Title: Strange behaviour Post by: nicknoxx on February 19, 2016, 04:12:01 PM So, I had 0.36293055 BTC in my wallet and I send 0.36195188 BTC to Shapeshift to trade them to ETH. The Eth arrived and I got a receipt from Shapeshift with all the correct details but my wallet shows 0.36293055 has left leaving a balance of zero.
Can anyone explain what might have happened? Edited to remove extra .

Looks like the transaction fee was the remainder of your balance. Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: nicknoxx on February 19, 2016, 05:42:11 PM Thanks for your reply. It just seems very odd that the transaction fee was exactly 0.00097867
Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: xhomerx10 on February 19, 2016, 05:54:48 PM Do you have the transaction id? We can easily verify the fees.
Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: nicknoxx on February 19, 2016, 06:55:38 PM outgoing txid: 0xf7bd8d3a502b889a2ffc7e3524439d6af3292cb9f45b977fa27e4d52d8dd3106
Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: xhomerx10 on February 19, 2016, 09:57:32 PM No, not the ethereum txid, the Bitcoin txid from the sending of the coins to Shapeshift.io

1QL9oCzo9WTM7ncZ9GHT1isatqKJHTox1A Again, thanks for your help. Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: xhomerx10 on February 20, 2016, 04:26:31 AM You didn't have the exact amount of the transaction in your wallet so you had to send more which coincidentally ended up being everything from that address and you received change of 0.000101 back to 1AkGK5CZMNfE2N7SNYMdVgtNr2eXeXNXyS. You should see it in the "change" section of your wallet.
It's not strange. That's how bitcoin works, the wallet tries to add up inputs that are as close as possible to the value of the transaction and you get the change back to a new address (unless you use manual settings). It's very similar to using fiat. Let's say you bought something that cost $4 but you only had a fiver in your wallet. You would hand the fiver to the cashier at which point your wallet contains $0 until the cashier would give you back your $1 change. Maybe I have misunderstood your concern? Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: nicknoxx on February 20, 2016, 11:07:18 AM That's what I'd expect but there's no change and my total balance is zero.
Here's a screen shot before the transaction finalized showing the problem. http://www.zen202900.zen.co.uk/Coin/shapeshift.png Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: xhomerx10 on February 22, 2016, 03:32:29 AM It seems like there should be a change address 1AkGK5CZMNfE2N7SNYMdVgtNr2eXeXNXyS in that electrum wallet of yours. I'm not familiar with electrum though so I wont be of much help. Is there a setting to show all addresses?
Title: Re: Strange behaviour Post by: nicknoxx on February 22, 2016, 08:45:56 PM It is possible to see all addresses; every single one under 'Receiving' and 'Change' starts with a 3
Edit I think I've found it. There was a fee of 0.004 BTC to return my 0.001 BTC so I must owe somebody 0.003 BTC |
