Title: Not Receiving Coins?
Post by: Extravagant on May 10, 2012, 08:11:41 PM
Hello,

I sent some coins from one address to another about 2 hours ago, They still have not reached there destination, I used block explorer to lookup whats going on.

Under the transaction details it list's this:

Not yet redeemed    30.9    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx   Address
   
OP_DUP OP_HASH160 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG

The xxx's are address and hash, i didnt know if i should post them for security,

Why are my coins stuck?

thank you!

No fee probably.
How old were those coins on your wallet before you sent them?

Not yet redeemed doesn't mean it hasn't been hashed into a block yet.

How many confirmations does blockchain.info show for the tx (you can search by the tx id, or any of the addresses).

If the tx hasn't been confirmed then likely it is a fee issue.  
If it HAS been confirmed and you destination still doesn't see it the coins have been sent, the issue is just with the destination's client.

So the first troubleshooting step is has it been confirmed?

Well, there isn't any unconfirmed transaction on the value of 30.9 BTC, so it must be confirmed already :)

Also, lookup the transaction or the address where you sent the coins to at http://blockchain.info

Not to offend theymos, but blockexplorer truly sucks major balls lol

If you have any problem with it being associated with your forum account don't post it, otherwise...

Well,

They finally hit the receiving address, 3 hours and 15 minutes after doing the transfer off MTGox. 0.o

No idea why they took so long. Block explorer still shows it as:

0    Not yet redeemed    30.9 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx   Address    
OP_DUP OP_HASH160 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG
