Payment problem with electrum!!

[giammangiato]

But i tried to send a payment on a ptc platform, after submitting the payment request tells me that i have no funds to complete.
The funds are there and I do not understand what the problem is, use it as an "electrum" wallet, until now I only accumulated satoshi, now I wanted to try to use to invest on a "serious" thing, if you have some advice or help to give me grateful

My first guess is that you're trying to spend more than you have after the transaction fee is applied. The easiest, if you want to send the maximum possible amount, is to type a "!" in the amount field, then electrum will automatically adjust the spend to the highest possible amount after fees.

You'd need to post a screenshot if that doesn't help.

...until now I only accumulated satoshi...

Have you been collecting a lot of small payments from faucets?  If so, it is likely that the data size of the transaction is very large (even if the value of the transaction is low) and Electrum is trying to use a large fee to pay for it, based on the current "average" fees...

DannyHamilton wrote a really good summary of exactly how this all works here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1882413.msg18710514#msg18710514

If this is the case, you may need to go in to preferences and use the "edit fee manually" option, so you can specify a flat fee (hopefully you can make it more than 10 satoshi/byte, then you can use the ViaBTC TX Accelerator to get it confirmed, because if the fee is too low, you transaction make take days to confirm.)

However, without knowing how many transactions you've received, or the size of them... and how much you're trying to send... it is difficult to tell exactly what is wrong.

Some screenshots and/or addresses managed by your wallet might help to get an idear of the problem, altough previous posters are probably right... If i had to take a wild guess, i would also say that chances are pretty high you're trying to use dozens of inputs to create an output...
