Title: Please Help - Unconfirmed Transaction Sent 22 Feb Sill Lost
Post by: minetrend on March 03, 2014, 05:22:43 PM
Hi Guys,

I sent BTC to bitcoin builder from my Blockchain.info wallet on 22 Feb 2014. The transaction never went through, its still unconfirmed and Blockchain.info cant help or even offer any ideas as to what has happened to it.
A small amount of this BTC was from Gox just before they halted withdrawals altogether and it showed in my Blockchain wallet as confirmed. The only thing I can think of from around this time was one of those sochi spam payments but thats no longer visible from the wallet.

Transaction ID:

Code:
019f7af813cf117fc39d2d65c81194b53d5754336928f2a3e9fccaa670e292c2

Anybody got any suggestions for what I can do? Its not a massive amount of BTC but I would happily give 10% to anybody that can help me work this out.

I'd help, but I'm having wallet issues at the moment that I have to deal with.  If you haven't gotten any useful help by this weekend, bump this thread and I'll take a look.

The transaction you are searching for doesn't exist. For some reason Blockchain.info lately has some problems with sending transactions - it appears on their interface that it was sent, but if you try to look it up by yourself, it turns out it doesn't exist on Bitcoin network.

Few examples:
http://blockexplorer.com/tx/019f7af813cf117fc39d2d65c81194b53d5754336928f2a3e9fccaa670e292c2
http://blockr.io/tx/info/019f7af813cf117fc39d2d65c81194b53d5754336928f2a3e9fccaa670e292c2

What you can do is to go into Import / Export section of your wallet, export your private key, and import it somewhere else. Then you can spend the funds from that wallet.

I have the same.
I've sent 1.16 BTC to an exchange and it went back (!) after 2 days !

Today I've tried to rent a rig on betarigs, bu it didn't go through because my transaction wasn't visible on the block explorer they're using ( and on any other also).

I've submitted a ticket to their support system.

Is this the transaction you are having trouble with?

This transaction looks fine, it is smaller than 1k, it has a fee, not sure why it is holding up since feb22

No, it won't be fine, please look at my post and the links I provided. This transaction doesn't exist on Bitcoin network, only in Blockchain.info's internal database. It will never confirm because other nodes know nothing about it.

It actually looks as a huge issue. There are entire transaction chains that depend on this transaction, but as you can see on other block explorers, they don't exist either. I'm hope no one will lose money over that.

What are you on about? It is found on blockr.io, take a look yourself

Edit:
In fact, it just received 1 confirmation

It wasn't the case before. It seems that it needed to be re-transmitted by another Bitcoin client for it to be recognized by the network. Previously both Block Explorer and Blockr.io showed "404" page for it.

As you point out below it now has confirmations but I have been around Bitcoin for a while now and have never ever had a transaction take that long to go through.
I appreciate the help though all of you, both here and on Reddit. Funny how Blockchain only bothered to respond after others chipped in. I have never had a problem with them before but wont be using them anymore simply because of poor support.
