Title: Average transaction time? Post by: ksd5 on July 13, 2010, 02:53:59 AM What is the average transaction time? I sent my friend one Bitcoin a few hours ago, and at the time of this posting, he still hasn't received it.

Title: Re: Average transaction time? Post by: ksd5 on July 13, 2010, 03:03:28 AM For some reason, he's not downloading blocks. He's getting around 1400-1600 khash/s, and has generated 50 coins already (they're still maturing in 100 or so blocks), but he tells me that he has only 3 blocks.

Unfortunately this means he has not generated a block that anyone else will accept. So he probably won't be getting his 50 coins. Sorry :( Make sure you download all the blocks before you start generating coins. |
