Hi everyone,

I'm quite newbie in the Bitcoin World. Recently, I downloaded Bitcoin Core (v23.0.0) and created a BTC wallet. I clicked "Receive" button and generated a btc address. Then, I sent some BTC and it worked well. After that, I did another transaction that worked well too. However, yesterday my balance was showing 0 and I don't know why. I used a explorer to check if the BTC was moved but it wasn't. I though it could be due to pruning the blockchain so I re-indexed but the balance remains as 0.

I tried to dump my BTC private key but I can't since it's a descriptor wallet and the following commands don't work: walletpassphrase "your walletpassphrase here" 600 & dumpprivkey [your Bitcoin address here]

Thanks in advance.

It is possible that you sent with a fee was to low, so the transaction was never confirmed and because of this deleted after some time. If you want you can send the TxID to check that.

Are you sure your Bitcoin core wallet is fully synced and that you have good internet connection?
If explorer is showing you correct balance that means you need to leave your wallet to fully download blockchain... and be patient.
Other SPV wallets is alternative if you want to have lightweight alternative like Electrum.

Did you by chance remove or restored your wallet from a backup?
Did you change by chance the data directory path?
What error you get when those commands "don't work"?

(also, as said, keep in mind that all that may be missing could be the patience to wait the wallet get properly synchronized.)

What error you get when those commands "don't work"?
"Descriptor" wallets do not support those commands.
Instead, it only allows the export of "parent descriptors" which contains either the master public or master private key.

@FullMetalCryptomist
You can do this workaround if exporting the prvKeys is the only option you have left: /index.php?topic=5351210.msg60007045#msg60007045

For now, use rescanblockchain <start_height> <stop_height> to scan for the latest transactions.
Since your blockchain is pruned, make sure to set the correct start_height since it can't scan the pruned blocks.
To get the unpruned block height, enter getblockchaininfo and look for "pruneheight" from the result,
use it (or higher) as the start_height and leave the stop_height empty.

example workflow:
Code:
getblockchaininfo
-Let's assume that pruneheight is 734668
Code:
rescanblockchain 734670
-It will take a while to scan depending on how many blocks you have.

It is possible that you sent with a fee was to low, so the transaction was never confirmed and because of this deleted after some time. If you want you can send the TxID to check that.
This is impossible.
It takes 14 days until an unconfirmed transaction is removed from the mempool. Also, the default maximum capacity of a mempool is 300 MB and we didn't reach that in the past days.
So, even if OP has made the transaction with fee rate of 1 sat/vbyte, it should be in the mempool, at least.

Yes, I re-indexed and now I'm storing all the blockchain (the folder contains more than 460 GB).

Sorry to all that wasted their time trying to help me. Finally, the problem was that I'm fuckin dumb and I deleted the wrong wallets due to the pruning (as it showed 0 balance I though it was a empty wallet). I have restored the wallet and the funds are still there.
