knoxville Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Hi everyone. I have a very old ripple address from back in 2013 that I'm currently trying to get access to but without much luck. I have: a wallet address- 34 characters long secret key- 29 characters long I don't have: My username (and reading through some of the other posts about older account recovery, seems like you need it. I hope I'm wrong!!) I haven't however got the slightest clue on how to access to the account. I've tried all the migration stuff to no avail, and had 0 success with gatehub. I think it's so old and outdated that nothing seems to be working. Can anyone point me in the right direction on the best way to go about doing this? I can't remember what I used back in 2013. Not sure if it was a desktop client or an online service. There doesn't seem to be any support for clients from 2013/14 at all. Thanks guys Edited December 21, 2020 by knoxville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoxville Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 Actually nevermind I managed to figure it out. Apologies for creating a topic, didn't think I'd manage to sort it on my own. Please delete the thread if you need!! And for anyone wondering how I did it, it was actually very very simple (possibly why I didn't try it). I created a gatehub account, went through the verification steps. Added a new wallet, it then asked for my password (2fa), and then asked for the secret key. Simple as that.

Flintstone Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 @knoxville Glad you figured it out. Seems like a standard key-pair. You might want to look into https://flare.ghost.io/theflarenetwork/ as you will be able to claim the FLR token. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoxville Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 Thanks for pointing that out @Flintstone, I hadn't even heard of it. I've set the message key on gatehub for that address. If I transfer my XRP elsewhere between now and the drop, will I still receive the Spark to that address? And if I lose any XRP between now and then does that effect the Spark amount? I'm assuming because the snapshot was already taken that nothing I do now will effect anything but I just want to double check as I'm sure you know much much more about it than I do!

Flintstone Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Have a browse through this post by BillyOckham, as he’s done a nice round up of all the info you need. Edited December 21, 2020 by Flintstone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
