Title: |Date not verified| ???
Post by: nrm4bits on December 28, 2016, 04:43:29 AM
Hi folks!. Yesterday i made my first signed message  and today i made, well somebody sent me a few mBTC.
I received it ok and it has so far 31 confirmation. So my question is and maybe a stupid one but: why my electrum wallet, in the Tab 'History':

Date:          Not verified            <------------ this
Description: (doesn't matter)
Amount:      (doesn't matter)
Balance:      (doesn't matter)

what does it means?

because you are not synced with the network, or in other words you have not yet downloaded all the blockchain headers.

at the bottom right corner of Electrum, click on that circle (it may be red, green, blue and i think yellow) to open up network window. on top it should say: "blockchain: 445447"
if not let it sync, or change the server to another one. try "ecdsa.net" from the list.

p.s. it is not date column in that table, if you look closely it is a new separate column without a header!

that is not referring to the date. it is referring to the number of confirmations the transaction has got. electrum doesn't think it has had enough confirmations yet so it is showing that not verified status. you shouldn't worry about it. it'll automatically fix itself over time.

for all intents and purposes that transaction has confirmed. I would consider it a done deal.
