If you're not seeing your expected balance in your Aleo wallet, there could be a few reasons:
- Wallet synchronization: Your wallet needs to be fully synchronized with the Aleo network to display the correct balance. When you first open your wallet, it may take some time to download and process all the blocks and transactions on the network. During this synchronization process, your balance may not be accurately reflected. Allow your wallet to complete the synchronization and check your balance again.
- Recent transactions: If you've recently sent or received funds, it may take some time for the transaction to be confirmed and included in a block. Aleo transactions typically require multiple confirmations before they are considered secure and final. Until these confirmations occur, your balance may not update to reflect the recent transaction. Give it some time, and your balance should adjust accordingly.
- Network congestion: In periods of high network usage, transactions may take longer to be processed and confirmed. This can delay the updating of your wallet balance. Check the current network status and wait for congestion to subside before expecting to see your updated balance.
-
Wallet resynchronization: If you continue to experience issues with your balance not showing up after allowing for synchronization and transaction confirmation time, you may need to resynchronize your wallet with the Aleo blockchain. This process essentially redownloads and verifies all transactions and blocks to ensure your wallet is in sync with the network state. To do this:
- Open your Aleo wallet application.
- Navigate to the "Settings" menu.
- Look for an "Advanced Settings" click on it.
- Find the "Resync" button and click it.
- Confirm that you want to resync your wallet.
- Wait for the resynchronization process to complete, which may take some time depending on the size of the Aleo blockchain and your network connection.
- Once the resync is finished, check your wallet balance again.
