It is easier to create and register a new account in the other wallet.
And then transfer funds into it.

My best guess it that account names are not transferable.

You can juggle the account keys like in https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=14344.0
But whether it will serve your purpose I don't know. (I wouldn't recommend until you know what your are doing).

The last couple of days I am able to connect for 1-2 minutes and then there are no connections. Even if someone wants to buy BTS or shortbitassets these days in the exchange it is impossible...

I don't think so. I've got a healthy/usual number of connections and could short BitUSD no problem.

I think think the terms now are that you hold onto the Bitshares or BitAssets for at least 24 hours then you must transfer them via a trade or out of your wallet and depending on how long you held on to them you will receive a dividend. Is that correct?

    Also, is it necessary to continually have my wallet open similar to proof of staking?

    Thank you.

I'm not an expert but your understanding seems correct.

Your DPOS (delegated proof of stake) participation happens when you approve a delegate and transfer funds. I think in the current GUI version, when you vote, your funds in the account are transfered back to you and the voting stake equal to the amount of funds either added or subtracted (depending on your choice) from the delegate's total vote share. If a delegate receives more votes (represented by the BitShares stake) than the 101th active delegate, he/she starts producing the blocks and collecting rewards. The delegate knocked out of the 101th place becomes a delegate in waiting.

That's it. You can have your client switched off untill you need it or ready to vote again.

Isn't it the same issue as in "Collateral stuck after manual cover?!"

Is it possible to have a link to https://blocktrades.us/ that will point straight
to BTC/BitShare market (or some other specific market)?

I could share the link, but the default market rates Bitcoin/BitBTC don't look promotional.

Hey All. Just opened an account and registered on the blockchain today.  I see myself on the blockchain, however in the dashboard I'm not getting the "registered" confirmation. I'm probably missing something obvious, but any help is appreciated.

I also see the "Last block was synced" data at the bottom of the screen, is that related to my registration in anyway?

Thanks.

If you see your account name on the blockchain,
for example, looking it up on this website - http://bitsharesblocks.com/accounts

it means it is successfully registered.

If your BitShares client does not say so, it is likely that either the blockchain was not synchronized or the wallet did not scan the latest blocks for changes yet.

Give it some time or stop/start the client to catch up with the latest blocks.

The bottom of the GUI BitShares client shows the status of the your blockchain.

You can open the console in your gui client and try 'get_info' command: very helpful.
