Title: New to Amory, Deposited coins during qt sync
Post by: kennethashley on February 14, 2014, 09:05:38 AM
I withdrew some coins and tried to deposit them into amory while the bitcoin-qt is syncing. Will i still receive my coins once the sync is finished?

The coins have been received regardless of whether you are trying to get Armory synced or not. Coins are sent through the blockchain. Syncing Armory is essentially reading the blockchain, so it is only relevant in order to monitor your balance and to send coins from Armory.

Have you received the coins? I've done the same mistake.

It is not a mistake!  The receiving wallet is not involved in receiving the coins, that occurs on the block chain.  The following scenario is perfectly all right.

1) Create an armory wallet.
2) Back up your wallet on paper
3) Create a lot of receive addresses, and request a payment from an exchange.
4) Turn off your computer. 
5) Accidentally drop the computer from your seventh floor window.
6) The exchange transfers money to your receive address (so obviously it was not Gox :) ).
7) You go trekking in the Himalayas for six months.
8 ) Buy a new computer
9) Restore your armory wallet from backup in step 2.
10) Your money is there.  It is stored in the block chain not in the wallet, the wallet just has the codes to release the bitcoins again.
