I think a more noticeable warning advising users to backup their wallet.dat before update would help users avoid those problems.

How do we make staking active on the new wallet?

Encrypt the wallet first. After it closes open it again, go to settings→unlock wallet. Unlock it with the passphrase you used for the encryption. Staking should activate automatically (you can check by hovering your mouse cursor over the arrow icon in the bottom right corner. It should also turn green when staking activates).

did that, icon is still greyed out

funds need at least 60 confirmations before they stake

if that doesnt work out:
Tools > Open Wallet Configuration File > staking=1 > close > restart wallet and unlock it for staking again


a lot of documentation about BLOCKNET is found here:

WARNING! The current version of the wallet will completely unlock by default when you use your password to unlock it.  Please be sure to check the "Unlock for staking and anonymization only" checkbox in the unlock popup dialog window before unlocking.

Is it actual possible to open a XCurrency wallet.dat in this Blocknet version, or do we still have to wait?

Looking at Coinmarket cap chart, BLOCKNET is just about to hit it's next wave up. Draw a line from all the last few buy support lows. Looks like we just hit the bottom on the next wave up. Get cheap coins while you can! I'm not a master at reading charts, but the pattern is very clear.

Looks clear to me as well. But in regards to the recent news, the whole Alt-market is a bit challenged.

I sold at 0.055 and reinforced at 0.00475. Got lucky today bc the coin is already at 0.005 and moving up

Any word when Bittrex wallets will be back up?

Any word when Bittrex wallets will be back up?

In my experience Trex is usually pretty conservative on these things, so I wouldn't hold my breath.  I'm sure soon, but honestly given the current market volatility paired with the functionality of the new Block DEX and what the impact that may have I'm guessing we may be looking at days rather than hours.  (Thinking back to my experience with the ZCL/ZEN split).

It's up right now, happy hunting.

It's up right now, happy hunting.

Being honest, hunting for an altcoin now is not a good idea. In my opinion, we should wait until the BTC and ETH price will calm down.

[lijoe408]

If you look at top 20 coins like QTUM etc etc they only have 1-2 devs.

Its a none issue really as Blocknet is almost 100% finished

I think you have some misinformation.  Qtum has 30 devs.  10 of which are core and employed by the foundation.

So just to get this straight before i try this out i will put the new parts Im not sure about in RED

Steps for migrating from old chain to new chain

    backup your wallet.dat before you doing anything (make 2 separate copies)
    unlock wallet from the UI (fully unlocked, not just for staking)
    Use the debug console and type dumpwallet filename.txt (replace "filename.txt" with a name of your choice). The file will be located in the directory you launched the wallet from

Download New Wallet

    launch wallet
    in debug console importwallet filename.txt replace filename.txt with that you used with the dumpwallet command (so you copy that filename.txt to the new folder from which you are launching the new blocknet wallet)?
    verify addresses (what is this?)
    via debug console type listreceivedbyaddress 0 true

When to move your wallet.dat and start using the new wallet (when you move you old wallet.dat to the new blocknet directory in app data?)

    it is not important when you download the new wallet, sync up, and move your wallet.dat to its directory.
    however, your new wallet's balance will remain zero until the migration on 1 September.
    a snapshot will be taken on 1 September, after the final block on the old chain. The first block to be created after 08:00 PDT (15:00 UTC) shall be the final block.
    once the snapshot is applied to the new chain, your balance will reflect in the new wallet
    you can expect (centralized) exchanges to re-enable trading once they have confirmed that the new chain is functioning as expected.

Funds will arrive on Sept 1


If you fuck any of this up so long as you have copies of your old blocknet wallet.dat file are you 100% safe?

I am just replacing a new wallet.dat with my old wallet.dat and everything is Ok.)) Even have received my first stake in a new chain.))

that's very interesting... so you didnt bother with any of this dumpwallet filename.txt  process?

you simply downloaded the new wallet qt and replaced the new wallet.dat with your old one and everything works fine?

Tried just moving the wallet.dat and got

Code:

wallet.dat corrupt, salvage failed

Also tried the dumpwallet command and got : Cannot open wallet dump file (code -8)

[Xaltotun]

I also had a corrupted wallet.dat file too but got everything imported fine by just using dumpprivkey from the old wallet console (does not need to be in sync). Then importprivkey in the new wallet. All was good.

For staking, you need to have at least 5k BLOCK and be holding them in your wallet, correct?

I'm on Mac OS, but it looks like the wallet download is no longer working: https://blocknet.co/#downloads

Any suggestions? THX

[BTC-BTC-BTC]

Import the private key worked for me. Here are some here for the new blockchain in case anyone needs them.

No 5k is only for a node. You can stake any amount.
