I saw that also. 28btc sitting there. I just bought some s9's using my keepkey wallet. They send the BTC to a new address first to hide my keepkey address. The confirmation box on google disappeared while it was transferring(my fat finger) I send the BTC to bitmain again and it worked. The 'lost' btc ended up still in the new keepkey transfer address. If I just looked on the blockchain my main keepkey address was short 5btc. It actually was still in the new keepkey transfer address. If I looked at the keepkey balance using the actual keepkey all the BTC were there. They were just sitting in two different addresses which were both keepkey addresses. Went through a bunch of aspirin, valium, and tighty whiteys.

@kano My wallet has been hacked and all bitcoins stolen Please send payout to my updated address on Kano.is for moecarrim The current one 1CarrimxAWT62knwTnHWUavDPht5PJ8wKv has been hacked and all funds drained Any money sent to this account is automatically stolen This sucks...I think this is everyone's nightmare. Which wallet were you using? I had a vanity address that was made offline So I can't understand how this happened It doesn't make sense I've been using that address for 5 months and suddenly all 30 of my BTC is gone. And it was hard earned money and I don't know what to do. Ang advice will be helpful? My guess would be that you have a compromised computer somewhere. It is far easier for someone with bad intentions to get some sort of malware on your computer than for them to "hack" anything. You should be very careful that you don't just wind up giving them access to your new wallet addresses as well. My wallets reside on a computer that does nothing else but hold wallets and most of the time that computer is turned off. I have some web based wallets as well for "spending money" but if someone manages to get malware on my machine and steal my web based wallet passwords they only get the petty cash.

I wish I was better at tracking -- it looks like a UK IP address (159.8.161.37) was used for the initial theft -- than an France IP (195.154.7.245) for the transfer. Doing an upper level search -- all the way to 195.154.0.0 still shows the same owner -- 79 SPAM accounts use these IP's which means the owner is letting them be used for nefarious purposes. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Just got up and working on the first French press...really saddened to hear Moe's plight...even more so because it has happened to me back "in the day." I've got a ceiling IQ (which, when coupled with US$2 gets me a coffee at the local barista), been in professions integral to banking, LE, and IT for 50 years, and I still didn't have a good enough handle on things to not lose a bundle at Mt. Gox...a similar situation to Moe's, but on a much larger scale. These are the elements I've noticed, at least, that lend to the risk of being hacked for your coin. The first (I know, I've said this many times) is using a third-party wallet...whether it's on someone else's system or your own. I use one wallet, the Core Client (actually I use three, but they're all on separate computers); the data files for each are not on the system drive, but on a separate "data only" drive. I NEVER keep coin in the wallet at an exchange or other such entity unless it's being used in a current transaction, and it will only be there for a few moments. My personal view is that third-party wallets that add bells and whistles for subaccounting, etc. essentially create more opportunities for hacking; I just use a LibreOffice database to track that sort of thing. You can, of course as I do, put multiple core client wallets on multiple machines (one on each, which appear as independent clients otherwise). Encrypt your core wallet(s), so you have to use a strong password to take anything out of it...so that even if they get into your machine they'll not get the wallet contents. The second is to dump Windows for Linux. There are so many holes in Winbloze (resulting from trying to be everything for everyone), so many ways for a blackhat to get into your system via malware, that IMHO it's become a labyrinthine behemoth. I switched to Linux (yeah, I know...why did I wait so long?) last year and have never looked back. It's not bulletproof, either, but a whole lot simpler and safer...and you don't need to run a bunch of malware/virus apps to secure it. I happen to use Ubuntu 16.04 LTS; Kano uses Red Hat; and there are a couple of other "flavors" that are just as good. If you use Windows, my recommendation for the past ten years has been to implement SpyBot Search & Destroy (the free home version is more than adequate) in tandem with Avast antivirus (again, the free version). If you're lazy and don't want to manually update your SpyBot files weekly, you can pay US$13.99 annually and it will do that part for you automatically (no, I don't work for SpyBot). From my experience (a lot of it over the past ten years especially...I'm the only experienced civilian data recovery/security serf on an island of 60,000) these two apps together provide a level of security (for free) in excess of any paid package I've seen yet. I don't believe there's any way to get your coin back. That's hard...it does suck. Hang in there.

this was probably asked before, difficult to find an answer. In my blockchain.info wallet that i use for kano's pool there is a difference of about 0.127 BTC between what the wallet shows as the balance and what could be transferred out. Is this due to orphans and how they are presented in there? anyone?

Using a vanity address generated privately on my offline computer No one has access to my wallet but me and I'm using block chain. I know I'm really upset. That money was part of a business start up and also some were for my rentals. At this rate I won't be able to carry on the business and the rentals until a solution is found or by a miracle the funds are recovered.

I really don't know what exactly you're referring to, but I can say that most wallets will not transfer out unconfirmed coin. Has nothing to do with orphans, etc. no, there are no recent unconfirmed inputs. If there are, they probably correspond to kano's pool orphans and are buried so deep in the account, i will have to go down dozens of pages and sometimes that wallet prevents you from doing so. it sucks. my question was basically if someone else had the situation where blockchain.info wallet mishandle inputs from kano (probably reversed orphans)?

I have a blockchain address as my payout from the pool and I don't have that issue. I always drain my address when it gets above 1 BTC or so and never had a problem draining all of it when I wanted to, although sometimes I just do an even BTC for simplicity sake. Seems to me that .127 is a pretty big discrepancy also. Did you ever have a double spend sent your way by any chance?
