Title: Bitcoin wallet
Post by: Artisanal Miner on July 16, 2018, 11:18:36 AM
Currently, I have 10 Bitcoin in my bitcoin wallet which I have downloaded from news.bitcoin.com, anyone has an idea about how to make the transaction from it? because whenever I use bitcoin to make a transaction it only let me send my 10 BTC back to my wallet? still can't figure out how to spend those 10 bitcoins? anyone have an idea or used the same wallet before too?

First of all, be careful,. never tell how much money you have online, if you have a large amount of money like you have .

Second, don't store all that money in a webwallet.

Third, are you sure you have 10 bitcoin? It's like 65000 dollars

Get your mnemonic phrase and immediately restore your funds in a safer wallet, such as Electrum.

Download it on your desktop

Just a quick correction respond: I've tried to access wallet.bitcoin.com and it seems it wasn't a webwallet, but a wallet app such as Mycelium (in Android), Electrum and etc. It needs to be download (or does this still considered to be a webwallet?). I don't know which wallet that was mentioned by OP though.

For OP, which wallet that you use?

I doubt that you have 73,000$ worth of bitcoins. If you did, you wouldn't be asking this question. Anyone with that kind of money to invest would do their due diligence way before putting in their money blindly.
Anyways.

The wallet from News.Bitcoin is not a webwallet its a classic Bitcoin wallet with Bitcoin Cash support.

When you say this : " whenever I use bitcoin to make a transaction it only let me send my 10 BTC back to my wallet"
Could you make sure your grammar is better because I didn't get what you meant here.

Did you enable multisig?

Be more descriptive about the problem and maybe we can help you, other wise its simply putting in the address and hitting the send button.

Many people were suggesting many things what you can do,but you can simply send all your bitcoins to a wallet which is more secure that the current one,I suggest you to go with electrum for now,you can simple enter the wallet address of your new wallet into the send tab in your old wallet then it will be transferred and the fee will be deducted,but it is not that much expensive.

Is there any good bitcoin app wallets you guys can recommend?
You should start here: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

It has a list of well known and relatively trusted wallets for a number of OSes and use cases.

Well thank you for providing this link,which helps me to know what are the bitcoin wallets available,because normally I uses web wallet and the electrum for storing the long storage,but now only I am aware that there are lot of other wallets are also available. :)

IF i'm not mistaking, bitcoin.com is pushing bitcoin cash (BCH), so the OP might unknowingly have purchased BCH instead of BTC.

By recommanding the OP to download electrum, he can get himself into a lot of troubles! He might end up having to export private keys from electrum and import them into a bitcoin cash wallet in order to regain access to his funds.

It's also a lot more plausible the OP has 10 BCH in his wallet opposed to 10 BTC.
10 BCH = ~$8.600
10 BTC = ~$82.000

@OP: can you verify if you have BCH or BTC in your wallet?

I think they (Bitcoin.com) have removed their misleading marketing... but I wouldn't know since I don't use them.

And just so OP can confirm it, just look up your wallet address on a Bitcoin (BTC) block explorer. Blockchain.com/explorer or Blockchair.com are good. Just enter your address. It'll show you your balance... if it's Bitcoin. Otherwise, you've been duped, like countless others before you. Let's hope we're all wrong!
