XRP-JAG Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 1 minute ago, ajay16790 said: Hi, I am new to crypto. Was trying to setup my gatehub account to buy XRP, sent BTC to the address shown in my account before activating the wallet as the instructions weren't clear enough. Activated the wallet using Bithomp but haven't received my BTCs yet, it has been 24+ hours now. Has anyone come across something similar? Did you receive your BTCs later on? The delay makes me really nervous,any helpful suggestions/opinions will be useful. Thanks! Took 12hrs for activation few days back for me after my BTC bounced back. Yesterday/today took over 17 hours for my BTC to go into an activated wallet. It's bloody slow at the moment, but it does happen eventually.

ajay16790 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 @XRP-JAG Thank you for your reply. In my case the BTCs didn't bounce back. When I checked the blockcypher for the Gatehub provided BTC address, the coins seemed to have come through (Coinbase BTC wallet to Gatehub BTC address) and then transferred over to a completely new address. I was expecting the coins to be held in this address for me to make use of once the wallet becomes active. it's now active but the BTC balance is 0.

XRP-JAG Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Sorry, bad terminology from me. They didn't bounce back to where I sent. They sat in limbo for that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajay16790 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) @XRP-JAG If I get it right, your BTCs where sat in the Gatehub BTC address for that long without being transferred to a different BTC address at all? When checked in blockchain/cypher/trail? Edited January 3, 2018 by ajay16790 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRP-JAG Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 @ajay16790 BTC left Coinbase 30th Dec at 10:11 AM. It's not until 3:57 PM I get the 'Missing Trustline' email. I sort the XRP to activate the wallet 9:06 PM same day. No more emails, contact or anything until BTC finally shows in Gatehub 5:07 AM on 31st Dec. It showed as completed on Coinbase / Blockchain within 30-60 mins of being originally sent. Hope that puts your mind at rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajay16790 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 @XRP-JAG that sounds quite close to my case, its just that the delay is longer. I hope it gets credited tomorrow at least. Thank you very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRP-JAG Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 No worries! As I think I said earlier it was 17hrs today a straight forward Coinbase to Gatehub ETH transfer. So seems delays getting longer ajay16790 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josemi Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I am a newbie to crypto and I have a similar issue than @ajay16790, I deposited BTC from Coinbase to Gatehub in order to activate the wallet but I can not activate it without XRP so... My phone number is verified but the wallet is not activated. I do not know what to do, should I wait and finally the transaction will be ok? or should I activate the wallet with bithomp? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRP-JAG Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 @Josemi - I'm awaiting 7 days and counting for Gatehub to active. Buy more BTC or ETH from Coinbase, then use https://shapeshift.io/#/coins to convert into XRP to sending to Gatehub which will activate the wallet.

Brahmesh Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Better NOT USE THIS NON SENSE STUPID SITE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRP-JAG Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 @Brahmesh - You need to send 20 XRP to Gatehub wallet to activate it in order to receive the ETH. Look at the post above yours by me how to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josemi Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 @XRP-JAG so your account is not yet activated after 7 days?? wow why do not you use Shapeshift to activate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used Shapeshift to active the wallet. You don't need to be validated on Gatehub to send/receive Crypto. What I can't do is deposit directly into Gatehub with Euro or USD until validated.
