Re: Just purchased tiny fraction BTC for first time; now what?

I used localbitcoins and found a seller w/great FB... they deposited the BTC immediately; it posted by the time I was home from the bank!

Yayyyy!

BUT... now I have a wallet on localbitcoins; I didn't expect that. Somehow I thought that the address I gave was strictly associated with my blockchain wallet and I'd see the post there.

So - now I have the same address in two different "clients" (or places; whatever) and I can see the balance associated with that address in the localbitcoin wallet but not the blockchain wallet...

Why? Does this mean I'm stuck with funds for the same address in two different wallets? I was *just* getting the hang (sorta/kinda) of how to manage the blockchain wallet, and now this localbitcoin wallet appears.

Am I making any sense?

This is exactly the reason I started with a very small amount; in-case something took my by surprise. Wink

You're confused... post your address and the amount, where you "expect" it to be and the address where it "actually" is. I'm unsure how you "gave one address" and its at a different address.
