Sent you PM with the info. Thanks for your help.
I am a blockhead with all this bitcoin stuff.
Like spin a dead cat over your left shoulder and howl at the moon to send a bitcoin to me.
I got the message
I sent back a reply
I wanna post some of the same message I sent you (minus the private stuff) , so others can also see this, as it pertains to a little bit of understanding how bitcoin transactions work and how it works thru a Bitcoin Miner especially.
Okay this is written assuming that a Bitcoin Miner was involved in the transaction, but generally is same info for other bitcoin methods. But other methods are usually completed sooner.
Use Blockchain Explorer and enter the bitcoin crypto address ID into the Search Bar found there on the website.
You could also use the transaction ID or blockchain ID as well as the bitcoin crypto address.
The options seen thru results may vary between these 3 choices.
Okay lets say a Miner was used and so far no email or etc was received.
So take that ID and enter it in the Explorer's search bar.
In AeonFlux's case, the results all show as zero so far.
Total Received: 0.00000000 BTC
Total Sent: 0.00000000 BTC
Final Balance: 0.00000000 BTC
But that is okay, because there are results, which means that the ID is a valid number and has been entered on the blockchain system. If it was not a valid ID then there would be no results, instead there would be just a message that says there was an error in the search.
'Total Received' is not the money you sent the Miner.
The 'Total Received' is the amount of bitcoin that the Miner has mined up to this point (which is zero so far).
Once he does start to add bitcoin to the amount mined, then it will show on that 'Total Received' line and this will increase till the correct amount is there (as he mines it), and also the 'Final Balance' will show the same amount.
Once full amount has been mined then it gets sent to the vendor.
At that point with a successful transaction, the 'Final Balance' will change from that full amount and again be shown as zero (because it was sent to vendor).
Those Miners usually do not respond to emails (they may eventually), but thru that Blockchain Explorer you can somewhat track what is currently happening.
