power outage before transaction arrived (Electrum on Tails)

Hello

I am wondering what could happen to my BTC funds under the following circumstances...



1.
creating a new wallet in Electrum (on Tails with NO persistence, that means a Linux Live System)


2.
writing down the 12 word seed


3.
sharing the wallet-address to a donor


4.
donor send BTC to my (wallet) address



5.
Power outage of my PC running Electrum (on Tails with NO persistence)



Question:

Does it depend on how long the PC running Electrum on Tails (with NO persistence) was connected to the
internet/blockchain (before the power outage happened), whether my Bitcoins are lost or not?




Thank's a lot!
