I have never imported a private key before, but I found a guide, and I get this:
./BellaCoind importprivkey "(the private key I copied from your keygen page)"
error: {"code":-5,"message":"Invalid private key"}
What private key are you importing? It's not the one that's used to generate all the coins private keys, let me explain:
- Go to
http://poollo.com/key.html- Type into "3) Input private key hex" the private key you generated the first time.
- In the next screen choose "Bellacoin" at the end section, "Coin formatted keys".
- You will get 2 strings, the wallet public address and the private key for BellaCoin, it's on the textbox named "Private Bellacoin key in wallet import format". That's the one you have to use with the "./BellaCoind importprivkey "
PS: You can give a name to the Wallet, so it's easy to recognize, the full command would be, for example:
Bellacoind importprivkey 69g7Kv4aWAdj6pigrbsfJYVrpwzdgKyY9fxeJsJHe3mcwSKUB2C "Pollo.com Mining Wallet"
Thanks, that worked. I did it using BellaCoind, and interestingly, the new address did not show up in the qt client until I restarted it.
I have a zero balance. I thought I saw a BELA block found while I was mining yesterday. Minimum payment threshold, maybe? I will point some hash at it again, soon.
