RE: Hey, Coach, I Finally Got A Wallet!
Congratulations on finally getting a wallet. It is very daunting and very scary especially if you're playing with currency. I definitely like Poloniex better than Bittrex and I'm steering clear of Xapo because of their fees. I have OpenLedger too but have no idea how to use it. Basically, darlin' - I'm signing up for any site that I hear about, test the learning curve, and see what I see.
I'm so glad @barrydutton was able to help you out. He's a great guy :)
Thanks, @merej99. I took my time because I was afraid if I messed up, I wouldn't be able to back-track. With that mindset, I wanted to be doubly sure of my choice. @barrydutton basically walked me through my baby steps by e-mail, hence 'coach'.
Sounds like an interesting experiment... poking around so many different sites! Have heard of OpenLedger, but not Xapo. I'm probably going to let this step soak in before I go exploring. It takes a while to process and assimilate new info into what I've learned. Soon, tho...
OpenLedger is complicated LOL. All the Steemit users here with this reward or that reward trail or token are paid to recruit users to open wallets on OL or a few other portals that lead to the BTS (Bitshares) wallet/trade/exchange site.
Then you will clear your cache and lose the wallet and then have to go and restore it with the backup you create when you open it LOL.
Oh, and good to see you around again. Your smile was missed...!
I've missed you guys! I am resolved to pop in at least once a day - even if it's a quick comment and no blog post. I'm working on my energy level after a full shift on my feet plus a few miles walking commute. And with that, I'm pissed that I'm not skinny yet! LOL
Oh, man, that's just not fair! There oughta be rules about that stuff... says the dog-walker with the spare tire. Lol! Tip for tired feet and 'quick' rebound... 20 minutes with Epsom Salt (use lots!) soak in water hot as you can stand it. Guaranteed fix.
And no one said you had to do a post every day... comments are just as fun, imo. Like this.... ;-P
Thanks!

Good lord, I only peek at OL once in a while just to see that my numbers haven't changed. Honestly, I haven't taken the time to explore it and do my due diligence with it. But I'm so glad you mentioned about creating a backup of it because I'd hate to lose access because I cleaned out the cache!
ask me how I know LOL.
It prompts you to make a backup when you open a wallet there, so I was lucky in that regard -- but re-installing it was not hard, I had help from someone on chat who deals w those everyday there. If you do not remember making the back up -- even tho they prompt you on start up like I said....
better safe than sorry, head there and make one now. Honestly.
