[Bug] - Wallet Balances Incorrect

[KryptomineCH]

What happened?

My Transaction history is all over the place eventhough I do not send/receive any chia.
I dont know how to better describe it. there are plenty of 0 value transactions as well as additions and removals:

The issue exists on windows, linux, cli and gui.

No money is actually removed/lost/added, so it seems to be a mostly visual bug.
However, the Transaction history is barely usable like that.
As far as I was able to invetigate, this is related to offerings which are beeing cancelled and reissued with an updated price. So It would be nice to see that in a separate list or with a filter which is able to filter out offers which have been cancelled or accepted by oneself and thus net 0. Alternatively, the list could be updated to show more valuable information such as

• offer created, own offer got accepted, foreign offer accepted, offer cancelled
• transfer, cat transfer, transfer received...

I can confirm that I am also seeing the same thing, with one addition. I am running two full nodes on the same network. Sometimes when I cancel an offer, the coin will appear removed on the one machine, and then re-added on the other machine. It scared me the first time I saw it, because it looked like someone made a withdrawal without my permission. Regardless, the -0 entries are a pain to deal with, please take a look at how canceled offers are handled in the GUI.

[KryptomineCH]

yes, that was litterally my same concern in the beginning.
I also am running a full node on my network

issue seems to be existing in 1.8.2 still

Hey, @forReason @KryptomineCH and @acoolprogrammer123 . These additional transactions are expected when cancelling offers on-chain as cancelling on-chain means that the coins associated with the offer are being sent to one of your own addresses (this "spends" the coin making the offer null and void).

It seems that we might be able to convert this issue ticket into a feature request for including filtering options within the transactions list, would you all agree that this would help to navigate the transaction list without completely removing the on-chain cancel offer transactions?

[KryptomineCH]

That makes sense.
I have my own cat which I need to refresh offerings for frequently to adjust to price changes.

the change would be much appreciated.

possibly there are issues with creating and canceling large amounts of offers. are you running your own local node?

[acoolprogrammer123]

I am running a full node on one machine, and a wallet on another machine looking at the full node as a trusted peer. Both machines are looking at the same wallet. The wallet machine is where the offers are created, canceled and accepted. I understand that an on chain canceling of an offer will create a - transaction and a + transaction. What I am seeing is that the - and + transactions are not totaling up so that my wallet shows a much larger balance than I ever had of the token. Stopping the wallet, deleting the db and letting it resync seems to correct the issue, but then it crops up again.

Setup/Environment

The setup looks very simmilar to mine:

• Also have one full node running on a Ubuntu Server virtual machin in my network.
• Multiple Wallets (5-10) in differend environments (virtualized serves, windows, ubuntu and en user machines) connecting to the full node
• Wallets seem affected simmilarly throughout versions. Some on virtual ubuntu servers, some on Windows, GUI and CLI
• I think I first noticed the issue on 1.8.0. but its possible it was present earlier.
• Some lookup queries are running directly to the fullnode via rpc as well.
• there is also a testnet node in my network.

Wallet Balances

I also encounter simmilar Wallet Balance issues which appeared recently, but I do noit really think they are related.
Both issues appeared at the same time and the wallet balance issues were originally why I checked my Transactions.

Balances are totally off for both, xch and my cats (it only showed too little balance so far)
On my full node I was able to resolve the issue with deleting the wallet db. On some wallets though, I needed to send my full wallet balance to myself on a wallet which showed all balance for the other wallets to correct themselves. That was quite concerning as multiple wallets showed the same, incorrect balance.

I encountered this (balance) issue on multiple wallets, one of which is my farmer wallet which usually neither creates offers, nor merges/splits coins.

for clarification purposes:
KryptomineCH is my business account. Unfortunately I cannot access it from everywhere.

"What I am seeing is that the - and + transactions are not totaling up so that my wallet shows a much larger balance than I ever had of the token"

This is the wallet balance as reported by Chia or are you totaling the TX history?

We know the TX history can be incomplete but balances should be correct. Sending your funds to yourself would result in coins being merged down which could help alleviate a bug. Are there any exceptions in your log files that would point to issues handling coins? We do filter XCH dust which means the balance may not always be the same on different machines but that would be very minimal amounts of XCH.
