If you see the **Insufficient funds** error message when you try to send a transaction, it means you are trying to send more funds than you have in your account (when also accounting for [transaction fees](https://helpcenter.dxp-frontend.devserver.app/blockstream-app/faqs/why-do-i-have-to-pay-transaction-fees-and-why-are-they-sometimes-high)). It may appear that you have enough funds to spend, but this is before calculating the fee paid to Bitcoin miners to have your transaction included on the [blockchain](https://glossary.blockstream.com/blockchain/).

Try lowering the amount you are spending (or send more funds to your wallet) to make sure there is enough left over to pay for fees.

If you would like to send the maximum amount possible, select **Send all**, which will automatically adjust your sending amount to account for the transaction fees that will be paid.

> **Note:** If you are [sending assets using Liquid](https://helpcenter.dxp-frontend.devserver.app/blockstream-app/use-liquid-bitcoin/receive-and-send-liquid-assets), then you will[ pay transaction fees with LBTC](https://helpcenter.dxp-frontend.devserver.app/liquid-network/faqs/how-do-transaction-fees-on-liquid-work), so make sure you have enough in your wallet to avoid the **Insufficient funds** error.
