Managed to get the wallet working apparently (wwhich I thought was the problem)

Then i saw the block explorer and the transaction that was supposed to be processed does not even appear on the blockchain

The dumping or ARDR has just started... impossible to guess what value will the market assign to this "asset" that is, in fact, a doubling of the NXT number of "coins" outstanding... at present bittrex pice of 3000 sat the market has alreadi given it quite a valuation for something at this point is just vapor under the very distant and considerably vague premise that NXT developers will somehow come up in a year or so with some private company that will sell so-called "child chains" to companies and individuals. Since this scheme actually brings nothing to owners od the ARDR asset, it hard to imagine that the current price will remain at this level... just like it is that the price of NXT won't continue the downward spiral to mid three figures... or lower.

I hope I'm wrong but things are looking pretty grim out there.
