How can I import a paper wallet into the Emercoin desktop wallet?

Any help is appreciated!

How can I import a paper wallet into the Emercoin desktop wallet?

Any help is appreciated!

In the Debug window in the desktop wallet, use the command importprivkey <emercoinprivkey> [label]

for example:

importprivkey 6RADQpd6fn1pXEy3cYBUVRqHauZeKaqn258r4geRGHRvyAa7PGE paperwallet1

Be sure to copy the private key exactly as shown on the paper wallet. Perhaps there is some software that can read in the QR code and save you having to type it but I don't know what software to suggest.

Obviously you should not reveal your wallet's private key!

Be aware that if you spend part of the funds from the paper wallet address, the change will go to a new address and the paper wallet address becomes empty (even if you only spend a part of it). So make sure to back up the new wallet, or otherwise send the remaining balance back to the paper wallet's address.

I hope this helps!

Awesome, thank you so much Emerger!

Just want to let you know that we are running a Emercoin community on EmercoinTalk.org since a couple of weeks. Everyone who is interested is warmly welcome to join the discussion.

How can I fix this?

Which is the first number or letter of your private key?

there are some slash in the key when you put it?

sure you are not trying to import the public key instead of provate key?close the wallet open it and try again, let us know if it works now

Yes, I am sure about that.

It seems like the actual command is:


importprivkey <emercoinprivkey> [label]


What do I have to enter as a label?

Thanks!

[pakage]

Hi guys,

Interesting coin you have here. I look forward to see your future developments!

I have put a password on my wallet, now even when I try and unlock for staking it says the wallet is locked and not receiving stake?

I'm using the Mac wallet.

Thoughts?

[Emerger]

importprivkey <emercoinprivkey> [label]

Thanks!

Yes I'm sorry I didn't realize the label might be mandatory. The label is just the note that helps you identify the imported address within your wallet. So you can put anything. e.g:

importprivkey <emercoinprivkey> paperwallet1

Perhaps you need to unlock your wallet first (if you have added a passphrase to it)? That seems to be a possible cause.

[m4nki]

Thanks, that might be the cause!

Trying to unlock my wallet, I am entering my passphrase here, but wenn I click "Ok", the pop up shuts down and the wallet remains locked.

Have you tried importing the private key again after entering the passphrase? Perhaps the lock symbol just isn't being updated. Otherwise I don't know and someone else may need to jump in with any ideas.

Same problem for me. doesn't stake or unlock. Using the Mac wallet after adding password.

[maxihatop]

This is strange.

Try use console, with command:

walletpassphrase YOUR_PASS 999999

[pakage]

This is strange.

Try use console, with command:

walletpassphrase YOUR_PASS 999999

Perhaps I was just getting confused. The lock icon remains in the bottom right, but the lock pops open slightly indicating it is actually unlocked.

When I hover over the lock it reports the correct status (unlocked or unlocked for minting). So it seems like it is working for me but i was just not noticing the change in the icon.

However I am not receiving any staking coins?

Hey package,


Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have witnessed this issue before myself when the actual change to minting does not kick in right away graphically. As long as the lock status does say that it is unlocked for block minting only, you will be minting away in the background.


Now, to have a better idea on exactly how your minting session is progressing there is a tool (As they say, we have an app for that):


1. Head over to the Emercoin blockchain explorer located here: https://emercoin.mintr.org/


2. Search for your EMC address(es) that are currently staking to bring it up


3. Run the staking calculator tool (the 3rd purple icon at the top, in the shape of a leaf) for your EMC addresss


4. You will see the results come back on your minting %, coin age, and many other variables.




Let us know if you have any issues with the tool itself or in the minting process. Glad to have you aboard Package!

Herewith, my ShadowSOCKS - SSFX Servers Project (beta) which currently has some free 'lifetime' (one year duration beta) passkey's available for BitcoinTalk Senior members, Hero members and those of Legendary status.

- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410622.0

I'm posting in this thread as I will be accepting Emercoin (EMC) as a payment method for the main production server passkey's.

Also, the main Russian based server (and current beta server) uses OpenNIC DNS and can therefore resolve .emc domain names.

Cheers!
