Purchased BTC from Circle, then transferred them to a brand new Electrum Wallet I created on Tails>Electrum 1.9.8. When I regenerate the wallet from seed the wallet shows no history at all and will not produce receiving addresses. 0 BTC balance, of course, and take a long time to sych.
I can PM the Electrum address I sent my coins to from Circle. $120, not a huge deal, but don't really enjoy watching it disappear for nothing in return.
What could have done wrong? I generated my Electrum wallet over Tor while on Tails. Is this persistent tails USB infected maybe?
on the bottom right of electrum, what color is the status, Green or Red?
the electrum bundled with tails is whack so you will need to update it. Do that and use the same seed and see if it works
