can i send btc ltc and doge directly to the address in my wallet cause just for a test i sent 10 doge yesterday and never received it in my wallet and the same for trade.btc and trade.ltc or do i have to send my deposit to blocktrades to be converted
Hi Oakmaster,
You should be able to buy the trade.btc/trade.ltc directly from the wallet. I checked our system and I don't see any failed transactions for trade.btc or trade.ltc. Can you PM me with more information about your transactions?
One potential issue (which doesn't appear to be the case for the trade asset purchases as it would show up differently in our system) is that you have to send enough input funds to cover transaction cost of sending you the trade asset. For example, I did check the value of the 10 DOGE you sent to openledger, and it's less than the cost of a transaction, so I'd guess that's why you haven't received any OPENDOGE from them. You probably need to send around 1000 DOGE to get any output.
best regards,

with the doge is ok it was only 10 doge just as a test but i just wanted to make sure if i send BTC or LTC from my BTC or LTC wallet to the address in my Bitshares wallet Openledger and Blocktrade BTC and LTC address is that ok or for TRADE.BTC and TRADE.LTC do i have to send it to blocktrades than to my wallet to have it converted to TRADE.BTC I just dont want to send 100 in btc to my wallet address and have it not show up cause I was supposed to convert it
Thank You
You don't have to visit the Blocktrades.us website, you can send directly to the BTC/LTC addresses in the wallet and they will be converted to either an OPEN asset (if you use CCEDK) or a TRADE asset (if you use BlockTrades). If it's your first time making a deposit, I do recommend sending a smaller amount, say .01 BTC before you send 100 BTC, however.
After you make the deposit, the TRADE.BTC or TRADE.LTC should show up in your wallet after 1 or 2 confirmations. You can then place orders on the distributed exchange with your TRADE asset. For example, you could visit the TRADE.BTC_BTS market to place an order for BTS.
On the other hand, if you just want to purchase BTS directly with BTC, and don't want to do it via an exchange-type transaction (placing a bid or ask), you can visit blocktrades.us and buy the BTS directly from BlockTrades.
So there's really two paths to purchasing, just depends on if you want to be an active trader or just make a quick asset buy.
