I made a new address on my account for making a bitcoin deposit, deposited the coins a few hours ago, and confirmed in blockexplorer that it was received (16 blocks ago in fact). 8 blocks ago, I see the bitcoins leaving that for another address, I assume part of the internal SR tumbling.
But they have yet to show up as available on my account. Anybody else having this problem?
-
Yup, I tried to add funds about 4 hours ago, nothing has shown up yet. 33 confirmations, whatever those are anyway :p
-
Same here
-
Thats funny, I have had a few customers finalize their orders in the last couple of days and my account balance has just gone down. I'm owed about $500 despite my customers doing everything right. When they finalize from escrow the funds are just never sent to me. Now there are funds even missing from my account. This morning when I checked my account balance had gone down by 1.3 BTC which shouldn't even be possible because I'm waiting on a PIN reset right now. I don't know whats going on but it seems like SR is having some serious problems processing payments. The worst part is that Vendor Support hasn't even read my messages yet. So there is no indication that this issue is going to be resolved or that I will ever get my money back.

Yeah I'm having problems as well. Made a deposit about 3 hours ago that indeed shows it has been sent and received. This really sucks :/
This needs to be fixed asap as this could induce big big problems.
-
Cool, I'm glad it's not just me. I'm sure DPR will get it ironed out soon, they've always put top priority on issues like this in the past.
-
I hope so. In the mean time I'm 6 days behind on rent and counting. Sure wish I could at least get a fucking response from Vendor Support.

Hi folks,
The deposit process can take up to 24 hours but normally takes a lot less.
If you're checking the deposit on a site such as blockchain.info then what you're seeing is Silk Road's tumbler in action. There is nothing to worry about, and you will receive your coins.

I am not seeing my deposit and it has already 20 something confirmations. It has never taken this long before and lately it is just crazy. I love that when I finally feel the site is stable again I decide to dump a few thousand onto SR to make a purchase and guess what it does not show up... I just want my money back, thats it... Is mgmt aware of this and doing something to fix it? I know someone said it takes 24 hours, but it has never taken more than 3 since the day I started using SR. And the login screens look fishy, sometimes with only 3 numbers in the captcha image....

24 hours?
You must be new around here, moderator. That's not how it works; I've been a member since the days when the forums were part of the main site, and within minutes of the 6th confirmation, the funds show up in your account on the road. Always. Unless there is a problem.
Trust me when I say that there is a problem, and if you have a way of notifying DPR, it would be in your best interest to do so.
-
Deposits should show after 6 confirmations.
I wouldn't encourage you to mislead us, as we know how this should work.
I am also waiting for my coin.
I agree there is a problem.

Libertas is ABSOLUTELY CORRECT in what he has said. It CAN take up to 24 hours - especially when the site is running slowly or under attack.
Yes, usually when things are working properly, you should see the coins after the 6th confirmation. However, the site has been under attack and things are / have been running slightly slowly.
Also, Libertas is not new around here, and there's no reason to be so condescending toward him - everything he said is accurate. The admins (including DPR) have themselves reiterated the possible delays.

Hi subsrgood,
As stated, it can take up to 24 hours for deposits to reach your Silk Road account. I understand you being worried because it has never taken more than 3 hours for you before, but I have transferred almost $20,000 to my buyer account over my time on Silk Road and it has taken anywhere from 20 minutes to 20 hours for the Bitcoin to be received.
20 confirmations is roughly 3 hours and 12 minutes (with a new block currently being mined roughly every 9.6 minutes) so until it reaches 150 confirmations (24 hours) there is no cause for concern.
As I mentioned in my previous post, if you do not receive your Bitcoin within 24 hours of having sent them then you can contact SR Support on the main site using the link in the bottom right hand corner of any page.
Regarding the 3 digit captcha, it is fine and normal; you can read more on that here:

Misleading you? Libertas is here trying to help, and has not said anything about this matter that isn't true. If you've been here for a long time, then you should know better than most that both deposits and withdrawals can, at times, take longer than they should. Yes, it should show up after 6 confirmations, but over the past several months, things have been much slower. I myself have experienced withdrawals that took 24 hours to show up, and deposits that took 6+ hours to show up.
It happens. It has BEEN happening. There are countless threads on the matter.
The advice is: if the deposit or withdrawal has not shown up in 12-24 hours and shows on blockchain, then you will need to get in touch with SR Support so they can push it through manually for you. That comes directly from the admin, so if you'd like to condescend to them and tell them they don't know what they're talking about, be my guest. You can contact them by messaging inigo or DPR.
Otherwise, look around the forums over the past several months for threads about delayed deposits and withdrawals.
-
The site is not currently slow or under attack. In fact, the site is working better now than it has in months.
I understand you guys must spout the party line, but mark my words, there will turn out to be a problem that DPR has to push through manually to fix. Been down this road before.
I'm simply trying to strongly suggest that you guys nudge him and let him know the natives are getting restless, because regardless of what you think of my condescension, I actually do know what I'm talking about.
-
Made a 1400 dollar deposit a few hours ago. No sign of coins yet although they have been good about such things in the past. Longest it EVER took for me is 8 hours, and I've been here a year. I ain't gonna panic unless it takes more than 20-24 hours. After a week-long outage, this type of stuff don't bother me none.

Yes, we all know that the deposits SHOULD show up after 6 confirmations. We're simply stating that sometimes there are delays, and that when there is a delay like this, DPR has asked that people wait for 24 hours and if they still haven't shown up, then at that point people should contact SR Support. He knows there are delays. This has been an issue for several months now.
And no, the site is not "working better now than it has in months" --- we're all being logged out randomly from the main site and we are NOT out of the woods from the attack yet.
This all comes directly from DPR, so I'm not sure why you're arguing with me.
-
I'm not arguing with you, I'm just pointing out that there _is_ an issue with the road's interface to the block chain, and that this isn't a simple thing that will correct itself on its own if we wait long enough. Vendors seeing money leave their account when it shouldn't, consumers not seeing deposits (I'm at almost 60 confirmations now, BTW)...it's simply not an issue with delay, something is broken.
If you're trying to say, "Yes, something is probably broken, but don't freak out, DPR will log in sometime in the next 10-12 hours and fix it, please don't submit support tickets until you've waited 24 hours", that has some validity and isn't something I would disagree with. But that's what you should say, not "don't worry things are just slow."

No, that's not what I'm saying. There have been many instances in which things were delayed for whatever reason and people ended up receiving their bitcoins hours later without having DPR having to "fix" anything. I'm saying no one needs to freak out - either the coins will show up, or you can send a message to SR Support on the main site who will eventually push it through manually. This has happened before and will happen again - it has been a common theme over the last few months.

The site is being worked on; neither you nor I have any idea of what is going on behind the scenes, therefore it is naive to suggest that the site is working better now than it has in months, and as a result, there may be some issues which might cause deposits to be slower than usual.
If there is a problem with deposits then DPR will be alerted to that fact. As it currently stands, there are no problems with deposits, they are simply taking a little longer than they normally do - which is not unprecedented.

But that's what you should say, not "don't worry things are just slow."
The vendor that saw money leaving their account when it shouldn't has been in contact with me and we have determined that it was most likely the vendor's confusion about how auto-withdraw works. The other vendor that claims his money disappeared was likely the victim of a phishing attempt, or has another angle here.
You say that the site is working better now than it has in months, then contradict that assertion by stating that there are problems and "something is broken".
It is becoming apparent that your stating "I actually do know what I'm talking about" was perhaps a little premature.

By the "site working better than it has in months", clearly I'm referring to the effort required to get the site to load, and how quickly the pages respond.
I'm not referring to the back-end interfaces that the road relies on to function. The "site" is clearly the front-end HTTP platform. Which is what was under attack. And which is now working fine. So to try to allege that the problems with the block chain may be "because the site is under attack still" is, bottom line, misinformed at best, straight up retarded nonsense at worse.
You can try to argue with me, but it's pretty unbecoming for a "moderator" to engage in an argument over semantics.

I'm not arguing with you, friendlyoutlaw, I'm stating the facts of the matter. If you have been a member here for any significant amount of time you will know that the time period for Bitcoin being credited to user accounts varies.
"Misinformed" or "retarded nonsense", you are entitled to your prerogative on the matter. Please do consider the fact that Silk Road runs deposits through a tumbler before asserting your opinion that there is an issue with the Road's interface to the blockchain. A significant chunk of the people posting about delays and possible issues stems from them checking their deposits on blockchain.info and thinking - from what they can see there - that their Bitcoin is arriving at their account then being withdrawn. They fail to take the SR tumbler into account when they see this occurring and start to worry.
I'm finished conversing with you on the matter; I've explained the situation and the steps that need to be taken to remedy it if the funds do not arrive within 24 hours of sending them.
If a significant number of people are still having issues after that 24 hour period, I will report it up the chain.
That should satisfy you whilst also giving the system time to do what it does.

I am having similar problem. Something definitely is going on with the site.
-
I'm up to about 16hours now. Hopefully I get this money in. The next few hours!
-
How do I track where my bitcoins are?
-
I'm going to deposit into my acct tommorow, I think its working now, I think, anybody know if its safe now to transfer money.
-
S13 why do you say you think its working now?? Just curious if you read something recently that I haven't yet. Thanks.
-
How do I track where my bitcoins are?
I think the whole idea of the SR tumbling routine is so that the coins cannot be tracked. So, you can't.
-
Also I am awaiting coins from another vendor whom I purchased them from on the sr site. Will it take up to 24 hours from when that vendor transfers me my coins from there wallet to mine, or should that not take as much time?
-
Just wanted to add in and state my concern, I already posted a thread in tech support that Libertas had responded to and reading through this thread has given me a bit more information. It's concerning that so many people are having issues and if it comes to them having to be pushed through manually I hope its something the SR staff can handle. In the mean time, I have faith that the coins will come through and dont have a reason to doubt the SR admins and staff in this matter.

Internal SR transfers (user to user) are instant.

Its so frustrating not to be able to see my coins. It has never taken this long before.
-
There is some serious sexual tension on this thread. Slightly arousing to read.
I am in the same boat.. waiting patiently :P
I was just thinking that as the site was down for so long, and now working better (be it a bit wobbley)
there must be a hell of a lot of people putting in funds and general activity going into SR.
Would this not factor into timescale for fund transfers?
(Thankyou Libertas & Scout for the info)

Thanks for the information... I just hope the bitcoin does not crash over night and then my couple thousand turns into a few hundred dollars. That's the only thing I worry about in regards to this delay, we can all lose a decent amount of money. Anyways, if I dont have the coins tomorrow morning I will let you know. Maybe in the future some kind of warning can be posted so we dont try and complete any transactions when things are this delayed. thanks

I'm at 77 confirmations (11 hours). Bitcoin has lost £10/coin in that time :(

This is baffling to me because this is being posted in the main forums, where I would think most people who were able to post had been around for the past several weeks if not several months ... so why are people reacting as though this has never happened before? Delays with withdrawals and deposits are COMMON on SR. Especially these last few months. It happens all the time and people post thread after thread about it.
Why is it that this time, people don't seem to realize this has been happening periodically for the past few months?
It's not concerning and it's not something SR can't handle. This has happened before and it's disconcerting when you're waiting for the deposit, yes, but every time this has happened, everyone has received their coins - even if it has taken longer than usual, or longer than it should. EVERYONE ALWAYS RECEIVES THEIR COINS. So, please, be patient and if you haven't received your coins WITHIN 24 hours, send a message to SR Support on the main site.
There are many times when SR Support DOES have to push the transactions manually.
Remember, this is not just a simple transaction from one wallet to another - there is a coin tumbler involved here as well.
-
Yup; 35 confirmations, not seeing any funds. :-(

This is a genuine concern, and one I didn't first think of when this issue arose. The price of BTC has dropped by $10 since I purchased and transferred. Let's hope it stays stable for the next day or so :-\
-

No one complains about the delays when the price is rising. You're not losing money - you are still receiving the same amount of BTC that you sent - SR is obviously not responsible for the exchange rate volatility, nor is there any way to predict it. Also, SR uses Mt Gox 24 hour average - which means it is slightly less volatile than if it were using the last rate.
Nonetheless, there's nothing we can do on our end to speed it up. DPR is aware of the delays, and I'm sure he'll get it fixed. In the meantime, try to be patient and know that everyone ALWAYS receives their bitcoins, even if it means support having to push the transactions through manually.
As for the suggestion that we give a warning - none of us know that there is going to be a delay. We only know when people start reporting it, so there is no way to issue a preemptive warning.
However, again, delays going in and out of SR wallets is a common issue even when the site is NOT under attack, so please keep that in mind in the future when you're transferring coins in and out. Always leave enough time for any possible delays that might arise.
-
As I said, I have the utmost faith in SR and staff, DPR, and the admins. I had posted in the tech support thread before reviewing through here and reading you and Libertas state that this is a more common issue and has happened plenty of times during the lifetime of SR. So I am no longer that concerned and understand your explanation, and appreciate the reassurance. I assume that yes, people are just concerned with the coins being in virtual limbo, and me being a relative "noob" myself I can understand but again, grasp completely what you say is going on. Also, I know that SR is in no way responsible for the exchange rate, nor am I complaining just had a concern mentioned I didnt really think of. I will wait patiently for the coins to arrive and utilize SR to the fullest when possible 8). LONG LIVE THE ROAD!

The same is happning for me, Transferred BTC 4 hours ago, 20+ confirmations, still not showing.
I can only hope for the best, and hope for a 24hr spike

Can anyone confirm receiving a transfer recently?

I understand the panic and fear involved whenever you are moving coins around - particularly when there are unforeseen delays on either end. That concern is totally normal and to be expected, for sure! My point though in all of this is that DPR is aware of the issue, these delays have been periodically occurring the last several month with the strains on the servers from all of the new traffic/members, sometimes the delays resolve on their own, sometimes DPR and staff have to push them through manually, and EVERYONE WILL RECEIVE THEIR COINS! That's the nice thing about the bitcoin system - coins/transactions are never really "lost" and blockchain provides proof of every transaction.
So, because of that, everyone should try to hang in there and understand that their coins WILL make it to their wallets, even if it takes longer than usual, or longer than it should!
We're all in the same boat here. If DPR himself were to make a deposit, he, too, would be suffering the same delays.

Understood. A small worry and price to pay, for what SR provides and represents. Would +1 if I could. Thanks for keeping us in the know scout!

Hi folks,
The deposit process can take up to 24 hours but normally takes a lot less.
If you're checking the deposit on a site such as blockchain.info then what you're seeing is Silk Road's tumbler in action. There is nothing to worry about, and you will receive your coins.
If you do not receive your Bitcoin within 24 hours of having sent them, you can contact SR Support on the main site using the link in the bottom right hand corner of any page.

I am unable to withdraw bitcoins. It keeps saying "bitcoin address invalid."
I logged out and logged back in and tried again. Still won't work. Tried another bitcoin address. Still won't work.

Server loads? The block chain is the block chain. The records are there in 1s and 0s. It's either being parsed or it's not. Clearly the network is working, or we wouldn't be able to load the site. If the network is working, the server should have a current copy of the block chain. If the pages are loading, the server should have enough computing capacity to parse the block chain.
Clearly I don't know exactly how SR gets desynched from the block chain. But until somebody provides a technical explanation of how these deposit delays can be caused by things out of the control of SR, and resolved on their own, I'm calling bullshit. I'm pretty sure every time (at least, that I'm personally aware of) that there has be a delay, the delay is "until DPR logs in and resyncs the block chain" or whatever he does.
I haven't been incredibly active with purchasing in the past few months, but in the last two years I've moved a considerable amount of money into SR. Without fail, every time my deposit hasn't shown up after 6 confirmations plus a couple of minutes, DPR has had to "fix" the problem.
So, you can argue your experience with this against my experience. I'd love to hear a much more technical discussion of how these delays can be externally driven and why they should be tolerated. Your flippant answer that "we're not losing money, the amount of bitcoins stays the same" is ridiculous. You realize, of course, that nearly every price on the SR is pegged to a floating average for the USD? Sure, you don't control that exchange rate, but failures such as these CAN cause a significant loss of value, often times preventing a customer from purchasing what they intended to purchase in the first place. Your response to that is, "We don't see you complaining when the price goes up!" Well, I can't speak for everybody else, but my standard operating procedure it to completely minimize the time between USD is converted into BTC, and when those BTC are put into escrow at the SR. I'm not interested in gambling with the exchange rate, but this failure in service is forcing me to.
Worse, the item I'm trying to buy may be sold out by the time I have the funds. It's really not appropriate to turn a blind eye to these concerns and blow them off like we're being impatient assholes. Worse yet, to argue with us and tell us that we should accept this with a shrug? This is a serious, high revenue business. The hobbyists posing as professionals with a "moderator" title (how many moderators have come and gone by now, btw?) should step back and wait until they have actual information instead of something copied and pasted from the list of approved responses.

hopefully the delay ends soon:) im at around 40 confirmations as well

I just wanted to point out that in my experience, the speed at which bitcoins are transferred to your wallet HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SPEED OF THE SITE ITSELF. What it does have to do with, I don't fucking know. The speed of other sites? But it can take a really long time. Or it can take 10 minutes. And I can find no pattern as to why it happens once one way and then next another.

I just wanted to point out that in my experience, the speed at which bitcoins are transferred to your wallet HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SPEED OF THE SITE ITSELF. What it does have to do with, I don't fucking know. The speed of other sites? But it can take a really long time. Or it can take 10 minutes. And I can find no pattern as to why it happens once one way and then next another.
yeah DPR (i think) updated about a coin deposit delay.
they will all prob go through soon. it always takes forever for me

I did not read this whole thread after I saw it break out into a pissing match.... I do not have the time right now.
The point:
Mods - what about moving coins OFF SR?
Im an getting an "invalid address" error when I try pulling coins out of SR.
Has this been reported?
Thanks!

I've said this several times in several threads!
Server loads? The block chain is the block chain. The records are there in 1s and 0s. It's either being parsed or it's not. Clearly the network is working, or we wouldn't be able to load the site. If the network is working, the server should have a current copy of the block chain. If the pages are loading, the server should have enough computing capacity to parse the block chain.
Clearly I don't know exactly how SR gets desynched from the block chain. But until somebody provides a technical explanation of how these deposit delays can be caused by things out of the control of SR, and resolved on their own, I'm calling bullshit. I'm pretty sure every time (at least, that I'm personally aware of) that there has be a delay, the delay is "until DPR logs in and resyncs the block chain" or whatever he does.
It ABSOLUTELY is affected by site downtime and server loads because it's not just a transfer from one wallet to another - it involves a third step because SR has a built-in coin tumbler to increase the anonymity of the btc going in and out of the site. SR also uses cold and hot storage, so when DPR has to move some coins from cold storage, it takes time. I didn't say the delays were out of SR's control - I NEVER said that. What I said is that the delays on SR are incredibly common, that no coins are lost, and that DPR is aware of the delays. Of course it is an SR issue, I have never stated otherwise.
Your flippant answer that "we're not losing money, the amount of bitcoins stays the same" is ridiculous. You realize, of course, that nearly every price on the SR is pegged to a floating average for the USD? Sure, you don't control that exchange rate, but failures such as these CAN cause a significant loss of value, often times preventing a customer from purchasing what they intended to purchase in the first place. Your response to that is, "We don't see you complaining when the price goes up!" Well, I can't speak for everybody else, but my standard operating procedure it to completely minimize the time between USD is converted into BTC, and when those BTC are put into escrow at the SR. I'm not interested in gambling with the exchange rate, but this failure in service is forcing me to.
My flippant answer? Are you serious? I've posted a LOT on the matter at hand - none of which has been dismissive. I have stated over and over again things that should reassure people about the status of their deposits until the delays are fixed. I didn't give a flippant answer to this situation - I have gone out of my way to respond in every thread I've seen about the issue.
Worse, the item I'm trying to buy may be sold out by the time I have the funds. It's really not appropriate to turn a blind eye to these concerns and blow them off like we're being impatient assholes. Worse yet, to argue with us and tell us that we should accept this with a shrug? This is a serious, high revenue business. The hobbyists posing as professionals with a "moderator" title (how many moderators have come and gone by now, btw?) should step back and wait until they have actual information instead of something copied and pasted from the list of approved responses.
I'm sorry if the delay causes you to miss ordering an item. For months now we've been advising people to initiate their deposits early in case these delays happen. We tell people to deposit early, and to deposit extra. That way, these problems can sometimes be at least somewhat avoided.
Your statement accusing me of "turning a blind eye to these concerns" is ridiculous and blatantly untrue. I've spent all afternoon trying to reassure people about what is going on. Beyond posting though, there's nothing more I can do. We've done all that we can to pass the information along to the admin and DPR - the only thing we CAN do is let people know that there are currently delays, that their coins are not lost, and that DPR is aware of the current delays.
I haven't blown anyone off - there's simply nothing more I can do from my end other than to inform DPR of what's going on and then try to calm the fears of those who don't know why their deposits haven't shown up and are scared that their coins are lost.
None of what I've said is copied and pasted - so your continued condescension is unnecessary. I DO have actual info - which is that DPR is aware of the delays, and that this has happened MULTIPLE times in the recent past. I am not a "hobbyist" - I have been a moderator here for months, and have been around for over a year. Maybe that's not qualification enough in your opinion, but it is exactly the reason I am able to say "this has happened before, delays are not abnormal, and everyone will receive their coins." Because I've seen it happen over and over again.

So, I made a deposit recently (a few hours ago) and I'm watching the confirmations rise bit by bit. I'm not really concerned, as I know my coins will arrive eventually.
I was just wondering if someone could clarify for me. Is ANYONE currently getting their deposits? Or is the deposit system just totally frozen and NOBODY is receiving their coins?
Just a little confused about the situation as I haven't been on the forums until now.

Seems pretty widespread. Some people are also having issues with withdrawals.

I understand your worry - the reason I'm not worried is because I've seen this all before (except for the attack!), it is always fixed, and everyone is always taken care of. The site is still here, the attacks are mostly over (as far as I understand), and now it's just a matter of getting back up and running smoothly again. Little hiccups along the way.
-
Last time the tumbler failed it took 72+ hours to get my coins. I hope it's much faster this time as the market fluctuations have me a bit worried.
But as always, scout is on it <3
I just hope I can still place my order by the time this is over haha

I'm at 86 confirmations into my "wallet", and 61 of it going "out" into SR tumbler. It sucks, but we're all in the same boat.

Guys, we're ALL still waiting. We're ALL in the same Boat here. All I can offer for reassurance is to say this has happened before, it'll happen again, DPR is aware of the issue, and it will be fixed as quickly as possible. Until then, again, we're all in the same Boat here.

Ah, it's just so frustrating! God knows this is when BTC would decide to get wrecked and shoot up in price >_<. Sucks for us who put in just enough to order and don't hold a balance in BTC. I usually keep a roughly 10% "cushion" on my order price when I buy coins to account for a coin swing but with deposits taking maybe 24 hours, you never quite know what can happen.

Looks like I derped my last post. Not used to boards like this. :-X

I checked my blockchain and my coins are headed to a different address now after 36 confirmations. Is this normal?

Yes, this is normal; what you're seeing is the Silk Road tumbler in action. You can read more about this on the SR Wiki here:

I think I should just bend over and let someone put it in my butt over how much money I'm losing.
This is seriously somewhat ridiculous however. Having something that is extremely volatile and goes through heavy fluctuations like bitcoin not readily available after the money is in the SR system (where everything is tied to the US dollar) is....do I even need to say it?

I suspect this is a problem with the coin tumbler - tracking a little test deposit I made it's not entered the main part of the coin tumbler after 60 confirmations.

So does this mean our coins are stuck in limbo? If the coin tumbler is rejecting transactions then they're sitting in throwaway wallets?

gah this sucks

Silk Road retains control over all the wallet addresses in the tumbler; if it is indeed an issue with the tumbler then it will be fixed and all Bitcoin will be credited to the correct addresses as there is a record on the blockchain of who originally sent what where.

I highly doubt it - it is most likely that the process would be automated with a script or something similar; however, it is important note that this is complete conjecture. We don't know if there IS trouble with the tumbler at all.

Ive been waiting too. I have an order sat processing for a few days, now the vendors listings have gone down, so I ordered some more coins, to make a fresh order with another seller. I ordered and received my coins no problem they sent over to SR, I don't know how to check the chain but I have waited since 3pm uk yesterday, and its never took more than a couple of hours before, but they have still not shown up.
Got to work now, I hope they are here when I get back, as the 24hrs will have well passed by then.

Easiest way to check is to go to blockchain.info and search for you BTC address. But as it seems, there is an issue with everyone receiving BTC deposits on the site so you are not alone. And we've been reassured through the mods numerous times that the coins will, eventually, reach their destination. So all is well.

My deposited coins have started to bounce around. Got sent from a smaller shell wallet to a much bigger one. Hopefully the tumbler is in working order then.

just curious as to how many hours people have been waiting for their BTC transfer? i've seen a couple 4 hours here, one person as long as 11 hours...has anyone at all actually gotten a transfer to happen at all in the past 10 hours or so?

So it sounds like things are starting to move again -- great news! Thanks for coming back to the thread to let us know that things are starting to work out!

I'm sitting at about 8 hours now for two deposits initiated roughly the same time (a larger one, then a smaller one I used as a test). The small deposit, being only $2, is further along in progress than the other one which is over a bit over the hundred dollar mark. The larger one still has yet to begin the tumbling process, whereas I suspect the smaller one will probably finish sometime within the next couple hours at the rate it's moving along. No idea if it has something to do with data size/BTC amount. Could be that it will reach a dead end as well, and won't end up in my wallet unless an Admin steps in.
Who knows, who knows.
Time for bed though, good luck on getting your coins in a timely manner everyone. Hopefully when I wake up I can place my order as well!

how can i check if my coins have started in the tumbling process?
-
www.blockchain.info - enter the wallet tied to your SR account (the one you initiated the first transfer to). You should see if the wallet has held your balance, and if the tumbling process has started it will show a 0 balance and a transaction initiated into another shell wallet. This wallet will in turn show a number of transactions into it (not only your own, this is the tumbling process) and so on and so forth.

at 30 and 48 confirmations after over 6 hours. Again with btc drop while the cash is not in my hands. there is no doubt it cost vendors sales because if i cant buy it costs them a sale

That's because it's been pushed into another wallet. Tumbling is not only one wallet transfer, it's probably 3 or 4 min. It takes awhile for it to move through the system normally and there DEFINITELY is some type of delay in the backend as I've had coins that should have been accessible to me hours ago as well.
It pisses me off too because I happened to have a very large transfer inbound and now I'm bleeding cash with the BTC fluctuations. They really need to make a hedging option available for buyers transferring funds in as well.
@Akaijunkie Thanks. Makes me wonder how I get to pile up neg karma with posts like these lol.

Transferred a small amount from my ASIC miner and made a 200$ purchase about 18 hours ago...Blockchain has fully confirmed both initial transactions and tumbles, yet no coin yet, and the UnderGroundSyndicate is taking a break after tomorrow so this could've been rather inconvenient, luckily a badass i know loaned me the coin to make my purchase in the meantime. Seems escrow money/transfering to users directly is fine, but getting them to SR from outsource is a problem. Guess i shouldn't be worried for another 6 hours?
-
First I lose $400 and about 7 days waiting for Coinbase coins to show up and now I can't get my coinage to SR. WTF! I need some weed. Please help.

The last time this happened it took a few days to fix, so people probably stop clock watching/confirmation counting driving themselves nuts..

How can it happen? It's a delay somewhere along the line - possibly with the coin tumbler, I don't know - but it has happened before and will happen again. Nothing has been compromised and no, the DDoS guy doesn't have his hands on your coin.
-
This is not a complaint just adding to the statistics. I have now been waiting 24 hrs as of 5 minutes ago for coins to arrive. It wasn't a very large amount but I can't place the order I was wishing to make. I am not worried that they will not arrive but I do hope that it doesn't take too much longer and hope that this issue doesn't occur too often. Lots on the plate of the powers over the last few weeks.
We do seem to be going through a tough patch at the moment with one thing and another but once all is fixed and back to normal it will soon be forgotten. Till the next time anyway. Just don't forget we are on the cutting edge of rebellion and with that comes challenges.

So has this delay only happened to a certain few or has no one received coin in their SR wallet in the last 24 hours or so?
-
This is not a complaint just adding to the statistics. I have now been waiting 24 hrs as of 5 minutes ago for coins to arrive. It wasn't a very large amount but I can't place the order I was wishing to make. I am not worried that they will not arrive but I do hope that it doesn't take too much longer and hope that this issue doesn't occur too often. Lots on the plate of the powers over the last few weeks.

I'm in the same boat as this guy, approaching 24 hours. Keep up the good work on the site and the forums :)
-
This is sketchy as fuck,how can this happen?
Hope the ddos guy hasnt got his hands on my coin.
How can it happen? It's a delay somewhere along the line - possibly with the coin tumbler, I don't know - but it has happened before and will happen again. Nothing has been compromised and no, the DDoS guy doesn't have his hands on your coin.
Any word from DPR???
14 hours and waiting
-
So can vendors withdraw coin from completed transactions while ours are locked up trying to buy stuff? This is a terrible situation to be in as that means vendors cashing out can drive coin prices down while ours are stuck in limbo and dropping in value.
Just sayin.
-
Im at 12 hrs.... next time SR should put something on the site warning us of this..I would have never have even tried to deposit my coin if I knew people were not receiving theirs.
-
Any word from DPR???
14 hours and waiting
Nope, and I think that is unacceptable. Whatever. The mod's and the 'heros' will call me names but fuck it. I want my product or my money. And now this forum is flaking out. What next?
-
Might be a blessing in disguise,the feds might of got their hands on my package if i ordered today.
As long as i get my coin eventually i live to fight another day.
-
It's coming up on 24 hours for me now too. I only have a few hours left or I will miss my vendor of the product I made the deposit for. I have messaged support twice and no response. I know it says "up to 48 hours" for a response from support, but when we're talking about people losing access to their money I think there needs to be a priority.
I appreciate all you do for us. I think all we are saying is we've all made dozens if not hundreds of deposits and the coins show up within minutes of hitting 6 confirmations. It is somewhat he
In my case I made the deposit specifically because my vendor is going on vacation tonight and I need to get the order in by about noon today. I fully expected to wake up and see my btc or at least an answer from support. I have neither. I am trying to be upbeat and optimistic, but if I miss this vendor before he/she leaves for vacation I am going to end up paying twice as much for a lesser product. So please, please, please help me out and get the coins pushed through.
-
two year road vet here....waiting about 17 hours now. Everybody settle down....one time a few months ago I had to wait five days, lol. DPR will come through.
-
I'm with Farts on this one. We are dealing with a situation that I'm sure noone, especially DPR wants to be happening but it's just a hitch. I deposited over $800 yesterday, blockchain and my wallet both show a successful transaction with over 30 confirmations but still no show in my account. It seems that something fucked up when I reset my deposit address to a new one. I transferred $900+ day before yesterday to my old deposit address and it went through in 6 confirmations. Oh well, try not to get your panties in a knot. All will be good soon. I know it's nerve wracking when money is involved but it will get straightened out. Keep the faith.
-
I just wanted to pop in here to remind everyone that your Bitcoin will be credited to your accounts as soon as the issue is resolved. Unfortunately I cannot give a time-frame for this but you WILL get your Bitcoin, as you always do.
I sincerely apologise to all of you who are being put out as a result of this issue. :(

-
Same here, waiting for over 500$ in BTC, really sucks. I'm OK about waiting a short time, but I'd hate to lose $ is the vaule drops. Hope its resolved asap, thanks!
-
Yeah, this isn't cool.
When there is a known issue like this, why is there not a warning on the SR front page? This is pretty unprofessional. It would take seconds to update.
-
Brussels: For the same reason this isn't fixed yet, because DPR isn't currently available. That's how it goes on the road. If he had time to update the front page with a warning, he most likely would have already fixed this issue by now.
I'm at 170 confirmations, no coin, and several percentage points of loss in value.
I think DPR needs to credit us the USD value in BTC that our coins were worth when they were deposited. Won't happen, but that's what a real business would do.
-
deposited excess of 6 BTC today morning. Have got confirmations but waiting for the amount to clear and show up in my account
Hope issue gets resolved soon as I just realised I'll need to deposit another 3 tomorrow.

DPR shouldn't be the only person capable of posting a brief warning. Hell, even a forum announcement would help. Having to search around before making a standard deposit is impractical. At the very least sticky a thread like this.
And here come the -1's for daring to point out where SR could improve.
-
Don't be too worried folks. I've had to wait 2 days for mine to clear before but they eventually did
-
Made a transfer to my SR account around 10PM last night. Here I am (8 1/2 hours later) after waking up 30min early to make some orders before I leave for work. Logged to my SR account only to realize my funds did not make my SR address even after 84 successful confirmations and 14 transfers. My heart started to race followed with some sort of extreme concern and fear and anger asking myself how could this be? Why? Did I do something wrong? I know I can't be more paranoid than I already am. I triple check everything. Then I found this thread...my heart felt less and stabilizing. I guess it does suck dying alone - so they say
-
And here come the -1's for daring to point out where SR could improve.
Yup, I just got another one. I wish the mod's would really try to help other members out around here instead of towing the company line and punishing those who dare to question something that's f'ed up. Whatever. It is also very disheartening that DPR himself has not shown up to assuage the anxiety. I placed my first and second orders on Atlantis last night because of this crap and I'll look for more opportunities to do the same in the future.
-
both my deposits have officially cleared the blockchain, but still no coin in my SR account.. still waiting on that 1200 that's now shrunk to who knows what.
-
Its all good folks.
During the outage, many withdrew funds. Now, everyone is putting them back in. This causes a backlog. And the tumbler that shuffles the coins and mixes them up, moves slowly but steady. It will catch up.
All you need is the record in the block chain. You see it in there, then your funds are safe and sound. The system-wide accounting 'ledger' or blockchain as they call it, has to be downloaded over and over and updated on the machine locally (or server) to show the most recent transactions.
This has been slow lately for my personal wallet software and other sites. I notice my wallet app is slow to show transactions and it took about 20 minutes to see it appear in the block chain from my wallet, which scared the hell out me. So, there seems to be issues with things outside of Silk Road for sure.
I think this is why there has been nothing from DPR. Its just a patience thing.

I'm waiting for my btc too :(
-
Having a delay in coins arriving to my account. It has been over 8 hours since 6 confirmations were made, while usually coins start trickling in ~3-5 hours in. I usually use blockchain's "send anonymously" feature, which gives me a fowarding wallet, but I checked the end wallet in my SR account and the wallet I deposited into and the SR account is about 0.5 BTC short. Not stressing out or anything, just wanted to put it out there just in case coins do arrive but not all at once.

Bullshit. No other coin transfers are taking any extra time. I know because I've moved a lot in the last 8 hours with no delay - except for here. Now go back to sleep.
-
guys i tranferred bitcoins last night at 2100 hours, from a reputable site and the coins have still not deposited into my SR account, thought it was just me.........Iv been on to that other site defo been sent to my SR account and its still a now show. Emailed SR support no reply as yet
could really do with this sorted to get orders in for the weekend
-
@Jbourne, you're in the same boat as all of us, friend. I was hoping to order some supplies for a college graduation party--I don't know if that's going to happen... We just gotta be patient and have faith that DPRs staff will resolve it as fast as they can.They have not let me down yet.
-
yeah its been over 24hrs for me, still nothing in my account..
-
Bitcoin crashing...
-
Just wanted to let everyone know that it's been over 24 hours for me now as well since I made my deposit. The transaction has gotten 164 confirmations. Made a support ticket so hopefully this can all get resolved seeing as we all want our btc :/
-
It'd be great if the first of us to see their coins hit can post in this thread so we know they are at least starting to clear the backlog.
I noticed I fucked up the amount (didn't allow the postage) as it turns out the value fluctuations will make it so it doesn't matter anyway. lol.
Best of luck guys, keep the faith.

I have lost at least $100+ its ruff i have never had take move than 4 hours and that seemed forever. I hope to hear of coins coming threw

Scout said he been in touch with DPR hours ago.
If it IS every deposit for up to 24 hours, then the backlog would be pretty massive. I haven't seen anyone say coins had arrived yet, so its basically still growing.
-
Man this starts to look a lot like Tony72 in the last hours. Mods can say what they want, but no matter how you slice it, SR and DPR made a shit-load of money before BTC ever went above 5$, they can basically sit back for the rest their lives counting the money. But now they have ours and it isn't bouncing back to original accounts and it isn't getting to where it should.
No matter what any Mod or SR staff member says or DPR says: at this point, not some DDoS attack- at this point - when you can't tell your customers where the money is, and ask for more time rather than just implementing an entire rollback for the amount of time you've lost control of the site, during which there was a drop of over 12 dollars in avg BTC price at Mt Gox- 97 confirmations, 79 confirmations, and 39 confirmations as 13 hours later no cash at the address.
It would make one hell of a get away wouldn't it? How much money would that actually be?
In the 100,000's of dollars.
Yeah, sure you guys can ride on your reputation about 12 hours more until this site has to be given thumbs down.
Because if you can't keep the MONEY SAFE, WHAT GOOD ARE YOU!?!
-

The backlog is growing and the course is crashing....
-
I think DPR needs to credit us the USD value in BTC that our coins were worth when they were deposited. Won't happen, but that's what a real business would do.
After all the money we've put into this place I'm a little bit upset this happens time and time again. Hire more staff!
I'm not trying to break balls or anything, but I'm not exactly made of money. Not only do I have to wait 2+ days to order my meds, there's a chance I won't even be able to order them after this whole ordeal, and in turn have to put in more coins (let's hope something doesn't go wrong then too!)
-
Yeah I'm also out $1000....
Block Chain has logged over 150 confirmations and still not in my account... Over 24 hours later. I really hope this is just a delay.
-
>24h for me now, out of ~1400$.
Also, payments from customers come through, but the feedbacks are missing for the last 5-6 finalized transactions.
-
I'm at 28 hours. Bitcoin was worth £79 a coin when I made the deposit, it's now at £64/coin so I won't be able to get what I originally deposited the money to buy :(
-
:( Yup, over 24 hours here as well. If we're luck bitcoin will rebound today, but it looks like it is continuing to slide down. I hope I get control of my coins tomorrow.
-
yeah I've already lost $300 worth of value just waiting for this to come through.. btc was at 123 when I bought and transferred.. It just keeps going lower and lower.. Really getting irritated, I understand these things happen but we're all losing money here.. I buy my coins right before I order so I don't lose or gain anything and what I pay for is already higher than what I exchange at due to fees and SR's buy price being the weighted average. Vendors have options to hedge their coins in escrow.. I really think the same rules should apply when users are making deposits.
-
on the bright side.. Its going to be a good time to buy some more coin soon.
I too am down from the drop and no being able to access my coin
-
22 hours now for me and still dont see them in my account. Plus, blockchain isnt showing how many confirmations i have now. Getting frustrating.
-
This is annoying. Worst is of course the fact that you're losing money just by letting it sit in limbo. I don't have a huge amount of money waiting (about $100), but I do know that I can't make the order I wanted to (I got only slightly more BTC to compensate for fluctuations because I expect the BTC to crash soon enough).
-
Would be nice to see a comment from DPR or inigo, collectively we're losing a lot of value.
-
This is this VERY frustrating. I believe in DPR and SR, but in the past 2 weeks I've lost nearly $400 to connectivity issues (without notice), and now to this. Our vendors pay a premium (which is partially shifted onto us the buyer). While SR is down BMR is running fine and taking less of a cut from its seller. How, in a free market, can you justify loyalty to SR? I'm honestly asking to understand not to flame. I love and respect DPR, he has made my life better.
-
Yeah. I can't believe this. I'm all for understanding blockchain takes time, but when its your fault that customers lose money (make no mistake, money was lost siting in limbo,) someone should be held accountable. If bitcoin stays at this value, I just lost $500. Money which was going to be immediately used before the price drop.
-
My understanding is this is a tumbler problem? Why does SR have a tumbler? Is it to protect the administrators, because I can always use a private tumbler service if it would mean avoiding delays such as this.
-
I cant believe there hasnt been any comment about this problem yet, from a legitimate source
-
I had my buddy send some coins to an external BTC wallet when SR was down, and then yesterday I tried to transfer them over here so I could order her meds. Almost 24 hours later and no coins in my account. Wish I had seen this thread before I did that...
-
How many -1's will I get if I wonder whether our coins are being flipped rather than tumbled and that they'll soon be bought back and delivered to our accounts at this new lower value?
-
Just throwin' this in here...
20+ hours now, no deposit into SR
I have 60+ successful deposits, never a problem until now...
:)
-
First time posting in the big boy forum! I feel honored. But yes, I am suffering from this problem too, its going on 28 hours.
-
Has anyone else been experiencing the site dropping out of connection and the login page reappearing (sometimes with just 3 number captcha)??
I think it is also quite disconcerting....

Yeah this is happening to me and I've seen a few other people post about it.
-
Add my name to the list, over 26 hours and absolutely nothing. Real fucking frustrating. Worst part is even if I attempt to send the coin to make up for the devaluation ill have to wait another day (at the earliest) for the new transaction to hit. Ridiculous
-
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
-
I'm unclear, are all deposits getting stuck or just some?
-
Can we please get a status update on this? I'm past the 24 hour mark and all I've heard is "don't worry". I can't help but worry. The coins have lost value and I missed the window I had to get what I needed. I have an option for a replacement seller but if I don't the order in soon I'll have some pretty substantial problems. I really do appreciate all you do here and how complex it must be.
Please consider things from a buyer's perspective for a moment. Some of us have been on here quite a while and done many deposits. I have never seen it take more than a few minutes after about 7 confirmations for the coins to appear. So when I saw over 10 confirmations and suddenly the coins were moved from my account out into other accounts it was a reasonable conclusion to think I had been hacked or compromised in some way. I still believe this is a possibility because I have not heard from DPR himself about what is going on. Perhaps my account itself wasn't hacked, but something is preventing the coins from making it where they belong. This caused a wonderfully reputable seller from losing my business before he/she left for vacation and is causing me to worry about detoxing at an inconvenient time. I respect the hell out of you all who run this site and appreciate the assurances that "it's all good just wait". But I would love to hear from DPR himself that it is all good and possibly even an estimate of when the coins will transfer. In my case I am not worried about some festival or other big event. I am worried about getting sick and missing work. If I had RL contacts I would have pinged them already!
This is not a flame. It's simply a request for more info from the big man. Thanks in advance for any insight he can provide.
-
It's been almost 30 hours since I transferred funds to SR - still nothing, like the rest. I understand that technical glitches happen (I hope that is all this is!) but I am baffled by the lack of response from DPR regarding this. There is obviously a problem with SR (likely the tumbler, but who knows), and I think it is time DPR announced what the issue is, and when it will be rectified.
SR is a for-profit enterprise and while the btc problem may not be fixed immediately, customers should expect to be kept apprised of the status of their deposits!
PB.

I want my coins ;(
-
ATTENTION!
Just received my coins :D Hope you guys will follow soon enough.

WOOHOO. My coins arrived!!!
-
Just received my coins as well. Looks like DPR finally logged in.
Moderators? Feel free to apologize to me in the form of a silk road gift certificate.
-
Got mine... but now I have to buy $100 extra in BTC to make up for the loss to place this order lol
-
Just wanted to add that I am also having problems with my deposit since yesterday (money not showing in account) and I feel very frustrated that I wasn't able to shop this morning. I have contacted support but have not heard back. I would like to know where the money is at this point and why is it taking so much longer this time. I think an update is overdue!
UPDATE: Money is here.
-
My coins arrived as well, happy to say :)
-
Got my coins!
-
Just received mine as well after 23 hours, wish coin value would have held steady through this.
-
Mine just arrived too ;D
Now i'm short 0.02 for an order, doh!
-
Coins landed.
-
yup me too. Price droped. guess its the nature of the beast.
-
yep coins are here! gonna wait for btc to go up a bit then gonna order ::)
-
I received my coins! Thanks for all the hard work DPR and the rest of the Silk Road staff.
-
Hopefully DPR or a moderator can tell us if the backlog is now all clear. Want to make sure if i do another transfer that it wont take this long again.
-
yay my coins are here, but I have $300 less than I should have when I bought them... great...
-
Mine arrived as well... now I have to figure out if I'm gonna add some more BTC or just order less. Meh.
-
Why are people complaining about the price drop so much? For me, BTC only dropped 8$ since i ordered yesterday morning. I barely lost anything -_-
-
Coins arrived ... and there was much rejoicing!
... is 24+hours the new normal?
:)
-
Coins in thanks SR
Told u nothing to worry about its not the first problem wont be the last but DPR and the team always pull through
Thanks
-
Mine just arrived too ;D
Now i'm short 0.02 for an order, doh!
Message me your SR name and Ill hook you up. Last year I gave out about 5 coins lol they were worth 4.50 a coin. Should of held on to those bitches I would of had a grand.
hit me up if you need that .02
Peace
-
Why are people complaining about the price drop so much? For me, BTC only dropped 8$ since i ordered yesterday morning. I barely lost anything -_-
well I bought 10.5 coins for ~123 a pop yesterday morning, for $1300 plus some extra in fees... My coins are in my account and worth 1129 currently.. That's a decrease in $171 which wouldn't have happened if I was able to spend my coins yesterday as planned. For those of us with >1000 invested, a drop in $10 definitely hurts.. It would have been nice to know of the issue beforehand so I could have waited until today to buy my coins, and get more for the same price.
It sucks, but it's the nature of the game.. I'm not going to sit here crying over $200 but it's definitely something to be addressed in the long run if it continues to be an issue. If those of us buying on here are reselling, making that $200 back isn't a difficult task.
-

For those ordering stuff for own consumption it sucks. I lost about 0.07 BTC, which is only $ 7,50 or something, but it's enough that I can't put a order in right now. 0.05 BTC short. Hopefully the vendor does something cool for me, as adding those coins to my account will incur all kinds of transaction fees again.
-
I got my bitcoins sometime in the last 4.5 hours, been at the emergency room so I couldn't say for sure (Good Times!) ended up with 75, 34, and 26 conformations. The original price was 2.04BTCs, now its 2.16 BTC, so i am not going to make the trade. I'm just pulling out. Sorry, this needs to be addressed before you can expect any more purchases from me here. These are my minor but excellent stats, if you dont want my 1200$, then continue with the probs. Honestly, as a nice crook, I'm telling you nicely....

Just did it, Very easy trick. Staright to adress, bam 1 hour, no hassle no mt gox.

Just got my coins as well right as it was hitting the 24 hour mark. Now I just need the BTC to rebound before I can place the order I wanted too :-\
-
Hopefully DPR or a moderator can tell us if the backlog is now all clear. Want to make sure if i do another transfer that it wont take this long again.
I got my coins, and then I sent more coins to make up for the deficit caused by BTC depreciation. I received those coins within minutes of the 6th confirmation and placed my order.
Problem appears fixed and no "backlog" anymore.

Awesome, thanks for confirming that.

can also confirm that, I just sent some more coin into my account and got it after 6 confirmations, took about an hour tops.
-
Ok, I really hate to beg, but in light of this topic I hope that someone could help me out... I've just changed some stuff regarding my order, but I'm still 0.01 BTC short. It's $1, which would be ridiculous to buy... the transaction fees are higher than the BTC itself ;). If someone could spot me that, I will be grateful forever and will give it back with my next order!

So can vendors withdraw coin from completed transactions while ours are locked up trying to buy stuff? This is a terrible situation to be in as that means vendors cashing out can drive coin prices down while ours are stuck in limbo and dropping in value.
Just sayin.
All the BTC on SR BARELY affects the BTC economy as a whole.
Don't believe me? As many times as SR gone down for prolong amounts of time (last week / 2 weeks ago being the most recent) BTC price has not noticably affected.
I know, we would all like to think that the BTC only exists for SR, truth is the real BTC market aside from SR is much much larger.
-
Yep BC there now, all seems good.
-
went through for me too:)
much love SR crew
-
I had the same thing happen, it just took much longer than usual. Over 15 hours to be transferred into the account... and in the mean time the prices went down so i ended up 20$ short of the amount i needed.... what a shame!
-
I'm afraid I can't go through all 400 pages of this thread. Has the 'deposit delay' issue appear to have been resolved?
Seems like it by the last few posts. Anyone care to chime in? Before this poor old man sends his coins to SR?

Yes, it should all be working well now. :) DPR posted an update earlier in the day saying that if anyone was still missing deposits, they should send a message to SR Support. Otherwise, yep, should all be resolved.
-
Thanks Scout.
-
had my coins from yesterday come in.
Made a deposit today as well, just waiting on those. Only been a couple of hours anyways and I'm not fussed,
Thanks DPR and crew for your speed in the matter as alwats
-
deposited about an hour ago took around 45 mins which is very good probably fastest yet so hopefully DPR has found a fix and started implementing it. Good old DPR he must be a busy man right now *sends him a pint*.
-
I think it's safe to lock this thread now as the issue has been resolved. Thank you all for being so patient, even though I know it's worrisome when coins are floating about!
