Title: I made my self double-spend :-( please help :(
Post by: LordHelma on November 19, 2013, 02:14:35 PM
Hi guys,

first sorry for my bad English. I will try to explain what happened to me.

First of all:
I have two wallets
First 1 is 1GzgAHxdVuqtmcKXU57Rmiy525wAgYgoXy (https://blockchain.info/address/1GzgAHxdVuqtmcKXU57Rmiy525wAgYgoXy)
Second is 18uPPfhNrvum7RqCBVBZSu8xG5K34Rfdmz (https://blockchain.info/address/18uPPfhNrvum7RqCBVBZSu8xG5K34Rfdmz)

And now whats actually happened..

17.11. : I had few BTC's in wallet num. 2. I wanted to sent them to coinground.com exchange... but i didn't know that my wallet has fee set to 0. There i created bad no-fee transaction. Anyway i made a decision that i will wait.

18.11. :Transaction still had no confirmations. I decided to do something so i tried to search some information's about re-sending transactions. But finally i did nothing that day.

19.11. : Today i fucked up everything. I sent rest of my money 2BTC to my wallet num. 1 but with the same mistake as in the first case. Now i had two no-fee transactions and almost nothing in wallet. So i tried to use my wallet backup to recover older state and sent money again --> the biggest fail because my older transactions disappeared, but new one "double spend" is in my first wallet https://blockchain.info/tx/875b7363f53cf32ddffb0a8d931a6b903f0fcd314dfbc1f5e96fe44db5b50e28


Please tell me that i'm not complete **** :-(( This would be the second time in this month when i lost my money - first one was with our bitcash.cz - also about 4 BTC). :((((

Now you have to wait until one of these txs confirms.
Nodes gradually forget about txs, so your double-spend may succeed soon.

Those coins are yours until one of those transactions appears in a block. Your client assumes that this will be the case and deducts the balance, but the coins still belong to you.

It appears that you succeeded in sending most of your balance to:
