These are the steps I took to unlock the Ballet NFT wallet in Free Wallet to be able to send or sweep the address for BTC, XCP and various xChain NFT’s stored on the address: 1. Go to https://www.balletcrypto.org/#/2. Scratch card to reveal 20-character passphrase 3. Enter passphrase 4. Peel sticker to reveal BP38 private key 5. Scan or copy/paste PK and decrypt BP38 PK This reveals the wallet’s Public Key (compressed, 66 characters) and Private Key Hexadecimal Format (64 characters), as well as WIF Compressed Private Key for each address, notably both legacy and segwit BTC addresses. Both addresses share the same PK. *Surprisingly, this action also reveals all other supported addresses and PK’s on the wallet, which includes 20 other coins that Ballet supports in their REAL issue wallets. 6. In Free Wallet (desktop version), go to address QR icon and select “changetaddress” from dropdown 7. Under options in pop-up, select “Import Private Key” 8. Enter either Ballet wallet’s master PK HEX -64 or BTC WIF Compressed PK (note: either key activates the legacy address by default) With more or less of the last three steps, this was also successfully completed in the mobile version of FreeWallet. Happy to report that the Ballet NFT wallet works for my needs as a form of cold storage of xChain NFT collectibles, and as long as the wallet isn’t damaged (I’d prefer that it wasn’t plastic, maybe future issues as the popularity of xChain NFTs grows will be metal), seems like a viable long-term storage solution for assets. Nice write up - in theory you could take one of the metal btc cards with their legacy address and do the same thing |

is that he private key under that black stripe?
yes. I blacked it out for the photo thought so just wanted to confirm that the card came with one. |

reminds me of the coldcard one I have but I cannot use that as do not have the private key for the address associated to that card

I do confirm - whoever wins this auction, I will be in contact with and will ship one of the above units to them directly - or I can pass it along to minerjones for consolidation/reshipping if desired. |

lot 1 - .0002 BTC
would look good next to my copper version.
I would ask OGNasty what that addy is to on Lot 4 but he has me blocked for some reason. NVM - it is the donation address for nastyfans - I am amazed that all 30k seats are not at distribution level considering the donation address has received 481 BTC over the years and amazingly makes payouts as recently as last week. so maybe SOME seats are getting distributions. My guess, the seats OG holds himself.
Mopar can you explain this a little better? He’s spreading FUD. That’s why I blocked him since this has been explained to him so many times now he’s either incapable of grasping it, or willfully trolling. Obviously all seats receive distributions. Everything is public and documented. Minted seats start accumulating distributions when they’re purchased and seats attached to a coin. Before that, the seat or seats are owned by someone else and they receive the distributions. I don’t have a room full of engraved minted seats nor are seats set aside for coins, they are purchased from another user and attached to the coin when engraved. That’s when the coin starts receiving distributions (which are paid when the threshold is met). I’ve explained this hundreds of times as has nonnakip. All seats receive every weekly distribution unless the owner has them set to not receive distributions. All coins have seats attached to them. The seats are purchased from another user and attached to the coins when ordered. Before being attached to a purchased minted seat, seats are owned by someone else and that person receives the distributions. That’s two more attempts at explanations. What the fudder doesn’t seem to grasp is that minted seats have a threshold before payment is sent on the blockchain to keep dust from accumulating (Google Bitcoin dust if you don’t know what that means) and that seats are owned by another user before they are minted to a coin. Not all coins hold the same amount because they’re minted at different times, sometimes many years apart. how is asking questions spreading fud? I have not spread any fud. The problem is that it takes asking you the same thing over and over to get the full answer - all I have done is simply asked for explanations. Most of the time you ignore the questions or simply repeat your same answer as before - if it did not make sense the first time, it wont make sense the second time. Also, you very rarely actually give any questions a direct answer, you deflect and you speak in circles. At other times, you blame nonakip and he is quite simply and frankly, your brother. I guess you are just living up to your "nasty" name by blaming me and calling me names simply for asking questions - going as far as blocking me and removing your positive trust on me even though we have had several dealings and all went the way they should but now because I ask questions you no longer trust me I guess. You are a self proclaimed millionaire and I am sure a lot of that came from the very people on these forums who you will block if they continue to ask questions. My statement above is because some of the addresses receiving distributions from the donation address do not appear to be seats as they do not start with "1Nasty" and the part about your seats probably getting the distributions is because (I believe you have even claimed it - that you hold the majority of the seats) and since you have been in it since the beginning, it only makes sense that your seats would be the ones receiving the distributions as you have been accumulating since the beginning. I think you see FUD when there is none or maybe you claim it to get out of being responsible and explaining. I can see the donation address has received 481 BTC and has sent out 481 BTC - the top seat according to the nastyfans analyzer has only 0.00098450 BTCSo, can you specify where someone can see a detailed list of all distributions? Or is the nasty fans analyzer incorrect? |

quick question - maybe someone can answer as I cannot ask ognasty directly since he has me blocked.
if the address 1NastyFRkeUTmMdbMmzggDVTQA6r3ibUoX is the donation address for nastyfans - and is to be used for distribution for the seats - and it has sent/received almost 500 btc - does all of it get allocated to the seats? I mean 30k seats give or take and 481 btc would be like .016 btc per seat still.
the last txn on the address was pymts to several addresses - 4 of which are other 1Nasty addresses - so are some seats getting distributions while others are not?

from their own site... Therefore, we urge not to erase the hologram to preserve the original appearance of the coin. The face value of 1000 Satoshi (0.00001 BTC) is insufficient to cover the cost of the transaction.
what is the point of loading a coin with a value that can and will never be withdrawn? |
|
|

thanks for the response.
still, 9 months of load value and card cost in a 6 week period can be a lot for some to come up with on a short notice and it would be terrible to miss a month/quarter if they miss the time frame.
Yes indeed. I am aware of this. Maybe releasing a quarter per month makes more sense. I went to certain extents to accommodate customers in the past and unfortunately it contributed to build this whole situation on my end.  I totally understand! and please understand - I am not complaining at all! just putting it out there. your cards are well loved and appreciated by the community. |

after about 45 mins on the phone and going thru 3 or 4 people - the best I got is that customs is the hold up and that they do not recommend using "expedited" shipping in cases like this as customs will almost always delay the package beyond the time frame UPS provides and that UPS cannot do anything about it.

Hey all~
Anybody have any knowledge of whether or not Ballet intends to support their NFT wallets beyond funding/sending BTC in app?
I bought a few of these thinking that I could store CounterParty asset collections on them, and while in my experimenting I've been able to transfer BTC, XCP and CP NFTs onto the address, I'm not sure that anything more than BTC is supported in the transfer off of the wallet - at least in app. Have also had no luck importing these particular wallets onto Ballet's desktop version to date.
For example, I can export the address as "view only" into Free Wallet and see that all of my transferred assets are there (incl. the NFT that came with the card), but am obviously unable to sweep the card from the view only address, nor can I see the assets other than BTC in the Ballet app to transfer to another address. Perhaps if I peel the card and enter the PK into the API Keys paste bin in Free Wallet will do the trick (?), but I'm not that familiar yet and don't want to mess this up :-|
Anybody have any ideas or info on if Ballet intends to take this further?
Thanks~
they were supposed to be working with an integration of XCP into the app - but have not been successful as of yet - and that is one of the issues that caused a huge delay in the release - the other issue was that ballet had moved to segwit addresses and the freewallet/xcp uses legacy - that issue was resolved. But the cards in general are specific to their currency - they are not like the metal ballet wallets which allow all types of currencies - these are similar to the PURE in that sense. I think the idea is that you can use freewallet/counterparty to view/verify that the NFT's are there but that as long as the PK is secure on the card then the physical item is what holds the virtual item. And yes - if you put the key into freewallet then it would not be a view only, the NFT would be there then and no longer locked to the card. |

0.0045 on every lot please
This was not valid for lots 1, 2, 4 or 5. |

are there "NFC's" for people who bought the early crypto bonds (referring to the 3 card set that was auctioned off)
and for the history coldkeys - those of us that had a subscription, are we able to pick up where we left off? I have Jan thru Mar 2021. And if so, are we going to be required to pay for the 3 quarters all at once - that will be a hefty bill to pay for the cards and funding all at once.

just using the ballet import way would net you bch, bsv, btg, bcd and bch abc (xec)
25 bch = 7152 USD
25 bsv = 2133 USD
25 btg = 709 USD
250 bcd = 199 USD
25 mil xec = 1807 USD
this is about 12,000 USD
of course there would be network fees, conversion fees etc but thats just the top 5
edit - if you import into ballet - DO NOT use their conversion, it fucks up and takes all the coins on the same address - tried it twice and this happened. So if you do import it, xfer each coin out to an exchange then convert.

Yeah these have been around for a while now, but there's one or two of the altcoins I'm not sure if I can remember ever seeing. Appreciate you sharing with everyone. They also have pretty cool stands if I'm not mistaken and stands with lights that are pretty cool. I've yet to purchase any coins from them so I'm curious if anyone in here has and what they thought about the quality of the coins?
Have a couple sets of these laying around. Will photo at some point and post. They are not low quality imo. Good product. I have bought/used his holos for various DIY coins - I like the window size on his holos. edit - I have the MonetaryUnit coin as well. |

I dont think they are "printing" over US/Canadian coins
these are 1 oz FS rounds being made to look similar to the National currencies but then with a Bitcoin theme. at least that is how I see it.
This is exactly what they are doing. I have seen coins being made like this for all sorts of different themes. This is definitely not anything new. I doubt it’s illegal as you aren’t destroying the coins. Kialara’s Thug Bills kind of clarified this where as long as you’re not destroying them it’s not illegal. These are far from the first of their kind. I’ve got a couple ruthenium 1 oz silver eagle bitcoin coins and some JFK half dollar bitcoin coins I bought 3-4 years ago. really? I would think they would just make new coins. I stand corrected. as for US currency - I thought it was illegal to "deface" it even? edit - just re-read the law concerning defacing and it states that the crime is if you render the currency "unfit to be re-issued" so it has to be usable as US currency still. would these coins classify as "usable" still? |
