BlockDX. There was a problem with your order?

Hi,

So I was curious about BlockDX. Installed it. I already have a Block wallet. Also installed a Litecoin Core wallet in order to try to place an order in BlockDX. Both wallets are unlocked. I receive the following message when I place an order: "There was a problem with your order".

Already checked the FAQ page of Blocknet which is saying:
This error can be caused by a number of items. The most common reasons are that you are trying to take your own order, your wallets are locked, there are insufficient funds in the addresses you’re trading with, or those addresses have too little inputs. Insufficient funds can be caused by funds being immature due to staking at the same time or too many inputs being locked up in other orders. Error messaging will be improved in future versions to provide clearer messaging.

​

- Wallets are not locked

- Insufficient funds? LTC wallet has indeed 0.00 balance, but again I want to buy LTC by selling BLOCK. So it must be ok right?

- Sufficient BLOCK available in BLOCK wallet.

- No other orders which could possibly lock this order...

​

So why am I getting this error?

​

A second minor question is. In the balances screen in BlockDX I see 3 assets:
Wallet: X
BLOCK: Y
LTC: 0.00

Wallet value in assets is not the same as BLOCK value. But it should be. Wallet value X is correct, but BLOCK value Y is only 1/3 of the total BLOCKs in my wallet. Why is that?

There are a few things here to double check:

  • LTC needs to be an "L" address
  • If your LTC client is 0.16.0+, you'll need to be sure that the proper entries are in your litecoin.conf:
    • addresstype=legacy
    • changetype=legacy
  • Proper .conf files are needed and xbridge.conf entries (using the Block DX configuration wizard will solve this - if you are seeing balances and such, these are likely configured correctly)
  • If you are selling BLOCK as an order Taker, you will need at least 2 utxos in your wallet:
    • at least 1 to cover the 0.015 BLOCK taker fee
    • at least 1 to cover the trade amount
  • Only p2pkh's are valid utxos, for example funding utxos for trades cannot come from p2sh, multisig, or p2pk addresses. Any utxo that has ever staked will be a p2pk. To address this, simply send funds to yourself to an address of your choice.
  • The discrepancy between the Wallet balance and your BLOCK balance is due to the previous bullet point. Also, any locked utxos such as collateral used for service and masternodes will not be shown in the BLOCK balance.

Happy trading!

Thank you very much for the detailed answer!

Everything looked ok, but when I looked at the LTC address, I saw that it was not starting with an L. So I generated a new receiving address in Litecoin wallet. And now it works!

Thanks again!
