Can you clarify?Which of the addresses are yours, and where did you sent from?

[Kryten12]

Not really sure what you are showing us in that tx hash as it's a bundle of tranactions amounting to 7.9 BTC

Can you be a bit more specific about what you are supposed to have bought or exchanged?

That address is the BTC wallet address from the exchange I sent from, how could it not have any transactions? If I sent BTC from that wallet, int the exchange (btcmarkets.net)

I sent BTC to an "investment" site  called http   btc2double    DOT COM, not sure on hyperlink rules.

Yes I know im an idiot for this, still worth fully understanding.

If that is the case, then yes, those funds are gone.
Any services that claim that they can double your "investment" are either scam or ponzi.
Consider it lesson learned.

Sorry, you have been scammed. Any site that promises to double or multiply your money is a scam. You are unlikely to be able to get your money back. The only way is to identify the operator of the website and go after them.

Here is some helpful information. You don't have a "wallet" on an exchange site. You have an account. 1DRy...4Y1R is not your "wallet address". It is an address in the exchange's wallet used to identify your account. If BTC is sent to the exchange at that address, then the exchange will credit your account.

Oh right, is there a way to tell on the blockchain where the BTC was sent from (e.g exchange address) if that is the case?

And I understand Im probably not going to get my BTC back,  but i can still use this opportunity to educate myself as much as I can.

Also the BTC is still "unspent" at the destination wallet, so you never know, but yeah most likely gone.

[HCP]

Oh right, is there a way to tell on the blockchain where the BTC was sent from (e.g exchange address) if that is the case?

Yes... in the blockchain.info link you showed: https://blockchain.info/tx/58a037f0938af6b9185954935272485430655c0e797b3d588de83bf3f1e012b6 (I recommend you click the "Show scripts & coinbase" link to show ALL the info)

The INPUTS are on the left... this is the address(es) that the Bitcoins were spent from.
The OUTPUTS are on the right... this is the address(es) that the Bitcoins are being sent to.

So, in this case... the coins were spent from: 1HACTewJ5shjUFTczK7ak61uXMTq911u9j... 7.96373995 BTC worth...

That was sent to:
17E9TDaAdXEvL6xCJ3cwSnjRM9Rr1Focc3 - 0.04446125 BTC
and
1LE3ePXYs3SMPsPeGuarXZN7wme6dSFMac - 7.9187787 BTC

Also the BTC is still "unspent" at the destination wallet, so you never know, but yeah most likely gone.

Unless you have the private key for that address... then your chances of getting it back are practically zero.

can you explain, where do you sent of bitcoin? if you sent it to exchanges, just wait your bitcoin is confirmed and you will received it
but if you sent to someone, possible your bitcoin is lost.

[Thirdspace]

I sent from   1DRyn1exfNr1fSdLYE71D2TyYys3Tc4Y1R

To                17E9TDaAdXEvL6xCJ3cwSnjRM9Rr1Focc3

this post got me lost.
how is it possible you claimed that you've sent $ 748.62 from an empty address
but when you said you sent to btc2double I don't need to think anymore
whenever you sent your bitcoin to a site promising to double your btc... it's 100% chance you LOST it

btw where did you get the address 1DRyn1exfN?
you might want to tell us chronologically what happened from the beginning
start with your txid for BTC deposit to the exchange or maybe you bought/traded for BTC
then how you sent/withdrew BTC to address 17E9TDaAd proven by txid given by the exchange
so we can see the money trail (track BTC) leading to 17E9TDaAd and reasons why you think you got scammed

He did explain it all already...

Basically, he thought his "deposit" address on the exchange (btcmarkets.net) was the wallet address he sent from:

In the end it makes no difference like you said... he sent to a bitcoin doubler... those coins are gone

Sad to say that they’re gone. That’s one thing about bitcoin transactions is there are not reversible. this is a very expensive lesson to learn. You always have to be very careful with who you buy/sell/trade or send bitcoin with.

What a sad and expensive way to learn bitcoin trading. Make sure to research first before engaging to buy/sell/trade. Transactions in bitcoin is not reversible and will not be traced either.

[gotminer]

Wow ... Why in the fuck would anyone ever think that is legit?  I mean the fucking name of the site is BTC DOUBLE?  JEZZUS FUCKING CHRIST!  Use well known exchanges and stop giving away your money.  Lesson learned I guess, but that's just strange that someone would fall for something like that.  My 80 year old grandmother wouldn't fall for that shit. 

Not to say that well known exchanges can't get hacked, but please educate yourself, before you make any future transactions in cryptocurrency.

If he were trying to help double the site operator's btc, then he did the right thing ... LOL.  He sure as fuck played a part in helping them double their BTC.
