Title: What to write into blockchain.info to see balance of Electrum wallet? Please
Post by: Roccker on August 07, 2017, 11:46:40 AM
Sorry for the newb question: (i did 10min google search), a little tip greatly greatly appreciated

How to look up btc or bch on the blockchain of a wallet i generated with electrum?:
I did:
1. In Electrum, went to Wallet, then 'Master public keys'
Then there are 3 cosigner, each with a key
2. Take first of the keys (starting with xpub) and copy it
3. Fill it in on blockchair or blockdozer -> both 'no matching records found'

Second try:
1. Go to the 'Receive', copy the 'receiving adress'
2. Put that adress into blockdozer -> says 0 bcc, 0 transactions
Blockchair somehow finds nothing in bitcoin or bitcoin cash


Put bitcoins in adress at 31.7, 17:00h, put them out again at 2.8, 11:00h - these were times electrum shows me -> are the times right for having BCC in this wallet?

Correct me if I'm wrong, I was confused on your explanation and methods.

If you only meant to see what's on the balance on a certain electrum wallet address on blockchain.info's explorer

Just go to the search feature and paste your wallet address there and voila you can see the balance now.

You can modify this link https://blockchain.info/address/xxxxxxxxxxxx on the 'x' part paste the address you want to see the balance.

Go to the "Coins" tab in Electrum. If you don't see a Coins tab, look under the "Wallet" drop-down menu. (This is on a Mac, should be the same/similar on Windows too) You will find your coins listed there with the addresses and balances.

Ok, thanks.. i found the 'coins' button, but it is just blank, there is nothing there

There are no bitcoins there anymore, that's clear. But on my adress there should be bitcoin cash.
But: I don't even find out what the adress of my electrum wallet is..

Here: I had bitcoins in my wallet on 2017-07-31 and removed them at 2017-08-02
So bitcoin cash should be there, should it

You will not see any Bitcoin Cash/BCH  in Electrum only regular Bitcoin/BTC. You have no BTC in your Electrum wallet, as you seem to have moved it all out on Aug 2; so you will see nothing under Coins.

That said, if you click on the "Addresses" tab, you will see the addresses that you can right-click on and select the option to explore on the blockchain. The wallet itself has no "address" - the wallet contains the addresses that hold/contain coins. HTH

EDIT: Sorry - right-click on the transaction in the History tab and check "Details" - you will find the address under "input" - take that and look it up on a blockchain explorer if you know where one is. Blockchain.info will only give BTC balance which will be 0 since you moved it out of there. Google 'BCH blockchain explore' And post here please if you find one where it works....

Just FYI, the only BCH explorers that I have found so far are:

Blockdozer: http://blockdozer.com/insight/
Blockchair: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash/blocks
BitInfoCharts: https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/explorer/


And a wee tip about the "Addresses" tab in Electrum (and possibly Electron Cash as well)... you may need to expand the "Used" section to see the Address(es) involved in transactions... click the ">" symbol so it becomes a "v" and you should see the addresses you're after ;)
