Title: Problems today with confirmations?
Post by: itarachiu on October 10, 2016, 10:02:24 PM
I sent my litecoins to bter.com to exchange them into btc, I withdraw them to my electrum wallet but I didn't got them.
On blockchain the transaction if I try to search by my btc withdraw address it exists but with 0 confirmation. Also it didnt show into my wallet(very strange). What can I do ?

Are you having trouble with confirmation or your electrum wallet?  From your post it sounds more like the latter.

Can you post the txid?  And is your electrum properly connected to the server (indicated by the green icon at the bottom right)?

Yes is properly connected to the network, also I tried the latest version of electrum too, same thing. It didnt show up into my electrum wallet I recevied the coins and like I said on blockchain the transaction exists, it say 0 confirmation since I made the withdraw(6-7 h ago).

This is my btc address where I withdraw.

Odd.  I can't see it in my electrum too (watching-only wallet).  It will surely appear once it gets confirmed though, the confirmation took long because of unconfirmed input.

Unfortunately bter is being stupid and is using 0.0001BTC fee for every transaction so the confirmation may take long.  Usually that's high enough but today there are more transactions than usual.

Edit:
Wow.  It got confirmed a minute before I posted.  :P

Your tx and 20~ unconfirmed tx (they were used as inputs) before it all was included in block #433806 which were mined by F2pool so you can probably thank them for that.

The fee is too low on that one.  That's 20 satoshi per byte which is far from the recommended 80 satoshi per byte.
Are you using the dynamic fee feature?  If not I think it's best to use it.

Just wait. Your transaction should be confirmed within a day.
Or if you really need it to be confirmed as fast as possible, see my post here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1631891.msg16415948#msg16415948).

Thanks for help. I was able to get my transaction in a block by sending a small fee 0.0001BTC to QuickSeller.
