           FRAUD!!!



On May 14th, I requested 3 withdrawals from my Blockchain wallet:
11.43 AM: 0.1002712 BTC to 12qfSNfc9XeoEi3M3Ty9gw9DUaoR4rsqrz
11.57 AM: 0.5004488 BTC to 12qfSNfc9XeoEi3M3Ty9gw9DUaoR4rsqrz
01.03 PM: 0.3304488 BTC to 1FLbbTKZ3MKwk1h5jVg9CsjJLMVrH47CPj
 
9 days after, none of my BTC addresses have received the requested amount.
 
I summed up incoming (~19.25 BTC) and outgoing (~18.31 BTC) transactions since May 12th.
Subtracting 18.31 from 19.25 gives 0.94 which is roughly the total amount of missing transactions.
 
IMPORTANT! This is NOT about uncorfimed transactions. Please don't reply with "backlogged mempool" stuff.
 
The mentioned transactions are not uncorfirmed. They are just missing.
 
Therefore, my balance should be refunded with 0.9311688 BTC.

Hello,

The bitcoin mempool is currently backlogged, which is causing a delay with transaction confirmations. You can follow it live on this chart, which shows all pending bitcoin transactions on the bitcoin network - https://blockchain.info/charts/mempool-count. This is impacting the entire bitcoin network, not just Blockchain.info.

An unconfirmed transaction will eventually be accepted into a block by whichever mining pool mines the block, or the transaction will eventually be rejected by the bitcoin network after an estimated one to seven days. If it eventually is rejected, then the funds would remain at the bitcoin address they were sent from. The only thing you can do at this point is to wait and see if the transaction is accepted into a block. Like all wallet providers, Blockchain.info has absolutely no control over this, and cannot expedite transactions. This is always dependent upon the bitcoin network of miners, which we are not a part of.

 I :
The issue is that you have reduced my wallet balance without actually sending the bitcoins. That's entirely Blockchain.info's responsibility, no intermediaries are involved. Please take a moment to read the question carefully.

Hello,

Blockchain.info offers a free web wallet service, and we also allow users to view the entire bitcoin blockchain via our search feature. Unfortunately we are unable to assist as an intermediary between buyers and sellers of bitcoins or other goods using bitcoin. Please contact the exchange or merchant you were working with in order to resolve the issue.

Thanks,

I: The bitcoins have been sent from Blockchain.info's wallet, not from someone else's. And the transactions have indeed been rejected. But my Blockchain.info balance has not been refunded since then.

Hello,

Including the appropriate fee gives a transaction a higher chance of confirming faster. An unconfirmed transaction will eventually be accepted into a block by whichever mining pool mines the block, or the transaction will eventually be rejected by the bitcoin network after an estimated one to seven days. If it eventually is rejected, then the funds would remain at the bitcoin address they were sent from. That's what sounds like happened here, so you would need to contact whoever it was that sent you the funds, as they still have possession of them.

This issue is not resolved to the present !!!!


After my attempts to resolve the situation, they blocked access to "User # 5655121783, whose service is suspended, can not enter the service"

But how much is send/withdrawal/miners fees

But how much is send/withdrawal/miners fees

I have read multiple posts saying that their fees were high but lately, their transaction are not being confirmed, the fees are usually calculated by an algorithm based on some factors so It won't be static. I suggest using Electrum because It has dynamic fees so you could change them as you wish to.

You can change fees on blockchain.info.  You just have to go to the "advanced send" section and you can set the fee yourself. 

The problem is that all you see is a number, not an estimation of the satoshi/byte that you'll be sending.  Since Blockchain's ordinary fee estimation is either 120 satoshi/byte (wayyy too low) or completely unpredictable, you just end up having no idea what kind of fees you're sending at all.

That and even if you set high fees,it will throw an error stating "The fees you have chosen is higher than the usual you may want to lower it" but their estimation isn't right.Better use a fee calculator and send the transaction with estimated fee anyway.

So, there is no "Advanced Send" option again with BC.info wallet now ?
I try to search more info/official news about it but can't find anything at all.

I didn't knew they had this option before but from googling I found this (which looks like a new article): https://support.blockchain.com/hc/en-us/articles/209283686-Sending-Bitcoin

Send option look like this today, there is new feature to pick Regular or Priority fee but there is no Advanced Send anymore.

Does anyone else having problems loggin in to their wallet? I have two wallets and both registred to different e-mail accounts. Whenever I try to login it says that it's send me an e-mail to confirm/authorize the login. I've had e-mails like this before so I know the e-mail adresses are correct. But now, it's been over an hour and I still havent received the e-mails for loggin in. Is this a bug, technical problem for the time being or is there something else?

[poker60950]

Been trying to get veri-email for 5-6 hours. I just managed to get the email from Blockchain so hopefully it's fixed system-wide and you allcan access you accounts now.

Anyone else get a momentary "Fuck, I've been hacked" type fear? I did for a sec.

Pff, dude, like really. I was freaking out. It helped that I have two wallets with different e-mailaddresses so when they both didn't work I felt a little better but still...was looking for some status-updates. Bad thing they didnt put it on Twitter or something. Would've helped a lot of ppl.

Is that "customize fee" at the lower right of the screenshot a clickable link, or non-clickable text? If it's clickable what happens if you click it?

Yes, that's right when you click those "customize fee" you can customize your tx fee in sat/byte, that's the advance sending option of the wallet. But I don't think if it really does since I'm not using blockchain in sending tho I  have a  wallet there for viewing the issue of others. Just see the image below when you click the "customize fee"

Thanks for checking. I don't have a blockchain.info wallet so I couldn't check myself. It looks like you can still choose your own sat/byte fee rate, and that's the most important feature. A month ago it seemed almost the only way to get a blockchain.info fee high enough to get fast confirmations.

Logged in, only to find that there is no setting for notifying only after 1-? confirmations. I don't want to get an SMS or email notification for unconfirmed TX...

Not sure if anyone has covered this already (i went back 3-4 pages and didn't find any mention of it), come august 1st, will blockhain.info wallets support Legacy BTC or BTU? I would really love to know their official position on this, i don't see any information on their wallet landing page either! I think it is in the interest of every member who owns a web wallet, to understand how their coins may be affected by the upcoming soft fork. Apologies if they have already covered this somewhere! Please guide me to the post, if you find it! Thanks.

I believe they didn't state anything regarding this. I mean even If they have their technical issues etc. I doubt that they will screw over their clients without any notice, this could pretty much kill them but just to be safe, you may want to backup your private keys and stay in full control.

Thank you for your reply, i didn't realise i could control my private keys with a web wallet! I will look into getting this done now. I read somewhere that Roger Ver is an investor in Blockchain.info, whether he can sway the board into following his path is anybody's guess. If he is a major investor, i guess they will toe his line and support BTU over BTC, but unless they are sure of hitting a majority, they would not take such a huge risk. They might reveal their strategy a week before Aug 1 i suppose!

I've used this wallet intensively for the byteball coindrop, I've experienced some frustration.
(numbers are fictional for privacy)

1)

Code:

I have 10 btc in address A of my (non-imported) wallets. I send 3 btc to my exchange. 
This transaction sends 3 btc from A to the exchange, and sends 2 btc to a new address B of my wallet, and 5 remains inside A.

What's the reason coin is sent from a to b? All it does is increase fee costs for this and future transactions.
I'd assume it's because reusing addresses is bad for privacy. But this is not the case here as some coin is still is A.

2)
Also, using the memonic passphrase I can sign messages with any specific addresses of any specific wallet. (using github tools in offline mode)
Some coin of a wallet was sitting in an address, comparable to address B above, for which I could not locate the private key.
I had to transfer those coin to a new receiving address of the same wallet, for which I did locate the private key.
Maybe these intermediate addresses have a different type than the receiving addresses? not sure


any eta for signing messages within the client (for non-imported addresses)?

3)
Some transactions to previously used addresses were not showing up in the transaction page, although the balance was correct.
I'll investigate this later on, I might be wrong

EDIT: I just send another tx, now a transaction from 2 addresses, although one address has enough to cover the entire transaction??? That's like 0.5$ lost in excess tx size fees I can't imagine this being good for microtransactions.

Reusing addresses is considered not safe too if you are using a bad wallet. When you send Bitcoin from A to B and change is send to C, other than you, nobody will know C is your address. They can only speculate that it might be a "change" address. If you send Bitcoin frequently, using different addresses will make tracking your transactions more harder. If you only use one address, everybody can see all the transactions you have ever made which is pretty bad IMO.

If you are using https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39, change '0' to '1' in "External/Internal" in derivation path to see your change addresses.

m/44'/0'/0'/1 - you can also copy-paste this if derivation path is not as detailed as the above tool.

Ask their support. They won't reply in this forum.

Transaction fee will pretty high if you use faucets or gambling sites or receive many (micro) transactions. Transaction fee will only increase for such users if change addresses are also used. If you don't want to use new addresses per transaction, get private key of that address from seed (12-word recovery phrase) and import it to your wallet.

Note: Don't use two wallets with same seed. E.g. Blockchain.info + Copay or Blockchain.info + Mycelium or Mycelium + Bither etc. If you send Bitcoin from wallet₁ and it send change to a new address, that address won't be shown in second wallet. Thus, Bitcoin sent to that address won't be shown as you balance. Don't do it unless you know your stuff!
