I created a pool on 1/16/2021, but even after many epochs, the pool never showed up on adapools, so I gave up and decided to retire it. Now I am not sure if I retired it properly and how to go about getting the 500 ADA pool deposit back. My Pool ID is:
19baf409a231aa295a81fab2a7d72e9b2f3b8605acbad0e427f22368
adapools shows it as (retired, but I haven’t seen my 500 ADA pool deposit returned to either my payment address or my stake address. I have seen somewhere that it will be returned to the “reward” address, but I don’t have one of those, just stake and payment. When I check the balance on my payment addr, it shows 2.4 ADA, which is what I left in there out of the 505 ADA I initially transferred. When I check the stake addr balance the CLI says invalid address, so I don’t know what happened there. Can anyone give me any hints on how to track down the deposit? Thanks in advance!
Here is the transaction ID:
e8f22dd096d134c5e51ce9d27e41e268245ceaf9a1ba64fa4767816e8fef9401
Thanks @Alexd1985. I didn’t know I had to manually collect the rewards. I followed this guide and when I sent the transaction I got no response from the command line, which is usually a good sign, but I haven’t seen any change in my balance yet.
I thought the withdrawal transaction would move that balance from the stake1… address to my payment address. It has been overnight since I ran the transaction, so I guess it didn’t go through. If I try running the transaction again, I get this error message:
Happy Easter to everyone. This is still not working for me. This morning I tried again to send a withdraw transaction and again I received no error message from the command line, so I assume the transaction went through, but nothing changed. My reward balance is still 500000000 (500 ADA) and my payment address is unchanged. After waiting a few minutes, I tried a second transaction with a smaller amount (300 ADA) and I got the “ValueNotConservedUTxO” error (please see below). I think that is because maybe I have a transaction pending? Why does the CLI not give the user a transaction ID so I have something to check the explorer with? Is there any way to turn on debugging so I can figure out what is going wrong???
Hello, one question from me, I also want to retire the pool, and i’d like to ask whether the deposit is return by itself to my wallet, or do i need to claim manually from reward, as claim reward??
hello, but thanks Alex, but after i try to claim my reward from this link tutorial Guide: How to build a Cardano Stake Pool - CoinCashew
the error arise, it said that there is not TX-IN, and my balance become 0,
Yet my reward (stake address) is correct, 500,000,000
In addition to my comment,
I think the problem is because i sent the other wallet in yoroi to my payment address wallet which makes not sync?? And return 0 wallet,
I used to sent from exchange to my payment address but its still working, but why if I sent ADA to my payment address from yoroi (other wallet) will raise an issue (TX-IN). Do you have any suggestions, beside sending back to my yoroi wallet? because. Currently, I sent my payment address wallet into exchange wallet (binance) that may be complicate the issue.
The node should be synced in order to retrieve the reward… now question… when u created the pool did u imported the wallet via seed words? And after that did u performed transactions from yoroi,
I solved the issue for the most part. My pool was not synced, which caused the initial problem. I didn’t know this because the grafana dashboard wasn’t working because I didn’t have the latest version of the cli. I didn’t want to mess with that machine, so I fired up a new node, waited for it to sync, and collected my rewards. Transferring them to my wallet was another issue. I kept getting UTxO errors trying to send all at once. I had to break it up into a few smaller transactions. I got my 500 ADA back, but I stranded about 1.4 ADA in my payment address. Can’t get any more transactions to work with such a small amount of ADA. Oh well, cost of education about Cardano UTxO. Thanks for your help @alexd1985.
Hi guys. I’ve a similar bad experience. I dereg my pool and my stake address in the same time. Unfortunately I was not aware of my deposit going to my stake address. I thought it was like deposit… going back to my payment address. Anyway, I reg my stake address again but it’s empty, no reward nor my deposit. Do you know how to reclaim them?
