    bitcoin problem!!!!!

    I made a deposit using bitcoin to a sportsbook, it has been 8 hours no deposit has been credited to my account, they say it has no confirmation on the block chain and to wait. What are my options in this situation? am i ever going to see that money credited to my account?

    No your money wont be lost.

    It will eventually turn up at the book or be returned to you.

    You can try this How to rebroadcast a bitcoin transaction.

    It depends on the reason for the delay. But when the network is bogged down it has taken up to a couple of days in the past.

    That doesn't seem to the case right now though. And you'd still be expecting much faster than that.

    If it still hasn't been credited post the transaction ID and we can have a look at it.

    It will be credited eventually. To make it a lot faster, increase the fee size. I always increase it to 80 cents. Always get it confirmed within half an hour or less.

    This is definitely the way to do it. I always use the advance send now. If you do this, it will get confirmed in the very next block. I have been using around $1 each time

    Yup, before I was sending whatever the standard fee Blockchain was setting to. Thanks to Optional for the tip, I only send 80 cents now and it gets in the Blockchain very quickly.

    I still can't figure out how to get my transactions to go through quickly. I've tried sending more in fees and it seems pretty random when it gets confirmed. I have a transaction that was sent with around 71 cents as the fee that's been sitting with 0 confirmations for 4 hours now.

    The transaction I sent that had 71 cents as a fee is still sitting out there with 0 confirmations...almost 9 hours has gone by. Meanwhile, I sent a separate transaction to a completely different address with 34 cents as a fee and it was confirmed within 45 minutes.... How does that make sense?

    Did the incoming transaction confirm yet that the the bitcoins came from? You won't get a confirmation until that one does even if you put a million dolllars as a fee. Just an idea
