Hello Everyone I need your help...

So..basically I had a paper wallet with 40 vertcoins and I decided to redeem them today. Well the only way I knew how to redeem a paper wallet was to use my actual desktop vertcoin wallet which I almost never use. So i go through the motions and I import the private key and now it shows in my wallet as redeemed...except I don't have 40 vertcoins?

So I checked the vertcoin explorer and looked up the address to make sure there should be 40 there - VooBcKyaC1QMSNBoe8HeiKqJGs6rNjEqD1

Yes it shows that this address has 40 vertcoins, so I start thinking wtf is going on? And then it hit me, I still have the original vertcoin wallet from like january, I never updated it when everyone was saying must update wallet. Is this the issue?

If the coins were sent recently, yes. With that old wallet you're on an entirely different blockchain which does not contain the transaction to that address, so just update the wallet. Might have to clean out the old blockchain and resync too (delete everything EXCEPT wallet.dat in %APPDATA%/Vertocoin assuming you're on windows)
