[ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage

It worked. I have entered all the words of the seed.
Scanning the Blockchain...

Now the scanning is done and I should enter my password. I did this. Now comes the message

Wallet Locked

Enter your wallet password to unlock the wallet.

Unlock
error when calling /wallet/unlock: provided encryption key is incorrect


I'm sure I entered the correct password for the wallet. I had always signed up with this password until yesterday. That is impossible. What am I doing wrong.
Thanks Hakkane, for your time...

No, don't use your password: use your recovery seed again to unlock it. When deleting the wallet, the password get deleted too. The password is something local, the seed is global

Unlock first using your seed again and then set up a new custom password if you want

[typsen]

I understand that correctly, when the wallet is done with the synchronization of Blockchain and I am asked to enter my password, I should once again enter the seed.
Once again all the words ...

Yes, paste the seed again (the 29 words)... Your old password does not work anymore when you delete the wallet

If you want to use a custom password again, you can create it AFTER unlocking your wallet with the sed the first time

[typsen]

Okay, all right. Everything works again. I can only say thank you. You have helped me a lot. Thanks alot...
One more thing, which probably brought me into this situation. Not all payouts from the pool Siamining.com had arrived in my wallet. But now everything is there. If that happens again. What can I do. Do I have to enter a command in the wallet?

It is my pleasure to help  

Yes, sometimes the wallet might become "blind" for a transaction, it is a known bug. If that thing happens again, do exactly what you have done today: delete your wallet folder and use your recovery seed to force Sia to re-scan the blockchain

Be aware that most of the "web wallets" for Sia out there are just scams that will steal whichever funds you send there. We had in the past months dozens of cases of users scammed. Do not trust any web wallet, only the official Sia-UI that can be downloaded from the official Sia website: https://sia.tech/get-started

[typsen]

I think that's even different, a little easier. Maybe I can help a little, or give a little Info if the problem often appears. I had contact with someone from Sia. He told me to reload the Blockchain, or wait, here's the message

However, you don't need to worry about the missing transaction. If you search that transaction id in blockchain explorer ( https://explore.sia.tech or https://explorer.siahub.info ), you will most likely see it's there. That means that your transaction is in your wallet in blockchain but Sia-UI was blind to this transaction due to bug in past version. Version 1.3.2 should fix it, but if it already happened, you need to fix it manually.

To do so, you need to reload wallet from your seed and let it rescan the blockchain for your transactions. Proceed further only if you have your seed ready.

Go into the terminal and write: wallet init-seed --force
Once asked, enter your seed and then wait for rescanning to finish.
After that you should see correct balance and all your transactions.

Let me know if it helped or if you have any questions.

Best regards,


Probably you already know this possibility... wallet init-seed --force
Then it also reloads the blockchain... But then I have to somehow create on the function new wallet have pressed and then nothing more went,
but no matter, thanks again and have a nice weekend

Does anyone know why Siacoin is "Frozen" on Poloniex? I'm not looking to sell, I'm holding for a long time but I just noticed it was frozen you can't sell or buy it. Normally if wallet was down you still would be able to sell it. And it would tell you the wallet was down. This is strange.

I wonder whether web wallets are safe for users, investors, traders to use in such extremely risky environment like crypto ecosystem.
I usually store my coins in computer wallets, not web or online wallets because I think those one are more risky, under high risks of potential attacks from greedy hackers, who always try to stole as many coins as possible.

They had sync problem with blockchain at the moment, i guess it will be OK by evening Pacific time or may be tomorrow.

You are holding the coin on the wrong exchange.
We all know that poloniex is problematic with the wallet (deposit/withdrawal) but you are still not aware.

Siacoin is now more concentrated in Bittrex because the volume is larger. The big players also moved to Bittrex. Leave that rotten exchange and move your balance.

Agreed 6 weeks its been since the acquisition of Poloniex by Circle and nothing has been improved.

A very interesting project, there is a bounty program but the information is still a little. I will wait for more information bounty.

I've never had a problem with Poloniex. But I have noticed they have had issues with wallets. But sense I was just holding I didn't think to move it. I had never seen it actually say "Frozen" that kind of made me nervous. So with that being said I will take your advise and move it to my Bittrex account. Once it is freed up. Thanks for the response.

Trading siacoin or any other crypto without significant investments and good knowledge is a waste of money and time

[JFry83]

Hey guys. I was researching your coin and I heard this interesting take – Sia caters to enterprise and not retail, is it true? Was that your original idea, if that is indeed the case? Any community members what to share their opinion on whether or not Sia is suitable for retail?

but if we have true knowledge, we must be willing to waste time for it its for siacoin and other your coin trading.
