Hey can anyone possibly help me? I installed the latest version of the Agama wallet (v0.2.0.25g-beta). I opened the light wallet and most all of my KMD is not showing up and seems to be sent to a different address three weeks ago.
As best I can remember, all I did three was ago was click on "Claim Now" to get the KMD interest. I thought would send to my main address, RXyXDkiMmU8jdnCuyCrZHqWthU4kp9PUhv. I haven't sent any payments from the address besides that. When you open the transaction in KMD Explorer,
Transaction da469f5b2c309e43f48df8223a15262abb69d83b9e8fbf5a9e08fc32796488e6
It shows that on Dec 4, most all the KMD was sent to another address, RWELgaKPkLqJMw8LiD3LqAAvcPMtjkEUH9 and that address is also one of the inputs for the transaction, which i assume was the KMD interest, but not sure.
Why would it do this and I thought that "Claim Now" sends it back to the origin address and that's where it should be?
I'm going to be upset if I lose over 2300 KMD, so hopefully someone can help me figure this out and how to access my coins. Thanks.
when you click claim there is a drop down address that you can choose to send kmd to. Do you still have the wallet.dat file from the wallet?
You should be able to access the fund using that. But you have to use native mode.
I don't remember any kind of drop down address menu and I wouldn't choose to send it to a different address anyway. But my laptop crashed and I no longer have that old wallet.dat file. Considering I have the seed to my main address, I never thought to find it and back it up.
If you have the seed can't you create a new file that should be the same as the old?
I do have the seed, but does that seed restore all the old addresses like it would for most modern wallets, or is just the seed for that one public address? Like a private key would be?
I am trying to install the native mode version, but it keeps telling me that my "Zcash params are missing or incomplete". Then I download those and it says "Progress: Both Zcash param keys are downloaded and verified!" and then it still says the are missing or incomplete and doesn't seem to want to let me proceed.
For Komodo one seed generates one key. If you have more than one address then you have more than one key. These keys are held in the wallet.dat file when you run native mode.
The problem you're facing could be due to the version of the GUI you are using. Make sure to download the latest version from our website and if you have further issues please join our slack so we can troubleshoot live.
After installing the latest version of Agama choose "reinstall current version" and select "delete previous installation binaries". The installer has a wizard so it is easy.
I think what has happened is the following.
1. You claimed interest on a previous version of Agama, the version that only had a "Claim Interest" button and not the drop down options of return addresses that was added in the later versions.
2. When you claimed the interest, it seems that you were running that version of Agama in Native Mode and thus new addresses were created (which looks like where some of your funds went to).
So it seems like you need to find your previous wallet.dat file, like jl777 stated, or maybe ask if the wallet.dat file is retained on when the wallet is upgraded.
Wish you luck
So it made a new address without even asking me? I always understood that the way to claim interest was that it sends back to your original address and didn't hear this was different. And is there even a way to back up your wallet.dat file in the Agama program? I never saw anything like this and didn't think it was necessary, because I only used that one address and had the seed saved for it.
This is just terrible programming and wallet design and is likely going to cause me to lose $25,000 worth of KMD. My laptop had SSD drive in it, but somehow it has gotten fried and now won't even recognize it, so I doubt any data is recoverable from it. I'll have to find some kind of service to try that, even though it is unlikely, because it was an encrypted drive.
There is a slim chance that I had that same wallet.dat file on my backup laptop, but not likely and also I just installed the latest verison of Agama and not sure if it overwrote it, because i was trying to start from scratch.
