Title: Why does blockchain's ShareCoin take so long??
Post by: bigheadedmouse on February 27, 2014, 02:01:54 PM
Hi, please bear with my newbieness, I am a first time user of ShareCoin.  I attempted to send to another address about 8 hours ago (I selected 6 repetitions), so far I have about 81 confirmations.  How many more confirmations and how much longer does it take for the bitcoins to arrive at the destination address?  I've never had used a btc mixer service before and had never known that the process would take hours!!  What is a normal amount of time for someone in my situation to wait?

I keep seeing threads about people having 0 confirmations after hours, but saw no thread about concerns regarding numerous confirmations after hours but yet to arrive to destination address.  May i'm just freaking out, but I would greatly appreciate any enlightenment due to my inexperience with btc mixer.

Thank you very much.

****the status shows it as being delivered as of 4am on 2/27, but I have not received it on the destination address?  What can I do at this point??

hi, thank you very much for your response :)  Fortunately, the transaction that I posted had successfully been delivered.

Unfortunately, I tried to make another transaction, and this one had taken more than 2 days to send...(although it has 400+ confirmations as of this moment!!

What do you recommend that I do?  The wallet client is not bitcoin BT.
