If you have your seed words you will definitely be able to restore your wallet.  You will not need to remember your password.  The only way this will not work is if you added an extension to your seed words, and did not include that extension in your backup, or you forgot that extension.

Here's the step by step to restore your wallet using the seed words:

Open Electrum and click File>New/Restore, then click Next.  
Select "Standard Wallet" and click Next.
Select "I already have a seed" and click Next.




On the "Enter Seed" page enter your seed phrase, then click on the Options button:




When the Options dialog comes up, select BIP39 seed (and Extend if applicable.)




And last, choose one of these three options.  If it doesn't work at first, repeat the above steps, and choose a different option, keep trying until you've tried all three options.  One is bound to work.

There are so many acronyms in life, and in the crypto sphere with new altcoins popping up all the time, and all the bitcoin forks and forks of forks...  Things get confusing.  I'm resigned to typing out the whole thing: bitcointalk.org.

My electricity is too expensive.  I have a set of solar panels that are not hooked up yet, so I'm going to hold off on Grin until that's settled.  I can still earn a little bit while mining ETH, so that's where my rig is pointing now. 

Thule vs. the world, with CH as the top cheerleader.  I think I just visualized the next Bitcointalk feature length movie trilogy.  Just don't turn the dark side.

Making one post in an airdrop thread won't get you banned, I know because I've made that mistake myself.  I could see that account being banned for spamming the forum, but odds are it's because the account continued to promote the airdrop.

I only spent a little time looking, but I didn't see any plagiarism.  If he was banned for that post linked above, I think it should be reversed.  I think we'll have to wait for the moderator that banned him to know for sure.

The MSM has been the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party for decades, and it's never been more obvious than it is now.  Trump is exposing all the corruption in that industry.

One of the most hilarious and ironic events of recent days: Jeff Zucker winning the First Amendment Award.  Nobody even watches CNN anymore, they have zero credibility and would be the fist to squash dissenting points of view.

I've never used changelly, but ShapeShift used to be anonymous.  Now ShapeShift requires some KYC information.  Since they are merely middle-men between you and the full-blown exchanges, charging you middle-men fees as well as the fees the exchange is charging, I don't know why anybody would use them.  

If you have to submit KYC anyway might as well register to a full featured exchange, control your buy and sell orders yourself, and save money on fees.  

I'll keep looking for a connection between someone I'm trusting the account in question.  I realize you compile your list manually and there's some delay.  I've found it very helpful, it's much appreciated.  


ETA:
I found the connection, I guess I didn't realize the depth of trusted users.

I've been keeping up my custom trust list, using LoyceV's list to assess the entries, and selectively modify my list to keep it trim yet effective.  I recently removed some of my ~distrusted entries because I realized their inclusion has no effect on my desired results.  However, I noticed an anomaly, specifically with one user account: MoneypakTrader.com.

If I'm understanding the new trust system correctly MoneypakTrader.com should not be DT2, however it appears that he is.  My list does not include any users who have included MoneypakTrader.com in their custom list, and MoneypakTrader.com is not included by any DT1 members that I know of, yet if I remove <~MoneypakTrader.com> from my list the accounts review show as trusted reviews.

Am I the only one with this issue?  I might be mistaken about how the system is supposed to work, and missing something.  Any thoughts?

I remember the thread where you earned your first red tag from hilariousandco, and at the time I thought you were pushing a little hard to be accepted by this community.  I didn't think anything of it, because I wasn't aware how scrutinous one really needed to be to avoid being scammed on this forum.  At first I thought hilariousandco was being a bit harsh, but now I realize he was trying to warn the community to be careful, extremely careful.

Since that thread, I've come to believe that you are an attention seeker.  Not in the way of a troll, but more in the way of a jealous child.  Starting yet another self-reputation thread doesn't shake that belief.  It's been my observation that those who complain about all the drama they have in their lives are directly responsible for the existence of that drama.  

Just out of curiosity, which account did TalkStar accuse you of owning?

It would help to know the OS you're using and the version of Electrum.   I've had the same issue with Ubuntu in the past, but it's been a while.  I've never had the issue come up on windows.


This is the resolution I used to fix the problem on Ubuntu.

Whether you're on DT or not, be confident and accurate in the feedback you leave for others.  If you are unsure it's better to not leave the feedback at all.  If you're going to call someone a scammer, be prepared to defend your accusation.  Pretend you're the one who will be put on trial to prove the accusation.  If you aren't 100% confident the evidence that you or others have presented supports your claims then don't make those claims.

The amount of posts you have should have nothing to do with it, use better judgement and you'll be fine.   

Wouldn't it be more secure to process updates through the software it's self, rather than rely on users going to the right website for download checking signatures?  Is that something the dev team is planning for future releases?

@everyone monitoring this thread:

If you want this terrorist to fail in his attempt to destroy the gains we've made in the realm of racism and bigotry, then do the exact opposite of what he wishes for.

If you're Christian, go to Mosque on Friday, and a Synagogue on Saturday.  If you're Muslim, go to a Synagogue on Saturday, and a Church on Sunday.  If you're Jewish go to a Mosque on Friday and Church on Sunday.  Introduce yourself to the congregation, tell them how you're presence is a protest to the hatred and bigotry some would have us cultivate as a result of this tragedy.

The sig file has to have the exact same name as the executable file with .asc as the final extension.  
So, just like this:



If you go to the download page on electrum.org, near the top of the page there's link to ThomasV's public key hosted on gnupg.net.
Look for the text "Sources and executables are signed by ThomasV," and click on the link.  It'll take you to this page:
http://keys.gnupg.net/pks/lookup?search=0x6694D8DE7BE8EE5631BED9502BD5824B7F9470E6&fingerprint=on&op=index

I've seen Animazing@gmail.com included in ThomasV's public key, so I don't think there's anything wrong there.

It's also fair to point out the OP has an outstanding loan.

I prefer Metal Meritocrocy, they've got that grungy beat thing going, and you can dance to it.



Have patience, it's only two more weeks of waiting.  

That's bound to leave a mark...

A brown skid-mark on those pretty pink stolen panties!

You don't need my help, you seem to have no trouble proving yourself wrong.  You're a proven liar, hypocrite, and now you can add attempted extortionist to the list of character traits.  Here you are attempting to tarnish the reputation of a campaign manager as retaliation for denying you a spot on one of his campaigns.

If you have trouble with a casino operating without license, why are attacking one their employees?  Why don't you contact the authorities to investigate the legality of their operation?
