Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: I have btc in my electrum wallet. How can I send lightning?

If you are not in a hurry, it is better for you to wait until the transaction is confirmed. The problem is that to calculate the transaction fees, the term wallet is useless. You need to specify the number of inputs, outputs and type of addresses. If you tell us the number of Inputs and outputs (how many address in both sides) and type of addresses, we will recommend the best fee for you in exchange for a reasonable waiting time ( Several hours) but the bump fee option will still mean that you will pay more So going by mempool[dot]space not so accurate? Also i was thinking of just sending the funds in lightning if the cost for the transaction from start to finish wont be more than a couple of dollars. It looks like it's at least $13 for btc atm. I realize ill be double sending - with the one that's pending eventually going through.

Quote from: Kruw on November 09, 2023, 03:17:30 PM Nodes are not really going to accept incoming channels for $8, so you are fundamentally limited by the amount you are dealing with. If you want to incorporate Lightning, I recommend Phoenix Wallet on mobile for beginners. Phoenix does not have the best privacy or the lowest fees, but it's extremely user friendly. It's not really $8. That was just an example. How about doing it on Electrum?

Bitcoin / Electrum / I have btc in my electrum wallet. How can I send lightning?

on: November 09, 2023, 03:09:05 PM

So this is the case... I sent some btc from an electrum mobile wallet to another electrum mobile wallet. Reason: I wanted to send a certain amout to a different address but the funds in either of the wallets weren't enough so I wanted to "top up" one of the wallets with enough funds to send the required btc. Example... Electrum wallet 1: $5 worth of btc Electrum wallet 2: $10 worth of btc I want to send to X wallet: $12. So... I sent everything on Electrum wallet 1 ($5 worth of btc) to Electrum wallet 2. So now Electrum wallet 2 has $15 worth of btc. The problem... On Electrum wallet 1 (the sending wallet), I set the transaction fees too low. So it's been unconfirmed for days. To speed up things, I bumped the fee on the receiving wallet (Electrum wallet 2). A child pays for parent transaction. BUT!! The transaction was still stuck for a long time because the fee apparently was still not enough. I bumped the fees 3 times and still no go because the fees keep increasing. I then decided to go ahead and just send $8 to X wallet now and the remaining $4 some other time in the future. BUT!!...the transaction is stuck because...you guessed it...again...low fees. So now I have transactions stuck at multiple fronts. My question... How can I remedy my losses. I could bump up the fee, by a lot, and get my confirmation, but the fees right now are crazy high and much more than I am willing to pay (it wouldn't be worth it). My mistake was that I did not use lightning instead. So... How can I incorporate lightning right now (as a first time user) to recoup my loses in pending transaction fees and get the $8 to X pronto? Appreciate your input!
