I've a Bitcoin address on which I made a couple of transactions. From what I understand of the blockchain, the ledger is public and anyone can list the transactions linked to a particular address.
If so, why do I see zero transaction when keying my address 39QUZnHVbtXGreq3zndkPtrg1TSho2Mbht on https://www.blockchain.com ?
Same for https://blockexplorer.com.
Are you sure the transactions were confirmed? If they don't get mined, they won't be included in a block. Also, how do you know this address has been used to make transactions? – JBaczuk – 2019-03-05T17:12:53.410
I've made a transfer two days ago from an address stored on my computer with Electrum to this Coinbase address. Both Electrum and Coinbase show the transfer as confirmed and balances are updated. – Coli – 2019-03-05T17:56:55.920
it would make sense if this was the address you think you sent the coinbase funds from, because there is no guarantee which internal address coinbase decides to send coins from. – JBaczuk – 2019-03-05T20:30:53.433
Are you sure that you sent BTC, and not some altcoin? – chytrik – 2019-03-05T21:12:44.320
@chytrik yes I confirm it's BTC – Coli – 2019-03-06T05:42:35.870
Do you have a transaction-ID - what do the explorers say about the transaction? – RedGrittyBrick – 2019-03-06T16:46:04.207
By entering the details of the transaction on Blockchain.com I can see some info. The origin address is not the one I manage in Electrum and the destination address is not the one I see on Coinbase (it also seems that the BTC address on Coinbase regularly changes, confirming @JBaczuk's assumption). Furthermore, why are there two destination addresses displayed on Blockchain.com ?
