Transferring STEEM or STEEM DOLLARS through CLI_wallet

in steemhelp •  8 years ago  (edited)

With the recent hacking activity, and account locking, the only safe way to send Steem or Steem Dollars to bittrex, or any other user or exchange, like @blocktrades is through the command line interface, aka CLI_wallet .

In order to use that.. you will probalby need your windows miner which will be updated soon to 0.11.0, or a linux miner-seednode...

Go in the Cli and type

gethelp transfer

after that, the cli prints, the following result.

Transfer funds from one account to another. STEEM and SBD can be
transferred.

Parameters:
from: The account the funds are coming from (type: string)
to: The account the funds are going to (type: string)
amount: The funds being transferred. i.e. "100.000 STEEM" (type: asset)
memo: A memo for the transactionm, encrypted with the to account's
public memo key (type: string)
broadcast: true if you wish to broadcast the transaction (type: bool)

Than means in simple words...

transfer myaccount receiveraccount "100.000 STEEM" memokeyprovided true

transfer steemychicken1 bittrex "100.000 STEEM" memo true

Thats all!

We need a cross-platform GUI wallet to manage funds with ease. CLI is 1980-90's stuff.

Its coming soon :)

Let's hope it does. I believe a lack of usable GUI wallet for safekeeping one's funds indirectly promotes dumping on exchanges as users feel unsafe with their web wallet.

Yeah I'm going to wait on all this. Transferring bitcoin into steem. Will worry about reverse later once it's more valuable!

Great Post, Thanks for the Info

i hope it helps!

@steemychicken1 Great tip here! Thanks. Any idea how to find your pending transaction ID's from the cli for the marketplace?

i dont know how to look for that, but i am looking for it...
