The easiest solution is to find your wallet.dat of your Bitcoin client

Import this into a new wallet on Blockchain.info. Your balance will show up in there and you will have access to your BTC.

Why did you move me out gave very good solution to you aswell

Since they are lost there is nothing to do now Sad

This was indeed quality solution as this sorted out many issues for lots

Anyways if you think here is mine : 1Lo68CyAqyuEYuZ6Lbk6yndik79tfo2rYz

Because your solution, as dev states, was basically a copy post of another. Either way, that solution was never tested as privkeys had already been moved.

Also, just because I do not like your 'the world owes me something' attitude. You have only made 3 posts and 2 contain your donation address and you bragging about how the solution will work and how good it was.

I would presume coins are gone as I can't seem to figure out where the tx come from.

Anyway, I will still award the bounty (0.91BTC unfortunately!)

Please could the following post their btc address;

Bounty will be split evenly in the form of 0.182BTC. Any who do not post their btc address will not receive bounty Sad

No bounty necessary, but thanks for the offer.

I will attempt to find out but will it help retrieve the coins or are they completely gone?

Tymer, stop with the bullshit posts and go back to playing with your 0.0056BTC

If this was a payment to you by a third party, you can make the case to them that their payment to you was never received. However, you should not have completed a sale or accepted the payment as legitimate until you saw it had confirmations - there is a likelihood that it was intentionally constructed from other bad transactions in a way that would never confirm.

(hrm... the forum red-text alerting of another thread post while you were responding isn't working or was removed...)

They are most likely gone! The only reason people asked you to find out is to know who sent you those coins so you can "request" him/her to send you again. Or maybe request a "scammer" tag for him/her.

In the rare chance, your client messed up, it is giving you the wrong address and tx (unlikely). If you can be certain that the address you quoted is where you "received" the coins then they are 100% gone.

Well as I see you run out of ideas.

I haven't run out of ideas. I've assisted in directing the user to discover exactly what is happening in their wallet. I've also asked that they find the date & time of the transaction that funded their wallet so they can attempt to figure out where & when the double-spend that messed up their wallet came from.

Why bother other people that want to help?

Because your random guessing and instructions that add no value distract from the problem, waste time, and cause confusion.

How is this going to help?

I'm posting because I have assistance to offer, not for a bounty. Adding a bounty to a tech support thread attracts others that want a bounty but do not offer assistance.

Agreed. A bounty in the Technical Support thread is usually a good way to fill a thread with useless chatter and random guesses.

It is strange that QT attempted to send the tx without it confirming! very unusual!

This ability is needed because of change, if you had to wait for your change to confirm before you could send another transaction from Bitcoin, you would be limited to one transaction per block. Bitcoin considers all money you've received as spendable, it is up to you to use the information about number of confirmations to see if you should be spending amounts that need the unconfirmed coins.

It seems to believe that you received 43.091522280 BTC in transactionID 8b07497f1d0899044c421db0ba28f0cb211481830f47c65200a3f8edefb3928d.

However, that transaction does not exist in the blockchain. As I suspected, this is why your transaction isn't confirming, and why it isn't being relayed on the network. As far as the rest of the bitcoin network is concerned, those bitcoins have never existed. I'm not yet sure why your wallet thinks it received such a transaction.

This is what likely happened. A quick google search shows that your client indeed tried to broadcast but it was rejected.
Here is a cached copy of blockchain's rejected transactions, which shows that the tx was indeed broadcasted.

Looks like the coins were double spent soon afterwards. Do you remember when the tx was received and the sender's address?

Just deleted tx's through pywallet, done bitcoin -rescan and balance shows 0 confirmed and 0 unconfirmed.

Looks like this might be showing the correct balance, based on the input above!

Agreed. It looks like the OP is a victim of a double spend. Possibly intentional, possibly accidental.

The transactions aren't confirming because peers refuse to relay the transaction with an invalid input, and the rescan shows the proper (0 BTC) balance because it discovers that the 43 BTC transaction never made it into the blockchain.
