It's probably because of the transaction fees. You can change the transaction fees to a lower fee if you don't mind waiting for a while before it gets confirmed.

And also, don't use Blockchain.com's wallet. couldn't count how much problems I've been reading about it lately.

Try to use regular fee although the fee is too high at the moment. If you use priority fee, the fee will always be high. Lately, blockchain.com wallet isn't that convenient as above said. You should use electrum if possible.
Please move the thread to web wallet section.

It may be due to transactions feesas mk4 said, however the difference is too big for transaction fees.

It may be due to confirmations. Is some of your balance originate from a recent transaction? You must wait a few confirmations before you are able to spend it.

I also suggest that you look for some other wallet.

I second the opinion to use another wallet to manage your funds. On a side note, if you have lots of inputs then you might want to consolidate them first. Currently the mempool is full so maybe wait a few days before you do it. Weekend is usually the best time to do that.

Afaik recent transactions or not it should not affect the fees.

its not fees problem , because when you calculate +200$ fees , it still won't hit my balance

If it's not a transaction fee problem then it could probably as above said if your balance originate from recent transaction where your balance is there but some of your transaction isn't confirmed yet that's why you can't send them. Is it really not a transaction fee issue?

Nope, there is no way to have a sending limit in blockchain, we got people sending millions of dollars every day without having this problem. This must be due to the transaction fees generated on making the transaction. But I'm wondering why the fee from that small size transaction is kinda high? with that amount it should be a dollar or less than a dollar I think, although the network is congested I don't think the fee will soar that high tho, or you made it priority transaction?

Yeah ...the possibility for it to be the transaction fee is there,according to mk4, and it might caused due to transaction confirmation,it has happened to me but after sometimes it process well

[nebras1920]

I dont have pending transactions on the account , and the fees cannot be the problem because including the fees it will be 6600$ - 6800$ , and my balance is 8700$ , so what is the problem with the rest ?

Blockchain.com wallet supports and some other altcoins. If i am not wrong, the displayed amount in your screen is the total value of all your assets. Check all balances seperately, and make sure that you are about to transfer bitcoin only. Maybe you have 6600$ - 6800$ in bitcoin and the rest is in your other balances BCH or Eth.

It can be a bug from blockchain wallet. Try to export your seed phrase from blockchain wallet and import it into another wallet like Electrum. If you really have that amount of bitcoin in your wallet, you should be able to spend it using other wallet.

[yhiaali3]

Of course, this happens because of the fees. When you transfer, you have to pay some fees, which are automatically deducted from the amount. You have to use the fees button in order to reduce the fees to a minimum, it may be about $ 1, but you have to be careful not to reduce the fees too much because this will make your transaction stuck in the network due to the low fees.

i am not able to make a connection between the blockchain wallet and Electrum , i used my recovery phrase , and they didnt detect my wallet , no balance shown on Electrum

Maybe a bug? Still, with high fees, it should be covered by your current balance.

Did you check the suggestion above that it might be your total balance from different cryptos? Blockchain currently supports BTC, ETH, BCH, XLM, and USD-D.

Or maybe try to get some information on their support: https://support.blockchain.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

The transaction fee seems low than other wallets actually. It's an online wallet though that many will not try using for its safety. The monent I learned that people are not using this wallet because of its security and we have no control over our funds, I then move to another wallet.
 I have used a blockchain.com wallet in the past which I completely forgot the password. But I didn't know we can adjust its fees.

Guys what about paxful , is it good for long time usage ?

The seed phrase blockchain wallet give you is BIP39 seed and you should be able to recover your wallet using Electrum.
Perhaps, you are selecting a wrong script type when importing your wallet into Electrum. You must select "Legacy" as script type.

It may be due to confirmations. Is some of your balance originate from a recent transaction?

Afaik recent transactions or not it should not affect the fees.

You are correct. This is why I said that the difference is too big to be a fee problem and is problably related to an unconfirmed transaction. He probably received a thousand USD from recent transaction, not yet confirmed, and ofc he can't spent it.

No.The only good thing for a long term usage is a hardware wallet. I recommend ledger nano or trezor.

Paxful is not a bitcoin client (if you are looking where to store btc) and i think you have a lot to learn before to understand the differences if you are thinking about Paxful as an alternative to blockchain.com wallet.
What searches had you made to come accross paxful as a suggestion? We need to know what assets you store so we can help you. Most comments above are based on self conclusions as you don't provide clear details about how/why to migrate from a platform to another (i consider blockchain.com as a platform rather than a wallet) .
For now, maybe you should focus on your funds on blockchain wallet as you still can't transfer your full balance from it.
