Title: Bitcoin Transfer Between Wallets
Post by: Zman0101 on June 23, 2011, 03:26:30 AM
Hey everyone,

  I have my main computer with my original bitcoin wallet i started out with... To increase security i have a laptop just newly formatted and updated that i just want to use for storage of my coins...then disconnect it from the net. So its been over 20 mins and i haven't received my coins that i sent to my other pc. On the PC i have 63 connections cause i have port 8333 open but on the receiving wallet i only have 8 connections. Does this sometime take awhile to show up ? Normally anytime i receive anything from like BTC guild or gox its there in seconds? Whats going on?

The client only becomes aware of the most recent transactions with the whole blockchain

Yeah its still downloading... Hopefully it shows up... Does having more connections speed up the download speed of the block chain?
