1001  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Fixes on: July 14, 2023, 04:52:57 PM
That's help a lot, but the developer has not made that function obvious with everything in white text.
You are right. That has been designed very badly.
If you update your electrum to version 4.4.0 or versions after that, you will see that the UI has been designed much better, however it still lacks many features of the desktop version.


Instead of using manual/static, I suggest use mempool and always set it to 1mb below from the tip to avoid stuck transactions.
It's not a good idea to always set the target to 1 MB from the tip. Sometimes, you are not in hurry and you can save some amount of bitcoin with paying lower fees.
And whether you are in hurry or not, it would be better to check the mempool yourself and not only rely on electrum's estimation.
1002  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Fixes on: July 14, 2023, 12:41:10 PM
I sent a small bitcoin payment to test a wallet and the minimum slider fee was much higher than medium or higher fee on the mempool.  There is no manual option to set the miner fee on the Android version of Electrum.
You can't set the fee rate manually on android version of electrum, but you can change the fee estimation method to static and set the fee rate to 1, 2, 5,10,.... sat/vbyte.


Also another option I would like is setting to be at GBP rather than sats on the pay/amount screen as it gets very annoying having to switch every time I make a payment.  A settings option to toggle this would be good.
Tap on the circle located at top right corner of the screen and go to "Preferences". Enable "Fiat Currency" and set the currency to GBP.

I well know that security depends on us and how we set up the wallet be it a non custodial wallet or bitcoin core.
Take note it's not that bitcoin core and non-constodial wallets are two different categories of wallets.
Any wallet that gives us full access to our private keys is called a non-custodial wallet. This means that bitcoin core is also a non-custodial wallet.

proof of work is a term used to describe the competition between miners as they all want to be the one to gain the block reward by adding to the block chain the latest block containing all those recent transaction, and to do so they all compete to be the first one to essentially guess a random number
Every block has a size limit and it's not that miners put all recent transactions in the new block. Miners can include up to 4 million weight units or 1 vMB of data in a block and they are free to choose any of the (valid) transactions they want from their mempool. They usually prioritize transactions based on their fee rate to maximize their profit.
1005  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to check I have the seeds of my multisig 2/3 on: July 12, 2023, 12:02:26 PM
Make sure to back up your 3 xpubs as well. In case you lose one of your seeds, if you don't have all the 3 xpubs, you will not  be able to recover your keys, even if 2 out of 3 seeds are needed to sign transactions.
To be more accurate, if you lose one of the seed phrases, you will need the master public key associated with the lost seed phrase to recover your wallet. You won't need all three master public keys. Two of them can be derived from the two existing seed phrases.

To recover you wallet and spend fund from that, you will need:

Seed A, Seed B, MPK C
or
Seed B, Seed C, MPK A
or
Seed A, Seed C, MPK B

(MPK = Master public key)

How about if I have a paper wallet with .005 btc, assuming it was funded with 5 separate transactions of .001
That's almost the same: the transaction will be almost 5 times larger, and so will the fee. You should read Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs!.
Just to be more accurate:
If sending address(es) are legacy, the fee would be around 4 times bigger.
If sending address(es) are nested segwit, the fee would be around 3.7 times bigger.
If sending address(es) are native segwit, the fee would be around 3.5 times bigger.

I assumed that there is no change address and there's exactly 1 output.

1. You have no right to question the judgement of the moderators.
I don't think there is anything wrong with OP asking why his/her post has been deleted. This can help OP to avoid the same mistake in the future.
In my opinion, moderators have made a correct decision here, but they are human and it's possible that they make mistake.


2. You cannot reverse their judgement or ask why your post is deleted
As far as I remember, there have been cases in which deleted posts were recovered. Of course, that won't happen to OP's deleted post.
1008  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to check I have the seeds of my multisig 2/3 on: July 11, 2023, 02:18:38 PM
Last few bytes are checksum and there is a fixed number of words in Electrum wordlist.
Since OP has generated the seed phrases using electrum and they are not BIP39, the checksum isn't the last few bytes.
Instead of having a checksum in the way a BIP39 seed phrase is generated, electrum hashes the words and then checks if the result matches any of the correct versions numbers.
1009  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to check I have the seeds of my multisig 2/3 on: July 11, 2023, 10:07:50 AM
You may want to make a transaction to see a how a multi-signature wallet works, but if you only want to check if you have written down the seed phrases correctly, there is no need to make a transaction.
Just create a new 2 of 3 multi-signature wallet using the three seed phrases you have. If electrum generates the correct addresses, it means that you have written down the seed phrases correctly.

What type of address are you using?
As you worry about transaction fee, it may worth mentioning that you should use segwit addresses, so that you can make cheaper transactions.

A legacy transaction including 1 input and 1 output has the (virtual) size of around 190 vbytes and it would decrease to around 110 vbytes, if you use segwit addresses.
A legacy transaction including 5 input and 1 output has the (virtual) size of around 780 vbytes and it would decrease to around 380 vbytes, if you use segwit addresses.

You have a (multi-sig) HD wallet and you spent the fund that you had received from binance. Am I getting you correctly?
Did you use coin control? If you didn't use coin control and you used multiple UTXOs in a single transaction, now all those coins are linked together.

Such tools need to scrap the posts and the issue is because currently cloudfare doesn't allow anyone to scrape the posts.
For more information, read the posts made by LoyceV and TryNinja in another thread.


Cloudflare on the forum is blocking scrapers, mine can't do anything either Sad
Once in a while Cloudflare goes into impossible-mode. To test: visit the forum in a private browser window, if you see Cloudflare, scrapers won't work.

Forum was extra slow today (DDoS?) and cloudflare went full paranoid mode, like LoyceV said. Nothing I can do. Tongue

Posting referrals links is forbidden, even if it's a legitimate service.
I just reported the post including referral link and I am sure it will be deleted soon.

Edit:
The post including referral link was just deleted by moderators.

1016  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Private key of BTC wallet on: July 09, 2023, 06:38:23 PM
maybe I can help him or maybe not. and it is not lure. really I do not understand:)
No one will be able to help OP find the private key and Cricktor is completely right. OP posting his/her BTC address will be also useless.
No offence but, does it make any difference how much bitcoin OP has? Does it matter whether OP has 1 mBTC or 100 BTC? How can knowing OP's BTC be helpful? Does OP's bitcoin address give us any information about its private key?
1017  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can I make cold wallet off line and has the ability to consolidate the utxo on: July 08, 2023, 10:05:51 PM
If this is indeed what OP is asking about then the solution you suggested should work. However, although it might be the cheapest solution I don't think it's the safest one since you need to expose the offline wallet's private keys.
No. The private keys of the cold wallet will remain offline.
OP should use the private keys of the hot wallet and the cold wallet to create a new wallet on the offline device. He/she should also create a new watch-only wallet using addresses of those wallets.
1018  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can I make cold wallet off line and has the ability to consolidate the utxo on: July 08, 2023, 06:11:36 PM
I think I understand what OP is asking.
I reread OP's post and I think you are right.

I have never thought about it and would be interested how that would work myself.
OP can create a new watch-only wallet using funded addresses of wallet 1 and wallet 2 and a new wallet on the offline device using their private keys.
After that, he/she can simply create an unsigned transaction on the online device and sign it on the offline device. In this way, the transaction can be made without private keys of the cold wallet connecting to the internet.
1019  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Bitcoin Core as main wallet on: July 07, 2023, 10:20:58 PM
Is it bad idea to use Bitcoin Core for the main wallet? I don't trust any online exchanges, that require my private keys.
Not at all.
With using bitcoin core, you have full control over your fund and as you run you own node, you can protect your privacy. You can also help the network with validating transactions.
But take note that even if you don't use bitcoin core, there are still many wallets that give you full control over your fund and you don't have to keep your bitcoin on exchanges.
1020  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can I make cold wallet off line and has the ability to consolidate the utxo on: July 07, 2023, 09:09:25 PM
Can I arrange for utx consolidation? As if I want send fund from my cold off line wallet I make  signing on cold wallet then I sign on watch only wallet , could be possible to consolidate utxo as same way
You don't sign the transaction on your watch-only wallet. Your watch-only wallet doesn't contain any private key and it can't sign transactions at all.
You should use your online device (which you have your watch-only wallet on) for creating the unsigned transaction and broadcasting the singed tranaction.

And it doesn't matter whether you are consolidating your UTXOs or you are making a payment.
