I think that's how it works...

Anyway! About a week ago i was messing around with this website, and landed DAH BIG ONE! I was expecting to loose everything, but then this happened! At first i couldn't believe my eyes, but when I confirmed the win i jumped for joy! Hope you guys enjoy the photo, and wish y'all the same luck i had the other day!

My wallet is claiming that my transactions went through, after two days of just letting it sit and performing the suggested actions of user Thirdspace.

Confirming COMPLETE

Topic Tx: Requested amount has been received to my ledger with 31 confirmations, and is proudly being displayed on the chrome ledger wallet app.
Wallet 1PEZ: Requested amount has been received with 31 confirmations.

I would like to thank you again user Thirdspace for your assistance. I'll make sure to +1 your rep, and if you'd like I want to tip you for your assistance.

Thank you for the information!


Yes, I ran -zapwallettxes=1, and -rescan, but i ran them separately and online. For example... I did -zap after it finished closed the program, edited the conf file to say -rescan and ran the program again. After it finished the -rescan I closed the program and edited the conf back to being blank then ran the program back up. I can give it a try offline to see if that does anything, but are you suggesting that i use both of them on the same line of text or would I put them on separate lines of text in the conf file? Also... for inputting i would do this offline or online, and are these two commands on separate lines of text or one line? What website do you recommend for brodcasting hex rawtxs? Lastly, by generating the tx offline would i get a new tx ID, and rawtx?


I think I'd rather attempt to send both my payments under a single transaction because i no longer need the 0.0048 going to the 1PEZ wallet in tx 20da23. Though from what i understand about transactions... I cannot redistribute these fund since i already "sent" them so that wallet 1PEZ receives them, and i cannot add it to my topics tx to move it to my ledger if I am able to "recover" the funds. Would i be correct?

I guess the ( in regards to the topic tx, because I am aware that i used a dreadfully low tx fee for the 0.0048 ) 0.00209585 BTC/kB recommended fee was not significant enough even though it costed around 75k satoshies. What fee would you recommend for this transaction?

I apologize for the multitude of questions, but I'm just trying to get an understanding on this subject so i can better myself ( and my transactions ) in the future!

Thanks again!  

For the tx ID described in this topic, how can those two addresses have the BTC i owned in my 1H5h wallet to equal out the transaction i sent? When i sent the BTC during tx 20da23d639 I only authorized the 0.0048, and somehow that additional transaction I didn't authorize ( the 0.01 that when to 1FiN ) was tacked onto it. This was my first attempt at sending a tx, and chose the bare minimum fee as you may have saw. At the time i didn't mind the wait, but after a while of not getting it confirmed i essentially gave up on that tx ever coonfirming. That, i guess, was the first start of my wallet not correctly showing my balance.  Similar story for when I authorized a similar in size transaction (f944) i only intended to send the 0.0038, but then that 0.01 was sent to the 1Ha2fx "wallet" by being tacked onto this tx just like the first one. The only difference is that this tx was able to be confirmed. How did these two wallets ( 1FiN & 1Ha2 ) become into existence, and "secretly" have BTC sent to them without being shown in my tx log in my BTC Core wallet app? How can i prevent this from happening again?

Even if these two wallets are "working together" to get my topics tx come true... Would I just have to wait until it confirms, or would i have to somehow get a CPFP'd/double spend to make sure they go through?

Finally... when i run -zapwallettxes it does clear the unconfirmed txs and restores my wallet balance, but once i remove the command from the conf file and the wallet re-syncs the txs are immediately replaced and my balance goes to zero again. Suggestions?

Thanks Thirdspace for your research, and anyone else that helps me out in this matter.

Well after running -zap i removed and saved the conf file to make sure dont zap it again. After the application booted up the transactions that were removed came back, and my balance is at back to where it was earlier. They were sent on their own (probably by the application), and now my moment of feeling like i saved myself has ended. Will update original posts with any new tx IDs that may have changed.

After some google searching i figured out how to do this, and i ran -zap and the bogus transactions that have been in my wallet are gone and all the respective satoshis are back as well!! Now.. what to do about that 0.01 btc that was sent to that weird address...

Ooh! TIL   


I'll do this and update you with results.


Yeah if they had access they would of had a nice haul from me, and my wallet would have displayed empty when it resynced. I've never exported the private key from this wallet to another, and we cannot rule out the possibility that this tx may have been made from another wallet with this address.

Thanks for your reply, and I'll see what i can do with this information!

Doing some research on my own i found on https://blockchain.info/address/1Ha2fXwmpQn84kwYc4oqsjXj8irdEHiWRD that 0.01 BTC was sent to a wallet, from my wallet, that I've never seen or own. This may be contributing to why my current tx is not clearing since this transaction would leave me having a balance insufficient to fund the recent transaction I'm currently attempting.

This transaction does not appear in my BTC Core wallet either, and the last transaction my wallet displays was one that I've personally sent and confirmed.

So does this mean my wallet has been compromised?

Edit: At the time prior to me making my this transaction I had sufficient balance to make it, and my wallet was updated/synced before i sent the transaction.

I'm aware of that... Do you have any tips or suggestions?

Others I've asked so far said to just "wait it out" by letting the mempool forget it.

Recently joined, and I'm currently enjoying the "Mines" game! Waiting for some txs to go through before i make a real attempt!

Do you have any other games planned for future implementation?

Description of Problem: I sent a transaction from my Bitcoin Core wallet to my Ledger Nano S, and with the recommended fee of 0.00209585 BTC/kB is still unconfirmed along with the transaction ID not being displayed on blockchain explorers.

I recently got my ledger nano S, and after i went through the set up process i decided to send what i had in my BTC Core desktop wallet to it. when the ledger nano S told me to pick a block chain i chose Legacy, because I was unsure if Core added SegWit. I made sure the receiving address was correct before i clicked send, and I chose the recommended fee option that the application provides. My transaction did not appear on the Ledger Nano S chrome app at the time of sending, as well as of yet. Now it's stuck in "unconfirmed hell", and i'm sweatin' a bit. Block chain explorers say my Tx ID cannot be found as well. Do i wait for more blocks to be mined, or have i sent what i owned to a "Burn" address accidentally? The balance of my wallet has already been deducted so i cannot make a fee adjustment to the transaction. I attempted the same thing with my LTC core wallet after installing the ledger LTC wallet onto the nano. No problems, and was confirmed within minutes with the recommended fee option. The transaction appeared immediately even though it was not confirmed yet. I understand that LTC works differently than BTC, but i believe that i should have experienced roughly the same outcome with BTC.

Edit(s): Currently at a loss of what to do next... Guess I'll keep rescan-ing my wallet   ( 18:47, 1/15/2018 )
(1/16/2018) Strange thing is... When i sent some BTC that i purchased from an exchang to my Ledger it was confirmed, and properly stored into it like a normal transaction and the fee for the transaction was in total 0.0005 BTC. So it confused me on how this one went through but not the other, even with a lower amount payed in tx fee.   Either way... Time to do more research and try some stuff!
(1/20/2018) After performing some of the suggested actions brought up by user Thirdspace, and letting my wallet sync for a couple of days i can proudly announce that my transactions have been confirmed! 


Thank you for your time,

Thanks for the info~

 

checked it out and this site has a nice selection of videos... Thanks for shedding light upon it.

 

I'd put 25 into doge, and the remainder into LTC.

Doge for the novelty of having "Meme money", and LTC since its the Space's equivalent to silver. The price of gold is too damn high!

Quick question... is a signed message required for each tx, Or can a single signature be valid for example 2 weeks?

Thanks. Now to click capcha tests for pennies to earn BTC since Coinbase doesnt like me ;<

This is my trial run for signed messages with my Bitcoin Core 0.15.1 wallet:


Looking forward to your critiques!

Newborn in the space lookin' for some information...

I'm hesitant to buy BTC since my residency is always changing. I'm originally from the USA, but work currently has me place in Germany. My plan is to purchase a decent fraction of BTC here in Germany to get me started, and then when I move to my next location by next summer really start my investments. Will fiat to crypto exchanges such as Coinbase or Kraken accept me despite the fact I'm not a permanent resident in Germany? Will the currencies i purchase be able to move with me? Is it possible to take currencies from exhanges to cold storage directly, or would i have to use a desktop wallet, such as Exodus, as a "Middle Man" to store them?

Thank you for your time!
