As an Ethereum user, you may have encountered issues with your Electrum wallet recently, including “No FX rate available”, “No Data” for balances, and a missing transaction. In this article, we’ll guide you through troubleshooting these errors and provide steps to resolve them.
Issue 1: “No FX Rate Available”
The error message indicates that the wallet is unable to retrieve the current foreign exchange (FX) rates from external sources. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
- Incorrect or outdated configuration
- Network connectivity issues
- Insufficient network bandwidth
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
- Restart your Electrum wallet by closing it and reopening it.

Issue 2: “No Data” for Balances
This error typically occurs when the wallet cannot retrieve balance data from external sources or fails to synchronize with other wallets. To resolve this issue:
- Check if your Electrum wallet is connected to a network (e.g., mainnet, testnet).
- Ensure that you’re running the latest version of Electrum (2.8.2).
- If using an older version of Electrum, update to the latest version (v3.x) as soon as possible.
Issue 3: Missing Transaction
The missing transaction error might indicate a problem with the recipient or sender information in your wallet. Here’s how to resolve it:
- Verify that you’re trying to send funds to the correct address.
- Check if the sender is listed correctly in the “Who You Are” section of Electrum settings.
- If using an older version of Electrum, update to the latest version (v3.x) as soon as possible.
