How to fund my empty account?

[RippedFuel]

I tried to send some XRPs to an empty account but Bitfinex didn't like it. I could use Binance but haven't tried yet for fear of losing my money so my question is, how do you people fund your local wallets for the first time? Please help, I don't want to leave my hard earned XRPs in an exchange if I'm going for the long run.

The Ripple wallet I first opened was with Gatehub. I initially bought Ripple on Poloniex and then transferred it to Gatehub. I eventually bought a Ledger Nano S and transferred them to that.

Hi all,

I am new to ripple. I have opened a account with GateHub and transferred bitcoin to GateHub from my Luno wallet. This does not reflect in GateHub. I received an email that I should set the trustline, however I get an error when selecting set the trustline.

Any assistance, please.

You need at least 20 XRP in your Ripple wallet to activate it, and 5 XRP for each trustline you set up.  You won't receive your BTC until those conditions are met.

I used Binance to send XRP to my deactivated Ripple wallet and it was successfully activated that way.

Thank you for the feedback. How do I get the 20 XRP in the account?

You can buy XRP from a different exchange (such as binance) and send it to your gatehub ripple wallet.

The easiest method is to buy ETH on coinbase, send that to binance, sell it for XRP, and send your XRP to gatehub.

@klode you have to buy them from somewhere else first.

I bought ETH on Coinbase, sent that to Binance, traded for XRP, an sent that GateHub.  Worked well, no issues.

Removed wallet address and plea for XRP. This forum discourages p2p wallet funding due to issues in the past
