Thanks for making this guide! The part above might confuse some people though, as asking for wallet activation here is closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly - you can access your xrp into your new wallet using the secret key. Unless you want two wallets, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you want two wallets, of course. Hi, can you explain a little more please! Im not sure what you mean by "you can access your xrp into your new wallet using the secret key" Could you explain in detail how i would move my xrp to a new desktop wallet from a exchange wallet that already has taken 20 xrp from my account ans without having to pay another 20 xrp to the desktop wallet. I have scouted the web for this answer and no one can give me a straight answer. I would have thought someone who works for ripple would have come along by now and explained this to everybody, many people whant to know the answer to this question!

RippleHerToShreds Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Your XRP don't actually move. However, to do what you want you need to: 1. delete any trustlines you have at the exchange, as these lock 5 XRP each. 2. get your secret key from the exchange wallet (the one beginning with "s"). if you can't get this for any reason, then you are stuffed for the 20 XRP. 3. restore your wallet using whatever desktop client you wish to use (Toast or Ripple, presumably?) using said secret key. It might help if you tell us what wallet you wish to use and what step you don't understand or are getting stuck on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toroth Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Apologies for bumping an old thread with such a noob question. Would someone mind explaining to me what the point of "activation" is? As far as i can discern, the only reason would be if someone doesn't trust keeping their XRP on an exchange (understandable). I'm also assuming that, by never having activated a wallet, all of XRP transactions (exchange address to exchange address) from last year to now were never actually recorded on the ledger and thus never attributed to XRPs liquidity? I ask the latter question because i finally got curious enough to try out bithomp and view my data but i was prompted with a message saying that my exchange address has not been activated. Again, sorry for the noob questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
