Try to import your wallet with the Counterwallet seed phrase at FreeWallet and send your whole balance from there.

Some time ago I had some tokens in a old wallet and didn't had the BTC 0.0005 required to do transactions with Counterwallet. So I just used FreeWallet to do the transaction with a fee of 0.0001 and it worked;

Of course... I didn't think of sweeping! Thanks for that! It'll probably make sense to do it once I have those several addresses of about 0.0005 each. Again, it's not so much the money - even if it may end up being worth more than a few dollars. Just don't like the idea of gathering dust. Makes me wonder how much bitcoin is left languishing on wallets with miniscule amounts.

Hi! Hoping someone can help out.

I opened a counterwallet address for easy access to a token on the Bitcoin blockchain but I have a small issue on emptying out the BTC address. When spending bitcoins, you can choose Normal, Low priority or specify your own. However, it seems to have a minimum amount set aside from the balance as fee. I've now tried to spend the entire amount, leaving aside the minimum (about 50k satoshi) but both txs used less than this blocked amount, each time leaving behind a small amount of BTC in the address.

Is there a way to empty it completely? It's not of particular concern of course, being only over a dollar's worth but I intend to have several addresses and I don't want to end up with 10 addresses with a dollar in each. Eventually, these will add up.
