[ANN][rICO]Antshares Blockchain Mainnet is ONLINE!

Will Antshares get the ability to store on a Ledger Nano S hardware wallet?

The new international Binance exchange which appears to be listing NEO on the 24th of July seems not to be charging any fees whatsoever for NEO initially until the NEO trading volume becomes extremely large. This means trading NEO at Binance is free for the time being! From what I understood though Binance intends to charge a fee of 0.1% for others, so at a later point in time that probably will also become the fee for NEO. Binance also indicated that it will add ANC is there is a lot for demand for it, but it will not do so just yet.

Any news ?

So does anybody have any idea to the advantage of running a bookkeeping node with 10,000+ ANS vs just holdings the ANS in a wallet with regards to collecting ANC/NEO?

Ok, I see they talk about it, but now where is it clear bookkeeping actually accumulates more ANC/NEO then just holding in a wallet, though you think it would.

Got my coins from Bittrex. Almost all of them. Made a backup from my wallet and restored it and it worked perfect. Now i can sleep with a good feeling.

Just one more question. if i send more coins to my wallet in the next weeks do i need to make a new backup that includes the added coins or can i now just use the current backup file forever?

You only need to make a new backup when you add new private keys to your wallet. If you always just use the same address already in your backed up wallet tou dont need to make a new backup. The exception is where you create wallets with key words. Best though to make a backup after each new private key is added to be safe.

I believe the Whitepaper states that bookkeeping nodes can operate without charging fees if 2/3 of the bookkeeping nodes agree. I think that that might be the case for the time being. In the long run all NEO holders should receive dividends derived from transaction fees on the network (separate from the ANC/GAS generation over the 22 years). The bookkeeping nodes will in all likelyhood later on simply receive a larger cut of the dividends as reward for running the blockchain. It could be that the bookkeeping nodes will in turn hand over a certain amount of those extra profits to those NEO holders who voted for those bookkeeping nodes. This would then likely be negotiated per node.

For ANS holders here is a pretty simple, very helpful calculator so you can approximate how quickly you will accumulate Neo/Ant Coins :

You are welcome, enjoy

Great prg!
Thanks a lot!

Any idea why with a window wallet open 24h and with 11000 ANS i get just 2,5 to 3 ANC per day?

thanks

You get 11000 ANC/GAS over 22 years with 11000 ANS/NEO (but the majority of it will be generated in the first few years as stated in the Whitepaper). We should however also be receiving dividends later on in time. Let's say an individual registers an asset on the blockchain for 10000 ANC.....that 10000 ANC will then be divided amongst all ANS/NEO holders and the bookkeeping nodes. So as the blockchain gets used more (also dependent on the fees that will be set), then the dividends will increase over time, whilst the basic ANC generation will fall. Also keep in mind that in special circumstances those dividends could also be paid in other currencies instead of ANC. It is in the interest of ANS/NEO holders not to set the fees too high as otherwise the network will not be used, but also not too low as otherwise there is no profit. Initially however it likely will be in their interest to charge minimal fees for optimal network growth.

Also keep in mind that you do not need to leave your wallet open as ANS/NEO holder. It will not make any difference whether you leave your wallet open or closed unless you are running a bookkeeping node (which you certainly could do with that amount) and even if you are running a bookkeeping node, it depends on what the bookkeeping nodes have decided on the fees to define the amount of extra ANC earned.

That seems a little low, and you don't need your wallet open. I would do an exact 24 hour measurement. Also make sure to let your wallet synch up and add up all the ANC. It usually takes mine ~5 minutes to do so if I check every few days.

Thanks a lot for your detailed answer!!!

Any link on how to setup and run a bookkeeping node?

[eggsome]

You would require a significant amount of ANS/NEO AFAIK. How much of them I am unsure .

I am not running a node myself, so I cannot offer any extra help than that, but from what I understand you need 10,000 ANS/NEO to run a node. The rebranding should be done on the 24th, so probably around that time I would not be surprised if more information on this also becomes available in the West.

New to ANS and have been waiting (1 hour) on a small send from Bittrex to the Antshares Android app (very cool).

EDIT   (still 0 ANS in new droid wallet 3 hours ago)

Address: AbqGPDkMqqjqBsbN2mzSVCkJsM6CSdFTHZ
TxId: e1fb764d1b6eeae2da9acf0d15029ca033230069064218921f5e6b2a7eebcdbe

EDIT - Is it a syncing issue? Seems stuck at 98% - screenshot here: https://file.io/WSdUKb ((((Don't click Link unless serious))))  

EDIT - Okay, now see Recent Transaction(s), but 0 balance still. I only made one wallet.

FINAL - Okay, success!! I'll be continuing my education with Antshares. I noticed ANC just now, and assume it's a community token.

Hi guys,

I have a question (Windows wallet).
I just send some ANS to myself, because I wanted to claim the ANC. The first transaction, the 1 ANS trial, failed it seems.
In my wallet it says I got 500 ANS and 0.5 ANC. When I want to transfer ANS it says my balance is only 450. I am sure the 500 value SHOULD be true.

Is this a known error?

[RobbieDK]

Additionally; I am having more problems now! I clicked rebuild index and after that ALL the information is lost, also my ANS.

What do I need to do? How can I go through all the blocks to get my ANS back?

Your synchronization needs to pass by the block in which your transaction took place and it consists of two numbers which both need to pass the block at which your transaction took place. As long as that has not happened your ANS total will not show up in your wallet. What can potentially help is first letting the program synchronize and then load the wallet or simply restart the program in case it appears to be stuck. If the transaction did show up in one of the two Antshares blockchain explorers there should be no issue (such as this one: https://www.antchain.xyz/ ). You can also read the FAQ on Reddit for more information.

I doubt that anything is lost. You probably just need to synchronize for everything to show up. Also read the Reddit FAQ for more information (https://www.reddit.com/r/Antshares/comments/6j7lwu/faq_collection_thread/ ) and alternatively look back a few pages here. There is a lot of information in this thread itself including ways to speed up the synchronization process.

In case you did setup multiple wallet accounts, then ANS numbers might appear different as the total amount is matched from the different wallets, so I suspect you created multiple ones, but the case should still be that no ANS are lost (even if it does not show up immediately). Make sure you do not delete that .db file (actually making a backup is best).

When will the wallet be fixed?
