great explanation wackou!! thanks for your time. But seems that I lost all my credits doing a 2nd register instead of the delegate promotion .... right?

well, it depends how much you had... Consider that a delegate registration is much more expensive than a user registration. A 100% delegate costs about 60'000 BTS to register, so for a 3% delegate this should be about 1800 BTS.

BTW,  do you think 3% is good enough?

Depends on what you will propose to do for the BitShares community. 3% is the standard rate for delegates "just" running the node and keeping it up-to-date. Core developers and other 3rd-party developers have higher pay (usually 100%) to fund their activity. So if you don't have any more plans than just running the delegate, I would suggest 3% (or less), but even then, competition is quite fierce and you will have to convince shareholders to vote for you. I would suggest to read through the history of this subforum and then make up your mind as to how much you want to run your delegate at. Good luck!

"wallet_account_register" registers your account on the blockchain, both for users and delegates. It does register a normal user by default, though.

But no worries, you can update the registration of your account using "wallet_account_update_registration":

Code: [Select]
>>> help wallet_account_update_registration
Usage:
wallet_account_update_registration <account_name> <pay_from_account> [public_data] [delegate_pay_rate]   Updates the data published about a given account
Updates the data published about a given account

Parameters:
  account_name (account_name, required): the account that will be updated
  pay_from_account (account_name, required): the account from which fees will be paid
  public_data (json_variant, optional, defaults to null): public data about the account
  delegate_pay_rate (uint8_t, optional, defaults to -1): -1 for non-delegates; otherwise the percent of delegate pay to accept per produced block

Returns:
  transaction_record

So in your case, for a 3% delegate and assuming "nicocesar" will pay for the registration (remember, it costs 2 weeks of delegate pay to register):

Code: [Select]
wallet_account_update_registration delegate.nicocesar nicocesar null 3

Ok updated to lates git pull and some stuff is working  .... like the blockchain is now in sync


bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> wallet_list_my_accounts
NAME (* delegate)                  KEY                                                             REGISTERED            FAVORITE       APPROVAL       BLOCK PRODUCTION ENABLED

then I did the registered:


bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> wallet_account_register 
account_name: delegate.nicocesar
pay_from_account: nicocesar


Now I have it both registered but I thought that wallet_account_register will make it delegate .... but I don't see that


bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> wallet_list_my_accounts                                     
NAME (* delegate)                  KEY                                                             REGISTERED            FAVORITE       APPROVAL       BLOCK PRODUCTION ENABLED

How and I make it delegate?  did I screw up at some point

some extra info:

bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> blockchain_get_block_count
1603646
bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> blockchain_is_synced
true
bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> wallet_account_balance nicocesar
No balances found.
bitsharewallet (unlocked) >>> wallet_account_balance delegate.nicocesar

I'm not a tech guy, but I doubt that it is because you need to add nodes.

Maybe this will give you something to try?

I deleted everything but the wallet then restarted the client and the same results. I'll do a git pull then recompile and try again. If it doesn't resolve the issue I'll just post a new thread


Again Thanks, onceuponatime for the bitshares and the patience !

just wait some 30 minutes or so .. it usually catches up eventually ... there are already bug reports about the network code not properly reconnecting ..

also concerning the results
Code: [Select]

A address is NOT a public key .. if you compare there lengths you will see that the address above is shorter than any of the keys .. in fact the address is derived from the active_key (or maybe owner key .. not sure)

Sometimes when my client gets stuck at a block I try shutting it down and restarting. That usually gets the block count going again.

I did that several times

I added the seed nodes listed here
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5851.0

but block 1575645 is missing on my client

tell me if there is more seeds nodes to add that might have it. Thanks,

well, that's because I have "nico" registered on the blockchain :D

:(  ....  lol ... I'll use another...

"wallet_list_my_accounts" shows your account in your wallet, and "wallet_get_account" shows the one from the blockchain (which is mine) (the function name is a bit of a misnomer, there's also "blockchain_get_account" which is about the same, but seems to return the data in a different format)

Great! this SHOULD be part of the explanation on the delegates howto!... I'm  on it--

This is strange as it should not have let you create the account with the name "nico" in your wallet knowing that there was already such an account on the blockchain (it's not a problem with the blockchain, but it can sometimes lead to confusion, as what just happened to you).

as I mention in another thread the issue was that I created the account *during* the sync of the blockchain ...  I'll start all over again and just wait for it to catch up-.

Thanks, "nico" ;)
