HOW TO BUY BLURT TOKEN ON HIVE-ENGINE
It was hive I sent, getting a tad worried now. Can I also send POB this way if it sorts itself out?
Tgal, I claim not to know, I leave that to others,
So I took it upon myself to try to help this get fixed. The issue is that you sent your Hive to Blurtlink. I'll explain how that works, as I myself didn't understand until earlier this year.
Hive engine doesn't support a direct transfer to ones Blurt Wallet. Seems ridiculous as I would assume they must have a Blurt wallet themselves to hold the Blurt being traded there.
So @Yehey (a witness here at Blurt) was able to negotiate with Aggroed and his team at Hive engine to allow him to set up his @blurtlink account to act as a bridge between Hive engine and Blurt wallets. His blurtlink account is the ONLY way one has to get Blurt out of Hive engine.
I've reached out to him in another comment here detailing exactly what happened with a snapshot and link to your wallet so he can quickly ascertain for himself what has happened and rectify from his end what is surely a frustrating experience for you. You can see my comment here.

Please also know that if you choose to send your hive to an exchange other than Hive engine using Blurtlink will not work, you will send the Blurt direct from those exchanges to your Blurt wallet. It is due to the restrictive structure of Hive engine that one must use Blurtlink instead of just directly transferring as one does from other exchanges.
I also wish to add that @yehey is considered one of the foundational structures here at Blurt, running not only a witness and his bridge between Hive engine and Blurt, but he also runs the only other front end I'm aware of for Blurt. I've watched so many drop off, and he has stuck with Blurt through all the troubles. He has had my witness vote from early on in my time here, and to put this in perspective half of my witness spots are open. I've no doubt once he has an understanding of what happened per my elucidating it for him, he will promptly rectify what has happened. He is very busy and I think due to that he wasn't fully grasping what happened, and probably just looked and saw you sent no Blurt on blurtlink and dismissed it as anything that might have gotten stuck in his system
Thankyou so much for intervening and trying to help me. yes I transferre the money as per your instructions to blurtlink. It wasn't all my money, that is still being powered down. I just wanted to test the method out for when I can transfer the rest. I still have not received it BTW. But I will wait patiently now.
Thank you. Yehey is a busy person and might take a day for him to see this with all he juggles.
I wanted to clarify I didn't write this post, I just noticed your issues in the comment section and jumped in to try to help. I also wanted to further explain if it wasn't clear that once you have the funds back, they will need be traded somewhere such as Hive Engine for Blurt before you would use the blurtlink bridge.
I personally used Ionomy when I sent my powered down Hive to trade. Ionomy allows one to send straight to your own Blurt wallet, something I don't understand why HE doesn't allow. But Hive Engine might be easier for you as its all the same passwords and doesn't require you to create a third account (Ionomy) and have to worry about yet another password/account to be compromised.
Hopefully will get rectified soon. :)
Yes problem is I've run out of blurt now so can't even post
We can't be having that. I just sent you 50 Blurt to keep you going until this gets sorted, and your rewards start coming to you.
Oh wow, thankyou so much @practicalthought that is very kind of you. I'll post my article I couldn't last night and dedicate it to you. xx
