Title: Missing Bitcoin
Post by: Jackie Robinson on April 27, 2023, 04:01:02 AM

Most of exchange or wallet only require at least 1-20 confirmations to get credited, it's impossible for over 600 confirmations your coins still not credited yet.

I guess you mean about right address instead of right wallet? because if you use non custodial wallet, you can input your seed phrase or private key in any wallet, but it show a same address which you owned.

You need to check the receipt address and the network you used, if you send Bitcoin using BSC network, but you use on chain Bitcoin address, your coins are gone now.

You might want to give us more information so we can actually be able to help you.

* What wallet are you using?
* What device are you using?
* Are you sure you're receiving actual bitcoin? (BTC, not BCH or BSV, etc)

You could double-check that exchange using a blockchain explorer. One such resource is this one: https://blockchain.info/. Your Bitcoin TxID, or the address of your exchange or wallet, can be entered here. A brief synopsis of the transaction, including its confirmation count, will be displayed. I'm hoping this helps clarify your bitcoin transaction. It's also a good idea to double-check the wallet address you're supposed to send money to, just in case.

Make it easier for the people here to help you or at least give you an idea of what might have happened. Perhaps you might want to provide more information about the transaction. Which wallet are you using? Do you have the TXID of the transaction?

I suspect that you actually failed to send the funds properly. If you are sure about the address that you send the funds to, are you sure you are using the right network? You could have chosen the cheaper yet wrong network option.

What type of wallet is the receiving wallet? Is it an online or offline wallet? If it’s offline try getting a duplicate that would serve as your watch only wallet they would be able to see but not able to complete transactions.

If it’s an online wallet then I suggest you check the internet connection of the said wallet, or probably you may be using an obsolete version I would suggest you try updating it as well.

If everything was equal( you made no mistakes in the transactions) then with those amounts of confirmation you should be seeing your funds, the problem is from your end so properly check through.

Your topic title suggests you are receiving bitcoins and not an altcoin.
• Are you receiving to a exchange? If not...
• Which Bitcoin wallet do you use and is it properly synched.

In most cases unconfirmed transactions would show up in your wallet and 0 confirmation is enough to be able to spend it using CFNP. With 1 it's already an unspent output in the wallet.

The txid would be enough for forum users to give you a helping hand.

Likely not sent to the correct address.

If sent to the correct address, likely it is an exchange or custodial wallet address. If it is an exchange or custodial wallet address, contact the customer support and tell them what happened. Always know that if it is not your key it is not your coin.

Or sent to a wallet, and you are not yet seeing it. What is the name of the wallet?

If it has been confirmed over with 600 confirmations then it should be to the wallet where you've sent it. As you've said, it's the right wallet or this could be an exchange wallet? Tell us more about this because we're not fortune tellers to tell if your wallet is from an exchange or a typical desktop/mobile/hardware wallet where it should be. If it's the latter, try to update the wallet and that's probably one reason why the balance is not appearing or displaying.

You'd better put your Bitcoin TxID here.

If it is a web wallet or an exchange it may take some time for your balance to appear even though the transaction has been confirmed.

Web wallets are the most vulnerable type of wallets, but web wallet users have their own private key, which means they have control over their own coins on blockchain, such problem can not be on a web wallet, only on custodial wallets and exchanges.

I think you should share more information with us like you can share your transection id and from where you sent and where to send. It's quite impossible that you haven't received after 600 confirmation and I think you have done any mistake when you sent it. Or you have sent it to an exchange or any custodial wallet then you should share details with the support team , hope they will solve your problem asap.You maybe had sent to a wrong address or in a wrong network if you have sent it to a non custodial wallet. You should recheck your wallet. If everything is okay you can share with us.

You should correct your words wallet is different from the address, if you own the private key of the address where it was sent then you still own that Bitcoin, there's a possibility that you're looking at the wrong wallet, it happened to me before I was checking my Exodus but it turns out the address I've used was from Electrum.
Double-check where that address is located it and should show up, it is fully confirmed.

Without any information you can't get any help from members because you have not provided any information from where something can be retrieved like address where you have sent not the wallet and with over 600 confirmation there's no chance it got approved and balance is usually reflected on your wallet with that address within few minutes.So provide more details on it.

Check the details of the walet that you made the transaction, maybe the walet address was misplaced and caused the transaction not to enter your wallet, maybe you sent it to a custodial type wallet or an exchange wallet. but it's different from a web wallet where we have a private key and we can fully control transactions and assets in the wallet.

You can put address information or your transaction TxId here. then other members will help you. do you make transactions from the exchange to your wallet, or vice versa? sometimes exchange platforms have a different number of confirmations for each transaction. if you use the correct address, you don't have to worry about your Bitcoins. but if there is a mistake with your address, it will be bad for you.

If you're very sure that you didn't didn't make use of a wrong wallet address in sending it, then sometimes it depends on the wallet type you're using, it might have been sent actually but not reflecting on your balance, this may be two things involved, first is to try import your receiving wallet on an electrum wallet and you may find it there, it happens on some occassions whereby the wallet type you used might not read the balance from your account if it's a cold storage wallet with private keys, secondly try and check on the mempool if the transaction was successful or not, though i know that bitcoin transaction are irreversible but the delay in mempool may also be one factor.

Since you mentioned it's wallet I hope you're not talking about exchange's wallet here and if that's the case its different and you should contact the exchange ASAP and let them know your balance doesn't show up.

Now what's possibly can be a reason if its not showing in your wallet, the wallet isn't connected to a node so try to install the latest version of the wallet and let's see if it works but before doing all this just go to blockchain explorer and search your wallet address and see whether the balance is showing there or not.
