Allways make sure you have your private keys saved on safe place and if needed you can allways import them on blockchain.info wallet and have your money available in seconds.

Thank you guys for answering. I just got a little parnoid for a few hours!
First of all: bitcoinqt on mac, latest version did show 14.xx BTC after sending 2 BTC during synch. and quit of bitcoinqt as available BTC amount on the main screen.
There was no transaction in the wallet confirming this amount. I was able to do transactions and sending this 14.xxx BTC which is probably the double amount of what should be there. But now, after reading your feedbacks it may be that the software just used an 'hidden' internal adress!

I speak portugees fluent but the comment on the mentioned transactions was (for a short time, probably until next start) just some slang...

To make things short: I'll do this commandline stuff as I'm now pretty shure things didn't went wrong. My local wallet just got mixed up, however its obvious that I need to read a few pages about bitcoins, wallets and blockchain this weekend!

I understand that bitcoinqt-software does not loose/spend by error any btc upon bad user interaction.

So again, thanks! Wink

Do either of these addresses look familiar to you?

  • 18xMCM7s7mXEYkxCubkp7awjbeV4P1xFmi
  • 13beVuv6jD1ofzuqJSWkx4F5hRFjSQRXyv

The Bitcoin Core wallet includes many addresses that it keeps hidden from you.

In addition to 1P6gPKQq5ipMGs4UsZ1e4UPwoYRzKwP9kF

As far as I can tell, the following two addresses are probably also controlled by your wallet:

  • 1AtdVcedmMcpjQPCDjJ5hm7jjksEXb2A4g (which received 9 BTC of "change" when you sent 1 BTC to 1597CrMH17hdjGbBMCdZnNex8vrKdoyNKM on 2014-04-10)
  • 1LKWAts1Vq4nHD8dZVJaJd7NvNiGzyZu1J (which received 7.65 BTC of "change" when you sent 1.35 BTC to 13beVuv6jD1ofzuqJSWkx4F5hRFjSQRXyv on 2014-05-27)

Then I can't quite tell what happened...

On 2014-05-27 it appears that a transaction was sent from the wallet, but I can't for certain if the transaction sent:

7.6149 BTC to 18xMCM7s7mXEYkxCubkp7awjbeV4P1xFmi with the 0.035 BTC of "change" going back into your wallet with the hidden address 13beVuv6jD1ofzuqJSWkx4F5hRFjSQRXyv

or

0.035 to 13beVuv6jD1ofzuqJSWkx4F5hRFjSQRXyv with 7.6149 BTC of "change" going back into your wallet with the hidden address 18xMCM7s7mXEYkxCubkp7awjbeV4P1xFmi

Last transaction: 11. April

Last transaction: February



Is your wallet fully synced?

Why do you use a wallet in a language you can not understand completely?


A long shot: Try and run your (I'm assuming bitcoin core) wallet with
Code:
-rescan
Code:
-salvagewallet

Other than that give some useful info, i.e. what wallet, version etc.

Hi

I'm a bloody newbie (damm! didn't prepare myselfe enough!!!).

I made some transaktion in the past with my Bitcoinqt wallet with success.
24th of June I've made at transfer of 2.0 BTC during synchronisation of the wallet.
This 2 btc never arrived and the status in my wallet is set to '?'.

Than after a day or so I've noticed that my wallet (still out of synch) showed a saldo of 14.xxx BTC which never could be true as I only transfered 10 BTC to the wallet. Starting wondering about this I started to try to spend this amount.

-I'm so shure that I did use the correct adress as destination. Suddenly when I finished the transaction (Yes I was successfull doing so) the transaction showed up in the history with an wrong adress I never used and do not know about.
Here the address:1tUEh3HRL99EEVukAE6ri5q1prgddEkd2

How something like this could happen? Anybody knows this behavior?

Checking the status of the transcation by dopple click on them there was an never seen message (my wallet is configured to use portugees so I can't read everything!) like '0/not confirmed and something like ...don't foule...'
Now after restarting the wallet this message changed to the normal '0/not confirmed'.

Looking at blockchain.info I'm not able to really understand BTC transactions. Now my local wallet is in synch and shows more or less 0.0 BTC Sad

As I'm just such a dump not understanding the blockchain I'm afraid I've lost all my BTCs but there should be around 7 BTC left.

-Anybody can tell me what happen? Is it possible that my local blockchain data got corupted without bitcoinqt realising?
How do I recover?
-I allways was thinking I could send BTC's during local blockchain synchcronisation. Is this true?
-Anybody just could calm me down in order to check the blockchain and tell me how many btc blockchain.info shows for my wallet?
adress: 1P6gPKQq5ipMGs4UsZ1e4UPwoYRzKwP9kF

Sad have I really lost my btc's or is it that I've to kill the local blockchain and synchronising again?

Thanks for help!
