@oralisitman8358 Ай бұрын

When adding new account (11:11), you scanned something first. Then after a part of seed phrase appearing on the wallets screen (11:26). That one is NOT same as the first one (3:26) that you wrote on cards. Where is coming the 11.26's phrase list?

@CryptoGuide Ай бұрын

That's right. I am adding a second, totally different seed to the device, which I have used in other videos and scanned from a QR code (Rather than entering the words). This is confusing, as other wallet manufacturers let you have multiple accounts with the same seed, whereas Ellipal is referring to each different seed as an account.

Which has the Best Quality of scanner-camera: ElliPal Titan 2.0 or Keystone Pro 3? Which makes the cashout experiencie more smooth?

@CryptoGuide 7 ай бұрын

I didn't notice a difference between the cameras, but the key question of which is better to cash out comes down to software. Basically with Ellipal, if they are having issues with their servers, you just have to wait for them to fix it... With Keystone you can just switch to different wallet software...

I'm trying to transfer my XRP from the trust wallet to ellipal. 1) Select Receive on ellipal app, copy the receive address. 2) Paste Receive address in "Send" field in Trust wallet 3) Set amount, (50 XRP, e.g.), 4) When I go to confirm on Trust side (essentially to send the crypto), it fails, saying "failed to sign transaction". When I go into the cold wallet and press 'Sign' next to XRP, I put in my pw and then it is ready to "unsigned data qr code". I thought it meant I had to scan the qr code on the app (either with the amount specified or not), but it just says signature data not loaded correctly. Any ideas? I must be doing something wrong.

@CryptoGuide 3 ай бұрын

Sounds like the issue is simply that Trust wallet can't sign the transaction. Are you able to send XRP transactions elsewhere using Trust wallet?
