09:10 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> How do I generate a stellar key? or how to create a stellar account?

09:12 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> you can create a key set in many ways with some of the wallets or tools. but in many cases if your looking to setup in Live the exchange will create an account for you

09:13 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> do you want to play in testnet bitcoinservcs ?

09:21 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> Thanks sacarlson, playing at tesnet now and following the steps

09:22 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> what is this site for?

09:24 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> the #general chat for stellar-public? is to ask general questions or help others that might have problems using some of http://Stellar.org|Stellar.org services

09:26 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> Great!

09:32 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> Do you suggest storing secret keys in the cloud? any good method to storage secret key oher than printing or in a external sotrage device?

09:32 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> *storage

09:33 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> my wallet encrypts them when I store them in files

09:34 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> where can I get that wallet?

09:34 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> it's a very primitive wallet just for example but I can post it and it's code here if you like

09:35 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> please

09:35 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> this is one of them http://sacarlson.github.io/transaction_tools.html

09:36 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> the code for it and the rest of my experments can be seen here: https://github.com/sacarlson/sacarlson.github.io

09:36 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> Thanks! will check! How can I see my new lumens? at http://stellar.org|stellar.org I can 't see them from my dashboard

09:37 <stellar-slack1> <sacarlson> oh and what you were asking about saving and encrypting keys would be in this https://github.com/sacarlson/sacarlson.github.io/blob/master/seed_save_recover.html

11:34 <stellar-slack1> <datou> http://www.256kw.com/lucky/281f3d12cadc4ac79555052c9f8c8279/ holiday, lucky day. Thank eno. Generous eno give us a big gift of 1225.0 Lumens

15:46 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> Do I need to send some lumens to initiate my account? i don't see more settings or stuff at my stellar account other than the option to send some lumens. Also I am using the key created from the tesnet, not the one created from opening an account, which I don't see the option to register an account at http://stellar.org|stellar.org in order to open a new stellar account .

15:51 <stellar-slack1> <jed> bitcoinservcs: the wallets you can use right now are centaraus (a mobile wallet) or http://lobstr.co|lobstr.co or https://www.stellar.org/account-viewer/#/

15:51 <stellar-slack1> <jed> you don't register at http://stellar.org|stellar.org for anything

15:52 <stellar-slack1> <jed> You can use the testnet key on the live net also

15:52 <stellar-slack1> <jed> > Do I need to send some lumens to initiate my account? yes your account doesn't really exist until it holds lumens

15:53 <stellar-slack1> <jed> eno is giving them away here: http://www.256kw.com/lucky/281f3d12cadc4ac79555052c9f8c8279/

15:53 <stellar-slack1> <jed> so you can get some free ones

16:21 <stellar-slack1> <tigre> bravo! @eno

16:41 <stellar-slack1> <bitcoinservcs> How can I get the 10,00 lumens that I got from tesnet: 3. Your account should contain 10,000 lumens. Run this command to view your account using the Horizon API. Can I also get lumens from 2 differents priv/pub keys? or just one of them?

16:53 <stellar-slack1> <jed> does this help: https://www.stellar.org/developers/learn/concepts/accounts.html
