Title: Explain it like I'm 5 -Migrate from wallet.bitshares.org to bitshares.org/wallet
Post by: devlux on October 14, 2015, 07:50:25 am
I had a wallet at wallet.bitshares.org
Because I never had a fully functioning local wallet, I just memorized my "recovery key".
Obviously I know my recovery key and I would like to migrate my balances over to bitshares.org/wallet

Someone want to walk me through the process?
100 BTS for the person who can give me a correct answer.

Thanks!

p.s.  I would very much like my recovery key to remain the same, I don't think I have the brain power left to hold another one inside my head.

I wrote http://docs.bitshares.eu/migration
it should contain all you need for the migration (inclduing from wallet.bitshares.org)

Please tell me if you miss anything in the guide

Thanks I found that guide a few minutes after posting the question.  I do wonder though if my recovery key will remain the same.  I find that I often need to use different computers, the ability to log in via that recovery key really made a difference in my life. 

I'm still getting a black screen when I try to load the web wallet, I found out that my ISP ( a mobile provider) actively breaks websockets.  I don't have a choice in ISPs where I live, so I'm not sure how long that will be an issue.  In the meantime I'm flying blind.
