Title: URGENT! Bitcoin withdraws from Silk Road are not working!
Post by: Jack N Hoff on July 17, 2013, 05:44 pm
It has been over an hour and transactions are not even showing up in queue for confirmation on the blockchain.  Are we having withdraw problems again?  Obviously we must.  Where are my bitcoins and when will this get fixed?  You guys are running a multimillion dollar operation here.  Tighten up!

I transfered an hour ago and it's still not even showing up in my confirmation que.. nothing. I had a bit of a scare earlier.. but It def has something to do with the deposit/withdrawal issues from last night.. at least I hope.

looks like we had an unusual spike in withdrawals that kicked in an emergency shutoff.  Everything looks ok, though, so we should be flowing again shortly.

Thank you for letting us know Robbie.

I think they are still backed up. Withdrawal from more than an hour ago still not showing up in blockchain.

I made withdraw several hours ago that went through without a hitch but I've been waiting hours on another one to even show up in the blockchain.

I think you're right.  I did a deposit 45 minutes ago and 9 confirmations later I'm waiting.  Just a matter of time I'm sure.

I hate having problems with withdraw because of SR.

Thanks for letting me know, Jack.  I'll pass that info along to DPR so he knows there are still some problems.

Same here. Did a withdrawal about 3 hours ago that's not showing up in the blockchain. Just sent a message to support about it.

Why is there a emergency shut up and who has access to the button? Is it possible you spilled champagne on your leather jacket when your yacht hit a wave and accidentally hit the button in the process of yelling at your servants to clean up the mess?

Worthless comment is worthless. Go figure. :-/

Are people having the same problems with deposits as well? I sure am.

Deposits and withdrawals were put on pause earlier, and you can find DPR's thread on the issue here:

Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon!

I was asking why there was a emergency shut off. Sorry my comment was deemed "worthless." Wonder how worthless a comment on a worthless comment is worth.

Did I just hurt your brain? Sorry.

Sure you were. Except you just had to add a snide and snarky jab at DPR.

Good news though. Pointing out that a worthless post is worthless has enormous value. It lets other posters know to skip past reading any posts of the poster whose post was worthless as that poster may have a pattern of making worthless posts.

;)

LOL, Ben.

So we're probably looking at a 12 - 24 hour delay for withdrawals to process. Hopefully BTC value doesn't decrease much during that time.

Vendor support has said to expect withdraws within 12 hours.

Best,

I'm sure dpr threw his hands up in rage and destroyed another mac book pro as he screamed "GET ME ANOTHER."

It was sarcasm man. I don't think hes that rich and I believe the fees they charge are small compared to the services they offer. I highly doubt my comment even bothered him.

You on the other hand seem to be kissing ass so hard you can't even breath. DPR quit giving out bitcoins months ago brother.

Anyone who's seen your posts that antagonize or point out faults with the staff wouldn't take your latest comment as sarcasm or as adding much value to the community at large. Just saying.


Anyway, back on topic...


Starting to see confirms on withdrawals that occurred about 8 to 10 hours ago. So it seems they are catching up again.

This kind of thing happens every couple of months and is solved within 12 to 72 hours. Avg 24 hours.

It really sucks that all of the vendors that needed to withdraw got screwed because of this.  The value of bitcoins decreased by $13.72 USD per bitcoin in the time it took to get this fixed. :(
