Title: No options to withdraw GRC etc. to an external wallet?
Post by: kwacorn on January 23, 2018, 09:34:58 pm

I use https://wallet.bitshares.org/ with a local wallet.

I would like to withdraw some of my coins and transfer them to an external wallet, in particular my Gridcoins, GRC, to my GridcoinResearch wallet. However I can find no options to withdraw them either in my Dashboard > Portfolio or in the https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/deposit-withdraw page.

Several months ago (August or September 2017?) I was able to withdraw and transfer GRC using the OpenLedger gateway, but for a few months now no OpenLedger gateway withdraw options have been available. A relatively recent OpenLedger blog entry, 8^th December 2017, says the "GRC, EMC, DASH, ETP gateways have been opened (https://blog.openledger.info/2017/12/08/grc-emc-dash-etp-gateways-have-been-opened/)" but still no options appear within https://wallet.bitshares.org/.

Hence a couple of questions:

• Are any OpenLedger gateway options going to become available anytime soon so I can withdraw and transfer Gridcoin or other coins?
• In the absence of any current withdraw options can anyone suggest alternative ways I may transfer my Gridcoins to my GridcoinResearch wallet?

Otherwise it seems some coins are trapped within the Bitshares wallet.

I discovered the main source of this problem was the settings for the Privacy Badger web browser add on (https://www.eff.org/privacybadger) which was blocking some needed content from OpenLedger, I have adjusted the settings now so the content is displayed giving me many more deposit-withdraw options. I have made a separate post (https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,25909.0.html) about the Privacy Badger settings in case others have been caught by the same problem.

However, regarding GRC, this remains the most recent OpenLedger blog entry:

Contrary to that, selecting GRC to deposit or withdraw results in the following message being displayed:

THE GATEWAY SERVICE FOR THIS ASSET IS CURRENTLY DOWN, PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER

which appears to have been the case for a few months, hence my original two questions remain mostly valid should anyone wish to comment.
