After running the zappwallet procedure the first transaction dissapeared from my wallet.


I will post the details from Kraken:

Type       Bitcoin
Date       02-29-16 11:55:07 -0800
Address       3JpsxcrmHVqGtMuMckKxpj6kuZni8stjSy
Transaction ID       37346df7f9a4d32f37103897d6b84165ed9cf3fb2ef80434781bd40e7ad85331
Status       Confirming
Amount       ฿0.29998
Fee       ฿0.00000


The second transaction is the following (info taken from the wallet) :

Status: 0/unconfirmed
Date: 3/2/2016 12:51
To: kraken account 2 3FhnBxonrrvcHJmtdJNN9hZfT6zNJcKVSp
Debit: -0.29978942 BTC
Transaction fee: -0.00021058 BTC
Net amount: -0.30000000 BTC
Transaction ID: ef89cbadbf7517e3680edf59af44482664f370cec5161795fd83a9783f381ee5-000








Later edit:

Now I see the first transaction picked up speed and got 4 confirmations. Last night it was stalled at no confirmations. Will anything bad happen because I have used zappwallet and re-send the funds to a different address (albeit of the same Kraken account) ?

You are telling that now you got 4 confirmation on your first transaction then i think if your first transaction gets confirmation then automatically your second transaction will get cancelled as per my knowledge.

Do you have both TX id so we could take a look at them?

I doubt Kraken will charge you for trying to "fake" a deposit. Not even sure how they calculated the fee on your negative balance.

Hello,

I've noticed that a lot of people have troubles with their transactions being unconfirmed for a long period of time and I thought i should share my experience and also look for an advice.

Long story short I have tried to send 0,30 BTC from my BitcoinCore wallet to my Kraken account on 29.02.2016.
The transaction fee selected was the default one in BitcoinCore.
The generated address for my Kraken account was 3JpsxcrmHVqGtMuMckKxpj6kuZni8stjSy . The transaction appeared however in my Kraken account with the label "confirming" attached to it, the next day in the morning. As of 02.03.2016 (in the evening, Europe time) my transaction was still unconfirmed. The transaction appeared however in my Kraken account with the label "confirming" attached to it.

By then I had read about all the problems some people had with confirmations and decided to resend the transaction with a higher fee.

So last night (02.03.2016)  i have used the c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -zapwallettxes procedure and got my funds back in the wallet.
I have generated a new address in my Kraken account  (  3FhnBxonrrvcHJmtdJNN9hZfT6zNJcKVSp  )  - without deleting the old one and send the bitcoins with the ighest setting of the fee slider in BitcoinCore.
Debit: -0.29978942 BTC
Transaction fee: -0.00021058 BTC
Net amount: -0.30000000 BTC

Now, at the time I am posting this message - in my Kraken account there still is present the old transaction, the new one hasn't come up yet, and searching by the second address in blockchain.info i do not get any result.

Did i do something wrong?  Any advice for somehow sorting it out?


Thanks in advance!

Lawrence
