## sBTC Troubleshooting FAQ

<details>

<summary>My Bitcoin transaction confirmed, but I'm not seeing the sBTC token in my wallet.</summary>

You may need to enable the display of the sBTC token within your wallet by clicking on 'Manage Tokens' and enabling sBTC.

</details>

<details>

<summary>I received an "Errors.Invalid_Transaction" error when using an Xverse Wallet</summary>

If you received a "Errors.Invalid_Transaction" error when using an Xverse Wallet, you may be using a "Nested SegWit" wallet.
To resolve the issue, change your Xverse wallet to use the "Native SegWit".

<details>

<summary>I minted sBTC, tried RBF, but the transaction is still stuck. How do I reclaim my BTC?</summary>

You need to wait `12 Bitcoin blocks` to reclaim your BTC. After this, check the app.stacks.co status page for a `reclaim` button with directions on how to reclaim.

<details>

<summary>sBTC still isn't showing up in wallet after 3 Bitcoin blocks. How much longer do I have to wait?</summary>

BTC to sBTC conversions are typically completed within 3 Bitcoin blocks. Due to the speed of Bitcoin blocks, deposits can take up to two hours to see sBTC in your wallet.

However, there may be a lag with your Leather or Xverse wallet where the sBTC will take another 20 minutes to show up in the wallet.

<summary>I didn't receive a confirmation that I enrolled in the rewards program. How can I ensure I'm enrolled?</summary>

Visit bitcoinismore.org. On the enroll page, when your wallet is linked, it will say enrolled if you are enrolled in the program.
