Title: Reformatted, deepbit auto withdrawls into wallet i just formatted over?
Post by: Snowblind on June 14, 2011, 08:09:18 AM
I did have wallet.dat backed up, but prior to this transaction (about two week old backup file).  Bitcoin is showing all transactions up to the time the file was backed up.  If i just keep waiting will these coins show up?  The address the coins were sent to is on my receiving addresses list.

It should, yes.

If you're using a version of your wallet.dat that contains the address you use for deepbit payments, let it catch up and all will be well.

So I let it run for about an hour and it has added transactions up to the 2nd of June, the balance also reflecting that amount.  I had since withdrew these coins.  When it is all caught up there should be 10 BTC in there, right now it reads that i have 21 BTC.  I assume once it catches up to the point where i withdrew this that will go away, but what would happen if i try and sent 10 BTC to mtgox before it catches up to the 10 I should actually have.

Your transaction would be rejected by the network as a double-spend.
