My address is 0x9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e and I had ether in it but it suddenly went down to 0 I have also never been able to find my address on ether chain.

  • Your address seems to exist https://live.ether.camp/account/9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e There is no ETH on it though, what makes you think you had ETH on it ? – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 10:26
  • I ran web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether") and it came up with 30 – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 10:41
  • and I suppose eth.coinbase is 0x9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e ? wouldn't it be possible you have another account you asked for the balance ? you can use the snippet here : http://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/2531/common-useful-javascript-snippets-for-geth to get all account balances quite easily – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 10:42
  • still saying 0, and saying I still only have one account – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 10:53

    How would you have 30 in the 1st place? Someone sent you some? Did you mine some? – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 10:55
  • I mined some, I was at 35 mh/s and now for some reason im only at 11 now – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 10:57
  • what's your miner command, maybe you think you mined to this address and you dont ? what client you use to check balances, geth I suppose from what you entered, did you create your account with eth or geth ? – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 11:01
  • is used ethminer -G and i created the account using geth – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 11:14
  • sorry for the bombarding questions, just trying to understand, is there anything returned by eth.pendingTransactions in geth ? – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 11:29
  • that returns null – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 11:30
  • here's a snippet from my history:

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    10

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    15

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    15

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    30

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    30

    ath.accounts

    ReferenceError: 'ath' is not defined at :1:1

    eth.accounts

    ["0x9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e"]

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    0

    web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase),"ether")

    0

    Replying to euri10's first comment that the account seems to exist in https://live.ether.camp/account/9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e , I checked a randomly made up account https://live.ether.camp/account/9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144111111111 and the web site still says that the account exists. live.ether.camp/account is not a reliable indicator that the account exists. Entering the same account into etherchain.org seems to be a better indicator of whether the account has been used and both the original poster's account and my made up account shows up as not found! – BokkyPooBah Apr 01 '16 at 14:16
  • interesting, http://etherscan.io/address/0x9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e finds one, https://www.etherchain.org/account/0x9ac0e6b745bbd98eec2d900d5ee8144157d7fc1e doesn't – euri10 Apr 01 '16 at 14:53

That account never had or ever has had ANY balance on it. Additionally, that account never had or ever has had ANY balance on it on the testnet.

My guess would be that your coinbase is referencing a different account.

Moulie415, how long did it take your miner to find the 6 blocks? From https://etherscan.io/ether-mining-calculator, you should currently be only finding a block every 11.2 days. The testnet and dev blockchain will mine at a much faster rate.

  • So will I only be able to see ether in my balance once i have mined a block? – Moulie415 Apr 01 '16 at 16:24
  • No, if there is any ether in the account you will be able to see it without mining anything. What everyone is trying to ascertain is why it is you think that there should be a balance on your account? Where did you get that ETH from? – xxx Apr 01 '16 at 16:43
