General Discussion / Re: To the guy who registered "toast"
« on: July 20, 2014, 09:51:32 am »
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 thought that thread was more about can't-miss-dates for those people who don't check the forums much to stay up on things they need to do.  Not my thread, just how I interpreted its purpose :) .

Another option is to import a private key from a PTS wallet if you have one.

First rule: do not run delegate in the GUI and then vote for your self.
Second rule: find and vote in good guys, never approval for those delegate with low reliability and don't produce blocks.
Third rule: do you remember to unlock 999999999 for enough long time before go to bed?


Thanks for this. Other than not voting for yourself is there any other reason not to run delegate in the GUI?  I'll be setting up a dedicated Ubuntu headless rig for this once I get it compiled but for now it's just the Windows client.

Accounts don't have balances.... we talked about requiring a once-per-year update transaction, but that is not currently required.  (We have one year to implement that :))


Oh, right.  A wallet has a balance and the accounts are just aliases for private/public keys within the wallet...is that close or at least an OK way to think about it?

They are not really transferrable... so...

You could transfer them to someone that trusts you though, right?  For example I created one for my wife.  If I give her the private key she could use it.  Granted she'd always have to trust me since I know the private key, but...

Correct, you can do that.  You can even lease names... (ie: change the active key on an account, but the "owner" can always take it back).


If you don't fund an account it will eventually expire and become available, right?  I think I recall reading that ages ago...

+5%

Thank you that makes sense now.

Also, how do you start producing blocks as a delegate after registering as a delegate?




P.S. I'm also buying as many names as I can. ;)

Also, in all the excitement....don't forget to back up your wallet once you create it!  You can export it to .json via File->Export Wallet.

I imported a private key and I want to send all my funds there, just in case. I can't seem to be able to locate the list of my BTS public addresses.


One option, though not as clean as perhaps another, is to Export your wallet to .json and then view in a text editor.  You're talking about the newly released Bitshares-X, right?

So I created an account with the name I wanted but when I try to register it it says I need to fund the account first.  How do I do that?  I have a number of BTSX on bter but they don't have withdraw enabled yet.


Is it safe to import my founder private key?

those steps exactly? I thought this was building the toolkit, which bitsharesx is based on, but isn't bitsharesx?


You are correct: What I built was the CLI version of the BitsharesXT wallet.  The QT is still not compiling for me.

Did you follow these steps?  It worked for me on 14.04 LTS:



sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cmake git libreadline-dev uuid-dev g++ libdb++-dev libdb-dev zip libssl-dev openssl build-essential python-dev autotools-dev libicu-dev libbz2-dev libboost-dev libboost-all-dev
git clone https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit.git
cd bitshares_toolkit
git submodule init
git submodule update
cmake .
make

tried compiling on Ubuntu 12.04

first it wanted an updated cmake so I downloaded the binaries from the website.

then it wanted an updated GCC, and I'm still working on trying to make that work.

tried running it under wine, and it seemed to install okay, ran the program and it took me to the screen where you create a password for your wallet. but it cut out into the main screen before I was done typing. this concerned me so I un-installed everything.

so... Ubuntu 12.04 users: don't bother unless you feel up to upgrading GCC (which is harder than it looks)- the package gcc-4.8-base did nothing.

anyone know if there's a GCC repository anywhere?

Excellent.  This is very exciting.

UPDATE: This error was happening because I was trying to create an account with my founder name.  I used some other names and it worked.

Note that this was create with the CLI interface on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.  The QT client had some compile issues.

Is there going to be a thread for reporting issues?  For example when creating an account:

LottoShares / Re: Honoring AGS
« on: July 18, 2014, 03:19:48 pm »
Can someone help me understand if AGS awarded to Founders is part of the Genesis block for LottoShares?  I'm very excited to see this DAC launch and the enthusiasm for it on Bitcointalk.


Thank you.

Yes, but they are all awarded to an address that I3 controls because they have the magic spreadsheet.
(Not everyone had registered a founder key)


Understood, thank you.
