Problems with Bitcoins Mined in 2009

[pooya87]

Because there is no way that the transactions would disapper from his wallet, even if it got hacked or something of that kind.

But the wallet software should purge any invalid transaction that it finds inside the wallet file. For example if the wallet file were fake meaning someone had manually inserted transactions in that wallet that didn't belong there, the software removes them which means those transactions would "disappear from it".
This is why I asked OP how he found this wallet and addresses. Specially when I saw his post history and the involvement in a fake topic about "brute forcing bitcoin keys"...

In my experience with altcoins and living a life of mistakes i suggest not syncing any wallet on a network. Just download the blocks and process the history offline by rescanning.


I could name a dozen ways this can go wrong, hell why did the developers think resending wallet transactions on loading wallet was a good idea lol. Imagine loading a wallet with orphan tx and boom as soon as you want 1/100th of your prev balance from the value going up you end up sending it all away.

Also keys can be in your log files if the database for the wallet is not detached. Or has run into corruption issues from cves or bugs. Dont delete the database directory no matter what people say.

This was actually mined, the transactions in the blocks until 2010 appear valid, all of a sudden after that period all transactions disappear from the history, it was not purchased or something like that

I hope you made a copy of your wallet.dat for backup purposes.

You can try to rescan it if you think that it's not properly scanned the first time.
If your Bitcoin Core isn't set to prune old blocks, you can enter the command rescanblockchain to the console to re-initialize scan.
To open the console, go to: "Window->Console" | Make sure that the correct wallet is selected in the console before entering that command.

If Bitcoin Core has pruned the old blocks (see the if this is ticked: "Settings->Options...->Prune block storage to"):
I'm afraid you'll have to restart from scratch since the 2009~2010 blocks are the first to be pruned.
You might consider disable pruning first (if it's enabled) if you have the disk space.

Could you maybe finally check the address balance on mempool.space or some other blockexplorer. Because if you don’t do that it is very hard to tell if there is an issue with your wallet or the bitcoins were really somehow transferred.
