If anyone would like to unload some or all of their Blockshares, PM me. Looking to pay .012 BTC per share, up to 1 BTC worth. (Sorry OP if this seems inappropriate, I just don't want to buy $500 worth at the moment).

We have no problem with users looking to set up private BKS sales in this thread, as long as they are taking proper precautions to set up trusted escrow facilitators. However, we strongly discourage any trading at the moment because the blockchain is still only a release candidate. From our recent announcement:

Caution: The blockchain is a only a release candidate

This is a release candidate blockchain, which means that it may not be the final production version if problems with the distribution are discovered. Once we are confident the distribution was completed properly and the network proves to be stable, we will promote the release candidate blockchain to production status. We expect this process to take a couple weeks. No one should be a buyer of release candidate BlockShares from individual sellers because there is a chance the blockchain could be discarded and a second release candidate would be used with BlockShares distributed based on the centralized ledger we possess. Accordingly, exchanges should not be listing BlockShares during the release candidate period. If you wish to purchase BlockShares during the release candidate period you should buy them directly from B&C Exchange so that the transaction appears in the temporary centralized ledger that would be used in the case that a second release candidate blockchain becomes necessary.

Thanks, missed that. I will take the advice and rescind my offer.

I have a few questions on the above:

1) Why do we have to type walletlock, if we are about to unlock the wallets?

2) Do we have to unlock the wallets if they are not encrypted? My NSR wallet is encrypted - but the B&C client is not, so do I have to type the two commands (walletlock and walletpassphrase, etc.) for my B&C client?

1) I did this in case either or both wallets were unlocked for minting-only. When I tried to completely unlock the NSR wallet when it was already partially unlocked, it complained. So I locked it entirely, then unlocked it entirely.

2) I haven't tried anything with unencypted wallets...just too much risk for my comfort level.

I got it to work without having to restart or reinstall. Both clients must be running and all operations are done from the console. In the nu client, type

walletlock

Then completely unlock the wallet. Place your passphrase inside quotes as noted above. 600 second timeout should be plenty of time to complete the process.

walletpassphrase "**************" 600

Now repeat the above two commands in the B&C client. The next command imports the NuShares wallet. I had to specify the complete path to the wallet, eg. /home/username/.nu/walletS.dat, where username is the unique login name (This path is for a typical Linux setup; Windows will be different). The last field is the password, again enclosed in quotes:

importnusharewallet path-to-wallet-file "**************"

The Blockshares should appear in less than a minute. One can then unlock both clients for minting only as usual.

I have a few questions on the above:

1) Why do we have to type walletlock, if we are about to unlock the wallets?

2) Do we have to unlock the wallets if they are not encrypted? My NSR wallet is encrypted - but the B&C client is not, so do I have to type the two commands (walletlock and walletpassphrase, etc.) for my B&C client?

3) Regarding importnusharewallet, is the password we have to put in for the NuShares client, or the B&C client (I presume the NuShares client, but mine is not working, so far)

if you only have your NSR wallet encrypted you don't need to unlock bcexchange client only put in your passphrase password
once you import your nsr wallet.dat to bcexhange client if your bcexchange is lock you need too unlpck it from the main console with your b&c walletpassphrase "**************" 600 first then import your nsr wallet.dat to bcexhange then use your passphrase password foryour nsr wallet.dat

My password is continuous (no spaces) - I tried it with the quote marks anyway, but unfortunately no progress

I think this is a bug. I also had that issue when I tried to use the 32 bit client, but the 64 bit client worked fine for me. So try the 64 bit client first if that doesn't work go up a few post and people talking about the issue and how they got it to work.

I thought 64 bit programs were not supposed to work on 32 bit computers? I am reluctant to try this, in case I bust something

Hello, I downloaded the B&C Exchange wallet, and want to get my Blockshares

I clicked File and selected Import NuShares wallet. This brought up a box pointed at the Nu directory on my C drive, with various .dat files to choose from:

addr.dat
blk0001.dat
blkindex.dat
walletB.dat
walletC.dat

I do not know which, if any, of these represent my NuShares wallet. Can anyone assist?

looks like you are in the wrong directory. you need to go up one directory then go into nu directory then select walletS.dat (That's the new share wallet)

yep. this worked for me

Sorry, I made a typo in the above list of .dat files - the last one is not walletC.dat but walletS.dat

I retried the import, directing to walletS.dat, and a box appeared asking for a password - I presume this is the NuShares client password. I typed it in, and it said that the import process had started, and that I should check the debug window. I did, but it said:

importnusharewallet [walletpassword] [rescan=true]
Import NuShares walletS.dat
Password is only required if wallet is encrypted
(code -1)

I don't understand this. Can anyone explain?

When putting in your password, try using quotes around it. Apparently if your password has a space in it you must do this. So for example if your password was thyroid cancer, try putting in "thyroid cancer" . That is what worked for me.

Is BKC PoW or PoS coin?

Being a fork of NuBits, which was forked from the Peershares template, which was forked from Peercoin it inherited the consensus mechanism.
It's PoS.
But B&C Exchange is more a distributed autonomous corporation than a "coin".
The part of B&C Exchange that represents the shares of that corporation are the BKS.
BKC are the units that are required to pay for trades on B&C Exchange.

The import password should be your nushares wallet password. The wallet itself needs to be unlocked totally, not just for minting only, but this is only a problem if you encrypted your wallet. If your nsr wallet password has spaces, you should use double quotes (") around the password.

4 bks = 40k nsr is correct. 1 BKS is all you need to vote and receive rewards. I received a 0.01 BKS reward for my first mint, so I think they increased the reward (NSR reward is 40, which equates to 0.004 BKS)

Thanks I wasn't sure. I'll try staking and see what I get.
