How to check if Electrum is masking my IP with the Tor proxy?
When i start Electrum from the command line i see this mensage:
(python3:7069): dbind-WARNING **: 14:09:58.452: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken
What does it mean?
I just installed Electrum following this tutorial: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/tor.html I followed the instructions from this topic "Option 2: Multiple servers but Tor Main".
I installed Electrum using the command line on Ubuntu, check the "Installation from Python sources" on this link https://electrum.org/#download if you want to see the codes.
And i used this code bellow to download the Signatue keys:
$ gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 2BD5824B7F9470E6
I checked the both checkbox: 1)Use tor proxy at port 9050, 2)Proxy SOCKET5 127.0.0.1 9050. And the Circle Icon on the bottom right is Blue, this means that's working, i guess. That's all i did. Kinda easy compared to Bitcoin Core
How can i check if the Electrum is using the "Tor IP" instead of mine? I'm safe with this setup?
