RE: New Tool from Busy.org - Create New Steem Blockchain Accounts with SteemConnect!
You say CLI is for 'techie nerds', but I feel like you are dismissing something that is a hidden gem of sorts. Let me show you the power of CLI.
With steempy, you can just do this:
steempy newaccount throwaway777 --account furion
It will ask you for a password (pick something secure), generate your keys and save them in a BIP38 encrypted wallet. Thats it.
Ok, how about delegation?
steempy newaccount throwaway777 --account furion --fee "9 STEEM"
In this example, you are only paying 9 STEEM in fee, and delegating the rest of the cost. steempy will calculate that for you, and do all the things required.
I just tested it and it works great :)
Anyway when I use the "--fee 9 STEEM" option I end up with an error. Tested it with STEEM, without & "-fee 9STEEM".... always end up in the same error, any idea? Will later try it again and post the error.
Thanks for an answer!
You're right, there is an error. Try wrapping amount in quotes, like so:
Awesome! You are the best :)
I am learning around coding since a few days. Anyway when need a new topic for an article.... I am wondering now how they make the recovery process - lol. Thanks a lot!
@timcliff just FYi and @furion I was able to use this tool post HF21 and it worked!
Thats awesome info - it would be great if there would be some more tutorials about it.... will try :)

Could you please explain more about creation fee? Is it fix value or can change? Thank you so much!
Hi, does your steempy support the 'update_account' command to change all your keys?
Are there light CLI wallets (with a remote node) you know about?
Great comment - appreciate the insight into the power of CLI :)
THANK YOu i was JUSt about to ask this! You deserve every dollar youre getting right now! from comments and pposts!
I am literally crying right now because i have been asking if there is a backup account creation, or if there was a way i could just PAy the initial account creation fee of the free fw dollars in steem the new accounts get! And I wanted to make sure I could use steemit if steemitcom was down! Now i see that with blockchain API That is possible rigt if steemit.com was down I could still initiate a powerdown and powerdown and claim my steem and spend it right?
God this is HUGEnews i am glad we are all realizing how big this is this is EXACTLy what SO MANy of s were asking for! I cant believe i hadnt seen this for 12 days!
@ackza , how to power down without steemit? there is not the option on busy.org ....
Now we have Vessel by @jesta and also i believe we do have power down option on vessel yup we do! @jesta click that find his latest posts!
That's awesome. How does someone get steempy up and running though? Is it something that someone with little to no computer knowledge can do?
This depends on whether it runs on Windows (which is what most people have). I don't use that platform, so I don't know, but PR's are welcome.
The installation is as simple as
pip install steem. Additionally, if on OSX, you might have to install Python 3.5+ (brew install python)I think you underestimate how much of a 'techie nerd' you are ;)
Hey Tim. I just tried to use this and couldn't find the Account creation fee listed at steemd.com. I've found it a couple of times previously.
I used pharesim's steeminvite service instead; but is there anywhere else the account creation fee is listed?
You can find it by taking the median of the witnesses. Currently it is 0.1 STEEM.
Thanks Tim. I kept getting the error message at 0.100 steem, but tried again for 7 steem and it submitted successfully.
0.1 STEEM is the
account_creation_fee, which needs to be multiplied by 30. 3.0 STEEM is the minimum to create an account without delegation. 7 will work too :)Thanks for clarifying, Tim. Really appreciate what you do for us :)
What about creating an account with delegation? Does that involve less than 3 STEEM as investment?
Would the new account still be able to post?
I have to create an account for my friend, and the OTP system isn't working for India.
Thanks @furion just tried it. This is awesome.
