[Merge Network] Carbon/ Sportsbook/ PlayersOnly - Deposit/ Withdrawal Thread - Page 426 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I got this message and accepted because there is probably a good reason for it.

How long after you declined did you receive your BTC?

There has been a huge spike on BTC lately which may mean they don't want to be at risk for losses on cashouts etc... Sure they would have made a ****load if they had been sitting on BTC but it could easily go south as the market has been pretty fast lately.

I just think them wanting to spray out the wires comes down to balancing cashouts in some sense and I don't think they would be doing this without a good reason.

Maybe they are low on BTC and some Processor has a bunch of money to spray wires (which haven't been used much in this thread much lately)

All speculation but I accepted

Took 1 business day to process the wire

Do you still have BTC as a withdrawal option or did they yank that when they enabled your wires?

****ing misclick canceled a withdrawal via btc that I initiated on 6/2. Resubmitted 6/7.

Be careful what you click. They don't even ask for a confirmation when you click cancel. Standard

Blockchain digits always vary and work for me.

6/7- Cancelled BTC due to address possibly being used before. Created new address and re-submitted BTC request. 34 characters.

Your lucky that wasn't an active address or you would never see your money. Always copy paste!

Good advice for those who can copy & paste w/o difficulty. Ran into a c&p problem trying to deposit on WPN yesterday. Ended up manually typing in 34 characters. So, in the future, I'll copy down the characters before I try to copy & paste. This will also allow me to compare with past addresses.

it seems this is a request of Bovadas. WPN does not seem to care, i think maybe once they requested i create a new address. Merge, i am not sure but it seems it can not hurt from my experiences. I have only done one BTC merge wd and have another currently pending since 06/09

This is nearly impossible. The probability of a mistake being a valid address effectively 0.

Not sure what they are trying to accomplish with demanding new addresses. I assume merge/bovada are worried about transaction analysis, but I'm not sure why.

Good to hear, I always wondered this myself.

It's especially interesting that bovada does this considering that any max BTC cashout you initiate off of their site is broken up into ~$3k increments every few days by them, all sent to the same BTC address.
