0.12 getbalance behavior #7597

Is this correct behavior?

$ ~/bitcoin/src/bitcoin-cli getbalance
6.60409702

$ ~/bitcoin/src/bitcoin-cli getbalance "*" 0
-13.05526813

$ ~/bitcoin/src/bitcoin-cli getbalance "*" 1
-13.05578512

As i understood from documentation, getbalance == getbalance "*" 1

Do you have WatchOnly addresses? getbalance should return the same as getbalance "*" 1 true, although, internal two code-paths are used for the calculation. There could be a bug/difference.

Sorry, since it was issue on a production server, i've rolled back to 0.11.2 with -reindex. I'm not going to be able to run getbalance "*" 1 true at the moment.

I think this issue was already in 0.8 or even earlier. I can't check right now, though.

8.13576857
$ ~/bitcoin/src/bitcoin-cli getbalance "*" 0
8.13576857
$ ~/bitcoin/src/bitcoin-cli getbalance "*" 1
