Just a heads up, if you buy Qtum make sure, 100% sure, 150% sure that they are in a swap enabled wallet or exchange. I'd recommend using Bittrex for it, they've officially confirmed that they will support the swap on the 4th.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I'm sure am using bittrex. But why is it matter though? Will something bad happen if they are not swap enabled? I'm sure a lot of readers reading this conversation also wants to know
Not necessarily bad. The thing is that currently all Qtum out there are ERC20 tokens, that means they are tokens on the Ethereum chain. Qtum is finally launching their own blockchain platform and will exchange your ERC20 for their "real" token, called Qtum ignition. If you don't have your Qtum in an exchange or wallet ready for the swap then the company has no way of knowing that you own Qtum and should receive the new tokens.
Oh I see, now I get it. Thanks a bunch for the heads up! I've done researching about this matter as well. I wish I know about Qtum momentum a week ago, I wouldn't be stuck on other alts by now :( should've read more news.
I hope its not too late to enter now. Thanks a bunch @paperbull
