I want to import a private key to my new installed Emercoin wallet. I tried to do so over the client console but unlike in Bitcoin wallet there is no import private key function or something similar. Can someone tell me please how to import private keys?

As I remember it's the same as bitcoin-qt? Open the debug console and type importprivkey "youremercoinprivkey"

If I do it like this I always get the error message

Invalid private key encoding (code -5)

I tried it without double quotes, too, but with the same result.

I found this thread where it says that the key could be BIP38 encrypted which is not supported by Bitcoin core and probably also from Emercoin wallet. Any idea how to decrypt it?

I created the key pair using a paper wallet generator.

I remember this problem happening before and this was the answer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=362513.msg16835114;topicseen#msg16835114

It suggests a possible solution is to get an old version of emercoin-qt and then upgrade to the latest, but keep the same wallet.dat. .. but I am not sure where you can download version v0.3.7 anymore.

Apologies I can't be of much more immediate help. If you can't work it out then please contact one of the developers by private message or ask in the Emercoin slack.

I love how this app lets us choose our own emc server, and is open-source, rather than a proprietary system. I will try and test it in the coming days!

[BitcoinArsenal]

Code:

$ git checkout v0.3.7emc

I am not familiar with Git. I found the sources here https://github.com/emercoin/emercoin/releases/tag/v0.3.7emc
However I only have a Macbook available at the moment. Is there a ready to use dmg file for v0.3.7?

I found a very interesting recording of a telephone interview with Daniel Haudenschild, who is described as a Partner to Ernst & Young on their website (https://webforms.ey.com/ch/en/industries/financial-services/ey-contact-implementing-new-regulatory-requirements), on Soundcloud dated 6th June 2017, just after this Hashcoins/Polybius ICO scam started. The interviwee is a long time Bitcoin adopter & is very knowledgable in the field - this comes across very clearly in the interview with the questions he asks, which Daniel Haudenschild fails on all fronts to give an answer to.  Have a listen (ignore the first 30 seconds of silly music!):

https://soundcloud.com/junsethsworld/daniel-haudenschild-of-ernst-young-discusses-polybius-ico-6617-1151

There are several points of interest in the interview, here are a few that are relevent to this scam accusation:

1) 04.35 - Hashcoins confirmed as the people behind Polybius.
2) 06.30 - They don't hold a banking license.
3) 07.40 - Daniel Haudenschild admits that even he doesn't know who owns Polybius, which is not only strange coming from an "advisor" who works for Ernst & Young, but is also not disclosed in the white paper.
4) 09.10 - Ernst & Young did NOT endorse Polybius in any way & actions are underway to remove any Ernst & Young connection with Polybius. (*more on this below)
5) 09.30 - Hashcoins are a cludmining brand who sold miners that didn't exist.
6) 09.50 - Emercoin confirmed as partners & are described as a "non-sense project" (confirming the connection between Polybius, Hashcoins & Emercoin - which Emercoin have tried to deny on multiple occasions, despite me proving to them otherwise)

After the above & for the rest of the interview, Daniel Haudenschild seems unable to properly answer a single question, is often confused into silence & comes across as being pretty embarrassed about the whole thing. He must feel pretty stupid allowing not just himself, but the whole Ernst & Young brand name to be dragged into this whole scammy affair & I wouldn't be at all surprised if he loses his job at Ernst & Young for doing so.....

Wait, what's this?.......**MASSIVE UPDATE**

Daniel Haudenschild lost his job at Ernst & Young......

FT published a transcript of the above interview:

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2017/06/07/2189826/building-blockchain-banks-with-icos/    (regtoread)

Updated at the bottom with:

Update (June 8th, 18:43 London time): EY have got in touch to say that “At publication of this story, Daniel Haudenschild is no longer with EY and his comments concerning EY’s Blockchain strategy are incorrect.”

*Ernst & Young have since instructed Polybius to remove all reference of Ernst & Young from the Polybius website & advertising. Polybius removed the Ernst & Young profiles from their website but continue to use it for advertising on various forums, websites & so called "news" outlets on the web:

https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2017/05/15/swiss-ey-officially-joins-polybius-cryptobank-advisors-ico-follow/

https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2017/04/25/blockchain-startup-polybius-bank-setup-switzerland-ernst-young-agrees-advise/

If Ernst & Young are prepared to fire anyone who associates their brand with Polybius, I'm pretty sure they will also go after Hashcoins/Polybius too. I hope they do, it will save many people getting ripped of by Hashcoins again, but you can do your bit too by contacting Ernst & Young using the below link (Fraud Investigation):

https://webforms.ey.com/uk/en/services/assurance/fraud-investigation---dispute-services

Let's be honest here, if Polybius are prepared to lie about their association with Ernst & Young then brag about it on the web - what else are they lying about? Add to this the fact that Hashcoins (older crypto users will know about them) are behind all of this & you've got a scam the size of Mt Etna waiting to explode.

Another point to mention here is the OP of the Polybius thread, nixoid, aka: Andrey Zamovskiy, founder of Ambisafe. nixoid has posted many ICO posts lately & I've read reports on most of them being a similar type scam as Polybius. I'm not sure if Ambisafe are connected to Hashcoins/Polybius - but the fact that Ambisafe are promoting them here & on their website is cause enough for concern:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1848751.msg19734730#msg19734730

All these scam ICO's are the scurge of crypto. For every legit one, there are 100 scam ones. The sooner we cleanse crypto of them, the better crypto will be for it.

I'm sure I'll get more BS neg-reps from the multitude of Polybius shill accounts (they love posting about it on their thread:)), but I really don't care tbh. I believe that if I can stop one person getting scammed then it's worth it - & the intelligent forum users here will see straight through the false trust anyway.

OK. Bash away

[craslovell]

@IconFirm and anyone else who follows his line of thought, I will repeat one final time. Emercoin and Polybius are NOT the same organization. This is not some sort of conspiracy theory. You have no business posting attacks on Emercoin and its team on this thread. Your remarks are not affecting Emercoin development or operations which are continuing strong and always progressing and your complaints about the team are falling on deaf ears.

Also, Emercoin a "nonsense project"? That's actually somewhat funny. The tools the team have developed are as serious and useful as you'll find in any competing blockchain project.

Go bother a team/project that deserves it.

Good news, when will you launch for Android and WinPhone?

[blurryeyed]

Emercoin and Polybius are NOT the same organization.

You can assure everyone that this is the case by removing the Hashcoins scammers link from your website. After all, linking to & promoting proven scammers like them on your website is bound to create suspicion - don't you think?

No comment?

Well, seeing as Eugene Shumilov - Founder and CEO of Emercoin - has been so busy promoting Polybius & Hashcoins on medium lately:

https://medium.com/@emer.tech/polybius-bank-the-biggest-story-of-the-year-in-the-cryptocurrency-realm-634c9b1db57

..I can't say I'm surprised you can't (or won't) answer.

So it's true that Emercoin & Hashcoins/Polybius are the same team then.

Thanks for clarifying.

Thank you for clarifying that you're an alt account of IconFirm. No, we are not the same team. Would you like to join the Emer team chat and find out for yourself? Why don't you come to our Slack? You're simply not worth the response otherwise. We are here to announce news and development progress, not bicker with fellow forum members.

[blurryeyed]

Thank you for clarifying that you're an alt account of IconFirm.

You're confusing me for someone else I'm afraid..

Back on topic - prove what you say by removing the Hashcoins scammer links from your site.

Simple.

Forums are transparent & open, I like that everyone can see your reply. No slack for me.

Come on, don't be shy.

There's no confusion here as to who you are. The Slack is also open to the public - anyone can join and view all message history. If you are so concerned, why don't you ask Eugene yourself? If you're going to continue provoking on this thread don't expect a response. You're not going to make an impact on the progress of Emercoin by posting on this thread.

So will you remove the Hashcoins links or not?

A simple yes or no will suffice.

I mean, it's surely in Emercoins interest to do so - who would trust a coin that endorses a proven scam company? Why would you even do that?

Thanks for the invite, but here is fine.

@blurry - forget it. As I've said before on this thread:

I never got a straight answer from anyone here.

The best option is to ask the questions then supply the answers for them. They'll still ignore you, but at least everyone else here will get a straight answer.  If you can translate Russian (Google?) then the below link will answer all your questions about the Emercoin/Hashcoins/Polybius connection/scam - & a whole lot more!

BTW, You'll notice it's a cached version - someone obviously wanted it deleted.......too much detail maybe?
