If the amount is made up of lots of very small inputs like from faucets then the resulting transaction will be very large and that's why you have such a large fee. In bitcoin the size of the transaction in bytes is what matters not the amount being transferred. Lots of inputs make for a large transaction.

restore your 2fa wallet from seed, don't set a password so that it doesn't encrypt the xprvs and then view the wallet file in nano, vi, or some other text editor. then restore your multisig wallet using those xprvs. file > new/restore, enter a meaningful name like multisig-restore-20171031, wallet type multisig, select the number of cosigners (2?) and the number of sigs (1?), then for each cosigner select use public or private keys and enter the xprv one at a time. after that you should be able to spend your bitcoins to another wallet of your choice. for example a new standard electrum wallet (file>new/restore again).

This appears to be a segwit transaction. I think that's why it doesn't show up in your wallet. Electrum will have support for segwit in the next version 3.0. You have to wait until then.

I created a watch-only wallet with two addresses from that transaction and the amounts show up correctly. I don't see why it doesn't work for you. Once again is the address listed on the addresses tab? It could be a case of compressed address vs. uncompressed address and electrum is only seeing one of those.
Thanks for looking into this as well, here is a screenshot of my electrum addresses page with the relevant address: It's 100% the same address  It's showing up as a used address so that means Electrum is seeing the transaction. So what's the problem? |

open your restored 2fa wallet in electrum and then go to wallet menu > password. Remove your password by entering the current password and leaving the new and confirm password fields blank. Then when you view the wallet file it'll show the unencrypted xprv.

If you enter the current GAuth code, you can just continue using it... However, If you reset it, then you'll be given a new 2FA secret key which you must enter and sync up with Google Authenticator App and use for all future transactions... The old one will no longer work, as TrustedCoin will have changed the matching key on their end.
..... The old one will no longer work, as TrustedCoin will have changed the matching key on their end.
OK, thank you, thats what I wanted to know! Hello this is incorrect. In my experience trusted coin will show you the same key it showed you before. You can try it yourself. Create a 2fa wallet and then restore it from seed. You will be shown the same TOTP shared secret you were originally given. Anyone with access to your old wallet file and the google authenticator app on your lost phone can spend your bitcoins! |

Unless it is deleted itself (which of course I don't believe it) I didn't touch a thing. But maybe because of all those unexpected shut downs I did until I found the best overclock settings for my GPU-s may have done something to it. Really strange happening but I left a considerable amount to this wallet for almost 24 hours now and no movements so I believe I am safe.
Yep computer crashes can cause file system corruption. You should run scan disk on your file system just in case. |

trustedcoin shows you the same 2fa key that you originally got. if some else has that 2fa key and a copy of your wallet file then they can still spend from your wallet. you should create a new wallet and move your coins to that. you can begin the process with file menu > new/restore, enter a name for the new wallet file and then continue as per on-screen instructions. to open a different wallet file in future use file > open.

I just opened Electrum wallet to accelerate a transaction (yes Coinbet24 is not to be that trusted anymore, the 5th time they send with a low fee notable with a yellow exclamation mark on Electrum) and I noticed that Electrum asked me to choose AutoConnect and I did choose it. Then when I clicked on view on block explorer it pointed me not to blockchain.info where it usually does but to blocktrail.com . Also the appearance was in mBTC and I changed it back to BTC.
Is this some kind of automatic update or should I worry ?
This happens when your config file is deleted and it resets to defaults. Your config file is in your electrum data directory which is one level up from your wallet directory: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/faq.html#where-is-my-wallet-file-located |

The master public key (MPK) can be used to generate all your addresses. If someone has the master public key they can view all the addresses, transactions and balance of your wallet so you must not share your MPK with anyone. Legitimate uses of an MPK are for a user to create a watch-only version of his own wallet and to install his MPK on his webserver so that it can derive addresses for use on his ecommerce website. An address is just a single lock box of many lock boxes where people can deposit money they want you to have. Your wallet keeps track of all your addresses and can spend money sent to any of them. Ideally you use a different address for every transaction. Related: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Coin_analogy |

So Electrum docs say to move your coins to a new wallet before splitting using the private keys of the old wallet. How do I do that? I've already created a new wallet. If I use a regular network transaction I have to pay fees. There has to be a way to do this from withing Electrum.
there is none. you have to do it on-chain and bear the cost of the fees. |

1. Provide a unique file name for your new wallet. Something meaningful like restored-wallet-2017-10-27 . 2. a) Don't use the bip39 option. That is not for you. If the next button is greyed out then that means your seed is incorrect. How many words does your seed have? It should have 12 words. 2. b) The list of words you were provided before is not relevant to your old seed. Instead check this list below and make sure that all the words in your seed are present and spelled correctly: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/master/lib/old_mnemonic.pyIf you have words that are not on the old list then what you have there is not an electrum seed. |

try `sudo apt-get remove electrum` also apt-get install python-pip installs pip2 so you've done that already. the next step is to run `sudo pip2 install <electrum tar file>` You don't untar the tarball (tar file). You run pip2 on it directly. You may also have to install python-setuptools (sudo apt-get install python-setuptools) first. I feared to do this, since I tried to sweep the wallet into a new wallet version a couple of times unsuccessfully ('no inputs' was a message that came up). You can't sweep multisig addresses BTW. |

If you view your restored 2fa wallet using a text editor like nano you will find the xprvs for 2 out of the 3 keys that make up your 2fa wallet. You will also see the corresponding xpubs. Since you know which xpubs make up your multisig wallet all you have to do is view the 2fa wallet file and copy the corresponding xprvs. You can then restore your multisig wallet using those xprvs and sign your transaction. The location of your wallet files is ~/.electrum/wallets/ I've attached a snippet of what you should be looking for: https://pastebin.com/11vsUuRfAlso update to the latest version of electrum i.e. 2.9.3 on your linux PC too. Otherwise you will face all sorts of problems. If you installed electrum using your distro's repos then first backup your wallet files, uninstall electrum using your package manager and then install the latest version using pip2 as per the instructions on electrum.org/#download. You can't rely on your distro's repos for electrum. It updates far too frequently for that. You have to install using pip2. In future updating will be the same as installing the latest version. |

I have trouble understanding you. Maybe ask someone who is fluent in English to post on your behalf?

Could be a blockchain.info uuid. Not sure whether bc.i was there in 2011.
How come you don't know what it is? Is it your wallet or someone else's?

This is all very confusing. Only thing I can say is that the last co-signer of a 2fa wallet is usually trusted coin so you won't get the xprv of cosigner 3 if that's what you need.
