TBH, Such threads create a fear as i am about to start using Electrum from today.

Edit: Please create your own thread.

Thank you for the reply. Yes, i did activate the 2FA. Maybe that's the reason why they asked me my email ID.
Yes, this is the reason it asks for your email address. The 2FA wallet feature uses TrustedCoin API, and they require your email address when you agree to the Terms and Conditions:

This is normal, and, for Electrum 2FA, I'm fairly sure they don't actually send you any confirmation email... I believe the email address is used purely for creating an "account" with TrustedCoin so that when you buy prepaid 2FA service fees, they can track your account credit.

And possibly receive notifications when a transaction is sent...



So I have a list of 2048 words I found In electrum files.

Are these the 12 or 13 words electrum picks from when the seed is made?

Can Someone enter 12 random words from the list and access any wallet?
