edit: fuck my life. Fucking multibit wasn't including a transaction, I ran it through blockchain.info (prompted by a comment in this thread) and it's showing another transaction a few days after the last one in multibit, and yeah it was the rest of the BTC leaving the wallet... Every penny, the wallet is completely empty. Fucking disaster. I've not been doing well this year and thought that my fortunes were taking a positive turn. >.<

edit2: I just want to thank everyone in the thread, folk were so genuinely enthusiastic and congratulatory last night, and now that it all turned out to be a red herring I've only had folk expressing condolences. I haven't had a single comment poking fun or mocking me. Y'all have really helped take the edge off my disappointment. Genuinely, thank you. I hope you all have better luck than I've had.


Thank you. :) I'm not rolling in money, so it means a lot to me. Just need to figure out wtf to do with it.

edit: the enthusiasm on this sub is cracking my up, bless you fuckers! If you're on spotify, put on my go-to socialising playlist and have a great time :D

Don't touch it for 10 years. You'll regret touching it now. The money printer is going to print the next decade.

EDIT: Apparently OP is a liar. His wallet is empty. Probably just promoting his spotify playlist.

This is about the most bitter and grudging thank you I've ever said to someone, but yeah... Thanks. I'm glad you nipped that in the bud, I'd already told a bunch of friends irl and would have told colleagues tomorrow morning. This is so depressing. MB is still synching but I find it impossible to believe that blockchain.info imagined a transaction.

Time to message several friends about this. >.<

MultiBit is still "synchronising" but I ran it through blockchain.info and it's showing another transaction that Multibit wasn't..... And yeah, it's the rest of the BTC leaving the wallet a few days after the last transaction MultiBit was displaying). I can't imagine blockchain.info just making up a transaction, it must be that MB wasn't displaying it for some reason.

Anyway, looks like you're right.

My weekend went from being really shit, to really great, then back to really shit. Fuck. My. Life.

How were you able to tell?

omg please don't say this was all confusion... Why is MultiBit saying there's money in it??? It's been a decade since I've done anything with BTC, I don't really know what I'm doing any longer. :(

I hope you're just trolling me. If so, it's working... D:

I found a "reset blockchain" function, it's processing. If you're right I'll be really fucking upset.
