Did you disable change addresses? The transactions show change addresses are not used....

This is not related to the issue of the OP.

Besides that, you can't 'disable' change addresses. That's how bitcoin works. You use one (or multiple) UTXO(s) and create one (or multiple) UTXO(s).
OP has send the whole UTXO 'to someone else', therefore it is a 1 input 1 output transaction.


OP, both of the transactions were received successfully.
Which tumbler did you use? And where did your second transaction go to? A private person or some business / website ?

If these are created by Electrum clearly something IS wrong, look at the transactions...

EDIT: right, he transfered the whole amount, my bad

Electrum does not use a wallet.dat file.... Electrum wallet files have no extention and the default wallet is called "default_wallet"

Are you sure this file is from a previous Electrum installation? Bitcoin Core uses wallet.dat

Re: Confirmed BTC transaction not showing up on Ledger wallet? Help?

@OP use the bip39 tool to recover your BTC, export the private key and import it to another wallet so you have full control over your bitcoins.

What?
Do you even know what this topic is all about ?

OP has a hardware wallet. The last thing he should do is to enter the seed somewhere else than into his nano s...




OP, can you verify that the address is indeed part of your wallet ? Did you verify it on your nano s screen when asked to do so ?
If not, you might want to connect your nano s with electrum, open the console and enter:
Code:
ismine("1YourBTCAddress")

If it returns true, it is just a connection / display issue.

This is exactly why the bip39 tool is there and my advice to not do it on the webpage itself but rather to "save it as..."

This is a known method for recovering lost or "unreachable" coins.

I tried passwords many times! I'm sorry I can't do it.

This is the information from the console.The other day, I made a $1 BTC call to this address to try it out.If you can help me find my password, I'd like to pay 5 to 10 BTC in parallel (provided I don't provide. dat files)

21:57:39

    "address": "1EZeYuLR2ugK8sk4XeDVcyNGBT7sGPDrNb",
    "amount": 31.63000000,
[
  {
    "address": "1EZeYuLR2ugK8sk4XeDVcyNGBT7sGPDrNb",
    "amount": 31.63000000,

This wallet has been sent to us multiple times from at least 5 different accounts.

Its a hacked/stolen wallet thats been floating around for years.

I suggest OP remove the message.

I rest my case

I am 99.9% sure this is not your wallet but a file you found on a cloud or something and are trying to crack it.

I read this suggestion before (but didn't bookmark the link), so I'll reproduce it: Could it be you wrote the words in a different order:
Say:
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8
And now you're going 1 3 5 7 ...... 2 4 6 8 ......?

This is what i did  Grin

I know it's not Electrum and i know all the words are right but i think some of the words (2 or 3) are not in the right order.....

I have tried the bip39 tool on an offline pc and it says invalid mnemonic but all the words are bip39 words.

Recovering bip39 seed

I have a 24 word bip39 seed and all the words are in the bip39 word list.
Somehow it is not a valid bip39 seed, i think the checksum fails.

I have tried to replace words with similar looking words from the list, no help.

The seed is from a Nano S.

Any advice or script to check for errors in the seed?

Re: Electrum - RBF - Error Message Query
by
djhomeschool
on 17/06/2019, 06:50:25 UTC
I think you are connection to a phishing server.....

Try to connect to another server (Tools - Network - Server) and right click on a server and select "Use this server". One of the servers i always use is "e2.keff.org", see if that one is in your list.

Let us know if this helped.

Hi djhomeschool,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I am most definitely not connected to a phishing server as I am connecting to my own node via Electrum Personal Server. I have figured out (I believe) the issue, and am suggesting an improvement to help others who come across this error Smiley


TLDR: RBF has a rule that requires your RBF fee bump to be at least the size of your transaction in bytes above the original fee. (So a transaction that's 225 bytes, paying 1,000 sats can only be bumped by 225 sats or more).

This isn't reflected in Electrum, and took me some research to figure out, so I am suggesting the error message be updated to better reflect it (and potentially the algorithm for suggesting the fee bump too).

Good find!

Glad you got this solved, maybe @ThomasV will read this and take notice.
