alexfeao Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 So I am new to all of this cryptocurrency. I just set up my first wallet with Gatehub, got my account verified, and began trying to transfer USD from FlashFX to my ripple address. FlashFX alerted me that I needed to establish a trustline, and in following the tutorials I can find out where to go to enter details. But I cannot work out for the life of me what the public address is that I enter so that the payment clears. Every google search has turned up empty. This is probably a super simple fix but I need help to work this out. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaCoverage Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) Trustlines are one of the more sophisticated & genesis features of Ripple. Make sure you Do Not enable Rippling when you set your trustline. Also You should only set your trustline limit to slightly more than what you intend on receiving. This can protect you from a few quasi-hacks where you end up with useless IOUs.

alexfeao Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 Thanks for replying! What would be the gateway between my user on Gatehub and my user on FlashFX? Ascertaining the public address is what’s been the point that’s evading me. Gatehub asks for it when setting a new trustline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoelKatz Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 When you hold any asset other than USD on the Ripple ledger, someone owes it to you. You have to choose to trust that person to owe you the money because an IOU from a random stranger is not something you want. So you need to know who is going to owe you the USD and you need to make a conscious choice to trust them. enrique11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
