I was doing some mining on Eligius and received a payment into my wallet. The payment appears to be unavailable and it has been over 6 hours already. When I look at Bitchain.info, I see a message that says "No Inputs (Newly Generated Coins)". Can someone please explain to me what this means? Thank you very much in advance.
No worries.
Coinbase transaction (the tx from block reward) will be spendable after 100 (120 for bitcoin-qt) confirmations.
FYI:
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Confirmation Coins generated aren't considered confirmed by the Bitcoin protocol for 100 blocks. It is advisable to wait some additional time for a better chance that the transaction will be propogated by all nodes. The classic bitcoin client won't show generated coins as confirmed until the 120th block.
