Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool, abandoned - 3 YEAR OLD transaction!

[ballinout2]

I have this transaction from a few years ago that is not in memory pool.
I tried to zapwallettxes and full rescan, but I did not receive my bitcoins back. I have tried abandoning the transaction but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Is there any way I can get this transaction amount back into my wallet? If so, what are the steps I must take.

Thank you very much

Bump ; please can anyone help me with this problem.

Would you mind sharing the TX?
To my understanding it should be possible to "double spend" this transaction (back to your own wallet) with a sufficiently high fee so it gets confirmed.

I'm trying something similar with a stuck transaction of mine, the only problem seems to be it is still on the mempool.

Your's should be the ideal candidate to verify this approach.  

Alternatively you can simply try to broadcast the transaction again. However if it has a low fee it is unlikely to be confirmed anytime soon at the current situation (200k+ unconfirmed TX in the mempool).

Thanks for your reply,
I would love to test out this double spend method, but I do not have sufficient bitcoins to resend this transaction.
It's a fairly high amount.
I am not home currently so I will get the TX to you later tonight

I didn't think it was possible either, and I was so surprised to see a question mark beside a transaction from that long ago, and having the ability to abandon the transaction to this day...

It's probably an altcoin wallet.
These transactions are listed, but don't exist on the Bitcoin chain because the wallet is for a different cryptocurrency.

Have you ever had Litecoin, Dogecoin, DASH, etc?

yes I have, but there are probably a 100 bitcoin transactions in this wallet, I know its bitcoin for a fact. I dont think its from another coin.

Technically, if I am not mistaken, you're still in possession of the coins since the transaction where those are supposed to be spend are not confirmed and most likely never will be without manual intervention.

However without more info everything is just guessing. I can help you trying to create the double spend transaction and try to "recover" those coins if you can prove your case.

No, that's apparently a Bitcoin address - it does exist on blockchain.info.

Of course. But the transaction referred to does not exist on the blockchain. So the question is what happened with the inputs that were part of that pseudo transaction.
It could be just some wallet quirk and the coins might as well still be "there".

Since you broadcasted the transaction years ago, and have tried abandon transaction and zapwallettxes.
I just assumed that maybe at least 1 node picked it up and it somehow got stucked in their mempool for years.

Well anyway, tried this? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=35214.0

No I haven't, but I don't see how it could be different from --zapwallettxes =1
