Title: STOLEN BITCOINS - Armory created additional address Post by: ask on April 30, 2013, 09:03:39 PM Hi
Today I wanted to send 1 bitcoin from my Armory account to online Blockchain account. Transaction was signed, but unfortunatelly I found that additional 9 BTS were sent to unknown address. Does someone know what were wrong? Title: Re: STOLEN BITCOINS - Armory created additional address Post by: Prefinem on April 30, 2013, 09:05:31 PM 9 Satoshis? or 9 BTC?
If it was Satoshis, probably a transaction fee. Title: Re: STOLEN BITCOINS - Armory created additional address Post by: roflplatypus on April 30, 2013, 09:06:31 PM that sounds like your change address - once the output was made, the wallet generates a new address to send the extra coins to.

(Eg. you had 10 BTC in your Armory, you sent 1 BTC to some addres, then those (remaining) 9 BTC were returned as "change = small coins" to you.) Those new addres with 9 BTC should be under your control. What does Armory balance say to you? If it is 9 BTC then you are ok. If you are unsure, post that "new" BTC addres here and we can check the transaction in blockchain. |
