<m​onerobull:matrix.org> got it

<3​21bob321:monero.social> Thanks mbll

<a​riel74:matrix.org> Hello

thanks mbll

<k​clemmer513:matrix.org> New to Monero and I'm a non-coder. Learned about this privacy coin from Mike Adams and decided to download a monero wallet that I run locally on my desktop on my own node.

<k​clemmer513:matrix.org> I recently converted BTC to XMR on Kraken and then used Kraken to send the balance to my Monero wallet address. It's been about a week and I still see a balance of ZERO on my wallet.

<k​clemmer513:matrix.org> I know for sure my Monero wallet address was perfect when I initiated the transfer, but I'm completely stumped as to why I see nothing in my wallet after a whole week. Someone please help!

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> can take this to #monero-support:monero.social

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> brother :(

<k​clemmer513:matrix.org> do you have your seed phrase/recovery phrase written down anywhere?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> this is r/monerosupport mod-mail

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> i asked them if they have the seed written down already

<k​clemmer513:matrix.org> ah I see lol. I hope they wrote it down...

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I pity him but tbh Cake Wallet is pretty clear at wallet creation TO WRITE DOWN THE SEED

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> CCS proposal of 75 XMR for making the warning clearer?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> i absolutely hate wallets that ask you for the words afterwards but it sure is effective

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> when they do "what is word #3, #7, #12"

<r​brunner7:monero.social> Likewise. Maybe a way for devs to circumvent that with some trick would be nice, so it does not slow down testing. Just answer 3 times with "fluffypony" maybe :)

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> I dont write mine dlwn

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> I just remember the first 4 words, then keep retrying until it asks for one of the first 4

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> kek

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> oh a "thorwaway" wallet easteregg would be neat

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> just type cake four times

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> This is my circumvention

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> If a wallet asks me for 3 diff words, i'm not using it 😆.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> bro literally have 5 different wallet installed on his phone

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> what is he talking about

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> None of them asked me for 3 words

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> fair

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Stack only asks for one, i'm on okder cake version since they killed fdroid, xmruw, anonero and monfluo(?) dont ask at all. Neither does gui or feather

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> How'd you know i literallt have 5 diff wallets on phone! Must be psychic, haxxor, or literally me bro

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> im you

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> and you are me

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> we are us

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> i thought it would be something like that

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> holding Ctrl in the monero-gui's seed confirm screen is an example of that

<r​brunner7:monero.social> Pssst, only wisper, don't tell too loudly. Interesting, didn't know.
