Title: Question about a problem depositing BTS from a exchange wallet.
Post by: Bear on May 08, 2020, 04:16:29 am

Hi everybody

I've got some BTS in a exchange wallet which I'm trying to send to my Bitshare.org wallet.

I see when I click on the deposit option in my Bitshares account it brings up a QR code for the deposit. However, I don't see any "long string address" for the deposit (only the QR code).

When I look on the exchange site it seems to want this "long string address" in order to make the withdrawal. It doesn't seem to have any option to enter this via QR code i.e. only the "long string address" method.

I should just mention that I'm using a PC. Not a mobile so I can't scan the QR code with the camera.

I'd be grateful for any help that anyone might be able to offer.

The external exchange should have a withdraw BTS option, and hopefully documentation with it.

Normally, the process is: you First, if you don't have one, create your own BitShares account. Second, you withdraw using the account name as withdraw destination.

If u want to make a deposit to ur bitshares wallet u only need to send the money using the account name you registered with as your deposit address on the exchange from where you are withdrawing, u can also attach a memo, but that is optional since it's your account
