  • 
  • The main address is a special address that can be used multiple times without change.

    • Pullup wallet transfer
    • Smart contract transfer

• The biggest problem with the previous full-node wallet was that the transaxtion history could not be displayed and the Pullup wallet can display the transaction history.

Buying Shares

It is not enough to have an equity pool (Stake Node). You cannot earn any voting rewards. Users need to buy shares in the equity pool. The equity pool can obtain voting rights at a certain probability when the block is generated. When you get the best equity pool by comparison, you can click on the [Purchase Share] button to buy shares.

There are a few things to note when buying:

• Account needs to choose the fund account with assets
• Ideally, users who purchase shares do not need to choose a voting address because the equity pool will vote for them.
  • But if there is a situation where the equity pool is maliciously attacked.
  • At this stage, you can use your own voting account to conduct SOLO voting and reduce your losses.
• The purchase amount needs to be the maximum amount that you can bear and the system will automatically help you buy the share with the current fare.
• Purchase up to 1000 shares per transaction.

• Click [Next] to enter the password and then click [OK], you can see the transaction on the account details page.
• 
• You can see the transaction confirmation after about 32 confirmation blocks, and you can see the updated data in the equity pool.
