I'm glad I've only invested a small amount into Cardano, thank you @dan for the heads up - just sold my stake in them. Also, I just purchased open.EOS on the Bitshares exchange and it's sitting in my Bitshares exchange wallet now. Do I have to register these tokens now on the website or send it to myetherwallet? I've heard some things about that US investors are unable to participate.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Yes, if you live is the USSA you need to register your EOS using myetherwallet. Yes, prisoners such as yourself are forbidden by your SEC to participate in this token distribution.
it's ok to trade for the EOS tokens on Bitshares though. right?
@showtime24 I actually asked @stan that exact question on a livestream and his replied was quite enlightening. You can see exactly what he said on my post here : https://steemit.com/bitshares/@daltono/american-gothic-remastering-feat-stan-larimer-and-connie-willis
Thank you @daltono @ponts I will look into this and if I have any questions, I know who to talk to! Are there any other steps, like do I have to register anything on the eos.io website? Use a vpn?
Well if you are using Exodus wallet to hold your EOS like I am, my blog post also has a link to the Exodus website that has a very thorough walkthrough. I decided to trade my open.EOS for erc20 EOS because I had no plans of actually trading me EOS. So there really was no point in holding it on BitShares. Be sure to read my blog post I linked on my first comment for a complete explanation.
Here is a reply I got from Exodus support regarding EOS:

I've been holding off registering hoping that Exodus will take care of it for me.
They may, but I didn't want to even have to worry about having to do it anymore. Relying on others can be stressful at times. I prefer handling business.
Yes, I read your blog post thank you. I have exodus, but I currently have my open.EOS on the BTS exchange. Do I need to move the open.EOS to exodus first and then move that to MyEtherwallet with a VPN?
You would want to transfer your open.EOS to your Exodus wallet. From that point you will follow this guide here : http://support.exodus.io/article/65-i-ve-received-eos-tokens-in-exodus-how-do-i-register-them
You won't actually have to send your EOS from Exodus to MyEtherWallet. The guide I just linked will walk you through how to connect your Ethereum Private Keys from Exodus to MyEtherWallet.
The guide is very self explanatory, just read it carefully and do just as it says and everything will work out accordingly. If you have any troubles just reply back to me here :)
Thanks for the valuable info. The big problem with crypto is that change happens at a lightning fast pace!
I can attest to the value of this guide. It's not hard at all. But allow yourself to follow the step by step procedure at a leisurely pace. Don't be in a big hurry and don't be multi-tasking. Take your time, it's easy.
Would you be able to post the link? would save me time. Thanks! @daltono
