Dash Balance And Transaction History Vanish - Ledger Nano - What I Have Learned

There is nothing worse than that initial feeling of dread, when you realise that your crypto may have disappeared into the great ether. Never to be seen again.  Stay Calm

It is not the first time something like this has happened and we have always been able to recover the missing crypto.  But despite that, the first reaction is to panic. Luckily it is only a fleeting moment. The Back Story All our free crypto from the various sources gets sent to the great clearing house Binance.  daily faucet micropayments bi-weekly commission from PipeFlare tips from noise.cash random rewards from Rusty the Bot of read.cash fame tips from Pb0x etc Depending on the amount we either use: the Dust Converter to get BNB, which is used to pay transaction fees. If the BNB builds up then it is used to buy BTC. or we trade directly for more BTC The BTC is then used to trade for a couple of altcoins that we are currently collecting. At the moment it is DOT BAND THETA and TFUEL While we are waiting to accumulate enough of each altcoin, we put a high Sell Order in place just in case. Eventually we reach a point were we need to empty the Binance accounts and send to long term storage on the Ledger Nano. We don't like to HODL larger amounts on an exchange. But we are also aware of the excessive transaction fees Binance charge, so try to strike a balance. We had been collecting on Binance: LINK ATOM and XTZ It was while we were transferring the LINK, ATOM and XTZ to the Ledger Nano, setting up accounts and staking. That we realised that the Dash balance was showing $nil and there was no transaction history.

Don't Panic First thing was to go through our records and establish when and how much had been deposited over a period of a couple of years. That was easy enough, as we keep good records. Once had collated the information went to https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us   and created a support ticket. Needed to give a brief description of the issue and attached documents, screenshots etc. The most important was the **Ledger Live Logs**. You obtain the **Ledger Live Logs** by opening the Ledger Live app. Go to **Settings > Help > Save Logs**

Once you have saved the **Ledger Live Logs** you attach the document and submit the support ticket.  Ledger Support Response **April 03**  - receive a confirmation email with your support ticket # **April 12** - another auto email with lots of links to useless information apology for delay in responding warning not to share 24 word recovery phrase with anyone they don't provide phone support and beware of fake phone numbers they appreciate our patience and understanding But the most important piece of information was tucked down the bottom

So we replied with a brief message

to the email to avoid getting the ticket automatically marked as resolved. It is worth noting that in our dealings with Coinbase and Binance that they just close your support tickets with out any warning. Forcing you to start all over again from the very beginning. Very frustrating. **April 15** - receive the fix download and install latest version of Ledger Live v2.25.1    https://www.ledger.com/ledger-live/download

Done

go to **Settings > Experimental Features** and enable the **Experimental Features API**

go to **Settings > Help > Clear Cache** to re-synchronize the accounts

And like magic the Dash balance and transaction history is restored.

There we go, didn't realise that was a William Shakespeare play.
