Title: Bitcoin core watch only address "disappear" and "reappear" on restart Post by: zoltanb on January 12, 2021, 09:02:25 PM I have a pruned bitcoin core wallet.
I have imported a watch-only address and when I run: bitcoin-cli listunspent 0 9999999 [\"***address***\"] I see the UTXO. [ { "txid": "***", "vout": 0, "address": "***address***", "label": "mine", "scriptPubKey": "***", "amount": 0.01, "confirmations": 0, "spendable": false, "solvable": false, "safe": true } ] However, after a while, the same command does not return anything, it shows an empty response, however, the UTXO still exists. [ ] I was not sure what is wrong so I restarted the bitcoind. To my surprise, the above command (bitcoin-cli listunspent 0 9999999 [\"***address***\"]) returns the UTXO transaction again. However, after a while it just disappears again but it reappears after I restart the daemon. What can be wrong here?

What commands did you use?

Perhaps your node is dropping the unconfirmed transaction out of it's mempool due to the fact that there are some 125meg+ worth of unconfirmed transactions at the moment.

You might be right here, so probably as soon as the transaction is confirmed it will stay there. Basically, I grouped about 30 inputs to 1 watch only output, used 1.5 sat per byte.

Basically, I grouped about 30 inputs to 1 watch only output, used 1.5 sat per byte. As another user pointed out in another thread... the "mempoolminfee" got bumped up over 2+ sats/byte on several occasions this last week: https://statoshi.info/dashboard/db/memory-pool?from=1609918343354&to=1610523143354 |
