Title: MtGox deposits - wtf is going on again?
Post by: coga on July 07, 2011, 07:58:03 PM
Can someone explain me wtf is that supposed to mean:

"Blockchain re-import in progress, bitcoin deposits are delayed. Full recovery by 22:00 GMT"

Is MtGox not accepting deposits right now? Have anyone successfully deposited any bitcoin within last hours?

I did a deposit, which now has 30 confirmations a few hours ago, it didn't go through yet. I assume it means it will go through some time after 22:00 GMT.

If you have to restart bitcoind and rescan or redownload the whole block chain, then this takes a few hours to run. Much like starting bitcoin for the first time. So bitcoind isn't aware of transactions until it is able to scan the block containing them. So your bitcoins are there and will show up as soon as the rescan or redownload completes.

Guess I should have read the red text before depositing my fund. I hope they're not lost

They should be fine, when it's done importing all the transactions will show up.
If they're not there in a few hours it's time to ask.
Don't worry now though.

Presumably everyone elses' bitcoin deposits became available at around the same time, so I'm guessing that's probably not a coincidence.

Yes, unfortunately if you want the most volume, it's where you've gotta go. I try and avoid it, but the difference between it and Tradehill's price was huge, so I thought I'd capitalize on it. Woulda gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling block reimports...
