It's completed

The BTC are at Bitfinex

Time transaction for 7 approves  apx. 80 min.

Thanks for all the comments

Now I relax and wait for the fork

:-)

Lucky you! For others who might be contemplating sending some btc now, just don't do it. We have only 1hr 30minutes to go so why take the risk?

If you deposit money into Bitfinex it is unclear whether or not they will credit your account with bitcoin cash tokens immediately after the hard fork is activated. Even if they say that they will do so right now they may notfollow through with their promises. In my opinion, it's best to just wait it out after the all clear signal is given by trustworthy sources if you are reading this thread and considering to do the same.

Not really worth the risk considering that it's only like 2 hours or less to the hard fork, and if you send now it is infinitely more likely that less than the required amount of confirmation is on your transaction.

So yeah, don't risk it when you don't need to.

When you read the post correctly, you would understand that the BTC wallet is credited now, and all needed 7 confirms are made. Writing this 10 Confirmations are done on blockchain.

I disagree that Bitfinex would make any problems.

Why do you think they will ? Any proof?

if confirmation may take longer while not buy altcoin like eth, ltc, or doge and convert to btc. i did mine from yobit to cex.io. i have already gotten bcc in yobit but wanna get again in cex io since they are yet to fork btc and guarantee clients of getting bcc.

I have 4 approves till now -- bitfinex needs 7 I will post when it arrives.

My austrian supplier always pays correct fees, and they said they guarante me that nothing will get lost. (The call was at time of writing this article)

Thanks for all your comments

I think the aproves came very fast

I will tell u all when It has arrived on my wallet at Bitfinex -- hope soon

So you posted this update 15 minutes ago. Update us on what happened to your transaction. I don't want to make transactions for now, you just have to wait for 3 more confirmation and you've got it. That's not a lot at all, hope that everything goes well and there will be no interruption with the bitcoins that you are about to transact.

confirms are at 6/7 now

waiting to complete at bitfinex also 6/7 seeable till the first confirm



Too fast.

Oh an update from yours-

It's completed

The BTC are at Bitfinex

Time transaction for 7 approves  apx. 80 min.

Thanks for all the comments

Now I relax and wait for the fork

:-)

That was close and I'm happy for you that nothing happened to your bitcoins throughout the air while it was on the process. You can now have your time to relax mate. Next time don't do such crucial transactions, okay?  Wink

I want to make a BTC deposite to my bitfinex acount

Can I make it 3 hours before 12:20 UTC?

Bitfinex needs 7 confirms
I'd advice you to wait till after the fork so as to avoid some funny stories,who knows what might happen.

Is this transaction absolutely necessary? Try to hold off any transactions for now, especially with 25 minutes remaining. Just wait till the fork is over and the storm has died down, then you can start sending and receiving transactions again.
