EDIT2: The answer is yes... the Windows binaries appear to function the same ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJaFsDAX.png&t=665&c=eOyyJHOwzdXq0Q) How? Did you recompile them that includes "libsecp256k1-dev" for Windows? If ever please give me another copy let me test it on Windows 7 if it will work. I can't find the lightning option in wallet>information>lightning so maybe it will appear if it includes the "libsecp256k1" additional file.

Yeah... once "libsecp256k1-dev" was installed on Ubuntu, after recompiling with build-wine, the Windows binaries automagically include everything required. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I've PM'd you the link to the new version. Seems to be working OK (at least on TestNet): ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F11%2F15%2FzL2QZ.png&t=665&c=7trPO2d1B8YUZQ) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F11%2F15%2FzLUY8.png&t=665&c=ksw-OGN7_83OSg)

OMG it works ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FOxaA6tF.png&t=665&c=b4Ht5Rmkcr2ToA) But the weird thing is that the old one(The file that you sent to me a few days ago) the lightning button appears but when trying to click it doesn't work unlike the one that includes the "libsecp256k1". ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F595UCSN.png%3F3&t=665&c=u09Y771Ruxprsw) Edit: Weird, Now both of them works. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F7B3LmiU.png&t=665&c=VwTEIQdcBKA-aw) I'm going to test it on BTCpay in testnet mode.

Also, don't be alarmed if you get a "KeyError" when you receive a payment (and/or open a channel)... It seems to be a known (and fixed) issue, and doesn't seem to actually affect the receiving of the payments. They still show up. If I get brave enough, I'll try and see what happens if I run it on MainNet ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Once I finally got past the other issues I was having, the software seems to be working fine. Seems to be working OK (at least on TestNet): Did you have to run the installer file to get on Testnet? I don't see that as an option with the portable exe.
I'm liking the new version, the gui updates are cool. The main page now includes a field for your password if you're opening an existing wallet file. Seems more streamlined, less clicking involved. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2F423SwRF%2FUntitled1.jpg&t=665&c=S0aYRkeCfxWtgg)

No, nothing complicated like that... it's a simple "--testnet" command line argument... you can do it by creating a shortcut. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F11%2F15%2Fz1lWf.png&t=665&c=674BJrbdeddHpA)

No, nothing complicated like that... it's a simple "--testnet" command line argument... you can do it by creating a shortcut. And it works with the portable version too, I use that pretty often. I usually have a batch file (run.bat) with the content: electrum-3.3.8-portable.exe --testnet in the same folder as electrum-3.3.8-portable.exe

Just use the source code from github and compile yourself. The alpha updates are merged regularly. It's not stable yet though, use with caution. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum

Or, if you don't want to compile yourself, you can use a virtual machine to try Electrum LN. Some time ago, I also tried (on a parallels desktop) to use the Testnet version and transact using the lightning network in Electrum.

It's not stable yet though, use with caution. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrumThere's no need to compile anything in Linux. As long as Python is up to date, and you have all the dependencies installed Electrum will run right from source. Download the source code, browse to the directory where you saved it and run the following command: python3 /electrum_master/electrum/run_electrum

This thread is about the alpha release of the next version of Electrum, and it's new Lightning Network capabilities. You're question is off-topic, so I suggest you find a thread that already discusses beginner questions or start a new thread to ask your question. Also, there's a lot information in the official documentation that can help you get started. Look here: https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

it is worth mentioning that this version is not backward compatible for some functionalities such as signing transactions with multiple parties in multi-sig designs or signing with the offline wallet due to changing how partially signed transactions work (BIP-174). if switch to new version is made in one wallet it must be done on all involved wallets.

I'm not seeing it mentioned on the front page of the website, nor is it listed on the downloads page. Obviously it's hosted on the official site, which does mean it's legit, but yes, verify, don't trust. I'll assume this beta version is compatible with the upgraded firmware Trezor released a couple of weeks ago. Has anyone had a chance to confirm?

I noticed this while playing around with the Alpha source. One of my hot wallet files would no longer open in Version 3.3.8 after creating a transaction with the newer version.

Yes, it works fine with my Trezor T. By the way, some time ago, Trezor changed the passphrase entry. Before the update, users could choose the way of passphrase entry directly on the device. After the update, the default method was set to host computer which broke third-party software compatibility. Now, the passphrase entry looks like this. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FbVumdog.png&t=665&c=Bc61O9NqMRJk5Q) I have also sent 2 transactions from my Nano X. It worked fine, but I still got a message about outdated third-party software before I was able to confirm those transactions.

Can you share some screenshots next time this shows up? One of my friends said he didn't get this notification while using his Nano X with Electrum 3.3.8, and it's my first time hearing about this too. Does this mean Nano X judge that a beta version is the latest version that the user should use then?
