There are known issues with some of the wallet formats: https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/issues/90

You may have to import private keys manually; there may be some guidance at: http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_Solutions#Importing_February_28th_snapshot

Imported from multibit, key imported successfully but my balance remains 0

any hints for me?

As I understood the issue you cant import raw keys. It should be converted to WIF file.
Did you convert raw keys to WIF file (wallet import/export file) if not please check this

I have same issue with Armory and I have manage to get my balance.

Hi Testz,

Tried doing the same with a private key from electrum. Says the key imported successfully but my balance remains 0... Does this just take time? The "rescan Blockchain" Box was ticked when i imported the private key.

Cheers!

edit: Can someone Clarify for me? Do AGS entitle you to Bitsharesx up until the july 19 cutoff? or only up to the Feb 28 snapshot?


only feb 28. The rest entitle you to all future DACs.
Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

I was trying to import a electrum wallet. I saved electrums's default_wallet file and was trying to import that.

Electrum wallet import at BitShares has a problems, export private key and import it into BitSharesX, it's works for one of my friend.

I got the following message back:
