Title: Mt.Gox BTC withdrawal delays
Post by: laichzeit0 on November 07, 2013, 09:34:37 AM
Creating a topic here for Newbies like me who registered specifically for this problem.

Been nearly 24 hours since my withdrawal and no BTC. Anyone else having huge delays getting their BTC out of Gox?  What should we do? I logged a support ticket but no response.

By the way does anyone know how long can it take to get verified on Mt.Gox

Took about 2 days for me to get verified.

I logged a support ticket but no avail yet.

There's a theory that the hot wallet can't honor all the BTC withdrawals and they have to get BTC from cold wallets. I don't believe this considering the traffic they're running.

My transaction doesn't even appear on blockchain.info so they probably haven't even done the tx yet? Getting SERIOUSLY annoyed.

Thanks. Almost 3 days waiting on bitstamp to get verified nothing has moved. For sure there is a too high cold storage rate those days. I confirm the "seriously annoying"

Link to main thread. Troll box on btce and people on HN experiencing the same issue. Gox needs to step up and admit there's a problem.

I just moved some coins out of Mt Gox a couple of weeks ago

Looks like I got lucky
