Title: Previous Transaction unspendable
Post by: Collider on August 09, 2016, 03:11:51 PM
Hi everyone,

I have a problem accessing some of my bitcoin, which were supposed to be transferred into the "new" blochain.info wallet.

If I try to spend it from the adress menu, I get the previous transaction unspendable error, I already checked and there was a suspected double spend of some small amount of mined coins way back, but why did it suddenly stop working?

Does anyone have any suggestions for solving this?

Is there some way to reindex the old transactions?

What is the txid of that double spend? Is it confirmed? Are the transactions following that confirmed?

Otherwise, there isn't much that people can do here. Contact blockchain.info's support.

That block was orphaned, so any transactions coming from that coinbase (generation) transaction is invalid.

As knight said, that block was orphaned, so you would have to contact blockchain.info support if you were trying to transfer from the old blockchain.info wallet to the new one.

Yeah, I figured.

It just seems strange that it worked fine until at least April and now I am no longer able to send any of those btc, nevermind the small amount that were in that block.

Thanks for your help guys!
