How to make first transaction to activate new wallet?
-
@LithStud The public key is not the address? Maybe I've lost some passages ???
-
@ccminer should i enter public key instead of BURST address for my firs transaction? That what confuses me as there is no clear indication in wallet how this first activation works. I could activate using faucet, but thats besides the point, i want to activate using existing wallet and tools that any new member has access to.

@LithStud The public key IS your burst address.
At least with Bitcoin is like this
-
well Burst has these three things :D
account ID: BURST-YEXV-TJ9K-MGC8-C96AP
numeric ID: 12294976293218235323
public key: d9820979641eb578a91d25ad0a060419cf77d2334d889a39bed610cb1bc73b2bi guess i will just try to enter public key and see what happens
EDIT: nope recipient must be account id or numeric i guess
-
@LithStud Sorry for my useless reply to your issue :(
Glad you solved :)
-
@ccminer nope :) still havent activated :) gonna wait for someone to teach me how to do that without using faucets :)
-
@LithStud I activated my first wallet by giving a name to it and paynf 1 burst fee for it
-
@LithStud
get some and send some, then your activated!
-
you guys not listening to me :) the problem IS GETTING THOSE FIRST BURST.
When you create a wallet its empty, so lets say a friend (or in this case myself from other wallet) sends BURST, but where does he inputs that public key that is required for first time. And as i said not using faucets or exchanges. Just from wallet to wallet.
-
@LithStud We are listening :-) However in my case I have just entered the BURST address of the new wallet and sent. There has been a warning about the new wallet not having a public key, but the BURST has been sent.

@LithStud Which wallet are you using?
-
@RichBC trying out online wallet
-
@LithStud I have just tested sending from the Online Wallet to a new burst account. Got a message that there was not yet a Public key but no problem in sending.

@RichBC hmm it might be because i want to send a message as well. Gonna try without message.
EDIT: and indeed the message doesnt let you send burst to new account o_O now that is strange
