Title: Paper wallet amount not yet visible in blockchain.info ?
Post by: joe1234 on January 16, 2018, 06:35:05 PM
Hi all

Some month ago I bought some "Satoshis" at a Bitcoin ATM without having them swept to a wallet software.

Today I entered the public key (34 characters) of the paper wallet in blockchain.info but get the followig message:

"Oops! We couldn't find what you are looking for"



Why that, are my Satoshis not yet on the blockchain?


Thank's a lot for any help!


Joe

This means that the address you searched is invalid. Even if the address is empty, you can see it in any explorer.

Is your address starting with a 1 or 3? If it's not, then that's probably not an address.

can we see the history of transaction if the wallet never go live (offline) in blockchain.info ?

Yes. Wallets are just clients. Everything is in the blockchain (which that can be viewed online).

Did you ever view it on the blockchain when you first got it?  I would double check that you have the correct key and that your entering it in properly.
