I'm using bitcoind-0.15.0.1 version & My Wallet Address is: muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ
But whenever checking balance with following command:
bitcoin-cli getreceivedbyaddress 'muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ'
It appears to be 0.00000000, while the wallet has 0.0007 BTC stored!
Bitcoin.conf indicates I'm connected to the testnet: testnet = 1
What is the problem?
Is muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ an address of the wallet you're querying? What does
getbalancesay? – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T18:52:53.180My wallet address = muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ
bitcoin-cli getbalance = 0.00000000
There is a balance in the wallet but it does not appear. – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T18:54:57.083
Then I think you're querying the wrong wallet. You can't ask for information about addresses that are not in that wallet itself. – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T18:56:29.880
wallet true. registered in node. but no balance appears. – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T18:58:10.570
How did you inport the address? What does "getaddressinfo muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ" say? – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T18:59:23.543
getaddressinfo Method not found. because i use node version 0.15.0.1 – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T19:02:27.927
Then you should update urgently! You can use
validateaddressinstead ofgetaddressinfoin 0.15. – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T19:04:23.997./bitcoin-cli validateaddress "muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ" { "isvalid": true, "address": "muweVvHKnK1bE88pUsrpSAPuWry1V1AmHZ", "scriptPubKey": "76a9149e3d4e1e102c388f26f2e4d6cabe38d7be0187ea88ac", "ismine": true, "iswatchonly": false, "isscript": false, "pubkey": "031365b3a9d073ac31fc2a92ddf3c894972a5e0323b764e963fc2d8e229dc44569", "iscompressed": true, "account": "testnet-icin", "timestamp": 1567514729, "hdkeypath": "m/0'/0'/8'", "hdmasterkeyid": "ab73360cdaf8a69a63ed1c816129c4d9a33d4c1c" } – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T19:06:11.827

1Ok, you're half a million blocks behind. Just wait until it fully synchronizes. – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T19:11:04.897
how long does it take? I encode a payment system with bitcoin. what should I do to not wait so long? – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T19:12:10.203
Depending on your hardware and settings a few hours to a few days. There are many questions about speeding things up. – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T19:14:30.590
I am using ubuntu virtualbox. I think this is the reason for the delay.i will buy vps server. What features do you recommend? – Erdem Öztürk – 2019-09-04T19:24:03.480
RAM, fast disk, and set the dbcache option in your config file appropriately. – Pieter Wuille – 2019-09-04T19:54:27.187
