I use Electrum. Works like a charm.
I'm keen to start experimenting with BitCoin, and I'm interested to see
Electrum turn up in my test install of Trisquel 7. Any particular reasons why
Electrum was chosen for 7 over other BitCoin wallet apps? Anyone care to
share any experiences (good or bad) with Electrum or other wallets?
Hi guys,
I just wanted to ask whether Electrum will be updated to the new 2.0 version
in the trisquel repos, or should I install manually if I want to upgrade?
I know that normally software versions track the upstream Ubuntu, but since
Electrum was instroduced specially for Trisquel, I
Trisquel gets punctually all the essential security updates. So..sure, the
browsers must get updates!!
I think electrum is not an essential part of Trisquel. you should compile it
by yourself. I may be wrong though..
cheers
I stand corrected. Never used it. Don't need it - I have some coins from
ex-jugoslavia if you are interested.. very cheap and doesn't require
pithonius! :P
Ok, I'll upgrade manually.
Thanks for your help.
Actually, that's not technically true. Python code does need to be compiled,
but to bytecode (*.pyc) that is interpreted, rather than machine code, and
the Python interpreter compiles source automatically so you don't have to
think about it.
My guess is no.
But then, since Abrowser/Icecat seems to be getting updatesI don't know.
It's python, so it doesn't need to be compiled. :)
Done! Figured it out. Password rubricks can be helpful.
Turns out I cut off a character from my password.
Nice to have my Bitcoin back, though.
Still, my earlier comment stands. Export your private keys before
transferring to these addresses in Electrum.
Has anyone else had trouble with the Electrum Wallet in Trisquel 7?
Even though I was careful in copying the seed and password for the wallet, it
now will not accept the password and the seed does not re-create the wallet
as it's supposed to. It produces different addresses with zero
If you copied the wallet from a previous version of Electrum, could you go
back and restore it with that version?
By the way, if you could brute-force the wallet, would you want to use it in
the future? It wouldn't be secure. XD
I realize that's true about brute-forcing the key and I definitely agree.
I should've specified that I have an approximation of the kind of things I
would do in a password and that might narrow the scope of the search to the
degree that it might cost less electricity in figuring it out than
13 matches
