Bitcoin Forum

Hi,

I registered on blockchain and my wallet identifier was sent to me via email with a confirmation link.

I couldnt confirm the wallet/link because i was offline for about 3days.

Later, i purchased bitcoin to that address (without confirming the link/wallet identifier yet via email) and it (bitcoin) was sent via my EMAIL and i receiced email from (coinbase) that i had been sent bitcoin to my blockchain wallet.

For over 7days now,  cant see the btc in my walllet. I have done the necessary confirmation yet the btc isnt reflectinng.

My question is, is it possible to send btc via email to an address/wallet that was not yet confirmed? What should i do that i haven't done?

Please any help suggestion?

From what I have understand from you post

1. You create an online wallet at Blockchain.info (I assume since you say "blockchain")

2. They sent you an email containing your wallet identifier and confirmation link

3. You cannot confirm it because you was offline (explain some more?)

4. You purchase some Bitcoin from CoinBase and then sent it to your newly create Blockchain wallet (which haven't been email-confirmed)

5. You did not the Bitcoin in your balance

Well, then one of the highest possibilities is that you withdraw to the wrong Bitcoin address. As long as it is a valid Bitcoin address, I believe CoinBase will send out. Blockchain.info just act as an wallet. The email confirmation is to confirm your ownership to the account (so they can send you a verification link whenever you want to login as an added security).

Edit: It will be great if you can post your Bitcoin address.

what your address ?
you can check transaction in your wallet success or not ,if success maybe you will lose your coin if you dont have privkey your address

1: YES! Blockchain.info

2: EXACTLY

3: I didnt go online for like 3days because i was exetremely busy.

4: YES! It wasn't emailed confirmed yet. Though the confirmation link had been sent.

5: Bitcoin is not in the wallet till now.

But they sent to the email which i used in creating the blockchain.info account and i got a confirmation email via coinbase in that same email....

Did check whether or not your coins are still with coinbase? If you have not given coinbase your bitcoin address from blockchain.info they wouldnt send them there.

Where did you copy the Receive address from? Were you logged into your Blockchain.info account?

Did you have check your address if have received any coins in the last hours?
Check in block explorer if your address is still empty maybe you don't receive any funds (due the email not confirmed!!)

Considering all posts of OP it seems that OP has posted wrong address in coinbase while purchasing bitcoins. I don’t think any transaction would remain pending for such a long period  (assuming that there is no fault at coinbase’s side while paying appropriate fees).

It would be easier to help if you can post your bitcoin wallet here and if possible coinbase transaction details too.

Don't know why you have the time to create a blockchain.info account but don't have the time to verify, clicking mail should be pretty easy thing and why you withdraw to a incomplete blockchain.info account. Return to the topic, your coin withdraw to blockchain address, so you should contact their support, but be prepare to get nothing just incase.

youre regitre blockchain without confirmtion
your blockchain account is till can open
and you can still receive payment in your addres

if you sending from coinbase use blockchain wallet, so you can open your blokchain, because without open you can't know your addres bitcoin

about receive or not you can check in addres in block exporler transaction is finish confirmation or not

How do i do that please @shorena???

Bitcoin address posted @iqbal26.

Sender sent bitcoin to my (email address) instead of btc wallet as he said it was possible that way. I would love to post pictures/transaction details but u know the limitations on us here as newbies @Dudeperfect

SIMPLE: There was no transaction sent to address 1Nju8MFMoqPNicocaxEdTxy44trXniYosA until now. E.g. whoever is sender he/she either didn't send bitcoins (yet or at all) or sent them to another address.

You do not need confirm anything in email to receive bitcoins to this address. Anyone can send bitcoin there any time. What is question is your ability to spend them.

Where did you copy this address? How you get this addy without confirming mail? Because after confirmation you can login in, in your wallet first time

I can’t see any transaction with the address given by you so there no transaction took place. I think the following possibility,

Email Verification –
I never tried sending bitcoins using email, but since it is interesting I think, you can try this.
How can coinbase have a list of a database of Bitcoin addresses associated with blockchain.info? In this case, they must have sent your bitcoins to your coinbase account (associated with the email you gave while purchasing) itself.

If you are using the different email address on your coinbase account, then create a new one with the email address you gave while buying bitcoins. You might have bitcoins inside your coinbase account when you open an account and verify it.

Depends on the exchange terms but take note that it must be done via "SAME EXCHANGE". In most of the cases, they are must vefiried. e.g Coinbase to Coinbase and not to Coinbase to other party. Like here in our local exchanger, they are allowing email address can be used but of course they must be registered both in that exchange and the transactions must be made within the same exchange.

No way Coinbase will just detect that you have an account with blockchain with only email address as standard basis.

You say bitcoins were sent from coinbase through email payment to your blockchain.info wallet??
Is this even possible because I believe that's were the problem is.

Where did you get this address?? Is this where you sent your coins to?
It doesn't have any transactions. Meaning, it didn't receive or send any bitcoins.

So, you gave the sender your email address instead of a wallet address?

Are you using the same email for your coinbase and blockchain.info accounts? If so, then have you checked your coinbase wallet? See if it was sent there, especially if the sender was using a coinbase wallet to send the funds.

(Looks like it's possible to use an email address instead of a bitcoin address, though I haven't personally tried it out. But you have to remember that it's got to be the email address you used to make that wallet account.)

It's still not possible in OP's case since they are crossing the roads from exchange to exchange which is Coinbase to Blockchain. OP must ask the sender to contact Coinbase and asked some possible solutions.

 
That is only possible if Coinbase to Coinbase transaction like what stated above and obviously it's really like that.

Log into your coinbase account and check your balance.

Its not possible to send bitcoin via e-mail. You can link pictures as newbie.

I just got an email from coinbase this morning that the bitcoin would be returned back to sender if i do not login to claim it in 14days.

MY QUESTION IS:
 -Should i create another account with coinbase using that same email which is already active on blockchain.info?

-Hope this won't cause more complications? Is it possible for one to register on blockchain.info and coinbase with same email address?


@Dudeperfect:i dont have a coinbase account EXCEPT blockchain.info. But when the bitcoin was sent to my email, i was asked to click a link on COINBASE and claim the bitcoin which i didnt do cos i thought that would cause more ploblems since i already used that same email to create a wallet with blockchain.info. Can i have a wallet with coinbase and blockchain.info using the same email?

 @Mancryptos: It was when i confirmed the new link sent the second time to my email that i was able to log in and get that address but before then, bitcoin had already been sent to email address since wallet wasnt confirmed yet.

@Diced90:bitcoin was sent to my email (which i used to open blockchain.info account) since blockchain wallet was NOT YET VERIFIED. I didnt verify blockchain wallet via email and i went ahead to send wallet id to sender. But he sent to email cos wallet wasn't valid. Hope u understand?

@neochiny:yes email instead of nlockchain. I didnt giv sender this address. I got this address after i had verified my wallet cos i hadnt done that prior to purchasing butcoin. I dont have account with coinbase. Do u tink u shud create one? The email that the btc was sent to is already recognized on blockchain.info. Can i still create a coinbase account with that same email? Won't there be complications? And YES sender used coinbase to send the funds.

This is such a mess. You can buy bitcoin via coinbase without email? Did you leave any data with them at all?


I dont know, Im not even sure anymore you actually did buy something or if someone is trying to scam you.


What you are essentially asking is: Is it possible for one to register on facebook and google+ with the same email address?


You can have as many wallets as you want. Coinbase and blockchain.info wallets are just like accounts with a service that happen to help you manager bitcoins. Keep in mind that transfering bitcoin between wallets usually cost fees.


Bitcoins. Are. Not. Send. To. E-Mail. No matter what some service suggests you, its impossible to send bitcoins to email addresses.


If you did not tell anyone besides us your blockchain.info adress you can not expect to have them send bitcoin there. Get your stuff sorted with coinbase and forget about blockchain.info for now.

Yes, Coinbase and blockchain.info are two different wallet provider. Using the same email for both wouldn't affect the other.
Especially since those coins are connected to that particular email. So, you'd need that specific email to create a Coinbase account in order for you to claim those funds.
I think that by clicking that "claim" link, it would direct you on how you'd be able to create an account/create a wallet and finally, have the funds credited to your bitcoin address.
I suggest using that link sent to you, to create an account.

If you want to be absolutely sure, you can contact Coinbase support. They would then be able to tell you exactly how you'd claim those funds.
Tell them that you used your email address to "receive" bitcoins from someone, got a link for claiming it, and what you should do to claim the funds. Make sure to tell them that you do not have a coinbase account associated with that email yet.
