Re: ⋆⋆⋆ [SDC] ShadowCash | ShadowSend v2 IS ALIVE ! ** MANDATORY WALLET UPGRADE! ⋆⋆⋆
Still having difficulty converting Shadow to SDC. The buttons in the wallet are ambiguous and there is no clear procedure; also unclear is the relationship between stealth and open addresses. That's something that really needs to be a priority for the secrecy aspect of the coin to be useful- we need a wallet upgrade with the SDC-Shadow addressed.
When converting Shadow to SDC this is what I do at the moment. Because there are few Shadow in the network (less than 1%) the amount of available inputs/outputs is very small compared to what it will be soon. Therefor I inspect the Chain Data section of the wallet and pick an available System I/O value close to the amount I wish to convert.
Say you have 552.3245 Shadow you wanted to convert to SDC, then I would send 550. This would go through no problem. As I say we wont have to think about this as the amount of Shadow increases.
Now before sending 550 i click the button "suggest ring size". this will change the ring size value automatically and it should now send without a problem.
Additionally my feeling is you should always leave some dust Shadow amounts even if u wanna convert all to SDC and cash out. These dust amounts (e.g. 0.5423) will improve the systems overall anon by confusing SDC>Shadow>SDC even more (in my opinion anyway).
A tutorial would be useful and Im sure members of this community could produce some good ones
Reminder: Convert more SDC to Shadow.
Reminder: Its all about Shadow to Shadow.
You send what, to where? My instinct would be to set the "Shadow to SDC" option, send Shadow from my stealth address to my main address in my wallet. The coins should reappear as SDC at my public SDC address.
But even with very simple transactions, like 1 Shadow, it tells me there are insufficient outputs when asked to suggest a ring size. That doesn't make sense. I'd like to see the Shadow-SDC conversion happen reliably a few times (not concerned about the dust) before leaving any more Shadow on the system.
