Hey, so I sent some coins from Gox to Coinlab about 2 hours ago and they still haven't appeared.  I've done this before and it worked fine, but was only about 1 hour.

Is this something I should worry about or is it normal to take longer?  

Thanks in advance.

So - last time it took about two hours, and this time you've waited about two hours, and want to know if something's wrong?  Grin

Snarkiness aside, a ~2h wait suggests they probably wait for 6 confirmations in the Bitcoin network (for some reason, Coinlab didn't whitelist Gox transfers??), which takes a variable amount of time (we're "supposed" to get a new block every ~20m, so 6x20m=2h - but there's a good deal of variability). Let us know if you get to the 6-hour mark.

Thanks, I'll post again if they're not there in 6.

And that was actually a typo, I meant to say that last time it was about 1 Tongue
