Block halving is coming.

I suggest you retrieve the private key from your core wallet and use another wallet instead like an Electrum wallet. Just do this if you still stuck from suggested above.

If you can't wait for a syncing dump the private key from bitcoin core wallet.

- Follow this guide below.
- Click the help button from menu bar at the top right.
- Find the debug window
- Then Select the console tab
- If your wallet has wallet passphrase or password you need to enter this

Code:

walletpassphrase mypassword 600

- Then submit this

Code:

dumpprivkey [mybitcoin address]

Once you have the private key you can now install Electrum wallet and use the private key to restore it to the Electrum wallet. After you restore you can start sending your bitcoin again to other bitcoin addresses without waiting for syncing.

Your coins are still there, it's just that the Bitcoin Core thinks they're not. If you look up your public address on any blockchain explorer, you should see your coins. Follow what BitCryptex has said and see if that has solved it, there are "some" situations that it won't work. Have no fear, you can just export your private key and re-import it to another wallet such as Electrum and use your coins there freely.

If your wallet is not fully synchronized then you don't know forsure if the UTXOs were spent or not, your wallet may show you a balance that is not yours anymore.
There are two possibilities when sending coins while the wallet is not fully syncronized: (please correct me if I am wrong)
- UTXOs were not used: your transaction will be broadcasted but will show as unconfirmed untill the wallet finishes synchronizing.
- UTXOs were spent: your transaction will be rejected as it is going to be considered as a double spend attemt.

Balance is not correct, I sent all of bitcoins to different wallet, but transaction is not available, it shows up in the screen, but it writes 0 confirms and not available in blockchain.com

To unstuck such a transaction, shut down bitcoin-qt and launch it with either -zapwallettxes=1 parameter or zapwallettxes=1 in the config. This will remove every transaction from your wallet which is not in the blockchain.

It looks like you've created a transaction that you no longer control. "If this happens, the transaction will not be confirmed."
Is your balance correct after syncing? No coins lost.
During synchronization, are you sure that unspent output is under your control? In the sense that you did not send? If so, you won't have to worry about syncing.
next time import Pvt key to electrum or any lightweight wallet

It is like "spent, sent"

Yes, I did. Thought it will go after sync finished. Sync finished, and tx hash is not available. Been an hour. Just was waiting for 35 blocks around.

So where's my bitcoins now, then?
