No Confirmations, no transaction?

[Knabber]

Hi there,

I have a problem. 2 days ago I send some btc from one wallet to another. I googled my way but this is driving me nuts.

All in all my old bitcoin qt wallet had some btc in it (~0,9). I sent them to my onlinewallet. so far so good. the btc went to transaction... but did they?

TX-ID (2fec578241e93c47f3495ddf41cafb8f91b561af297b8414ecb23e8afb408f72).. blockchain.info --> Sorry we could not find any blocks or transactions matching this hash

Receiver adress: blockchain.info --> no transaction for this adress.

I payed a fee of 0.0001 btc, as i set up ages ago.. could this be the reason why it takes forever?

What freaks me out is that the whole transaction doesn't appear and my wallet is empty.. never had a case like this in 3 years!

Any Ideas what is happening?

The transaction was likely dropped out of mempool, you should've received the BTC back in your desktop wallet. Try resending it with a higher fee next, use cointape for knowing if there is a storm of already unconfirmed transactions and hence increasing your fees per KB accordingly

I dindn't receive anything in my desktop wallet back.. was is the low fee I paid?

That looks like a technical problem. This gets automated with return of bitcoins into your wallet.
So as suggested it is better to try with high transaction fee, so to have a fast transaction.

any Idea how long this could take? 54h now

Its pretty random, but a transaction gets dropped from the mempool on average from 4 days- a week. Have you checked the transaction on other block explorers? Blockchain.info is pretty unreliable some times

[Knabber]

yeah, gave that a shot like 12h ago.
allright.. i just hope my btc didn't vanish..

Thank you guys, i just have to be patiant i guess

[Mickeyb]

BTCs don't vanish  . Best thing is to keep waiting for at least another week, you should get it back. What is the address you sent it from(do add the one you sent it to as well) anyway?

trying use blocktrail but still not found

i think your transaction will be reject from blockchain and your bitcoin will be back to your wallet

well what's the sending address? check that address and see if it still have the bitcoins. if the bitcoins is still there get the private key and just import it to some other wallet (I think your old wallet have issues. create a new one and update your core.). you can spend it to another address then.

the sending adress is blank, not btc there.. this is what was freaking me out

but i guess if its stuck somewhere in the mempool, somewhen the transactian will be cancelled and i get my btc back to the sender add.

Well can you post the address you sent the BTC from, publicly for tracking purposes?

[--Encrypted--]

maybe you should post it here. I'm starting to suspect that you're just trolling. really very sorry if you're not.

[Knabber]

I'm very sorry if it seems so; i'm seriously confused right now and have a very silly question:

where to find sending adress?

edit: part of the btc lost i received via

I have no idea how to get the address in core if you don't remember it. you can try updating your qt to 0.12 and copy the raw transaction instead (right-click on tx and copy raw tx.).

QT/core does not just forget about a transaction, you have to tell it to do so.

#1 close core/qt (if you are still on "qt" you should update to 0.12 btw)
#2 make sure its fully closed
#3 start with -zapwallettxes, e.g. on windows you:
#3.1 hit win+r (to open run)
#3.2 enter: c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -zapwallettxes (modify path if needed) and confirm with ok
#4 let core do its thing, it might take a few minutes to a few hours depending on your overal system speed (CPU, disk mainly)

Your Tx is confusing. It seems, you have already spent the inputs of this Tx in some other Tx. But, it is still available in some mempools.

so I'm at hour 76 now..

@TigerMart: this perfectly looks like my transaction.. this is my only transaction for about 1 week..

any ideas how to solve?
I already used -rescan, -zapwallettx etc.. desperate here -.-

I'm not an expert (just learning the technical aspect myself) but maybe you could:
- search witch addresses contain coins
- dumpprivkey
- close the wallet, don't open it again
- wait untill  the network forgets about your transaction
- sweep the private keys directly into blockchain (since you seem to want to use an online wallet).

(-maybe you can import the keys into electrum, and create a double spend with a higher fee?)

As i said before: i'm no expert... Maybe Shorena or somebody else with loads of knowledge can confirm/deny this method?

I'd personally never use an online wallet to hold 0.9BTC, but each to his own.
