Last week (16FEB) I send 0.7 QRK to my Android Wallet.
When I look to the block explorer it indicates the following:
Send 999.9 QRK
When I click on the 999.9 QRK, it indicates that 0.7 QRK is send to my android wallet and 999.2 QRK to the following address: Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX
That address is unknown for me.
According to the block explorer there is 999.2 QRK less in my wallet, than according to the paper wallet.
When I check the balance of Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX this is 999.2 QRK.
What happened and can this be explained?
Yes, this can be explained, but it has nothing to do with the Android wallet. It is normal behavior and happens all the time for every coin. I looked up the address that you mentioned and it is part of a transaction from February 16.
Transaction id: 567380523941ac9a0af38502a05c370180be956480df4ad1abd74214580b93a4
Inputs:
QZ7Lgj6eccCUKECbP855vDd8g1HyS7q5Ya -999.9
Outputs:
QiqEQmQWLgkTVrXLNUJN82wbAwxLq6Dxyu 0.7
Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX 999.2
A transaction has inputs and outputs. The inputs will list the andress(es) of where the coins are coming from, and how many coins are being sent. The outputs will list the addresses where the coins are going to and how many coins are being received.
You wanted to send 0.7 QRK to your phone. Your desktop client looked at the coins it had available (which was in this address: QZ7Lgj6eccCUKECbP855vDd8g1HyS7q5Ya). The client then looked at the coins available in that address: 999.9, 4999.9 and 4854.9. The client chose the amount of coins most closest to the 0.7 that you wanted to send. Therefore client makes a transaction to send 999.9 QRK. 0.7 QRK go to the Android Wallet address and 999.2 are returned to a newly created QRK address Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX, which is then stored in the desktop client's wallet file. Now your wallet has two addresses in it. One is QZ7Lgj6eccCUKECbP855vDd8g1HyS7q5Ya, which is the address to which you recieved the 999.9 QRK (but now has a balance 999.9 less than it did before). The other address now stored in the wallet is Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX and it has a balance of 999.2
It sounds like you accidentally set up a transaction fee on your desktop wallet. It's also possible that you downloaded something and someone is trying to steal your Quarks.
- I have no idea how to set up transaction fees on my desktop wallet. I have done transactions later but then there was no 999.2 QRK send. I have still one of the first versions of the wallet (the one available in December 2013)
Which balance is the correct one? The explorer balance or the desktop wallet ballance? The desktop wallet balance does not indicate that there is 999.2 QRK gone or send. If someone tried to steal my Quarks did he succeed? My wallet is encrypted. How can I restore the 999.2 Quarks, or cancel the sending?
The explorer indicates :"not yet redeemed" after one week
Which balance is the correct one? The block explorer or the desktop wallet balance? The answer is both are correct. Your desktop wallet balance does not indicate that there is 999.2 gone or sent, because it was returned to your wallet using a different QRK address. Your Quark Wallet contains many addresses. The block explorer only displays the amount of coins for a single address, so it reads as being 999.9 lower than it was on February 15.
This is not a matter of setting your default transaction fee. No one has stolen your coins. It is how Quark, Bitcoin and other coins are set up. It is similar to making change for a $20 bill. The person that you buy the bottle of water from will take your $20 bill and return to you $15 at the State Fair.
The coins in Qf5NfxzS4e7ymMMtw9BDNp85PUKro84yHX (999.2) say not redeemed because you have not spent them yet, but they are still yours.
