Title: Sent BTCs not receiving?
Post by: bitcoinpaul on June 11, 2011, 09:31:39 PM
Hello Board-Members,

so I just sent me my BTCs from bitmarket.eu to my wallet receiving address. Unfortunately, they are not showing up on the wallet on my computer (transfer was 10 hours ago). bitmarket.eu says "confirmed". Am I doing something wrong? I had different versions of the same wallet.dat and am now using the oldest one. (well, i think it was always the same because I only had/have one receiving address). Currently, I have 117 connections and 20500 blocks running in my btc software on my mac, but balance is 0.0, transactions is 0.

Any ideas, whats wrong?

Best regards,
Paul

you need ~130130 blocks before your client start working :) you will get your btc, your client just have not seen them yet :)

just wait, they will show :D

Indeed. Patience is a virtue here.

It took me all of yesterday and until 5PM today to see a mere 2 BTC reflect on my MtGox account sent from my wallet... And an entire day on a different occasion to see money from MtGox sent to my Liberty Reserve account.
