Hey moderators give me a break PLEASE, this five minutes between posting makes me very frustrated!
it is your low rank that is preventing you from posting any faster. besides you can answer everything in one comment instead of multiple
Because I have always been warned NOT to send a lot of money at once and to always send smaller amounts in cases of an issue like now
so instead of sending 8 coins I sent 2 2 2 2.
well that makes sense,... somewhat.
but it usually is the first time to check to see if things are ok, for example when you first check the platform not always.
But I thought it was a fee ( percentage ) that was based upon the amount and not a transaction fee so it would be the same?
Guess not
Coinbase is a little weird and it is not exactly a bitcoin wallet, it is more like bitcoin account so they set the fees. but i still believe that they take a fixed amount regardless of how much you are sending.
and for a bitcoin transaction (you know in case you used a real bitcoin wallet) the fee is always based on the size in bytes not the amount.
What information do I need off of blockcipher to post here?
you don't need to post it here if you like to keep your privacy. just check your Coinbase account, they must have given you some "transaction IDs" which is a hexadecimal string like this:
d68ec88ea29e4a9fd789212bedfd0848acb704dfa1beb4c76a7cff6f23e75368
use those in a blockexplorer (blockchain.info or blockcypher or ...) to see if they are confirmed and how many confirmation they have.
