I attempted a Bitcoin transaction on Monday Jan 15 2018. For the first few hours, the transaction was showing on blockexplorer.com and blockchain.info as "unconfirmed."

Then after a few hours,, the transaction is showing as "no such Transaction" or "Transaction doesn't exist" on all of the major block explorer sites.

It does still show up on btc.org. Here: https://btc.com/1ButD31URdVvb9R7oTDy6fXRqMdPWo1MQp

As of just now, the transaction has been "seen by 6 peers." But it still is unconfirmed.

There were adequate transaction fees.

I am worried that I may not have access to my 0.6 coins until this transaction either confirms, or completely deleted. My remaining 0.58 coins are in limbo and unspendable.

So,

What could cause an unconfirmed transaction to be visible on blockchain.info etc. and then disappear within a few hours?

Can I expect tje transaction to eventually complete, or be cancelled and returned to my wallet?

Here are the details. Thanks.

The only problem with your transaction, is the low fees. If you see on this site: https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/tx/1caf59701a823996b95a8063ec9ba76959a303bd6a0ea05f78a509c91b02f608 your transaction has 15.92920354 sat/B, but the recommended fees now are: 450 satoshis/byte as you can see on https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/

I know you are worried about it, because already you had a long wait and still unconfirmed. So, i have bad news for you, you will have to wait more, because there are close to 160000 unconfirmed transactions right now, and the ones with priority are the ones with high fees.

What you can do now, is to use a transaction accelerator and pray for it. Hope this helps https://viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

Good luck  Wink

Your tx had a tiny fee 15sat/b.

The reason is not showing on other explorers is because they've already dropped your tx from the mempool.
It still shows on some because they have different settings or allow more tx in the pool.

Most likely the transaction will never get confirmed and it will be dropped by other soon.

There were adequate transaction fees.

No.  There were not.

You paid 0.00003600 fees for a transaction that was 226 bytes.

0.00003600 / 226 = 0.00000016 BTC per byte (16 satoshis per byte).

According to this website:
https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/

You need to pay fees of AT LEAST 0.00000440 BTC per byte (440 satoshis per byte) for fast confirmation.

I expect your transaction to take a VERY VERY long time to confirm.

What wallet did you send the transaction with?  Why did you set your fees so low?

Your low transaction fee is the cause of the delay. You may have to wait for a long time for your transaction to be confirmed.
