im newbie, i wants to create a bitcoin wallet but i dont know how to do it.

Let me quote one of my posts about installing electrum and sending/receiving funds in it.

It is not really rocket science, possible for anyone to understand who has the ability to read, and understand what is the meaning of deposit/ receive and send.

Let's say you are downloading Electrum as your Bitcoin wallet, you can find the Download link on their official website.

https://electrum.org/#download

Once you downloaded the wallet.
Setting up your wallet:

1. Launch Electrum then You'll be prompted to create a new wallet or restore an existing one.
2. Choose "Create a new wallet" and click "Next."
3. Select "standard wallet option" and click "Next".
4. Choose you want to create a new seed then Electrum will generate a seed for you.
5. write down this seed and keep it in a safe place. This seed is essential for wallet recovery.
6. Confirm the seed by entering it in the next window.
7. Set a strong password for your wallet and click Next.

Now you completely set up your wallet.

Receiving Bitcoin:

Click on the "Receive" tab to generate a receiving address. You can generate multiple addresses if needed.

Sending Bitcoin:

1. Click on the "Send" tab.
2. Enter the recipient's Bitcoin address, the amount you want to send.
3. Choose the right fee as suggested by Electrum, you can also use https://mempool.space/ to find the actual fee and click "Send."

If you still need any tutorials then you can use Helpful Guides For Newbie on the Electrum Wallet posted by Ratimov.


Electrum is only available for Android so if you are an IOS user check out https://bluewallet.io/

Installation and all other procedures are more or less the
same for most wallets so anyone with basic knowledge about operating mobile can find how to do it.
