Hi,

Something a little disturbing.

I recently restored a wallet backup.

I have paid 99 BTC to this address on (2011-03-20 04:47:46), but the wallet is not showing the payment as received. It is showing a 1 BTC payment that was made another time (2011-03-19 23:46:38).


The wallet is showing a balance of 1 when it should be 100.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

dM


<edit> I should clarify that the transaction is not showing at all, this does not seem to be an issue like long latency confirmation, I have not seen anything like this before. <edit>
Currently running bitcoin 3.20.2

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Which version of bitcoin are you using?

On 0.3.21, it should have done a rescan automatically.
Earlier versions will need to be started with the -rescan switch once.

I do Bitcoin stuff.

Yes, a rescan has solved the problem.

I wonder why it was not automatic?

<edit> because I was accidentally running an earlier binary.... Doh!!!!!!!   Roll Eyes<edit>

Anyway, that is a relief.

Thanks for the reminder.
