Title: [Electreum] Add an existing bitcoin adress
Post by: dapuretu on October 19, 2016, 08:14:13 PM
Hi,

I begin with bitcoin. I have first say to kraken I want to transfer bitcoins to an adress created with https://www.bitaddress.org
But now I cannot send these bitcoins !
They are on this account but I cannot manage it

I have download electreum an I want to associate this account (or transfer these bitcoins on an account created by electreum) but I do not see where I can add an account (and I think I cannot)
I have just a public and a private key given by https://www.bitaddress.org what can I do to manage these bitcoins ?

Thank you

Do you want to transfer your bitcoin from bitaddress to electrum? If so, in electrum highlight the wallet tab then private keys and click sweep. In the next window put your private key and your wallet addy and then click sweep. That's all I know! sorry if it doesnt solve your problem!
