I know, earlier it was possible to fund your wallet, for single items, for example Dota 2 Ticket, i clicked in 'buy item' , then it showed me Recap of buying that item, (which cost about 0.7€) and then it threw me into the 'Add funds' window, there were options like 5€ 10€ 25€ Etc. and then there was that 0.7€, it was there becouse of me, Now when i do the same, Nothing is there only those normal 5,10,25, My question is: am i doing something wrong, or it just got removed?

There has never been an option for adding a smaller amount than $5 (or other currency) to the Wallet. When buying in the store, you can take just what you need from a connected bank account or the like, but it isn't added to the Wallet, just spent. With the Market, you had to add to your Steam Wallet.

Incorrect. There used to be an option to add just a certain amount. It was removed

Cuz of some trolls who send you like 25 cents, and then revoke the money, with the reason they put funds in an incorrect account.

Well, hasn't been available in the 18 months I've been buying on Steam, so it must have been removed a long time ago. Certainly not just removed.

Its long enough to notice that change. If they haven't spent money in 18 months on Steam, Market use wouldn't even be available.

Spending wallet money counts as spending.

Last I checked, you need to spend real money somehow, not just top it up by selling on Market. I've heard of of a user here losing access because they just used Wallet funds from selling on the Market for a year.

I ONLY use money I've made on the Steam market to buy things on Steam. I haven't used actual real money in almost 3 years to buy anything. o_O

Okay, that is certainly against what I've heard, but I know you wouldn't lie.

I've had Steamguard activated as long as I've had my account, over 3 years, I've also filled out the extra tax info for listing more than 200 things in a single year and I live in the US.

Those might also be part of the reason that I haven't had any problems with purchases.

It states "To be trusted, the account must have a successful purchase older than thirty days, but not older than a year. The purchase of wallet funds qualifies for becoming trusted."

I'm fairly sure you can use Steam Wallet funds, but it needs to be a store transaction, not a market transaction. I think I'm past a year since I've used real money on Steam.

That explains why I've never had any problems.

I sell on the market(and occasionally buy but very rarely) and buy through the store.

I also average about 1 or 2 small transactions a month, through the store and a lot more through the market. I rarely craft badges, 9 times out of 10 I just sell the cards earned from playing most games.

I'm on steam since december, i bought some stuff on TF2 using the Mann co store, they directly wrote the exact amount on my wallet a few months ago. So it's not like a few years back.
