how to get BTS - I installed BitShares2-light and there are already Bitcoins in

[Permie]

"BTC" in this case is exactly the same as OPEN.BTC

You've done it correctly, i tihnk

Try and buy some BTS as I described above.

your screenshot shows that you have 0.09BTC. this is correct

On the bottom left of your screenshot it says "balance: 0.0999BTC". Click on those numbers.

Then click "highest bid" which is directly underneath

Then click "Sell"

thanks so much for your help...

I am much further now but still I can find the:

"In the top left corner of this new screen, click OPEN.BTC <-> BTS. It should then switch to saying BTS <-> OPEN.BTC"

I Only have BTC:BTS

see screenshot

can you please help me again?

Thank you


what am I doing wrong...there is also no search field when I click Find Markets?

Do you have "open.btc"?

If so; on OpenLedger or bitshares.org/wallet go to EXCHANGE (top menu bar)

Then on the top right click "Find Markets"

Search "open.btc"

And then click the "bts" button just underneath where you typed "open.btc"

In the top left corner of this new screen, click OPEN.BTC <-> BTS. It should then switch to saying BTS <-> OPEN.BTC

Find the box on the page that says "buy BTS"

Click "balance" to autofill the order form with your entire OPEN.BTC balance

Then click "Lowest Ask" to autofill the price at which you are most likely to make a quick buy

Click "Buy" and wait a minute or two for your order to execute


Done

=========================================

In future, you may find it easier to use a "Bridge" service to get your btc into bts.
Navigate to "Deposit/Withdraw"

Choose "Bridge" (not gateway)

Under "Transfer Service" dropdown menu, select "BlockTrades"

Under "deposit" just below, select your input cryptocurrency. In this case BTC. Then select "BTS" as the output currency.

A BTC address will the be provided on the right hand side.
Send your BTC to this address, and then blocktrades (a good reputable service) will automatically send the corresponding amount of BTS to your account

You may want to send a small amount of bitcoin to this address to test that it works. It may take a few hours, as bitcoin confirmation times are being very slow recently

I hope that helps
