You appears to be a guy I can trust, Where and how do I create a seed for my wallet?

Happy to be helpful!

The wallet used to have a seed generator, but was removed in the last update because of security reasons, anyway you can still use another randomizer to generate the seed, every seed with the following properties is valid and accepted:

81 characters, capital letters and the number "9" (other numbers are not accepted)

Be careful to properly store your seed, since it is the backup/private key for your balance. In IOTA you can lose your PC, lose your wallet, lose your server but as long as you have your seed you are fine.
There is a problem with seeds generated with the light wallet ?

So that means the ICO price was 48,000 satoshi (~$1.4 in current value) for 1 Giga Iota, correct? So if current prices are around .17btc/1G that would be a 35,000% increase?

exactly.

hi @all,
i had running a light wallet 2.1. ... it was working fine. today my balance was zero. after running the network spammer still zero.
i´m a littlebit confused   Huh Grin   maybe is there a new version of iota lightwallet? pls help me.
thx

First of all update to 2.3 if you haven't already. Then just go to "receive" and keep generating addresses, you balance will eventually show up.


thanks for the guide, now everything is running on Smiley i hope i can still buy a few Gi´s in the next time

Bought some IOTA from the marketplace section a while back, only to find the guy was a scammer. Lost my BTC back then..  Cry

Guys, do you know what was the ICO price for IOTA? Also, what is the unit of IOTA in exchanges? I mean, if it's G iota please post the ICO price for one such unit. Smiley

It will be megaiota. The ICO raised 1337 btc, and there are in total 2'779'530'283,277761 miota, you can make your own calculations Wink
Every megaiota = 48 satoshi then.

I hope people don't get fooled by these stupid OTC prices.

Well two years have passed, I guess you must also be enraged because of current btc and eth prices compared to then

In my 2.3 wallet I had around 23 iota and I upgraded to 2.5 version and was about to transfer my Iota from slack to this wallet but now wallet shows zero. And all my earlier transactions are not showing. It looks like a new account. Anyone else also facing these issues?

Is this wallet still not stable yet?

This is the latest release https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/tag/v2.3.0

Where do you see a version 2.5? You need to generate some adresses after login with your old seed.

I have the same problem. wallet is empty no transaction record. any advise?


Generate enough addresses, and your balance should reappear ...

Is this a bug in their system? Are they very sure that these lost iotas will recover back by everyone? Because if anyone got a lot of iotas in their wallet and they don't see them in the wallet it will be a big shock to new investors. After waiting my more than one hour time I get back my iotas.

It's not a bug per se. The wallet could be a bit more informative, but the wallet is a reference client after all, it's as simple as can be. The dev team provides basic functionality, and other wallet creators can add more sugar on top.

Your seed is a source of an almost infinite number of deterministic addresses. When you ask your seed for address #1, it will always give the same address. When you ask it for address #2, it will always give the same address. Also, when you send IOTA tokens, the change amount goes to the next address, for example #3. Now all your balance is in address #3.

When you delete the database and install a new version (or install IOTA to a new computer), it doesn't know which addresses you have already pulled from the seed, so it will display address #1, which is empty, as your tokens are on address #3. Now you need to generate the address #2, and finally address #3 before you get to the address holding your tokens.

These guys are very irresponsible people don't invest on this product. My 2000+ miota stuck in their slack bot and ydx is not responding. Now suddenly that scammer changed minimum withdrawal to 10K miota. What happens to all small investors?

I have opened a thread for scam accusation here - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/i-dont-like-the-way-yassin-is-processing-withdrawal-requests-1961842

I just want my miota to my personal wallet and when it will happen and I need a more responsible answer from the thread owner.

Yassin didn't change the minimum withdrawal amount, he is simply processing withdrawals > 10000 miota first, eventually he will send also smaller ones. I personally received my withdrawal, so I can confirm Yassin is actually sending transactions.

Also, even if something was wrong with YDX (which again, is not), it would have nothing to do with the project, it is an unofficial and community run service as it has always been advertised.

Logically he should process first come first serve not only handle higher amount withdrawals. Which I consider doing a partiality or scam to the smaller investors.

No one is forcing him to do this job and he is doing it to earn money then he should do it honestly without doing any partiality.

If he wants to process only higher amounts then why first place accepted small amounts to selling iota? When the time comes to send then gives preference to higher amount first.

I want to buy 0.5btc of Iota, how can I?

You either wait for exchanges until Tuesday, or you find a private seller (use escrow).
