Title: 77% BTC lost during transaction - what went wrong?
Post by: TGM7775 on June 05, 2017, 09:30:36 PM
Yesterday, I transfered BTC from an online marketplace directly to a Bitstamp. Or at least tried to. Everything was done correctly, everything was supposed to be made with one single transactionn - but only 23% of the BTC arrived in three tranches.

I checked blockchain.info. You can see the three tranches, but not the rest. I could not find anything else associated to my adress under "double spent".

Now this is the worst time to lose BTC and just say "f*** it". Can somebody tell me what the hell I can do to find out what went wrong?

Can you share the transaction id with us if possible? Maybe, the online marketplace from where you have sent the money to BitStamp used higher fee? What was the amount you sent. A transaction can help. Is their any hidden fee of your online market? Have you tried contacting their support?

The marketplace might not be assigning you a unique address.   The 77% is probably not part of the logical transfer, intended for someone else or simply a change address they own.

But yes, please post a txid so there is some more context.

Hello,

All Transactions for this Adress: https://blockchain.info/address/34Xo7xq4nWu2ECC4FVVF2JCZRUXiQVFVEH

The amount sent was 1,39BTC. 0,33170466BTC are listed, 1,05829534 BTC disappeared. That's currently over 3,000 $ , holy sh***.    :(

I've been trading with BTC since 2013, this never happened before, I'm baffled.

Was this online marketplace a dark web market by any chance?

If yes, this seems to be the standard procedure. Dark web markets will take a long time to process your withdrawals and when they do they do so in chunks so that you get maximum privacy. As long as this market you're using is legit, just contact their support and they'll sort it out for you.

It's not related to double spending at all. The transactions themselves are fine with plenty of fees in it. How long does it say withdrawals will take total in the fine print?

As aTriz said, the transactions look fine, nothing abnormal   If you are expecting more, either it hasn't been sent yet or never got sent.   Follow up at the source.

It's a reliable website. At least it used to be.  ;D
Seems like the only chance I've got is contacting the administrator. Thank you for your help.

15ASgk2UjsnA9F6tCppsj5TgnhHAGBRyWE
Is totally normal you have sent 0.02343478 with this fee 0.00136988.

Second transaction:

You sent 0.248689 with this fee 0.001311.

Third transaction:

c4c2f788daad55252560ea7ffb04420591c43e06e333f427063220fff8da8243
Address:
Code:
1DaTZfAYcUUbSvBX1JhvKHYswpdedECPzA
0.05556784 With this fee 0.00133216.

I am confused, All of the transaction is also listed in your listed address and also they are coming from single addresses  ???
And all the transactions are from different address not from the one you listed.
All the transaction are normal nothing we can see abnormal about it.
Have you contacted the marketplace owner? I have tripple checked your transaction on blocktrail, blokchain, blockr.io but everything is fine.
Something is wrong with your marketplace you may have sent the wrong amount or the market played with you.

Let me know the name of the market place you got these. If it is from dark web, even well known legit sites were prone to hacking for a few days. Evolution marketplace, Dreammarketplace and the latest one Alphabay market place. Also the Shield dark web mixer is not what it used to be and a lot of complaints against them too.

Transactions are ok so if you don't say the source I am afraid no one can really help you.

You really should not be transferring directly from a dark market. Bitstamp is the most uptight exchange out there. If they track your coins from there, which is very possible, expect to be shut down.

Can you tell us the site name? At least it will warn others to stop using it until your issue is resolved even though it is minor compared to all the other trasnactions that goes on in dark web markets :-\

Indeed. Coinbase does this as well but Bitstamp is very strict on their AML and KYC rules. Especially if you have your ID verified it will basicalyl mean that you can't trade on their website if they ever findo ut that you are using a dark web market to fund your account.

You didn't know bitcoin is not anonymous and you didn't know about bitcoin mixers. You should exchange bitcoins to Monero and vice versa on other exchange and mix coins. It's safest method of cleaning transaction history, but also dangerous to morality. Now you probably lost coins and stop selling drugs, drug dealer.
