Bitcoin Withdrawal

[BLUEDEVIL2009]

withdrew for the first time on bitcoin.... the sportsbook (HS) says that it has been paid (thats what the request says) but it's not showing up in my bitcoin... should I call or does it generally take a little time?

takes time....I think about 48 hours but I am not well versed

 

[BLUEDEVIL2009]

thank you. I"ve never used bitcoin before so I'm just confused I guess... will I get an alert via email when the bitcoins gets processed? I just gave them the address where it says "receive money" or whatever that was. LOL

Coinbase and circle both have apps that will push a notification when the funds arrive.

You made the right move. It's normal to have to wait a bit, but I do find it aggravating as imo bitcoin should be processed within seconds. I've never had a problem though.

With many bitcoin books, the payouts are close to instant. If it's taking a while, many times it means that the fee sent is too low. If this is the case, you may need to rebroadcast it. You need the transaction number from the book.

You can rebroadcast it by adding "?format=hex" to the end of the blockchain.info/tx URL. https://blockchain.info/pushtx

You did it right. It will take some time for the transaction to confirm.

If you go here: https://blockchain.info/

You can paste where you had them send the funds and it will show whether the transaction has been confirmed or not. 3 Confirmations and you should have a notification that you received funds.

Transactions to your blockchain.info wallet show up prior to confirmations. Each sportsbook and wallet will set their own standard for confirmations needed. It's between 0 and 6 confirmations.

This is how to rebroadcast if the fee was too low.

Right now a fee of 15 cents should go through. If the fee is less, there can be delays.

I downloaded the bitcoin app, then the coinbase app. Coinbase has verified my account and the USD wallet has been established...

Using BETDSI (U.K.) and they increased the allowable limits to withdraw.

Would you withdraw $10k worth in bitcoin and convert or just go the bank draft/bank wire method?
