Title: [Multibit] Transactions not showing on blockchain or reaching their destination Post by: Cypherpunk38 on December 12, 2013, 09:25:52 PM Hello Everyone,
Last Friday, I performed three transactions that sent money from my Multibit wallet to two different bitcoin addresses (one was Cryptsy). For some reason, none of those transactions have reached their destinations or are showing in the blockchain! My wallet is reflecting the transfer (the bitcoin has been deducted) but they are just 'out there' somewhere in the ether. I've resynced five or six times with no joy. Also, the transactions, which were showing in my transaction tab, have now disappeared. I'm using the most recent version of MB. Anyone else experience this? If so, how did you fix it? Thanks!

It says so in the sticky in this forum. Anyway I've seen a lot of people complaining about this recently and the recommendation has always been to do this:

Try electrum instead.

When you do a reset blockchain and transactions (from before the date of your earliest transaction) your wallet will reflect what is on the blockchain. You can check this on blockchain.info. If you had previously made a transaction that was not successful (i.e. it did not make it out into the bitcoin network) then no you won't see it any more (as it is not on the blockchain).

But the OP stated that after doing a blockchain reset several times the transaction(s) do not show up but the BTC has been deducted from the wallet total. Has he basically "lost" the BTC he tried to send or can it be recovered and updated in the wallet to reflect the "pre-transaction" total?

It always gets to the blockchain eventually but sometime can take several minutes or longer. I've also been having a problem with received transactions showing on the blockchain with even two confirmations but not showing up in multibit. And I reset the blockchain and transactions and still doesn't work. Hopefully the new version will fix this because I'm losing faith in multibit lately.

Try that version and, if you are still having problems - post here so that we can see what else needs doing. |
