What do you mean by " my crypto platform"? Where did you send the USDT from? Are you talking about coinbase non-custodial wallet or their custodial wallet? The crypto network says I need ETH to activate the tokens, but this sounds like a con? Anyone have experience of1 this?
Who is "crypto network"? If your tokens are ERC20 and you are using coinbase non-custodial wallet or any other non-cusodial wallet, you need ETH for spending your tokens. Of course, this doesn't have anything to do with your wallet showing the fiat value of your tokens. |

If I do that, my hashing rate is running about 850TH/s. Not bad, but its a lottery.
I wish you good luck, but you should know that the chance of you mining a block is very low. The total hash rate is now around 390 Ehash/s. This means that you own around 0.0002% of the total hash rate. Assuming that the total hash rate won't change, you will find 1 block every 8.7 years on average. |

As mentioned above by OmegaStarScream, wallet.dat files are for wallets created by bitcoin core.
Anyways, in the case you are talking about a wallet file created by electrum and it's not encrypted, you can open it using a text editor application on your mobile phone and get your seed phrase.
If your wallet file is encrypted, I don't think there's any solution other than opening the wallet using a desktop of version of electrum and export the seed phrase.

All addresses that are displayed on "Addresses" tab are yours and are backed up by your seed phrase. Take note that you will receive the fund even if you use change addresses. And there is no hidden (auto-)refresh of the available green addresses. All green addresses are hard linked to my wallet
and stay alive until I use them.
I am not sure I am understanding you correctly. Your seed phrase always generates the same addresses and you can use any of your addresses as many times as you want. (due to privacy reasons, it's recommended to not reuse addresses) |

The offline wallet should be created on an airgapped device. This means that it should be created on a device which has been always offline and will be never online . Otherwise, it's not a cold wallet. If this reasoning is right, so, does it mean I will need to have a computer (with no internet connection at all, never) only for signing my transactions?
Yes. You need two devices. One should be offline and the other one should be online. Whenever you want to make a transaction, you should create an unsigned transaction using the watch-only wallet on the online device, sign it on the offline device and then broadcast it using the online device. |

Note that not even the checksum can protect you in this case, even though every mnemonic phrase you quoted fails the checksum check.
Only one seed phrase passes the checksum and creates an (unused) Segwit wallet: I think NotATether is talking about BIP39 seed phrases, not seed phrases that are generated by electrum. If that's the case, there are 130 words that can make a 12 word BIP39 seed phrase passing the checksum.

But those who seek the utmost security can go with the way there will be no compromise at all especially those who don't trust the Windows operating system. I forgot to mention that creating seeds offline on a device that they will connect to the internet later still has the risk of exposure to threats so it should be on clean air gapped device.
Right. My point was that electrum generates the seed phrase completely randomly and when it comes to security and randomness of your seed phrase, there is no tool that is " better than electrum". If you generate your seed phrase using electrum on a secure air-gapped device, you are safe enough. If you generate your seed phrase using electrum on an unsafe environment, your wallet wouldn't be secure, but that's not electrum's fault. |

People often choose seed phrases based on memorable words or phrases, but using the same word repeated multiple times is just the dumbest thought I have ever heard.
I don't think so. People usually generate their seed phrase randomly using softwares. I don't think there are many people creating their wallet with choosing the words by themselves. For someone who wants to create seed phrases completely offline and better than Electrum should use an operating system like Tails
With generating your seed phrase offline, you can increase your security, but note that electrum itself is safe enough and generates the seed phrases completely randomly. |

I do know that I can generate the address from the key as is but I tried to import the private key to a wallet and it said that it must be compressed to import?
That's because the wallet you used doesn't support importing uncompressed private keys. You can use electrum to import an uncompressed private key. Take note that the uncompressed format and the compressed format of your private key generate two different addresses. Also, it requires a signature since it's P2PKH. Also, the block reward for mining it suppose to be 50 BTC that generates a new block. So, I also want to mine it if I can.
What? You want to mine a block with the reward of 50 BTC? It seems that you have zero knowledge about bitcoin mining. My guess is that you have a private key and you think that it's associated with an address owning 50 BTC earned as a block reward. Am I right? Where did you get that private key from? If you purchased it, you have been scammed. |

Your transaction will be broadcasted with the fee rate of 10 sat/vbyte.
Take note that with any change in transaction data, the signature becomes invalid and the transaction needs to be signed again. So, if you want to broadcast your transaction with a different fee rate, you should make a new transaction and sign it again.

Did you choose to connect to a specific server? If you did, Electrum doesn't automatically select another server even if you were to check the box to select server automatically.
If you have chosen to connect to a specific server and now you want electrum to select a server automatically, all you need to do is make sure that the "Select server automatically" option has been checked, close electrum and reopen it. If you have connected to a server manually and your wallet is not synced, electrum will select a new server automatically, once you check "Select server automatically" and there is no need to close and reopen electrum. |

While at the same time if one key is LOST, you can still just use the other two keys to generate your actual wallet.
This is not true. If you lose one of the seed phrases and all you have are the two other seed phrases, you wouldn't be able to recover your wallet. For generating your wallet, you will need the master public key derived from the lost seed phrase as well. To avoid such problem, you can save the backups in the way mentioned above by Charles-Tim. |

I have reported many topics containing referral links and if I remember correctly, they all were deleted by moderators. The general rule is that posting referral links is forbidden. In very rare cases, a topic containing referral link may be tolerated and it all depends on moderators decisions. I think the old topic created by 1miau should be helpful. Bitcointalk and reflinks: don't produce refspam, please |

I've a single signature wallet but I heard recently that the multi-signature wallet has more security and that interests me as my stored assets increases.
You can increase your security, if you create your multi-signature wallet in a correct way,. If you are going to create a multi-signature wallet and keep all the seed phrase in one place, you won't increase your security. Create your multi-signature wallet, if you know what exactly your are doing and don't forget to keep all seed phrases and master public keys is safe places. |

Then again the question comes to my mind if someone could create an .onion link/domain with just 1 letter different than the original whirlwind site?
Note that any .onion address is a hash of a public key which is derived from a private key through cryptographic functions and it's not that you can generate any .onion address you want. Of course, you can generate a vanity address with a few known characters (like the one which is used by whirlwind). |

yes, i did via google, but anyway after having the problem
Even if you have downloaded electrum from the correct website, you shouldn't consider your wallet safe and you should no longer use it. I recommend you to format your hard drive and reinstall your operating system. Download electrum from its official website and don't forget to verify your download. Seems you downloaded a fake Electrum at the process of updating it from the Google play store.
This is not possible. Play store is used for downloading Android's applications and according to the image shared by OP, he/she is using the desktop version of electrum. |

When those first 20 addresses are used, Electrum generates the next batch of 20 addresses, and so on.
This is not true. It's not that electrum generates new addresses after all first 20 addresses are used. Electrum generates the 21st address once you use the first address, the 22nd address, once you use the second address and so on. |
|
|
|
So if I increased the gap limit and used all those extra addresses, then restored the wallet afresh, those extra addresses would not show. Would electrum be able to spend from them or only once I increased the gap limit.to let electrum know about them.
It depends. As I already said, the default gap limit on electrum is 20. If you have used the 21st address without using the first 20 addresses, electrum wouldn't show the transaction history of the address 21, unless you increase the gap limit. Electrum starts from the first address, checks the transaction history of your addresses one by one and it stops once it sees 20 consecutive unused addresses. Take note that your seed phrase generates numerous addresses and it's impossible for electrum to check them all. |
