I bought some BTC from a distant friend and asked him to send it to my binance exchange as i do not have any dedicated bitcoin wallet. However, when i search the HASH, the transfer shows confirmed but the 'Total Received', 'Total Sent', 'Final Balance' is zero! What does this mean? and it also does not show up in my binance account.

What should I do? Is this transaction successful and i should wait longer or am I being scammed by this distant friend?

Hi,
If not secret, can you share the hash of the transaction so that we can have a look at it?
Final Balance if you didn't move your coins should be the total received.
You are saying you don't have a wallet - every exchanger offers you an online wallet where you can receive and send funds from. So I guess you gave a such address to your friend to send the coins into it?

Can you please post the transaction ID as that will indicate what went wrong with the BTC transfer.
Your account obviously wont have any  bitcoins in it since the final balance is zero. The total sent and total received although shouldn't be zero in this case. Either your friend has sent the btc to a wrong address or the coins have moved to some other wallet. Check the transaction and find out the route where the coins have been stored.

This is cause it isn't confirmed yet, it will take some time for this to happen because the bitcoin network is very congested and the fees are pretty high right now. This is going to take some time to confirm, if you want to check out an estimate time for it to confirm you can check it out here - https://www.blockonomics.co/api/tx?txid=6176ae58ea8c36828d93c19afdaab0e8f034637e089b6853061f662cf2a06a7b

Goodluck! Try to use an accelerator though, it could work maybe something such as VIABTC.

In Philippines use paypal to credit and then withdraw to any bank or atm.
