I first bought BTC on 2013. In 2017 I sent 0.5 divided to Binance and other exchanges and been trading there ever since with another 0.5 resting on my Bitcoin Core v14.1 wallet. Today I tried to send the remaining 0.5 BTC to Binance but the transaction never got confirmed: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/118e0e9d0b04d5e334023701db0bfca963770b245d556465b091bf21acaa748c?show_adv=true
So I tried deleting the mempool and then executing bitcoin-qt with the "-zapwallettxes" parameter. Took almost 4 freaking hours to resync and my 0.5 appeared back in my wallet. So I tried resending the BTC to Binance but this time the TxID never even got registered on the blockchain.
So I executed the "-zapwallettxes" parameter yet again but the light went out in the process and now I restarted my Wallet and all transactions from 2013 to today are gone so my balance says I got 1 whole BTC again. WTF is going on!? Please help. What should I do???
