transaction is showing on chainblock.com but not in my core software

[happydumpy]

Hi folks, I realize that I might look like the biggest noob out there right now and that's fine because it's a fact.

So, yeah I've purchased some amount of bitcoins yesterday morning and my transactions came up this afternoon on chainblock.com. Now, my wallet is in my bitcoin Core wallet but none of my bitcoins are in there. I need them to be there fast. What can I do?   

Thank you

Your wallet needs to be synced first. Also did you send your bitcoins from the website you purchased them from to your wallet :p

Like what the others said, sync it first. If you want it fast, import the wallet.dat in %appdata%/bitcoin for windows or ~ ./bitcoin for linux and copy your wallet.dat and paste it somewhere. Next, go to https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet and drag your wallet.dat to the square box.

A simple rescan will solve this issue. First take a backup of your waller.dat file located (For windows)in C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin
Then, do a rescan this is how you can do this. -rescan

I hope OP is not using blockchain [DOT] com (SCAM! FAKE! DO NOT GO THERE)

u can also use a lightweight wallet like multibit electrum, armory if you don't want to download the blockchain everytime. u should always verify the software used to handle your bitcoins and avoid big scam sites like blockchain.com.
