And what is that ,,mystirious,, adress 1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61 Huh is it change adress?
I hope so Smiley

See if it's part of your wallet: click Help > Debug window > Console > enter listaddressgroupings.
See if it's in that list.
Or just dumpprivkey directly, import into Electrum, and be done with (if the address is yours).

I send from 1PxbkNHMKXxrZP8KnJTYaG64VwDnchr9ri:
Confirmed.

0.04517068 to my new wallet adress: 19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1

0.00100000 is the fee send to: 1Jxw2KfwDaVWgBZVsvdYLpT1Npyzf7cGTa
Partially incorrect. Transaction fees are added to the block reward, the transaction fee is 0.00010000 BTC. The address you mentioned did indeed receive 0.00100000 BTC, but it's not the transaction fee.

I doublechecked adresses and check pc for maleware etc...before send
Clearly, something different from what you expected happened.

My wallet 19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1 doesnt recieve nothing but there was appear new adress: 1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61 (wich is an change adress, i think, like there said a lot of people) and amount of my 0.04517068 is there (unspent status) here: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61
Could it be you tried to send a small amount (0.00100000 BTC) first (as a test), and for unknown reason it was send to the wrong address?

Quote
The (fee) status for 0.00100000 send to: 1Jxw2KfwDaVWgBZVsvdYLpT1Npyzf7cGTa is unspent
Again: it's not a transaction fee.

Best case, the address holding 0.04517068 BTC and/or 0.00100000 BTC belongs to your Bitcoin Core.
Worst case: you somehow managed to send everything to addresses you don't own.

Have you tried just exporting the private keys, as suggested earlier? If your wallet contains the keys, this can be resolved within minutes.

Can you check everything you've written so far, and correct or remove irrelevant information? That might make it easier to understand your problem.

I generate request link to my Blockchain wallet(19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1)
This address for instance has never received a transaction. So showing it doesn't help.

Quote
And Instead of receiving 0,0451 btc ( 0.0462 - 0.0011(transaction fee)) I received only 0,0011 btc.
None of this is correct. These are the outputs:
Code:
1Jxw2KfwDaVWgBZVsvdYLpT1Npyzf7cGTa 0.00100000 BTC Unspent
1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61 0.04517068 BTC Unspent
Which of those addresses belong to what wallet? Which amount did you send and which output is the transaction change?

Can you double check all addresses and amounts in this post, and then post it again?

Ok, so step by step:

Last year I made a transaction from my Bitcoin Core wallet (very old version from 2013, not actualised and not sychronized at that time) to my new blockchain.com wallet.


I send from 1PxbkNHMKXxrZP8KnJTYaG64VwDnchr9ri:
0.04517068 to my new wallet adress: 19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1
0.00100000 is the fee send to: 1Jxw2KfwDaVWgBZVsvdYLpT1Npyzf7cGTa

I doublechecked adresses and check pc for maleware etc...before send

My wallet 19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1 doesnt recieve nothing but there was appear new adress: 1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61 (wich is an change adress, i think, like there said a lot of people) and amount of my 0.04517068 is there (unspent status) here: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1Cb5Hk4FyY7wvTNkfZJCgdnCaj6tmgYh61

After a long and unsuccesfull comunication with blockchain.com tech.support I came here for help.

First I actualize my Bitcoin Core wallet
Then I sychronize all blocks by pruning
Then I -rescan and sychronize blocks again

The (fee) status for 0.00100000 send to: 1Jxw2KfwDaVWgBZVsvdYLpT1Npyzf7cGTa is unspent

Status for 19yXZeABqCEmYHx8mdL7JapvkfLLUXrFf1 is ? and 0/unconfirmed not in memory pool.

So that is my story

Asking for help with solution wich will be rewarded

So the network agrees that 1C5b address has all the change, but your node thinks that it is unconfirmed.

If your old Bitcoin-QT made a second output of the rest of your bitcoins to some other address then it had to have this address in your wallet file. There's no way that Bitcoin-QT would just send change to any old address you don't control as a result of you only using the GUI to make a transaction.

To find the private key of your change address I suggest using pywallet, download it from https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet and run it like this:

Code:
python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --wallet=wallet.dat

If you get an error message about the wallet file being encrypted or password-protected, then also pass the password like this:

Code:
python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --passphrase=yourpassword123 --wallet=wallet.dat

(?) Status: 0/unconfirmed not in memory pool.

Please do what the other members have suggested and right-click on the transaction and click "Abandon transaction", then it will be gone from your wallet.

I known this screenshot is for some altcoin that's a bitcoin fork but I don't have a (testnet) bitcoin-core wallet with transactions handy to demonstrate.


Ignore everything else in this screenshot, it's irrelevant. Just right-click the transaction and select Abandon. (this option also exists in Bitcoin).

There is Question mark on the left (?) Status: 0/unconfirmed not in memory pool. Color: grey
Since it's not in your memory pool, you should have an option to abandon that transaction in the right-click menu.
If it's an outgoing transaction, your spendable balance should return once you've abandoned the transaction.

In my previous post, I've mentioned a way to check for the details of that transaction in the console, you might want to check it before deciding to abandon the txn.
Here's the reply:
-snip-
-snip-
You can check the outputs and other info before deciding to send/abandon the txn using the command decoderawtransaction "RAW_TXN" to view its human-readable format.

Since he's using the GUI, he can simply right-click on it and select "Copy raw transaction" to get the signed RAW Txn.

So I did complete rescan ,unfortunately it doesnt help Sad

any other ideas please?
What happened to the transaction/wallet?

Does the transaction in the 'Transactions' tab has an "X" tag on the left side?
If the details says "Status: conflicted.....", it (or its parents) may have been replaced by another transaction.
If that's the case, you can't do anything to that transaction, it's just saved in your wallet but it's invalid.

Please, where i should put: -rescan ?

I am not a Mac guy, but I've read some things here that could work for you:
https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/57312/how-exactly-do-i-run-the-rescan-command-for-bitcoin-qt-from-console-on-a-mac



Method 1

Open "Finder".

Press Cmd + Shift + G

Paste this:

~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin

Edit bitcoin.conf with TextEdit

Add this line:

rescan=1

Save it, then run Bitcoin-qt.

After you the rescan ends and you quit don't forget to revert the bitcoin.conf

Method 2

Right click Bitcoin-qt

Choose "Show package contents"

Go to Contents/MacOS/Bitcoin-Qt

Run Terminal.

Drag the file to terminal

Type -rescan

Press Enter.

Don't quit Terminal before the rescan ends and you quit Bitcoin-qt

It's done.

You can use the console to do the same thing, just open bitcoin core's menu and select "Window->Console", type rescanblockchain and wait for it to finish (It'll return with a start_height and stop_height).

According to your previous posts, seems that you are using MAC.

For running bitcoin core with a startup option in MAC, you need to do the following. [Ref.]

Open the Mac terminal. Then type

Code:
open Bitcoin-Qt.app --args

where are your startup options. Just make sure to have a space between each option. Press enter and Bitcoin Core will start with those options.

Replace option with rescan in the code above.

-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'

you'll most likely need to use -zapwallettxes command line argument

Actually that is no longer available starting with Bitcoin Core 0.21.0, as you can read here.
The new option available is abandontransaction (but I still have to read myself more on that)

Also OP transaction is from 2020...


Should I abandon transaction?

Should I wait?

The transaction is confirmed for more than 6 months. Wait and abandon are out of question.
I think that what you should do is to make a copy of the wallet.dat (if you haven't) and then restart Bitcoin Core with -rescan. You can read more here.
But if you are in pruning mode that would mean yet another full download of the blockchain, hence I'd wait for more ideas.

Is the fee 0,00011 (for 192 bytes) for transaction too low?

Should I abandon transaction?

Should I wait?
It doesn't look like the transaction you've linked in the OP because of the total fee and size. A transaction conflict ('cause of RBF/etc.) maybe?
You can check the outputs and other info before deciding to send/abandon the txn using the command decoderawtransaction "RAW_TXN" to view its human-readable format.

What happens if you goto "Window -> Console" and enter:
Code:
getrawtransaction PASTE_THE_TRANSACTION_ID_HERE
That will return with an error: No such mempool or blockchain transaction. Use gettransaction for wallet transactions because the transaction is "not in memory pool".
Since he's using the GUI, he can simply right-click on it and select "Copy raw transaction" to get the signed RAW Txn or follow what's written in the error.

In options i can see that my transaction Status: 0/unconfirmed, not in memory pool
If you right click the transaction and select "copy transaction id"... then search that transaction ID on blockexplorers like blockchair.com, blockchain.com, btc.com, blockcypher.com etc... do you see anything at all?

The "not in memory pool" part of the status is problematic... it means that the transaction basically does not exist anywhere except in your local transaction history stored in your wallet file.

What happens if you goto "Window -> Console" and enter:
Code:
getrawtransaction PASTE_THE_TRANSACTION_ID_HERE

Do you get anything at all? Huh If you get a transaction hex output, you can use:
Code:
sendrawtransaction COPY_PASTE_THE_HEX_FROM_ABOVE_HERE
And it should rebroadcast the transaction... but read the warning about the current state of the network below.


If you don't get a transaction hex... you'll most likely need to use -zapwallettxes command line argument and then rescan the wallet so it can identify and display all the "confirmed" transactions and balance as per the information currently recorded on the blockchain.

You should then be able to resend the transaction if desired... but be warned that after the Tesla announcement and subsequent pump in BTC value, the network is super busy... there are over 100k unconfirmed transactions and fees are in the 100+ sats/byte range again Undecided
