How long does it take recieve Bitcoins?

[rik3]

I had a friend send me 100$ btc and it's been over an hour and it's still 0/3 confirmation. I normally get them instantly or 30 minutes tops. Is their an issue?

Mainly The Speed Of Transaction Depends Upon Two Factors:-
1) If the Sender Pay Low Fees than the Recommend Fee then Also the transaction Will be Slower....
3) Or if the Bitcoin Network is Not Strong then It Takes Time For Confirming Transaction......

Even more delay has happened with me couple of times in recieving even 1 confirmation for my bitcoin transaction.I think upto 12-16 hours i have waited once getting 1 confirmation but you doesnt need to worry about it,it only happens sometimes and should get confirmed at some time.

Few months ago happens that someone send transfer without fee and transaction was waiting 3 days in queue.. after three days come back to the wallet.

Standard fee is 10k satoshi. If someone want be sure that transaction will be realised faster is better to pay more than 10k satoshi fee..

Its  just a commonsense thing that we  should  pay even  more satoshi  in able to  transfer  a way more  faster  rather than  putting  up only a small amount. This  case  may really depend  on the  user,  if  hes  on the rush  on  transferring  the  bitcoin  then  he  should add  up transaction fee in able for bitcoin  transfers  would  be  fasten and if  hes not on the rush then any fee would  do. There are really times that  confirmations would  really be  long .

Bitcoin transactions are Mainly Confirmed Within 20-60 Minutes But If Your Transaction is Taking More time then There May Be the Following Reasons:-
1) If You Pay Low Feeds For the Transaction then it Needs More time to Confirm Your Transaction.......
2) Or If the Bitcoin Network is Weak Then Your Transaction Becomes Slower.......

Sometimes it takes long to receive your bitcoin and  I think by now you have received your coins. Even if it took 1 week the longest I experience always remember that it will arrive. It will always arrive and just trust blockchain. The speed of the transaction is dependent on the fees included to it and of course the current state of the blockchain and hashing power of miners.

Actually the bitcoin transactions can be faster if you don't mind to additional the transactions fees. But sometimes the confirmation of transactions is long time enough and we should wait it patiently.

At times it could be slow internet network which can delay the transaction also at times the blockchsin network could be too busy,a lot of traffic with s little you will get the money

It depends on the confirmations on the block chain! There are times that it will only takes around five minutes or less and there are also times that it will takes a few days before you can receive it on your bitcoin wallet.

That's right, it actually depend on fees you pay for a transaction but sometimes even if you pay the minimum required fees you transaction still does not take much time and sometimes even after paying more fees than normal makes it confirmed after a long time, so it happens in bitcoin network quite often these days because of the load maybe.

Its Not Possible to Predict that How Much a Transaction needs time to be confirmed, There May Be Two Reasons Behind this:-
1) If the Sender Pay Low Fees then the Transaction Needs More Time To Confirm Sometimes it takes 24-48 Hours to Confirmed.....
2) Or If the Bitcoin Network is Slow then its Not Possible that the Transaction Will Confirmed Faster.......
