    This thread is for people who are facing the issue of-
    "not enough to purchase sstx"
    When trying to buy tickets.

    The solution is present is some other thread in the forum too but it will probably take a lot of time to be found out. So I have started this thread.

    This error occurs because of coins being present in different addresses.
    To Solve this the steps are-

    1) Since the consolidate command is a rather large transaction, so the fee for the transaction will probably be higher than the standard 0.05. So we should set it on something lower.

    dcrctl -u USERNAME -P PASSWORD --wallet settxfee 0.03

    2)Consolidate wallet-

    dcrctl -u USERNAME -P PASSWORD --wallet consolidate 10000

    Thats all. This should solve your problem and you will be able to purchase 1 ticket per block.

    I think you got it wrong and you misunderstood some things. At least for the time being:

    Consolidate command doesn't consolidate accounts, it consolidates addresses balances into one address (without erasing the other generated addresses of course).

    By now almost everyone have only one default account with spendable funds - balance. These spendable funds might spread through many of the default account addresses and someone can choose with the consolidate command of how many of these addresses balances (10000 in your above example) will consolidate into one address, so that one address will have the total spendable balance until it will start spreading through the future transactions to other default addresses again.
