I have a payout they attempted to send 46.5 hours ago and it still has zero confirmations, and I sent directly to my wallet. Sending to Coinbase is likely not the problem, as myself and others are experiencing long wait times for the network to come thru for us. Though, it is certainly not a good idea to send money from a gambling site to an exchange that, in theory, should not be accepting btc from a gambling site. They have shut down accounts in the past for this, not sure about confiscating funds. But I haven't heard that happen a lot and I'm pretty sure many people do not realize they need to have the wallet as a buffer between the gambling site and the exchange.
I called them and went over the issue and they provided an email address to send pics of my wallet and the data showing zero confirmations, as the rep said it must be escalated to the withdrawals dept, who can look at the data and figure it out.
Checks and wires are still fine options, though checks take slightly longer than before BTC was available, so I'm assuming they cut ties w some processors to save money for themselves, as many have gone the BTC route. But they still come within their stated timeframe so far.
ETF if I wake up tomorrow still isn't there, I'd be willing to send you seals chips or whatever if you could help me handle this. Ironically, 12 hours after I received the acknowledgement from electrum that a payout had been initiated, I sent $500 back to Ignition to play with (electrum allows you to send unconfirmed funds, which themselves cant be confirmed until the original is). Over the last 2 days I've run that $500 up to almost 11k and when I requested a payout the automated message said I couldn't even request it bc my $500 btc deposit to them had not yet been confirmed! WOW this is frustrating but bovada/ignition has never failed to pay anybody and I'm pretty confident this will be all set within the next day or two. ETF I got no problem overpaying you if you can get something done that I cant figure out wrt to the technical aspects of the transaction and what is the best solution going forward. My main concern is that they expect me to forfeit what I've won over the last two days because the $500 of their BTC that I sent back to them to play was never received by them.
Appreciate anyone's response, thx
