NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs

hi,

how much NEM was one stake at the start??

If you didnt invest in ICO, don't ask. You'd slap your self on the head for missing it.

who said i didn't?  

just being a bit lazy and dont wanna look for that wallet.  

Sorry I thought you meant "how much it costs?". I misread, but for those that didn't, they are definitely slapping themselves.

[gentlemand]

I missed out on the freebies. I think I paid the equivalent of $20 in BTC for a stake. At the time you could claim two. I wonder what I was thinking that particular day. The original plan was to blatantly milk it for more BTC but that's changed. I think it's going to head to some interesting places.

hi guys,
I want to use the lightwallet. It asks for a few things:
1. wallet name
2. account address
3. private key
4. password

i know 2 en 4.
I have a wallet file like: london.wlt.
is the wallet name the same as london? and is there a way to retreive the private key from the wallet file?

thanks in advance

I bought and stashed a few XEM last year, can't remember exactly when. I have name.adb and name.wlt, as well as the password I used when creating the wallet. I do not have the private key. When I run the client, it sees the wallet, but when I type the password it tells me:

"Oops!

ERROR 123

NIS: ADDRESS BOOK COULD NOT BE READ"

Is all lost?

The filename doesn't contain any spaces or special chars does it ?
Where did you keep those files ?

No special characters or spaces, no. I stashed the files on a USB drive. I'd assumed in my apparent ignorance that I could retrieve the private keys just (like with pretty much all other alts) by saving the encrypted wallet files and the password. I have those, just not the private keys unencrypted, and the current wallet won't open my files.
Doomed, right?

Not having the private key any more is a big fail :/
Aside from that, are you sure the password is correct? Are the two files (name.adb and name.wlt) in the correct location?

Yeah seems that I fail. Shame. Yes the files are in the correct location, the wallet just throws out this "ADDRESS BOOK COULD NOT BE READ" error when I try to open it. I have my password and the relevant files, but my private keys it seems can only be decrypted by apparently now long-gone software. Gutted tbh.

Folks,
I just got phone call from friend of mine whom I helped to participating in Xem.
She said there is 0 balance on her address submitted succesfully for NEM redemption phase March last year. I remeber that everything went ok - she received 2250000NEM's - that was last May/June when I checked her address and said her: all ok, you got your stake.
Today, after conversation I went to XEMblockchain and saw 0 balance and no trace of initial stake transaction from...

Anyone to explain this fact?

It's quite personal as her initial address was generated on my computer...

At least post the public address so we can see.

this is her address NBSNX4-UYEXVZ-JUKM6N-BSDVTB-A2TDWW-HIOCFJ-2S6J   

strange as it shows 0 and no trace of initial 2250000 income - anyone can help?

If she really did successfully claim - and at this point this will be hard to verify cuz I don't think anyone still has those data laying around - then she may have been identified as sock puppet.

Obviously, if she was identified as sockpuppet then it was wrong assumption. BTW - how it was possibl;e to remove data from XEM blockchain?  Is it that really easy to do?
I ask her to contact with you, as probably she no longer trust me...

A long time ago I purchased 3.5 NEMstake on Nxt AE. I definitely purchased these before the infamous 'deadline'. How can I redeem my stake?

The deadline was for redeeming not for purchasing. If you did redeem it then your stakes should have been created in the genesis block, otherwise I'm afraid there is nothing anyone can do about it. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

NEM is no longer an "extremely" undervalued coin.
Now, NEM is just a "slightly" undervalued coin.
Still undervalued.
And it will take a fair position soon.
The most pleasant thing to me is the day I can get an silver coin is coming near.
It will be my family treasure.

wow 3.5x steak? that's about 25btc down the drain.

Never mind we've all lost more than that at one point in crypto.

How long should a NEM/XEM transaction take from the lightweight client

Trying one now and it just sort of sits there.

I quit the client and the transaction disappeared.

what is the "due" field for?

The deadline I'm referring to was for trading NEMstake on Nxt asset exchange. My NEMstake hasn't moved since July 2014. They qualify under 'NEM stake redemption was not done before deadline. -> Redemption possible after launch.' The XEM are on the blockchain, and somebody, somewhere is the custodian. So what's the procedure to redeem?

after being away for a while there seems to be soooooo many new names in this thread, great to see!

Jeezus! Nice to bump into you again! I hope you held onto your stake!

Your wallet seems to be fine.  Your address book not so.  

You can try a few things.  

1) You just needs to change the name of file.  If it was more than one word and he used the back up wallet feature, it saved in the wrong format.  Renaming the file will fix it.  (but I forget the trick.  I think it involves put a "_" in between the words)  (Please make a back up copy to play with when doing things like this)


2) He can wait until the next Lightwallet comes out and import into it without the address book as long as it was a wallet with only one account.  

3) If you know the password.  Remove the two wallets from the NCC folder.  Create a new wallet with the same name and same password.  Deleted that wallet but leave the address book file in the NCC folder.  Now paste in the original and good wallet.  If it was just a problem with the address book file, then you will be able to log into your wallet just having lost all your address book contents only.  

If any of these work, please also back up the private key.

By default it is set to 1 account, and when starting depending on the configuration that gets taken, which confuses people.  The easiest way to fix this is to follow this guide.

BTW - how it was possibl;e to remove data from XEM blockchain?  Is it that really easy to do?

No, it's impossible to delete data from the blockchain.
