Title: Deposits and withdrawals paused
Post by: Dread Pirate Roberts on July 16, 2013, 05:41 pm
We are seeing an error in the deposit and withdrawal system.  I've paused all bitcoin related functions until we can figure out the problem.  Hopefully we'll have it running again in an hour or two.

+1 for update. I'm at 58 confirmations now, and patiently waiting, but have complete confidence in you DPR.

Does that include finalizing? I've had over $1000 finalize and can't access those coins. If you could please stop finalizing so that I'm not stuck with coins at a certain price, I'd really appreciate it.

no, buyers can still finalize.  hopefully there won't be any major exchange rate fluctuations before we can get rolling again.

I was disappointed when I woke up today and my coins hadn't yet been deposited. Seeing 38 confirmations on Blockchain really had me baffled. Now I see why. Here's hoping it won't take much longer.

Thanks for the heads up DPR. It has been 5 hours since my deposit hit 6 Confirmations. Its sitting at 44 right now. Why does this have to happen on my payday :(

Much Love

Beginning to wonder too - sent over the most coins i've ever sent RIGHT before this happened haha. D'oh!  :-\

I'm sure DPR and whoever are working on it, but it would be good to get an update... If theres a drop in coin value before this is fixed i'll be pretty miffed.

Seems like we're OK to go with deposits then?  Anyone else having luck? 
Title: Re: Deposits and withdrawals paused
Post by: SmokesHisBroccoli on July 17, 2013, 09:25 pm
Guys I'd maybe give it some more time to make a deposit.  Can't speak for withdrawals, but I made a deposit a few hours ago and 22 confirmations later I'm still not seeing it.  Things are probably still backed up and they're still working on it.  Not sure how the last few people got their deposit through.  Did you refresh and get a new bitcoin address before making the deposit?  This is something I always do.

I let DPR know several hours ago that this was still happening, so I'm sure he is aware of it and working on it.  Keep hanging in there - it will all get sorted!  I'm sorry for the delays though.

Generally, when there are delays in withdrawals and deposits, it doesn't affect internal transfers.

Yes I sure did read the thread - from yesterday. Yesterday we got an error message when trying to withdraw that said "bitcoin error". Then withdrawals and deposits were stopped.

The withdrawal issue was fixed yesterday- I got both an email from vendor support and my withdrawals last night and early morning went thru just fine. None have gone thru today.

That's correct because, as DPR mentioned in the initial post of this thread:

The implication there is that things are still paused because they haven't yet figured out what the error is, or are experiencing a new one.  Either way, they're clearly aware of the problem and working on it.  There's not much else anyone can do at this point.
Title: Re: Deposits and withdrawals paused
Post by: Trappy on July 17, 2013, 11:40 pm
DPR, please keep us updated. I'm advising my boss's buyers to NOT deposit bitcoin into their accounts, and to also avoid withdrawing bitcoin from their accounts. The sooner this is solved, the sooner business can return to normal.

Potential buyers that already have bitcoin on their accounts are unaffected. Buyers that have yet to finalize on their purchase are also unaffected.

Shes saying she assumed that was an old post because after DPR posted that message withdrawals started working agian.

Calm down.
Thats exactly what I'm saying - and because Vendor Support returned my message last night saying this was resolved. And it was working for some point last night and this am but not now.

Expect you verbally degraded her for asking that question.

It wasn't my intention to "verbally degrade" her, and I apologize to fivestargirl if she felt "verbally degraded" but I had just posted that the issue was still occurring before she posted as though people were ignoring her.

The bottom line is that staff is working on getting it fixed, and we are all in the same boat here.

Actually @ScammerHoundDog is correct- you were pretty rude. Most people on here are talking about deposits. As a vendor, and a good one at that, not getting withdrawals means I can't cash out and can't offer product on here. Meaning all of my buyers will either go elsewhere or get sick.

I was informed by Vendor Support this was fixed so I was re-informing them that its not actually fixed.

I have heard back from Vendor Support again and those who care about withdrawals- if you don't have your coins in 12 hours- contact them.

   Seriously, can you believe this wanker? You are a crack smoking lunatic. You cannot create all these demented, abusive, schizoid affective threads, filled with images of dog shit you have collected with your own hands in some bizarre attempt to damage a vendor's rep, to then come here and play at being mister calm, rational gentleman, defender of ladies and the little people...

I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question but I haven't run into this before where deposits were paused. I did try to search for an answer but couldn't find the right search terms to locate an answer if it's elsewhere on the forums...What happens if you send money to your SR BC addy and transactions are paused like this? Will it go back to the sending wallet? Hang in limbo until the pause is lifted and then appear? Thanks for any info.

*** UPDATE: My funds arrived. I'd still love to know for future reference though if someone knows the answer and thanks! ***
