Actually, I was expecting that it would sync much faster because this is a dedicated server and also that bitcoin would output indication of progress or something like that.. Now it's clear, thanks!

If you check the debug.log it will output the sync progress as it goes.

# Why a transaction couldn't be found with bitcoin-cli after 11 confirmations?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-03-13)

I made a new address with `bitcoin-cli getnewaddress`:

```
39WqU8NJJasFjmaS2J4424UGVJn8Tqvh82

```

Then I initiated a transfer from some online service.
The transaction is displayed with 11 confirmations:
<https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/cc09117205515389ed618acd31b6e691e363446c5ce5cce94b24cc74701fbd74>

Now, I am trying to verify this with bitcoin-cli:

```

```

What should I do in order to verify locally success of the transaction?

Why balance didn't increase?

The node is configured with `prune=4096`.

Your node is not fully synced, when you posted this it was only synced up to block 481192 (look at `blocks` under `getinfo`).

Once the node catches up to the chain tip the tx should display properly.
