i use electrum, i restarted my pc and i had none of my addresses, no backup, no nothing

If you already make sure the address isn't exist by checking "Addresses" tab or running this command on "Console Tab" & make sure you open correct wallet file, then you might experience rare bug or some software decide to delete your wallet file.

Code:
>>> ismine("tb1q3k9azsgu6f048z7qgsj2w9rs6ggh05dcxyf3gm")
false

P.S. If you're looking for help about this problem, i would recommend you to create new thread on Electrum board.

yeah, dont know what happened to my first address, sorry about that
Yikes, you lost 0.01790317tBTC? That's over half of a whole block subsidy on testnet. Undecided
yup, dont know why my address changed :,)

Just wondering, which wallet software do you use? Some wallet may show different address after previous address receive coin to improve user privacy, but you should able to spend coin from any generated address.

Well the coins in the 1st address you have posted have not moved. https://mempool.space/testnet/address/tb1qjvntwgt3snue53m0qg4my8elyk4lm7zz6zyehk
Since I do care about BTC and keeping the ecosystem moving.

I am sending some tbtc to: tb1qt0lenzqp8ay0ryehj7m3wwuds240mzhgdhqp4c
From: tb1q3k9azsgu6f048z7qgsj2w9rs6ggh05dcxyf3gm

ive already did what i needed to do, and have returned the tbtc
Either you are a big liar or you think we are all here imbeciles and morons Roll Eyes
Balance is still the same 0.01740317 tBTC, so nothing was ever ''returned'' or sent from your public address:
Quote
Total received   ‎0.01740317 tBTC
Total sent         ‎0.00000000 tBTC
Balance            ‎0.01740317
https://mempool.space/testnet/address/tb1qjvntwgt3snue53m0qg4my8elyk4lm7zz6zyehk
im using a diff address now, ill send the address later when i get on my pc
So, 13 days later and guess what? That tbtc is still sitting untouched in their wallet. So much for the OP's claims of honesty...  Roll Eyes
mb school has been shit, had a ton of exams out of nowhere and had to study a lot, heres a transaction frm when i sent tbtc back to a faucet a few days/weeks ago; https://www.blockchain.com/btc-testnet/tx/0e058cf77171d1ff6e6befea92bf09dcd10319b0f782d369b35fae09538f33f0

Wow, time flies! I thought of something the other day: what about mining those tBTC yourself? After all, we have these guides by nullama:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-solo-mine-testnet-bitcoins-with-cgminer-bitcoin-core-and-a-compac-f-5415335
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-solo-mine-testnet-bitcoins-with-bfgminer-bitcoin-core-and-a-cpugpu-5415861

However, only then it dawned on me: the testnet block reward is only 0.025tBTC per block, instead of 6.25!
You'd need 40 blocks for 1tBTC.. Grin

For general testing of Bitcoin or applications built on it, very small amounts easily suffice (as explained above), and by using unnecessarily large amounts you are taking away tBTC from everyone else.
Precisely.
For the vast majority of test cases, are you testing that the code you are working on for *your* software/app is able to correctly transmit/receive transactions. The amount of the Tx is irrelevant (unless your code moves a decimal point...), it's getting the process to work correctly that counts.

Once your testing is done and the project is safe to use on the main BTC network a true community supporter is expected to return tBTC back to the Faucets so they can continue to support code development.

faucets dont work for me
You have 0.017 tBTC already, it seems to work just fine.

Quote
want it purely to experiment with it.
You still haven't shared what you need it for. I can't think of many things that you can do with 0.5 but can't do with 0.017.
yeah, im using a vpn to use faucets, and im just gonna try my best to get wht i need with that faucet, thx
So you're jumping through a lot of hoops to evade IP rate limiting of tBTC faucets. You seem pretty determined to suck those faucets dry.
I'd just like you to know that their limits have a good reason, which is that they just have limited amounts of tBTC available. For general testing of Bitcoin or applications built on it, very small amounts easily suffice (as explained above), and by using unnecessarily large amounts you are taking away tBTC from everyone else. Unless absolutely needed (again; with a good reason, you can get tBTC easily from forum members), you should please avoid sucking faucets until there's nothing left for others.

I do not plan on sending this to anyone else, I am not buying/selling tBTC and want it purely to experiment with it.
And how do you want to experiment exactly? Please explain.
Nobody is going to send you larger amount of bitcoin with childish explanation like that, and begging wont help also.
It's clear that you are only collecting and receiving testnet coins, and you didn't sent a single satoshi, that is not really called experimentation.
Unfortunately, it seems like EndoBTC doesn't understand the actual use case for tBTC and their faucets and probably hoards to sell them.
I heard some shitcoins are also exchangeable for tBTC. Hopefully with my above explanation they understand why it's not a very nice thing to do.

was just going to experiment with tbtc

If it's just casual experiment, most likely don't need 0.5-0.7tBTC. You could just use 1 sat/vbyte as TX fee and send only send very small amount of Bitcoin on each output address. But if you insist you need lots of tBTC, you either have to
1. Explain in detail why you need lots of tBTC. Most people wouldn't give such amount due to tBTC scarcity and potential you fell for scam.
2. Use all faucet which already mentioned.
3. Mine tBTC with your own device. While difficulty on testnet is too high for CPU/GPU, you can try your luck by mining block with difficulty 1 if there's no block mined in last 20 minutes.
faucets dont work for me, theyre all blocked for some reason. which is why im asking here

rate limited from all the faucets, was just going to experiment with tbtc [emphasis mine]. still yet to learn what all this stuff means on the github etc.
For simply 'experimenting with Bitcoin', even 0.01tBTC (or however much faucets give you) is more than enough. Bitcoin is divisible down to 1/100.000.000th (satoshis), that's why you can do thousands of transactions with even a small amount of test BTC.

You can also easily just 'experiment with Bitcoin' with regtest, as Dave mentioned above. I don't see why you need 'large amounts' of tBTC.
