Yesterday I sent this tx on Ropsten network. It is a transfer for 999 ethers.

eth.sendTransaction({from:"0x8c60d40a2e848251d139fc2b0b6b770bb3351ffd", to:"0xf9e33261328a1cdc62d3dc6b95880656a1f2a5d9", value: web3.toWei(999, "ether"), gas:4700000, gasPrice: 10000000000});

Transaction 0x86329f1a1022c4d7cfe7c66b319c31481d66c83e0554980ec1b3e567d6f79c97 became lost. First 10 hours was seeing on etherscan https://ropsten.etherscan.io/tx/0x86329f1a1022c4d7cfe7c66b319c31481d66c83e0554980ec1b3e567d6f79c97 as a pending tx, but then it just disappeared and it doesn't exist anymore.

Is there any explanation to such a behaviour? Is no guarantee for a sent tx to be mined?


To quote to answer found here:


Also, it appears that you have succesfully completed the transaction about 30 minutes ago with the hash 0x8b887813e9a2301e35ccafe944850a9356489bb04fa731c1ca14ea96fc6d47fa. https://ropsten.etherscan.io/tx/0x8b887813e9a2301e35ccafe944850a9356489bb04fa731c1ca14ea96fc6d47fa

  • This one is a new tx for the same amount 24h later – Juan Ignacio Pérez Sacristán May 11 '18 at 10:02

    @JuanIgnacioPérezSacristán yeah I figured it was a new transaction since it was so delayed, but thought it was relevant to point out its success. – CJ Jacobs May 11 '18 at 10:03

    @JuanIgnacioPérezSacristán please accept and close this question if this answer was sufficient, otherwise, are there other points I can try to clarify from my answer? – CJ Jacobs May 12 '18 at 7:06
