Title: Firstbits not found Post by: soy on March 06, 2014, 06:37:37 PM Okay, I sent 1btc from MtGox to an address on 2/22/2013. Not sure what that was about I went to blockchain.info and punched in the address. The blockchain.info response was "Firstbits not found".
What does this mean? Edit: It means I didn't enter the address properly. Title: Re: Firstbits not found Post by: DeathAndTaxes on March 06, 2014, 06:47:50 PM It means what you entered wasn't a complete bitcoin address (last digit cut off?) and because it was too short blockchain.info was looking for a first bit address that matches it.
The other possibility is that blockchain.info is broke! :) Title: Re: Firstbits not found Post by: soy on March 06, 2014, 06:52:43 PM I found it is an old address of a Bitcoin-qt that I had sent the btc to so as to test how the system worked back then. When I found it, then did a copy and paste, the address was found by blockchain.info. So, although I copied the address what I thought was accurately from a print-out of a MtGox page last year, I must have misread a digit or letter. Did that read and type in twice, both apparently wrong!
