I wouldn't worry too much.

You can check the transaction here:
http://cryptocoinexplorer.com:3750/

Put the receiving address in there and see if your deposit is awaiting confirmation.

If you go to your finances page on BTC-E and hit "make deposit" next to TRC it'll show you all of the coins pending deposit and # of confirmations. If you don't see anything there, check the explorer url someone listed earlier.

On the off chance you are using an outdated client and are on a forked (invalid) block chain yourself, you don't actually have legitimate coins and any you try to send to BTC-E will never arrive. (BTC-E had the opposite problem the other day when they were on the invalid chain themselves, and so selling coins that didn't exist for BTC.)

Don't tell him to check blockchain.info, then he will really get pissed.

Use the link I mentioned, if you use blockchain.info you will never see the transaction.

They only do BTC as I understand it. This was a TRC transaction. :) So http://cryptocoinexplorer.com:3750/.

If it's not on the block chain it has nothing to do with BTC-E. They can only go by what the blockchain says. Are you running the latest version of the TRC client? If you are before version .36 you might be on the wrong chain. :(

qt version 4.8.3

Err. 0.1.3-38 is most recent "mandatory" version, I believe.

Windows version if that's what you run:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/terracoin/files/latest/download

Up to .40 is available at

http://sourceforge.net/projects/terracoin/files/SatoshiClone/

but changelog doesn't seem like anything important.

Did you try and clear your browser cache recently ?? I had some problems with BTCs not being listed in the finances window because of that, it just didn't refresh...same with the charts on the page.

Post by: Ghepetto on April 23, 2013, 09:57:28 PM
Chain was forked, caught me off guard because I had just updated twice recently.



I hereby retract all negative comments about btc-e, thanks for the help all!

Glad you sorted that out, but sorry to hear you lost those coins. TRC had some serious problems that week. Hopefully behind them for good, now.
