Electrum Personal Server

Follow Stadicus`s guide: https://github.com/Stadicus/RaspiBolt/blob/master/raspibolt_64_electrum.md

some permissions I needed to fix:

ssh admin@Raspibolt

sudo su - bitcoin

ls -la

drwx------ 6 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Jan 2 23:55 .local

chmod 755 .local

drwxr-xr-x 6 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Jan 2 23:55 .local

monitor the log:

tail -f /tmp/electrumpersonalserver.log

restrict Electrum to use your own EPS, point it to the LAN IP of your Raspibolt

python3 run_electrum –oneserver –server [RaspiBolt.IP]:50002:s
