What you should not do is allow the money to be transferred out while confirmation are less than 3 or 5 or whatever. It depends what you service does? If you converting to fiat currency you want more confirmations. If you running a poker game it does not matter as your engine can backtrack any invalid transactions and you just disallow out transfers if an account has not fully matured the transactions. This will prevent hit and run fraud but allow legit users to experience fast deposits. | |
