Totally missed his second post, sorry. Scrolled past sig spam too quickly and missed it.
Which is exactly why I think this forum is falling into a state of uselessness.
There are MANY threads that I normally would get involved in discussion, but I open the thread, see the entire first page is nothing but sig ad spam, and figure, "it's just not worth my time and effort to step into this mess, nobody is going to notice anything worthwhile in this thread because they'll be scrolling past all the trash". If I see a thread that I'm not subscribed to and it is more than 1 page long, I don't even bother opening it.
Isn't the address he posted the address that he thought he gave Coinbase?
It's not clear yet, but I think the address he posted in the thread is the address he
DID give Coinbase (or at least I think it is the address that Coinbase told him they sent to).
But then Coinbase says it sent to a different address?
No. I think Coinbase probably actually did send to that address. There is clearly a transaction to that address in the blockchain today.
If Coinbase didn't send to the address he posted, then why did it have any transactions?
He says that the address in
MultiBit is different. I think (I'm not sure yet, and am still waiting for the OP to come back and clarify some things) that he probably gave Coinbase the wrong address. Coinbase probably sent to the address that he asked Coinbase to send to. But that might not be an address in his MultiBit wallet.
OP, Coinbase should give you the txid of the transaction it sent from your account. Can you please post that txid?
Yes.
What is the transaction ID of the transaction that Coinbase sent?
How did you get the address from MultiBit to Coinbase?
Have you checked for Malware on your computer?
Have you tried copy/paste with an address from MultiBit again to see if the address changes when you paste it?
Can you post a screen capture of the MultiBit screen with your bitcoin address so we can see if you got the address properly?
Are you certain you downloaded the "real" MultiBit, and that you didn't accidentally download a "fake" MultiBit from a phishing site?
TXID from Coinbase is in previous post.
I copied address from Multibit and pasted to Coinbase (not sure if I copied QR address or bitcoin address, according to Multibit, I copied QR address)
Have not yet checked for Malware on my MacOSX
Yes, I've tried to copy / paste from Multibit to Coinbase, and it seems the address is the same (btw, my send/request log from Multibit shows the same address that my sent log shows on Coinbase which is 1GV13nHk4ZEKrfMqFnRkMqvPoBmXDzLDeR )
I will post a screen capture if all else fails....?
I hope I didn't get a "fake" multibit site?...sucks for a first time bitcoin experience if that's what I did!!!
