Title: unexpected payment
Post by: theta on July 27, 2017, 08:57:48 PM
I sent some BTC from an online wallet (from coinbase) to an offline one in a new address. A few hours after it arrived there was another payment from a different address of 0.00001 BTC. Given that the amount is tiny, and also that it's extremely unlikely someone would send money by accident in a random address I was trying to see if there is a connection to the first payment (as the transaction fees were high I thought that maybe it was a partial refund of the transaction fees) but I can't see any connection. Is this common?

Me too :) ... however it's probably in error and may go away

It won't go away as it has hundreds of confirmations, but the amount is so tiny that is not really worth celebrating ☺️
