Can I find account name by the BTSX address?

[Simeon II]

I need the name for this one:
BTSX4uyNs42DY8B62o2Z3xbdMo4boEhucPnxmTCrj4GezESt3Z1rTE

But also how to do it in general.

If thats the destination of a titan transaction you just cannot tell the name

and it's not part of the genesis block .. so: no chance

How are people depositing in BTER then? That's the only info they provide.

Does it works with Linux with account # and no name? Sorry stupid win user I am.

You add it as a local contact account first and then send to it just like a registered account.  The command line is wallet_add_contact_account <user name> <key>
In the GUI you go to your account select transfer, and then to the right of the contact name entry box there should be a green button with a + and a little person.  Click that to add a local contact account.

**edit**  I just tried and bter is already registered under another key, so it wont allow you to create a local account that conflicts with a registered account.  just name it something that hasn't already been registered.

Saw the edit. worked up to now.

Invalid account name!

-------------------
I think I get the same error from the GUI.

I think you get the problem because account name bter already registered in blockchain, select another name, to make it's simple I suggest to prefix all your local account as for example local-bter

names need to be all lowercase.  I just tried with bter.com in the gui and it worked for me.

**testz idea is better than mine

[Simeon II]

Yes, saw the pups edit.

1. Read netiquette
2. Calm down
3. read about titan and why we are doing as we are
4. read github issues and forums posts and realize that the devs are working on allowing to send to an address
