Thanks for your support, I'll immediately try this out. Will keep you updated!  /Edit: Entering "wallet.storage.put('gap_limit',200)" into the console somehow changes nothing at all - not sure if I'm too stupid to do it correctly, but just typing it into the console and pressing enter seems quite right to me.  Please forgive me my noobishness. //Edit: Maybe I should note that I am using Ubuntu and restoring the seed does not work (I'm getting the same dialogue twice and an error afterwards, I know this is quite a common error) so I'm running Windows 7 in a virtual machine and try to restore my wallet there. But this shouldn't interfere with the restoring of the wallet, right? Again, sorry for my noobish behaviour! You can use Windows but re the ubuntu error you should be able to restore using the command line: electrum -w /path/to/new_wallet_file restore

Nope, not a miner.
Few other ideas: - you are trying to send small amounts. Amounts less than 5430 satoshi. - you are not paying enough transaction fees. |

Hello,
I have problem with this wallet. I try to open a wallet, its start loading but thats it. I tried reinstall but after that its same.
What is the problem can be? I try open as normally, try open run as administrator and still nothing happen.
Delete the file named 'config' in your wallet directory: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Electrum#Wallet_FileCant find any file named ''config'' What version of electrum are you using and what is your operating system? |

Assuming you are using electrum 1.9.8, find the file mnemonic.py and run it with your mnemonic:Run this: It will spit out a hex number. Pass that onto pybitcoin tools and it will tell you the address specific private key which you can import into any wallet: git clone https://github.com/vbuterin/pybitcointools
pybtctool electrum_privkey <seed in hex> <index number> 0
pybtctool electrum_privkey 484ccb566edb66c65dd0fd2e4d90ef65 0 0 #example
If you need to convert between hex encoded private keys and WIF ones just use encode_privkey. So again: pybtctool electrum_privkey f45xxxx...xe3c 0 0 | pybtctool -s encode_privkey wif

Electrum will work on practically any linux distro. You don't even need a GUI.

Backing up both would be better. I am curious as to why the program insists that you save the seed- it seems like that is the last thing I want saved in any form anywhere (except perhaps in my head). Surely a safer solution is to save the encrypted wallet file in various locations?
The rationale is that more people lose bitcoins because they forgot their wallet password or did not make soft copy backups than because they were hacked. So the seed on paper serves as a backup that always works. If you feel you can remember the password then just backup the wallet. |

Are you a miner? This message usually means you have freshly mined coins in your wallet. Those need to be aged the equivalent of 120 confirmations before you can spend them.

You can deposit bitcoin directly in your payza account and get USD credited to it. No need to use an outside party.

Is this in-development version of electrum from github? FYI github master is used for development.

Your transaction has already confirmed. Restart electrum and it will show the correct number of confirmations.
|
|
|
|
|
Tools > create transaction > from csv text
Type like this:
address,amount
address,amount
|
|
|
|
You can use the command line to restore the wallet: For documentation type: electrum help #all commands
electrum help restore #command specific help

If the subsidy varies according to past difficulty changes that would make it harder for miners to predict revenue and plan their investments.
I also don't think it is entirely accurate to say that supply is in-elastic. Production of bitcoins is constant but the number of bitcoins that miners are willing to sell can and does adjust according to price.
Mining is still profitable and that is why difficulty is rising again. The price will continue to decline for some time to come.

Hm, what you are suggesting sound kind of like when you have to study for a test the day before. So lets say you can remember the seed, but for how long? Personally, am very certain I would not remember the seed 2 years later if the wallet was just kept in storage and not used. Perhaps Electrum is just for users that have a very good memory of random things The only "storage" for a brain wallet is your memory. That is the entire idea behind it. If you want to be able to recall it years later you make sure you practice restoring the wallet on a regular basis like say once every 2 weeks or so. That way you'll never forget. If you don't feel you can remember it then it is better to write down the seed on a piece of paper. Note that human generated brain wallet phrases are a bad idea. See what gmaxwell one of the developers of bitcoin core has to say about them: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=311000.msg3345309#msg3345309 |

But does it not defeat the purpose of the brain wallet a bit? Randomness is good, but the sequence of words generated is not that easy to remember since they have no meaning to them. Poems, quotations or even a couple of lines from a book at a specific page/line would be easier to keep in mind as they can be related to. Even if the line was modified with numbers and chars that are not in the original text.
It's not difficult to memorize an electrum seed. The key is repetition: 1. Restore the wallet by manually entering the seed. 2. Delete wallet 3. Repeat until you have the seed down pat. Repeatedly typing in the wallet seed makes it easy to memorize. You also want to test your memory by doing a restore a few days after the original session. If you can still remember the seed and successfully restore the wallet then its time to send some coins to one of the wallet addresses. You can then gradually increase the amount until you are certain you will never forget the seed. |

Such a misleading title. Change it already!
