I own this address:

1MR6pXDZ6gpBVN8n61SqCNF61vU8ZzRu8Y

If you look it up in the blockchain, you can see that currently it contains 44,914.031337 BTC

When I try to restore the wallet containing this address in bitcoind on ubuntu, it tells me the balance is zero. Here are some outputs:

Code:

$ bitcoind getinfo
{
"version" : 60300,
"protocolversion" : 60001,
"walletversion" : 60000,
"balance" : 0.00000000,
"blocks" : 194708,
"connections" : 6,
"proxy" : "127.0.0.1:9050",
"difficulty" : 2190865.97010286,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1336772999,
"keypoolsize" : 101,
"paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
"errors" : ""
}

Code:

$ bitcoind validateaddress 1MR6pXDZ6gpBVN8n61SqCNF61vU8ZzRu8Y
{
"isvalid" : true,
"address" : "1MR6pXDZ6gpBVN8n61SqCNF61vU8ZzRu8Y",
"ismine" : true,
"pubkey" : "02701400207b34aa2b8579625e6a9a3bfd6dc6e55cbe000dc693f46615a18d13a4",
"iscompressed" : true,
"account" : ""
}

As you can see, the address is present in the wallet, and the blockchain is up to date, yet the balance reads zero. If anyone with the correct privileges feels it is appropriate, I would very much appreciate a repost of this in the main tech support section. 100 btc to anyone who can help me solve this problem. Thanks!

Thats Ross Ulbrichts Account. Pretty impressive.
