- To check the current status of the transaction the receiver can go in the Transaction tab. We will need at least to wait 2 min to see it as confirmed.
- Once the transaction is confirmed and sent, the recipient needs to wait for enough confirmations to spend the fund received recently.(set to 10 blocks by default)
- Once 10 confirmations (10 minutes) are reached, the recipient received his fund and can spend it directly after.
