Topic: 0 confirmations after several days - BTC gone? (Read 2108 times)

This is actually first time I am hearing something like this. It seems that the original sender would have received the coins back. Kindly ask you sender to show the transaction on blockchain and since he will not be able to show ask him to send back the coins again to your id.

What precaution can be taken in such scenario?

can you share your bitcoin address? because im not see the TX code at blockexplorer

Yeah, I also can not open it with blockchain.info explorer, roughly what happened? whether the transaction was rejected or how? Thank you
May be the problem solved and the transaction is returned. I think now a days the minimum fees must be set to 0.00025 instead of the old 0.0001 may be because the price of bitcoins has increased and more people using bitcoins Smiley

Hello all
I have sent funds to a BTC address however the transaction is still showing Status: 0/unconfirmed after several days.
I have successfully sent funds to the same address in the past so I dont understand what could be the problem, however the beneficiary is not crediting me for the money received and the money is gone from my account, what can I do?
You need to consider or check your transaction again, maybe something was missing or you do not give an appropriate fee and make your transaction is delayed.but yesterday a lot of people have the same issue with you.

Hopefully you get your money back soon, I personally have never experienced such a problem. What wallet are you using currently?
Yes I too never experienced such a problem with bitcoins. I was shocked too see that the transaction does not exist and for a moment thought he pasted a wrong string for transaction.

You'll get it back eventually, OP. Or not. Probabilistic nature of transactions is what makes bitcoin so much fun.

It is not that funny, if your cash is stuck somewhere for a week or two and you are running short on finances. A few months ago, I needed some cash urgently. I transferred BTC from my Blockchain.info wallet to Localbitcoins, so that I could convert them to fiat cash. The confirmation took 3 days, and I had to borrow money from some of my friends to cover the expenses.

Happened to me quite a few times. A month back, I sent BTC0.025 to one of my wallets from blockchain.info. The fie size was a little bit high (18KB), as there was a lot of dust. I paid BTC0.001 as the tx fee (why should I pay more? It is almost 5% of the transaction volume). The transaction took 5 days to confirm, and I was really frustrated with the system.

yeah if block is full no matter the fee right? so why i should pay more and wait like someone that didn't pay anything lol, they really need to address bitcoin scalability

This has happened to me several times but apart from blockchain no other chain is also not showing it, this never happened with me. Basically his txn must have been rejected by network by now for sure.

You must know that the transactions are increasing by day and what fees normally people pay is 0.0001 so to make sure that your transaction gets confirmed much quicker, pay at least 0.0005 btc Smiley
0.0001 fee nowaday is not even fulfill the requirement of minimum fees,with this fee sometimes your transaction will be longer than people who spend their 0.0002~0.0003 as a fee,but why don't just spend few cents of your rest coin to speed up your transaction,it is not even enough to buy 500ml of cola

Don't worry,Your btc will not be lost, but have to go through a long time to confirm the success of the transfer。
Pay a little more for the next handling fee.

hee-ho.
OP's transaction have been double spended by https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/9300574b89f3e28f4b0c8d7417124834f0e30fc75117b8e479913f350f0e34a1/ . this thread is from 2 freaking weeks ago so I'm guessing there's no need to reply further.

Well, blockchain often not shows it but even blockr.io is not showing it ... strange.

it's normal. it means both explorers have dropped the tx from their mempool.

Can you show us the transaction id?
If the fee was insufficient you'll either have to wait it out, or attemt to create a RBF/double spend.

Sure no problem the ID isb95b4e2c38bed1cdfc6fb21291a457281ab8d58badb956f5aa8f6403410adeef

I already checked and it is not showing in blockchain, so what can I do?
Ihave no idea what is a RBF/double spend?
Well, blockchain often not shows it but even blockr.io is not showing it ... strange. Please pay proper or more fees due to the busy chain now a days I am also doing the same. Its sad to see you lost btc but I think you will get back once rejected by the bitcoin network.

Bitcoin will never magically disappear, it's impossible to lose your money, your money never goes into some sort of limbo where it's stuck for life, it may just take a long time if the fee is shit, this is why RBF is not a bad idea.

Because of the many transaction like receiving and sending bitcoin it result for a slow confirmation. I already encountered that same scenario and i just wait for the confirmation like 5 days.
