BITCOIN CLIENTS IN TAILS –BLOCKCHAIN AND ELECTRUMIn this chapter I want to talk about 2 options for trading your Bitcoins.#1 – Blockchain#2 – ElectrumBy now, hopefully you know how to use BlockChain. If not, you simply go tohttp://blockchain.info and press the button “Wallet” and you can open up your existingwallet or create a new account. Very straight forward and can be done all from your webbrowser.But what about Electrum? Electrum is an easy to use Bitcoin client. It protects you fromlosing coins in a backup mistake or computer failure, because your wallet can berecovered from a secret phrase that you can write on paper or learn by heart. There is nowaiting time when you start the client, because it does not download the Bitcoinblockchain. If you use the normal Bitcoin client from https://bitcoin.org then you wouldneed to download the entire blockchain, which is several GB of data. In Tails, we aretrying not to download too much to our computers. Downloading the entire BlockChaincan take over 24 hours.So how do we set up Electrum in Tails? First thing we need to do is download it.https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-1.9.7.tar.gzNow extract it (right click -> Extract here) and rename the folder to electrum to makethings easier. (Right click -> Rename). You might also want to move the folder tothe tmp directory so it is easier to find. (Places -> Computer -> File System -> tmp)Next open up a terminal and type the following commandcd /tmp/electrumYou can replace /tmp/electrum with whatever directory electrum is currently in, but this iswhy we put it in tmp, to make things easier for us. Next type the following command../electrum -s 56ckl5obj37gypcu.onion:50001:t -p socks5:localhost:9050This will allow your electrum to connect through Tor, to make sure it does not connectover clearnet. You will get a warning when you do this that electrum is attempting toconnect in an unsafe manner, but this is expected, and do not worry, it is safe to do this.This step was recommended on the Tails web page at the following URL.https://tails.boum.org/forum/Report:_the_electrum_bitcoin_client_in_tails/Since you are likely going to want to reuse your wallet that is generated in Electrum, youcan specify where your wallet is kept by replacing the above command with the followingcommand../electrum -s 56ckl5obj37gypcu.onion:50001:t -p socks5:localhost:9050 -w
/tmp/electrum.datYou would replace /tmp/electrum.dat with whatever the path to your wallet is, and you canrename electrum.dat to whatever you want to call your wallet, like srwallet.dat orwhatever you want. Or leave it the way that it is. Then each time you want to start upelectrum, reuse the same command, and make sure you copy electrum.dat into /tmp orwhatever directory you wish to use. Then when you are finished, make sure to back upelectrum.dat onto your USB drive or SD card, especially if you do not have Tailspersistence. This way you can reuse the same wallet and you will not lose your balance.Electrum is likely going to be the Bitcoin client of choice for Tails users. And you canread more about how to use Electrum by visiting the home page at the following link.https://electrum.org
