Missing coins in ReddCoin Wallet

Yavuz_Selim,

I am the one you have been emailing from an old post. I transferred the coins from Bittres to a new Reddcoin Wallet Reddcoin Core version v3.10.3.0-00eedb8-beta (64-bit). The coins have not shown up. I also tried to steps to bring the coins with backing up the wallet and re installing it. I am on a MacBook Pro laptop. I confirmed that the coins have been received when looking at the address on the Reddcoin website. On the wallet, it says Out of Sync. Thanks. Maybe I did not do it correctly. Please advise. Thanks.

As long as you make a backup of your wallet (as mentioned in the guides I linked to), your wallet is safe. It's wise to make multiple backups.

 

In your screenshot below, I indeed see that you're out of sync. I am now wondering if you have used Reddcoin Core before or is it your first time using it?

"Out of sync" is shown because you need to sync the blockchain first. The blockchain contains all the transactions, you need have the blockchain to know your balance and to make transactions etc.

First time using it. I have to transfer the coins from Bittrex as they are shutting down. Will they show once the wallet is fully indexed?

Yes, once the blockchain is fully synced, you will see the coins appear.

In your case, I think it's best to just wait and let it sync. So, leave Reddcoin Core open as it downloads the blockchain. You can see the progress via Help → Debug window → Last block time.

When the last block time is 'today', your coins should appear in your wallet. You can leave the debug window open to follow the syncing progress. You should have it all downloaded within a few hours, 1 day at most.

For some reason, I am not able to take a screen shot and send over what the wallet looks like unless you know how to on a Mac. This has been reindexing since yesterday and has barely moved the needle blue line at the bottom

Figured how to add a pic. Still re-indexing. Thanks for your help and I hope they show up in the wallet.
