Title: How does Electrum work?
Post by: phoniks on August 14, 2013, 08:56 am
HIya's,

I think i understand the basics and i've installed it onto my tails 0.20 according to the instructions in the thread here about installing to tails. Now that it is installed when i open it it says its synchronising for a few seconds then says "not connected". I tried sending a very small fraction of bitcoins from my other bitcoin account to one of the addresses supplied and nothing seems to have happened.

Is this how it works? I just send the coins to the address and it will show me when they arrive in the history? I'm sure this is very simple, i would just like to know if this is working correctly.

Thanks for any input

:)

It seems to be working fine after all, it just took a long time to come through :)
