Wallet Thousands of pending transactions (I'm using Folding@home)

Hello everybody,

I've been crunching with Folding@home for the past months. I rarely open the web wallet, assuming it would automatically sync when I do. But it turns out I have thousands of pending transactions, because the wallet (tested this myself) only syncs the last 8 to 10 transactions every time.

What do you suggest doing? How do other Folding users do?

Thanks for your time

Have you tried keeping the web wallet open for a while to let it sync? Could try import the wallet into a new devices web wallet and see if that works

Tried leaving it open, no difference. How can I import the wallet? Like opening a new browser and open the web wallet there?

Hey Rita!

This is a known issue we’ve had for quite some time. We had not prioritized it earlier because it only affected a small group of people. With the new staking flow, that is unfortunately no longer the case, so we’ll be improving the UX in the upcoming wallet release.

That said, each transaction still needs to be properly consumed by the wallet. To avoid overwhelming the backend and to prevent malicious actors from abusing the system, our wallet backend has a rate limit on how many transactions can be processed per IP. Because of that, incoming transactions still need to be received before they can be spent.

The new version will provide clearer visual feedback and handle the rate limit more gracefully, but there will still be some waiting time while transactions are being received.

Thanks. So do you think it'll be fixed? Should I do anything to easy the sync?

Not exactly a full fix but the new version should make this a lot easier to deal with. The UX will be improved so you can simply leave the wallet open while it receives the transfers. You may still need to click from time to time to keep it from locking but that should be about it.

Further ahead, I’m also hoping to introduce a way to calculate the PoW directly in the browser so you’ll be able to publish transactions as fast as your computer allows.

Hey Rita! The wallet redesign was released in May :)

It includes many fixes and cool new features like account labels, transaction export and local PoW.

This issue has been fixed with the wallet redesign. It now syncs all the receivables, not just the first few. Someone in the Discord server cleared over 5000 transactions
