1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple and 20 XRP minimum on: December 03, 2020, 08:18:38 PM
there doesn't seem to be any other way to store a minimum of 20 XRP on a new wallet, what about your old wallet? Is there a problem with your old wallet so you want to replace it with a new one?

I'd been using Toast, but development has stopped, so I need to find a new one.

Anybody know of an XRP wallet for linux that can import private keys?

Just an update...I chose the Atomic wallet for my purposes, as it supports everything I mentioned except for iota.

I'm also leaving bitcoin in my electrum wallet. so I've gone from 7 wallets to 3.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Ripple and 20 XRP minimum on: December 02, 2020, 10:31:29 PM
Hello folks.

I want to change the wallet that I use to hold my XRP, but of course there is the rule that any wallet (or is account the correct term?) must have at least 20 XRP in it. Which means, if I want to change wallets, I have to leave 20 XRP behind.

Is there a workaround for this problem? The wallet I want to use does not support importing private keys.

Thanks.

Hello folks.

I hold the following cryptos: bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, cardano, ripple, iota and stellar. I haven't bought or sold in almost 3 years; just holding on to what I have.

Anyway, I'm a linux user and have 7 different pieces of software for managing those 7 coins. I very much want to simplify things.

I don't mind having separate software for bitcoin, but is there a linux desktop wallet that supports most/all of the other coins?

Thanks.

Hmmm. You'll have to rebuild the DB, I suppose. I'd recommend posting logs first before doing that, just to be safe.

Also, just confirming, are you running 0.96.5?

I don't remember the version offhand...may have been 95.x.

I'm probably not going to investigate or rectify the situation, as the transfer took place, so I don't need to use the armory wallet any more.

Is Armory fully synced with the blockchain? The text in the lower-right corner should be green and should say something like "Connected (565000 Blocks)".

Yes.

I should add - this was done from a watch-only wallet; the transaction had been signed from an offline armory instance.
7  Bitcoin / Armory / how to make armory aware of transaction on: February 18, 2019, 12:07:35 AM
So, I attempted to submit a transaction via armory (transferring all bitcoin out of wallet), and the submit failed for some unknown reason. I grabbed the transaction from the log file and submitted it via a web site, and it was processed properly.

However, now armory still shows the bitcoins in the wallet, because it apparently isn't aware of the transaction. Is there any way to get armory to indicate the proper balance of 0?

Thanks.
8  Economy / Trading Discussion / considering getting out... on: February 05, 2018, 12:38:08 PM
Not sure what to make of the last month...it hasn't been a sudden selloff. It's been a consistent downtrend. Crypto portfolio has been cut in half over that time.

I bought last June, so I'm still in the black. Wondering if it's time to take my profits and watch the value of everything continue to fall...
9  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: determining if wallet file is encrypted on: January 07, 2018, 10:46:54 PM
Do you mean by reading the raw content of the file? This is the header unpacking code:

https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/blob/master/armoryengine/PyBtcWallet.py#L2034

Is there a way to determine this by just dumping the file, using od (or a similar command line tool)? I'm not familiar w/ python, if that's what that code is written in.
10  Bitcoin / Armory / determining if wallet file is encrypted on: January 07, 2018, 05:19:54 PM
Hello folks.

Is there a way to tell if a wallet is encrypted merely by inspecting the file?
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: if only goal is price appreciation, cast a wide net? on: January 04, 2018, 02:39:27 AM
I am diversified (more than 30 coins)

I have several top 50 coins but most of my "income" comes from the new coins.

How do you manage storage of so many coins? Do you leave them on the exchange?
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / if only goal is price appreciation, cast a wide net? on: January 03, 2018, 06:54:50 PM
Hello folks.

Before I get told not to gamble large amounts of money, let me assure you that I'm not. Crypto currencies are less than 5% of my portfolio.

With that out of the way, what do folks think is an effective way to hit the next jackpot? There are 2 extremes - place a bet on a single coin, and hope you picked the big winner (ie. if you had bought ripple a year ago), or throw a small amount at a lot of coins.

I currently own 7 of the top 10 coins by market cap. This diversification has occurred over the last few weeks (I previously only owned bitcoin and ethereum). Not wanting to invest new money, my current plan is to sell small amounts of bitcoin and buy anything that enters the top 10. I don't think bitcoin is going to falter, but I do think the days of astronomical gains are over.

Does this seem rational? Are there other strategies that are generally preferred?

Thanks.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: bitcoin cash vs other altcoins on: December 15, 2017, 08:57:37 PM
These five coins are a lot better.If you hold these five coins 1 year, I'm hoping you'll become a millionaire.Bitcoin cash good coins can hold for a long time.

Just clarify everybody - I'm not day trading these coins. I'm putting together a portfolio to hold. I'm simply looking to diversify, and wondering if other coins are a better choice than bitcoin cash.

Thanks for all the replies so far!
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: bitcoin cash vs other altcoins on: December 15, 2017, 01:15:12 PM
i'd say keep holding your BCH and sell your LTC for Monero

Can you explain why, please? Thanks.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / bitcoin cash vs other altcoins on: December 15, 2017, 02:13:44 AM
Hello.

I currently hold 5 coins (bitcoin, eth, bitcoin cash, litecoin and iota). I'm interested in diversifying further into ripple, monero or cardano.

Instead of buying w/ cash, I'm considering exchanging bitcoin cash for one of these new coins. Do you think that's a good idea? Does bitcoin cash have a brighter future than the coins I mention above?

Thanks.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: is coinomi safe for accessing BTG? on: December 01, 2017, 02:38:42 PM
Well, I started trying to sweep my private keys from armory to coinomi, and discovered that coinomi cannot handle the format the armory backup provides, which is the chain root key (18 four letter sequences).

The coinomi help page says I'd need to type in the private keys for each of the addresses my wallet used. Yuck - that would be tedious and extremely error prone.

Is there a way around this difficulty?

Just thought I would let folks know I found a solution to this issue - QR Code Extension for chrome. It converts text to QR code, which I then scanned w/ coinomi.

Yes, this is safe procedure. Just stop using the address after that.
With coinomi you can claim both BCH and BTG ... pay attention to sweep the key to correct wallet.


Which address should I stop using? And why?

Thanks.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: is coinomi safe for accessing BTG? on: November 30, 2017, 10:19:08 PM
I don't really have experience with coinomi but you could always transfer your bitcoin out first.. before you get your btg.

Yes, I've already done this.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / is coinomi safe for accessing BTG? on: November 30, 2017, 09:27:36 PM
Hello folks.

I'd like to sell my BTG which were acquired via the hard fork. I have transferred my bitcoins from the pre-fork addresses, so the private key from my original bitcoin wallet would not provide access to my bitcoins. However, the addresses from my original wallet still hold bitcoin cash and bitcoin gold.

I've found an article online that utilizes coinomi (android app) for getting access to my BTG (my original wallet does not support BTG). As part of the process, I'd need to sweep the private key from my original bitcoin wallet into the coinomi wallet.

Is there a better/safer way to do this? Or is this an acceptable solution?

Thanks!
