Thanks, i did read a bit ago how to do the raw transaction, looked like it was all via CLI, but for ease of use i wanted to use electrum, i figure if its easier theres less chance of it going wrong.
Since you have the blockchain, it can be done in the GUI while offline in a very straightforward way:
- Just create the transaction as usual in your 'Send' tab until you send it to your own mempool, but you'll have to set a custom fee via "Choose..." since fee estimation wont work.
It's in BTC/vkB by default so convert the decimals. (the default is set to a value equivalent to 1sat/vB) - After that, go to your 'Transactions' tab, find the just-created unconfirmed transaction, right-click and select "Copy raw transaction".
- You can then broadcast that to an online Bitcoin Core, Electrum or other push transaction tools.
thanks for this, i didnt realize it was this easy! hah. Its another option ill keep in mind for future reference. i like options.
