Hi, I had no drive space on my computer because of sync so I copied the Bitcoin folder from appdata to another drive. I finished the resync successfully .
Problem is I had 0.98 bitcoins now showing 0.51 :) in my wallet.

any ideas appreciated :)

Thanks Alot

Are you sure that you didn't copy the wrong wallet.dat or something?

If you are sure it's the same wallet, was it synced before you ran out of space? Maybe you spent 0.47 BTC and you didn't sync it? These are the only two possible explainations to be honest.

I actually mined the bitcoins probably 2 years ago, never used the app . so last week installed an updated version of Bitcoin core and it started re-sync , told me I had no space left so I stopped the process, Went to appdata folder and copied the Bitcoin folder to an external drive. started the app, asked me to show the bitcoin data folder, selected the one in external drive, synced it for a day.

I came in front of it and it was showing me 0.51 :)

I have never spent a bitcoin before :)

One other option : I had 0.51 bitcoin and I had this crazy idea that I had 0.98 coins. Feels like I'm 100 percent sure but people sometimes make themselves believe unreal stuff over time.

If someone says, it is not possible losing coins during sync, I'll probably accept I'm tripping.

Thanks a lot for help

Why not print out the transaction register or export it to Excel, and check if at some moment in time you had 0.98 bitcoin. Then after that, there would have to be transactions that reduced it to 0.51.

Another method, you say you mined the coins, was it with a group like Slush? Logon and download from then an activity history.

Thanks for reply , everything got solved with your suggestion. I'm tripping.

After 3 years, I found the pool name I was using, logged in to the pool account and got my answer.

still missing some but not a big deal, showing 0.51 in the wallet :)

Sorry for wasting time . Have a great day guys , thanks for all replies

it's like a app, here some kind of different drive, men can easily have help.If they can in there they sing their account and got help..

Are you serious .001 btc means 7usd.
This cannot be just lost to some where.
Are you sure you have not any other transation after that?

glad to see you figured it out, good luck
