Title: Address no BTC on Block chain explorer but I can not see it in wallet? Post by: jubalix on December 27, 2021, 02:12:16 AM EDIT Figured it out
Ok so what happened is I *sent* the transaction, at least the electrum walled show it as sent, but it was never actually sent / broadcast on chain. I am not sure how the electrum wallet thinks this transaction has happened. I probally have to reload the headers or something. To get the right wallet I restored a wallet from the *zpub....* again. ----------- So I have an address in my BTC electrum wallet (watching) and it shows I have some BTC on it. However the I cannot see this btc on any blockchain explorer on that address. There are no incomeing or outgoing transactions on the blockchain explorer on that address. I can see all the other addresses in my wallter have that have BTC have the corresponding amounts on various blockchain explorers and are correct in all respects. I have found he outstanding amount ON a different change address in my wallet. that For some reason the Electrum wallet has confused itself as what address the coins are on. The BTC in the electrm wallet show the BTC is on the change adress one bellow where it actualy is. When I make a transaction to sign, it is using the wrong address. Thanks in advance. What has happened here? Title: Re: Address no BTC on Block chain explorer but I can see it in wallet? Post by: IIrik11 on December 27, 2021, 05:10:53 AM if u have solved it yourself.

I have sort of solved the issue, But it does not explain why the wallet showed up as the transaction going through when it never got onto the blockchain. So I will leave it open for that reason Title: Re: Address no BTC on Block chain explorer but I can see it in wallet?

Usually issues like this happen because you have created and stored the transaction locally instead of broadcasting it to the network. In that case your wallet knows the updated situation (coins moved from one address to another) and when you want to spend coins it will spend them from their new address but the rest of the world doesn't know it since you haven't broadcast the first tx.If you go to your history tab the transaction has to have a different icon on the left side indicating it is local.

Either way, it will be saved as a 'local transaction', indicated by the 'blue computer' icon instead of the 'check', 'pie' or 'clock' icon.
