Receive via Files using a CLI Wallet
To follow this tutorial, you will need the following:
- Up-to-date MWC CLI-Wallet Software: https://github.com/mwcproject/mwc-qt-wallet/releases
First let's lay out the overall procedure, more detailed instructions with screenshots are below:
- Start your Node and wait for it to Sync
- Open a Commandline or Shell and navigate to your Wallet's Folder
- Receive the Transactionfile and genereate a response
- Upload the response to the Exchange or Sender and wait for him to finalize the transaction
-
Start your Node and make sure it is fully snychronised before continuing!
-
Once your Node is running and fully synced you can receive the transactionfile with the following Command:
Make sure to replace the path and filename to point to the Transactionfile you want to receive!
mwc-wallet receive -i $HOME/Downloads/transaction.tx
<enter password>
mwc-wallet.exe receive -i c:\users\%username%\Downloads\transaction.tx
<enter password>
-
Upload the created Responsefile to your exchange or the Sender and wait for him to finalize the transaction
-
To check the current status of the transaction go in the Transaction tab. As we saw before the transaction still have no confirmation yet, you will need at least to wait 2 min to see it as confirmed.
- Once the transaction is confirmed and so received, the recipient needs to wait enough confirmations (set to 10 blocks by default) to spend the fund received recently.
- Once 10 confirmations (10 minutes) are reached, the recipient received his fund and can spend it directly after.
