Title: Did I lost some money or ?
Post by: ahmedoumeri on April 07, 2015, 04:12:43 PM
Hello people,


I am using Electrum on Linux (Ubuntu).

I copied a btc address from Receive tab, so a client will send me 1 btc to it.
I closed the application & turned off the pc.

The client sent me 1 BTC (as I can see on blockchain) but I can't find it in my wallet.

Do you have any idea how to fix this ?

It usually takes quite some time for bitcoin to actually get into your wallet.
Is the transaction confirmed?


If you pasted your valid address, you should be fine, you may need at least 20 minutes though...
Did your client pay the tx fee?

Hello sir,

Yes, you are right, I finally got the coins, it was a delay of the network maybe.

Thank you very much (I only work with QR codes, this prevents me from making mistakes when pasting BTC addresses).

Again, thank you.
