1  Economy / Exchanges / Bitcoin Transaction to Bittrex on: December 31, 2017, 12:12:36 AM
Hello all, I sent a transaction from my electrum wallet to bittrex that took several days to complete (due to low fee). I was patiently waiting until I saw the transaction being complete with the green checkmark two days ago, yet I don't see the funds via BTC in my bittrex wallet. Did I lose these funds?? I can provide transaction ID # if that will help.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do I sync the wallet client to today's date?

Basically making sure you're connected to the bitcoin network, and wait untill it's sync'ed... On a slow pc, this might take a long time... Just have patience Wink

I had no idea the process took this long, thanks for your help. Makes sense since I sent coin less than a week ago and client is still syncing from 4 years and 33 months ago. I guess I got to run client from the background on my laptop, any idea the length of time it will take to fully complete the syncing?

Network says 4 years and 49 weeks behind.... I don't see any transaction ID only number is the address I sent to.

...if I sent the funds to the wrong address(my first transaction) can the person then access my coinbase account for future transactions when I have substantially more bitcoin in the future on there?...

No, he can't. It even requires some effort for him to figure out where those BTC came from in the first place. The most he can figure out is that the BTC came from Coinbase, nothing else.

BTW, how did you get the receiving address for the first transaction? Wasn't it from your own Core wallet?

Yeah all I did was select receive funds on Core, typed in the amount that I bought on coinbase; got the address it created and pasted that into the sending information on Coinbase. When I open up Bitcoin Core it still says I have 0.00000000000 BTC pending and available.

Hey all, I've just started really diving and figuring out the world of bitcoin and just need some help/ask a few questions. I downloaded a bitcoin wallet (Bitcoin Core) after buying just a tiny amount of funds from coinbase. I just wanted to practice transferring from coinbase to a wallet since I've read numerous articles saying having tons of bitcoin on coinbase is not advisable. So the first transaction I made I bought a fraction of a bitcoin from coinbase and proceeded to send it to my bitcoin wallet, but I never received the funds back the next day! As I understand it, the funds are gone forever but since I was just experimenting with the platform it isn't a big deal. I just want to get the process right. I sent a second transaction today which is still pending but hopefully I followed the steps. I requested the amount on Bitcoin Core and then copied the address and on coinbase used that as the receiving address. My question is if I sent the funds to the wrong address(my first transaction) can the person then access my coinbase account for future transactions when I have substantially more bitcoin in the future on there?  Thanks.
