Hi - Great question. Without more detail it is difficult to know for sure. Checking the block explorer, You can see the drop from 94 to 70. If your wallet still contains the 94, my best guess is that 70+ are in the claimed address and, the balance are in a different random address in your wallet - most coins work this way on returned change. Versions 1.8.0.1 and prior requires you to enter your claimed address in the "Custom Change Address" box to have coins definitely returned to the specified claimed address. The next update will automatically return the change to the sending address.
To check this, use coin control feature. It shows the size of the inputs and, what addresses they are in. Just check the box beside the coins in the non-claimed address and sent them to your claimed address.
It is important to have the private keys for each address. If you have coins in a random address without knowing, and
if your wallet was corrupted, and
if all backups would not work then, the only way to get your coins is to import private key for each address that has coins. Problem is: if coins are in addresses you do not know about, then, you will not have the private keys for those addresses.
I had that happen in a different coin - wallet corrupted, backups would not work - fortunately I had all of the private keys.
If you send or combine blocks (send to yourself), the wallet could take a block of 10 coins, send the 2 and return the balance to you
but, in a random address. For those that do not already know, coin control allows you to see the size of the input blocks (piles of coins).
you can then select which piles to combine - generally bigger blocks stake faster.
Sorry for the length of this post but, it is important info for those unfamiliar with "Coin ControlTo set up coin control so you can see exactly where your coins are:
1. Go to "settings" and click "options". Then, click "display" and check the box "display coin control features".
Then, click apply & OK.
2. Next go to Send. At the top you will now see a box called "Inputs" - click it and you will see what addresses your
coins are in. Most likely, you accidentally sent your returned change to a random address within the wallet instead of
claimed address.There are tons of addresses that come with the wallet and are hidden.
3. Whenever you send any coins, check the custom coin address box shown on the send coins page. Copy and paste your
claimed address into this box - that way unsent coins will be returned to the claimed address. (Versions after 1.8.0.1 will automatically return change to the sending address).
4. To get the coins all back into the claimed address, go into inputs and check the boxes of the other addresses and click OK. (Or, click the box at the top "select all"). Note: when you move your mouse to the left of the check box on the lines that show the totals, a green arrow will light up.
Clicking the arrow shows all of the blocks in an address. (or double click the total shown). Now send your coins to the claimed address in your wallet.
Say you start with 16 coins. When you get a stake, the wallet splits the coins to 2 piles (blocks) of 8 plus the small stake.
Eventually the blocks are too small to stake in a reasonable amount of time or, really small blocks may never stake.
Most people would go to the inputs area & check all of the small blocks under the size of 1 and then, send them to yourself
(the claimed address) creating 1 or more larger blocks again.. Just make sure you follow #4 when you make small blocks into large ones so you end up with them in the claimed address.
