Hello!

This is a question for the larger Electrum community:

I could be wrong but it seems like the following is the scenario:

We gave a receiving address from Electrum to someone to send bitcoin to.

About a week or two later we received confirmation from them that the bitcoin has been sent.

When we got to check the bitcoin address it looks like it is no longer in our wallet.

Does this make sense?  Does Electrum use a revolving wallet?  Is there any way to retrieve the bitcoin from said wallet?

Thank you for reading

Did it arrive in your wallet and later on it was moved somewhere else

Or did it never arrive?

You can re-use addresses in Electrum.
