Have you confirmed the email you received? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Moved to "Gateways" If you're trying to move BTC, there's a large transaction backlog. You may be waiting for several more hours. If you have the transaction ID, check to see if your transaction has any confirmations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbartley Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Yeah, go to blockchain.info to see it's status. Three's a huge backlog right now because of the 1MB limit. Many gateways/exchanges require 6 or more confirmations so you will likely be waiting for a long while... theroadnottaken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbartley Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 It actually probably makes the most sense to convert BTC to XRP for transferring between exchanges and then exchange back if there's enough liquidity. That if you're willing to lose a small amount to benefit from the speed of the Ripple network. faz, Live4xrp and xudiannan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEah mine from Bitstamp to Ripple are stuck too. Maybe they are internally sending the BTC to a different address, so they need some confirmation too. But usually it takes a few minutes...
