Just to clarify... when i submit something signed it says its in mempool and just sits .. never is picked up for confirmation ...
It's your mempool, it's still subjected to other node's mempool if your transaction will propagate.
Try to search its txid in blockexplorers; if it's not there, chances that it's only in your node is high. (
or a few nodes)
Follow up question .. when you fundtransaction is this the same as singing it ? As it indicates its signed at that point
No, it's used to add inputs to an existing transaction.
Mainly used for funding no input transactions created via createrawtransaction command.
I have checked mempool site its self and only says its waiting for it to appear which means i guess it hasn't made it to the chain... ?
besides pushing a raw on the various sites, is there another way to submit this ?
Okay just wanted to make sure about that. Regardless i do sign it afterwards.
So on both the fund and the sign comnmands.. it would add extra data on to the string correct?
I only see it add the data onto it when i fund it .. not when its signed despite it coming back as true... would this still be valid?
