Re: [qubes-users] A Little Help Understanding Bitcoin
If I look at my watching only wallet at the bottom right of the Electrum window there is a red icon indicating network status. I expected this icon to be green since this wallet is supposed to be watching, no? In your watching-only electrum you should see it green. You probably have some configuration error. Does firefox work fine on this VM? I just changed the template my Electrum qube is based on from a fedora-31-minimal template to a fedora-31 template and my watching only wallets' network status has now turned green and I can see my transactions. In additiona, if someone could confirm to me that what I am doing is correct. I created a new transaction on the receiving tab of the watching only wallet and then used the QR code generated by this to receive bitcoin, but I have not received anything. Am I just impatient or was I not supposed to do this in my watching only wallet? Not sure if this is related to my above question of the network status not being green. I am a complete Bitcoin noob. Any help with this will be very much appreciated. Yes, if your electrum can't connect it won't show your balance. If you know what address did you sent, try some block explorer: - https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/ Would anybody have an idea what a minimal template might be missing in this particular usecase? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] A Little Help Understanding Bitcoin
I created a offline and watching only (Electrum) bitcoin wallet as describes in the Qubes docs, https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/split-bitcoin/, but I wanted to find out of I did something wrong or if what I am seeing is in fact correct. If I look at my watching only wallet at the bottom right of the Electrum window there is a red icon indicating network status. I expected this icon to be green since this wallet is supposed to be watching, no? The watching only wallet uses sys-whonix as its netVM. In additiona, if someone could confirm to me that what I am doing is correct. I created a new transaction on the receiving tab of the watching only wallet and then used the QR code generated by this to receive bitcoin, but I have not received anything. Am I just impatient or was I not supposed to do this in my watching only wallet? Not sure if this is related to my above question of the network status not being green. I am a complete Bitcoin noob.
