Hi guys

The maximum spendable BTC amount for one of my wallets is heavily under-reported and most of my Bcash funds are locked-in. I was able to send only part of the funds.

Linux Debian 64 bit
Armory 96.1.2
BitcoinABC for Bcash
freshly downloaded databases

Thanks !

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

actually happening again, rebooted computer but this time there was no fix. Balance is currently way under-reported.

What do you mean by under reported? Do you not see transactions that you should? Or does the total balance not match what you think it should be? Or when you try to spend you can't spend all of your coins? Or something else?

- I do see the transactions
- The total balance on the wallet is correct
- when I am in the sending window, on the left, it says "spendable BTC", this is the figure that is often very low, and when this happens I cannot spend coins beyond the tiny spendable amount.


Right now I checked again, not by double clicking on the wallet, but by using the left side button "send bitcoins" and the funds are available again. I don't know if this is a coincidence but if it happens again I will check if by accessing the wallet this way it solves the problem.

Thanks Andrew

If you click on Send Bitcoins from the Wallet Properties dialog, you will only be spending from the Bitcoin in that specific wallet. If you have other wallets, then you will not be able to spend from those other wallets.

You can also enable Expert mode and use the Coin Control feature when in the Send Bitcoins dialog to choose the coins that you want to spend.

it just did it again: right after sending BCH the under-reported balance appears and I can't spend but a little bitcoin dust. Tried to access the spend window all both sides (wallet properties, send bitcoins, and double clicking wallet) and no luck. I will restart and the problem may go away again.

update:

-coin control did not help

-at the bottom right "Unconfirmed": the amount of supposedly unconfirmed funds is exactly the amount I cannot spend. Those transactions are years old and are super confirmed.

Did the transaction you just create spend from those funds? If so, that means that those funds are now unconfirmed because they are returned as change to you in the transaction you just made.

I have no idea whether the funds came from the same batch as the recently spent funds, but it's possible.
