Thanks for your help Steven. I guess there is no way to recoup my coins?

You can't get them back unless the bitcoins are sent back to you, sorry.

Should I have chosen something other than the default wallet? Something with better encryption?

If you mean the default_wallet file then no. It's the same as any other wallet file you'll create in electrum. If you set a password for it the file will be encrypted.

If you think your money was stolen then make sure your PC is free of virus. And create an entirely new wallet and stop using the older ones.

Should it be in my wallet then? I do not see it?

I take it your bitcoin address from your electrum wallet is 1BQZKqdp2CV3QV5nUEsqSg1ygegLmqRygj? If so then you've already spent the bitcoins on this transaction.

That address only have 0.00015475BTC left in it.

If it matters, I didn't save it before I broadcast-ed it..

Thanks

OK, I created a new wallet and pasted the transaction ID into the required field. Electrum accepted it and when I went to broadcast it I got a error message stating:

"The transaction was rejected by network rules.(missing inputs)"

There is 1 input listed:

d70bd771...2e2aca5e:1    1BQZKqdp2CV3QV5nUEsqSg1ygegLmqRygj

Any ideas?

Thanks


That d70b...:1 doesn't seem to exist in 1BQZKqdp2CV3QV5nUEsqSg1ygegLmqRygj. I don't know how that could be possible when the tx was loaded from blockchain.
Can you post the txid?

Right click on a transaction in electrum and click broadcast. Rebroadcasting won't raise your fee, it will simply let nodes (that haven't heard about or have dropped your transaction) know about your transaction.

Edit:
Actually that doesn't work (the broadcast button is greyed out), you'll have to create a new wallet and go to Tools > Load transaction > From the blockchain and enter your transaction ID instead. The tx have to be unrelated to your current wallet for you to be able to broadcast.
Could've swore it worked with tx related to your wallet before.

I believe I set my fee to low and would like to raise it for a faster transaction, any way to accomplish this?

Thank you,

John
