BitShares AGS / Re: No AGS for my BTC, am I overlooking something?
« on: July 20, 2014, 10:47:32 pm »
No, he means AGS explorer is not showing his balance correctly.

What about the tool? http://bitshares.org/resources/genesis-blocks/

By the way that tool doesn't seem to work. - It should probably cache some default scenarios instead of compute them on the fly.

e.g. most new DACS will probably want the final snapshot. Then you can pre-calculate downloadable links for 10%/10% 20%/20% etc.

General Discussion / Re: To the guy who registered "toast"
« on: July 20, 2014, 10:46:35 pm »
There is a command: wallet_account_rename <current name> <new name>

Would that free up toast if he simply renamed the account to something else? 


Also there was talk in the beginning of having account names expire if not maintained.  Not implemented yet but it could solve this "rush to register everything" problem.  Maybe initially have it require a 3 month maintenance or something.  You'd maintain the names you cared about and the others you'd let back into the wild.

I believe the expiration may be implemented at some point (see https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5753.msg77618#msg77618), which would allow freeing up names so that they can be reassigned to fresh keys.

I have some keys in blockchain.info. How do import them into the BitsharesX wallet?

Thanks

Currently for blockchain.info wallets, you must manually export your private keys and then import them into BTSX using the wallet_import_private_key command.

To export your private keys, you must go to the advanced tab in your blockchain.info wallet, then click export unencrypted, then choose Bitcoin-Qt format, then copy the appropriate private key and paste it into the BTSX wallet with the wallet_import_private_key command.

Someone else will be able to explain this better than me. We will get import tutorials up as soon as possible: https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/issues/541

It may also be possible to import your blockchain.info backup wallet file into multibit, export your multibit wallet file, then import into BTSX using wallet_import_multibit; but this is untested.

1054
Try a rescan after import.

I couldn't get the wallet import to work (could be user error), but I was able to get the private key exported out of MultiBit and import that to the bitshares wallet instead.  BTSx balances showed up just fine. 

Thanks

We will look into it: https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/issues/535

General Discussion / Re: Is the password effectively a brain-wallet ?
« on: July 20, 2014, 10:07:06 pm »
Password performs the same purpose as the password on your bit coin wallet, it encrypts the private keys on your disk.   Private keys are generated from random data by Open SSL and secure.

Your password strength only becomes an issue if someone hacks your computer and wants to brute force your wallet password to get your private keys.   This is very different from a weak brain wallet where anyone can attempt to brute force your keys without even having to have hacked your computer.

Thanks for clearing this up - thats what I was hoping for. But then the wiki should be clarified that its not just your passphrase that you need to backup, but your wallet file as well.

I have put a note about it on the page: http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_How-To

General Discussion / Re: Clearly the World Needs TITAN
« on: July 20, 2014, 09:55:47 pm »
Does Bitshares X allow users to do transactions without the TITAN feature? I'm thinking that there could be cases where one wants a particular transaction to be visible and verifiable to third parties. Should visible transactions be made an option?

Bitcoin-style address transfers are still possible, just not accessible in our wallet at the moment. We will be adding an option for this.

TITAN does not link your key to an identity, simply to a name. Your TITAN name/key is something that you would include as part of your Keybase profile to link it to your identity.

BitShares PTS / Re: PTS Update?
« on: July 17, 2014, 03:47:09 pm »
I just received some LTB coins from Adam. Even the amount is small I intend to use them in LTB for tipping others and I intend to visit his webpage more often...I never followed LTB for any news or updates regarding crypto. This is about to change for me just because of this small donation.

The point I want to make is that I think we should switch to DPOS and the remaining PTS to be donated. Donate them to anyone who installs Kehotee, to anyone who installs BTS X platform, to anyone who refers someone to Bitshares projects, to anyone who likes the facebook page, to anyone who makes a positive comment about bitshares to reddit, bitcoin talk etc, air drop them to other target communities (maybe NXT,PPC,XCP,Ripple,mastercoin,ethereum).

Can we do that?



Agreed.

Another PTS pool, Beeeeer.org, is going offline August 8th thus would be beneficial to make this switch soon.

I believe this idea was discussed previously and shot down by the community for some reason; don't remember which thread though.

I am no longer working on .p2p for the foreseeable future, but rather on the core toolkit only; so you can remove me as a dev from .p2p.

Are other people experiencing similar problems?

1063
Also, Bitcoin wallet import has been fixed, and should work with Bitcoin Core, BitShares PTS, Armory, Electrum, and Multibit formats. Please test.

1064
Everyone please be mindful that wallet_account_balance always returns the correct value and report it if not. Someone in the last dry run reported a problem with it: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5523.msg74085#msg74085

Did you update fc via 'git submodule update'?
