Title: Bitcoins sent back to sender address and are now gone?
Post by: angelamerkel on October 22, 2013, 08:28:56 PM
Hi,

damn. I think i just lost 4 BTC.   I thought i own this address

***

Yesterday I sent 10BTC  from this address to **.

Today i just cashed out 3.935 BTC to this address  but it doesn't appear in my wallet!  

Wallet is synchronized but the balance is still unchanged.

Is there any way to retrieve the 3.935 BTCs?   Dont really get what I did wrong? Thx for help.


I use the normal BTC QT client 0.85

I have 4 receiving address listed under Tab Receive

***

There are many services that return funds only to the sender's address.


All resolved.... Now it's in my wallet!  Strange. Normally it takes only seconds....

Which wallet are you using?

  • Armory
  • Bitcoin-Qt
  • Electrum
  • MultiBit
  • blockchain.info/wallet
  • something else?

Is the address 1CuHRnYyV6eyrfQbLFmKsPaYhsviBsdKqf in your list of receiving addresses in your wallet?

Transaction is unconfirmed, wait for it to update before you freak out  8)


If you sent 10 coin out, and then deposited 3.95 coin, its your wallet, the balance should update.
