[ANN] FACTOM - Introducing Honesty to Record-Keeping

[bamsterdam]

I had 7 stuck transactions on polo but they all went through suddenly some days ago. Never got a reply from poloniex on my tickets so I don't know if the looked at it or it was just luck but was on 2 different addresses on the same day so I think they looked at it.. so there is still hope for those still waiting

What you could try: To send a second transaction, a small amount. I can't guarantee that it will work but it worked several times for me (3 times I believe).

Background: Some time ago (two weeks or so) I sent a small amount first (to test the Factom wallet) to polo. Worked well, so I transacted more. But the deposit didn't even show up. I opened a ticket but got no response for 12 days.

Then I wanted to know what the problem is and sent another 1 FCT or something like that (maybe less). And surprisingly my previous bigger deposit showed up and was confirmed. But: The 1 FCT was stuck now ;-) I've done that again, at least 3 times. A deposit is stuck and I send a small amount to "free" it and it worked.

My last deposits went well but something is not right. I doubt it's a Factom-problem because I never had that problem with Bittrex.

Maybe try it - but only a small amount of course.

What kind of problem did you have? Was it "awating approval" or something else?

Deposits didn't show up on my account or were displayed as unconfirmed (stuck on 1/3 for example) while confirmed on the Blockchain.

New Entp Wallet


[fix] An error regarding the wallet's sync status was showing despite the wallet saying 100% synced. This message would only go away when factomd's second pass hit 100%. This has been rectified.
[fix] The screen appearing blank/freezing when editing an address has been fixed. All addresses will have special characters in their names replaced with '_'
[new] The courtesy remote node has a new domain, all users using factomd-live.cloudapp.net will automatically be updated to courtesy-node.factom.com.
[new] The courtesy remote node will now be the default blockchain target. This will help new users with getting started.

I guess they have a big backlog of tickets. Anyhow the blockchain doesn't lie and if they owe you a transaction they should send it sooner or later.

Bittrex seems more reliable according to comments on Telegram.

Blue light special on Factom.

Poloniex hasn't been very reliable the last few months, that's what I heard from many in the community. Issues with deposits and withdrawals...

Hope they fix it soon.

Hi,

Thanks

Yes twice. One took 5 days, and the other took 15 minutes, good luck.

Kind of concerning that it's actually reasonable to wish good luck before making a transaction from or to Polo ;-)

Hi guys, can I get some help setting up the wallet?

I successfully set up the wallet on one machine a few weeks back with a little bit of help from this forum. And then I was able to get my factoids out of poloniex and into the wallet successfully.

I backed up my seed and my wallet file and have put them in a safe place.

Now I want to make sure I can successfully install the wallet on another machine in case my current one dies and have attempted to do so.

Of course, I never plan to try to run the wallet on two different machines simultaneously. I understand that's not a supported function of hot wallets.

Here is what I have found when attempting to install the wallet on a new machine. I downloaded the blockchain and put it in the usual location as specified by the installation instructions. Also, I have replaced the address in the custom factomd location with factomd-live.cloudapp.net:8088. Strangely, this address does not remain when closing and reopening the wallet. When i close and reopen the wallet, the default courtesy address comes back and factomd-live.cloudapp.net:8088 no longer appears in the field. i thought that was a sign of a problem.

The wallet interface opens no problem and attempts to synchronize most recent transactions as normal.

The wallet synchronization remains at 0% and under the first message in the main window which states the wallet needs to synchronize the latest transactions before balances will be available, I get a second message that says "must wait one block and try again".

I've tried waiting several hours with the machine running to see if any progress is made, but it never happens. The main window just remains with 0% wallet synchronization with the message in red stating "must wait one block and try again".

can someone please help? I want to confirm that I am able to successfully install the wallet on a new machine and confirm that I can access my factoids so that I may then uninstall the wallet from all of my machines and keep my seed and wallet backup file in secure storage rather than having the wallet available to be opened on any of my machines. I plan to simply HODL my factoids for several months if not years.

[lolikop]

The easiest way is to use the courtesy node without downloading the entire blockchain.

Delete all factom folders, download only the new entp wallet https://github.com/FactomProject/distribution and let it sync all transactions for a few hours, u can then import ur seed.

[Camineet]

yep, it's syncing now

[Camineet]

Okay now need some more help please.

Wallet on new machine has synced to 100%.

I successfully imported my seed file according to the notification in green at the top of settings which stated I had changed seed file to 'the correct words in my seed file'. Unfortunately, none of my factoids show up. The balance of the wallet remains zero. And I get the message seen in the screenshot below indicating I have no transactions on the blockchain.

https://ibb.co/jVv1DQ

My factoids are still available in the wallet on my original machine. Of course, I never try to open both wallets on both machines at the same time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Why do you need Exodus? There is an official Factom wallet, use that one, it s really not that hard.
