They're an honest bunch, you'll get your coins.  Check it again tomorrow.

This indicates that blockinfo just shows a future placeholder for the anticipated transaction.

Mixing takes time. Mixing works by spreading the amount throughout several addresses and then funnel them back into a target. The more spread out the activity is over time, the larger the de-correlation. I don't have experience with their service, but I would give it a day, maybe a week.

I think they queue up the transactions to space out the times sent and received. Probably nothing to worry about.

ok, looks like the transaction will reach its destination eventually then. But seriously, a week? Had I know that I had to sweat for a week I wouldn't not have done the mixing.. Have anyone had any experience with blockchain.info's mixing service? Does it really take up to a week?

If that's the case, I need to ask if there are any better services to mix your coins in?

Don't panic. It's going to be ok. But, your coins will be a little less anonymous since you made this post.

I recommend readind the FAQ part: https://blockchain.info/wallet/send-anonymously

I sent 90 BTC using their Send Anonymously service. More than 1 day ago. Have not received even a satoshi.
I made an appeal using their HelpDesk system. No reply.
I sent a PM to piuk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=17928). No reply.
Waiting...

So you would have?

When I want to send anon I just create a new easywallet account, then send it to the final destination. It is all mixed up for free.

Some transactions have been delayed through the mixer recently due to distribution caused by someone trying to double spend and generally being a nuisance. I put some transactions on hold that I thought were related to the double spending addresses. Apologies to any legitimate users that had transactions delayed.

Modifications have been made to ensure that input transactions that take a long time to confirm do not cause problems for other transactions.
