I'm yet to understand the technical details about unspent transaction output (UTXO) or dust, but I have encountered this issue a couple of times. Someone please explain to me like a grade 5 kid how to get out of this mess. My BTC is stuck in a wallet and will not allow sending to any address. The wallet does not support lightning. I tried adding more BTC to check if it can resolve the issue, but in vain. Any help? TIA.

It might be the transaction has been sent over with fees not set correctly. This article from Trustnet explains how their wallet works...
Hope it helps...

What issue?
What mess?
What do you mean stuck? Can you give me a detailed step-by-step of what you did.

Do you know if it is a custodial or non-custodial wallet?
Reason I ask is because if it is custodial, the wallet can stop you from sending. The wallet provider owns the bitcoin, you just have a claim to it essentially. Just like a bank, they can stop you from withdrawing.
If it is non-custodial nothing can stop you from posting it to the mempool (read Bitcoin network).

No advice here. I’ve got a wallet in the same situation. 200k sats.

@go, It seems to be a common mess @Onions when you cant send btc to another address or spend it. Means it's stuck. The wallet in question is TrustWallet and if this is the case, then users should stop using their service, even if it is non-custodial. @lonestarr

First of all, you shouldn't even be using TrustWallet, that's a shitcoiner wallet. Whatever.
Can you explain why do you say your btc is "stuck"? What you did to make it stuck? You aren't explaining anything so we can't help you...

for not reading my guides and many others... you were using a shitcoin wallet because you are a shitcoiner.

TrustWallet looks like something I would not use. If you see Web3 or NFT run as fast as you can. These are not Bitcoin wallets. Look into something proven like Mutiny or Sparrow.
In Bitcoin you really do need to do your homework. Great power, great responsibility.
