Sending XRP from gatehub

[newbee]

Hi,

I have a question about sending xrp to a ripple adres with gatehub.

In Gatehub i tried to send an ammount of XRP to this address rHb9CJAWyB4rj91VRWn96DkukG4bwdtyTh but only get two options USD and CNY. Does anybody knows why i can't send XRP?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @newbee,

the address to which you are trying to send XRP (rHb9CJAWyB4rj91VRWn96DkukG4bwdtyTh) has a special "DisallowXRP" flag enabled.

The owner of this address doesn't want to receive payments in XRP which is why our clients prevents you from sending it.

You can read more about it here: https://ripple.com/build/gateway-guide/#disallowxrp

Hi Enej,

Thanks for your quick respons. My ticket on gatehub can be closed then:-) Didn't know that it was possible to DisallowXRP. Nice to know!

Regards,

Rob

If this is the case, then the UI should clearly & explicitly inform the user about it. Especially because DisallowXRP flag is not enforced at the protocol level and other clients may allow sending XRPs to this address.

Fully Agree to that @T8493!
