I have a few transfers to another address which also can't be found on the block explorer. The rest are transfers from my mining rigs at the time into my main account, they were set to transfer every few minutes and I had multiple rigs. At the time, these transactions were confirmed many times since I would have definitely noticed if something was wrong with the transfers back then. There are hundreds of transactions to the address starting from 1/7/2014 to 1/25/2014 which was the period of time I mined this coin.
It'd be really great to be able to figure out why it's as if these coins never existed.
I've been scratching my head about this one for the last day.
Wallet files, even from the earliest, original release are still valid, as are the backups.
The fact that the transactions show up, but are in conflict, strongly suggests that there is no corruption in the backup.
Were you winning every block during that time? The 'hundreds of transactions' would have been quite a feat then. Also, were you mining on a pool or solo?
I was mining in a pool with 3 rigs. I had it set to send out coins to my main "storage" wallet from each of the rigs at certain increments that were pretty low. That's what resulted in the over 500 transactions. Due to the long period of time between the first transfer and the last one there's no way they all failed to send since they were all confirmed many times. I even sent them out a few times when I was giving some to people. It's super weird that none of the addresses come up on the blockchain, not mine or the ones I sent to....
I don't understand how my coins could have disappeared, this shouldn't happen for cryptos right? Keys are supposed to be good forever and the blockchain is supposed to be permanent...
Edit: Is it safe to send out an encrypted wallet? If I sent the wallet to you lavajumper, would that help you understand better what happened? I assume as long as it's encrypted, it's fine?
Edit2: By the way, I tried using dumpwallet with the current client and importing again to a fresh wallet since I got some advice that maybe that would work if I rescanned with the private keys. It had a weird result, instead of everything being conflicted, my transactions all disappeared when I did that. Why would it be the case? Even if it didn't work, shouldn't it just show up as conflicted again instead of disappearing completely? I'm not sure...
