You can request the feature on github issues: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues . I for one think it is a valid use case for rbf transactions.

If you could print money wouldn't you? That's why there are so many. You spend some money roping people in to your newly minted cryptocurrency, getting the price pumping and then dump it on them. That's why they make them.

Stick with bitcoin only. Not bitcoin cash or some other pretender.

It depends on the routing table of your operating system.

To all the regulars here I'd like to point out that Electrum now has a debug log option under tools > preferences  > general tab. In future in situations like these please advise users to turn that on and pastebin the log files. They can found in the electrum data dir.

Bitcoin core doesn't use bip44.


Using an xpriv backup with the same wallet software i.e. bitcoin core is hard to do. So if it's hard to do it with the same software it's even harder with a different one. For example I know of no software that uses the same derivation path as bitcoin core.

The xprv doesn't include all the information you need to restore the wallet. It doesn't tell you what derivation path was used or what script types were used i.e. whether you created p2pkh, p2wpkh etc. addresses. It doesn't tell you how many addresses you generated. And if you used addresses from imported private keys or pre-HD bitcoin core then those private keys can't be restored using the xprv.

1 sat/byte might result in your transaction getting stuck during high demand times. so you should rely on the slider instead. the further to the left the lower the fee and the slower the confirmation times.

bitcoin is not a bank

That's a false positive

You installed malware:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Electrum/comments/brvsmv/333_danger_vulnerable_to_phishing_please_always/

You can reveal the private key as part of the signature in a way that only the attacker can calculate. You can do this gradually  over many transactions. So airgapping doesn't stop malware in the offline system from stealing your keys.

You can update electrum on tails as per this guide: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/tails.html

You can make a backup of the wallet file via file menu > save copy or by copying the file on disk. You will still need the password to spend the coins though.

Did you really mean 200 btc or 200 mbtc? 200 btc = nearly $2 million at current prices.

you can't since it was packaged by the tails developers. so if you trust the tails developers you can verify the gpg sig of the ISO file you downloaded against their signing key.

note that the version of electrum they include with tails is obsolete so you can no longer use it. you will have to update: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/tails.html

See here. Come back with a tx id if nothing there works.

It is entirely possible to do what you want. You can have many outputs in a transaction and those outputs can be to the same address or different addresses. However sending multiple outputs to the same address will cost you more in transaction fees than if you sent just one output so the question is why do you want to do that? Essentially transaction fees, what you call commission, is payment for space on the blockchain. More outputs = larger transaction in bytes = higher transaction fees.

try the following command:


if the above command works create a shortcut to that executable file on your desktop. ~ = home directory here.

how did you resolve this issue? it helps if you let us know what works because that serves as documentation for other users in your position.

i advise against doing this. this will make it more complicated when restoring the wallet from seed in the future. most users will forget these extra steps. there's also no protection from mistyping the seed mnemonic. so overall you cannot rely on seed backups anymore and will have to take a softcopy backup of the wallet file.

just create a standard electrum wallet with a fresh electrum generated seed. here's a guide in case the op needs it.

I don't think you understand the unique features of bitcoin. There are many electronic payment systems like paypal, western union, swift and IBFT. What makes bitcoin unique is that it is decentralized so it doesn't have to follow the rules set by governments, it is open to anyone anywhere in the world and it is uncensorable. Any centralized cryptocurrency will be just another paypal, western union etc. It's never ever going to be able to compete with bitcoin.

Regulators around the world are already very wary of libra. They will impose so many conditions on Libra that it'll become just another centralized payment system. It'll work in some countries and not others. The features available to users will vary from country to country. There will be strict KYC. Payments will be censored and accounts will be frozen. The fees will be high because the consortium members have to protect their traditional payments business. In other words it's the same old same old.

The other problem with Libra is that there is no reason for users to adopt it. Remember adoption requires jumping through documentation steps. It is going to be a pain in the ass. With bitcoin the rising price is the incentive that drives adoption. There is no such incentive for Libra users.

I'd also like to point out that they have said they are not launching in india. They have not said that they are not launching in Pakistan. They may or may not launch here. I know it's hard but we must stick to the facts.

you should update the mycelium app on your phone.
