Topic: Balletcrypto - NFT wallet - group buy $15 per card loaded w/ NFT (closed) (Read 1309 times)

yep - the idea is to be able to have an image of the NFT on the wallet physically as well as within the wallet and for a cheaper price than the metal cards.

Same results with the metal REAL card using the legacy address and the steps above. Theory proved

Nice write up - in theory you could take one of the metal btc cards with their legacy address and do the same thing

These are the steps I took to unlock the Ballet NFT wallet in Free Wallet to be able to send or sweep the address for BTC, XCP and various xChain NFT’s stored on the address:

1. Go to https://www.balletcrypto.org/#/
2. Scratch card to reveal 20-character passphrase
3. Enter passphrase
4. Peel sticker to reveal BP38 private key
5. Scan or copy/paste PK and decrypt BP38 PK

This reveals the wallet’s Public Key (compressed, 66 characters) and Private Key Hexadecimal Format (64 characters), as well as WIF Compressed Private Key for each address, notably both legacy and segwit BTC addresses. Both addresses share the same PK.
 *Surprisingly, this action also reveals all other supported addresses and PK’s on the wallet, which includes 20 other coins that Ballet supports in their REAL issue wallets.

6. In Free Wallet (desktop version), go to address QR icon and select “changetaddress” from dropdown
7. Under options in pop-up, select “Import Private Key”
8. Enter either Ballet wallet’s master PK HEX -64 or BTC WIF Compressed PK (note: either key activates the legacy address by default)

With more or less of the last three steps, this was also successfully completed in the mobile version of FreeWallet.

Happy to report that the Ballet NFT wallet works for my needs as a form of cold storage of xChain NFT collectibles, and as long as the wallet isn’t damaged (I’d prefer that it wasn’t plastic, maybe future issues as the popularity of xChain NFTs grows will be metal), seems like a viable long-term storage solution for assets.

Cool. I'll experiment with the PK and then these wallets do exactly what I'd hoped for. Will be great, if and when, Ballet can support XCP integration.
Thanks, Mopar!

they were supposed to be working with an integration of XCP into the app - but have not been successful as of yet - and that is one of the issues that caused a huge delay in the release - the other issue was that ballet had moved to segwit addresses and the freewallet/xcp uses legacy - that issue was resolved.

But the cards in general are specific to their currency - they are not like the metal ballet wallets which allow all types of currencies - these are similar to the PURE in that sense.


I think the idea is that you can use freewallet/counterparty to view/verify that the NFT's are there but that as long as the PK is secure on the card then the physical item is what holds the virtual item.

And yes - if you put the key into freewallet then it would not be a view only, the NFT would be there then and no longer locked to the card.

Hey all~

Anybody have any knowledge of whether or not Ballet intends to support their NFT wallets beyond funding/sending BTC in app?
I bought a few of these thinking that I could store CounterParty asset collections on them, and while in my experimenting I've been able to transfer BTC, XCP and CP NFTs onto the address, I'm not sure that anything more than BTC is supported in the transfer off of the wallet - at least in app. Have also had no luck importing these particular wallets onto Ballet's desktop version to date.

For example, I can export the address as "view only" into Free Wallet and see that all of my transferred assets are there (incl. the NFT that came with the card), but am obviously unable to sweep the card from the view only address, nor can I see the assets other than BTC in the Ballet app to transfer to another address. Perhaps if I peel the card and enter the PK into the API Keys paste bin in Free Wallet will do the trick (?), but I'm not that familiar yet and don't want to mess this up :-|

Anybody have any ideas or info on if Ballet intends to take this further?

Thanks~

thank you sir! still have 7 or  8 that I am awaiting replies on how the want to handle shipping. so may have some more coming your way.

Cards received for reshipping.
Will contact people tomorrow

If anyone has one for sale, shoot me a PM

Sorry, no I don't have any extra - I originally had 150 to sell but I over sold so had to beg for 5 more. There are quite a few here that bought more than a few - my guess is for flipping them so one of them may be posting a few up for sale soon.

Do you have any extra stock left to sell?

cards in hand - will be reaching out to everyone shortly via dm to see how you want to handle shipping.

Thanks for the update, Mopar!

Update: I should have these in hand by this weekend - that being said, I will be away from home most of this coming weekend but I will be in touch early next week with everyone to see about getting these shipped!

Mopar:

Many thanks for coordinating the group buy! Looking forward to seeing them.

Steeley

proof of existence   should be shipping soon.

I am able to finally share an update.

When ballet transitioned to providing only segwit addresses instead of providing both legacy and segwit addresses - this caused an issue with using freewallet.io and counterparty as freewallet.io has not yet incorporated the update to allow importing of segwit private keys (it is planned for the next update though per jdog).

This had caused quite a delay as the card creator wanted to be certain that everyone had a smooth experience when trying view/verify or transfer their NFT.

The resolution is that Ballet will issue the cards with the legacy address, the NFT will be loaded to the legacy address and this will allow for a smooth experience using/verifying on freewallet.io and xchain.

The cards are now in production and we expect to receive a more precise shipping date by next week.

Thank you again for all your patience.

i thought xcp became one of the most hated projects? Sweet thing anyhow.

just to keep everyone in the loop - this project is still a go and will still proceed but there are some issues with ballet and the use of counterparty for the NFT's - it is being resolved but has caused a small delay.

I dont have an exact time or date when this will be done, but I wanted to update everyone just the same. I will post when I have more information.
