EOS right now is an erc20 token, on the ETH network, by June when EOS launches all tokens will need to be registered then actual EOS tokens will be distributed....Folks holding EOS in the states or China may run into problems with this, but I haven't looked into it yet, if anyone has info on this please share!
Could you please elaborate why you think someone in the States might have problems registering erc20 with EOS? I understand China, but there is no regulation in the States regarding ICO's or crowdfunding like EOS is doing. Thank you
You're right @eallen there's no regulation in the states (at least that I have found). We might have to use a vpn everytime we deal with EOS :(
You should be running a VPN all the time, for security.
The IRS released a warning about ICO's on July 25th, saying they may be illegal to participate in, also if you try to by ICO EOS tokens on EOS.io they specifically say US based residents are forbidden from participating. If they find out someone else bought them for you or you used a VPN they will report you.... There is a lot of grey area here.... Hope Im wrong but be careful
Ive also heard Dan Larimer mention it is a couple of interviews. We can pick them up on secondary markets but when you go to register them and are based in the US, might run into problems or have to lie....
But yes I'm pretty sure you can transfer EOS to Bitshares
That is the best solution, I believe.
note that while holding EOS, it is currently ERC20 coin. Once the main net launches new EOS coins would be exchanged instead of EOS ERC20 coins, after which it will be and real EOS token (not ERC20 anymore).. when that happens (i guess June) the current coins have to be in a compatible wallet.. myetherwallet or metamask.. real carefully at eos.io site about this.. if eos erc20 coins are incompatible wallet, this exchange will not occur, and you'd lose coins
It isn't only compatible wallet. You have to register the wallet you want your EOS to be transfered to via eos.io website.
Yeah you can transfer them. I transfer my EOS from Bitfinex to my openledger DEX, so they are now stored as Open.EOS
I would be cool if someone could post a easy Tutorial of how to claim the EOS Token after ICO ends in June... Everyone please don't forget this !
I already claimed my tokens. On the eos.io website, right after purchasing them.
The website said that you can claim them and even have to do so before some time, so I did.
So please a Tutorial or some link how to claim...THX
I remember I did just fine with the website itself. I used metamask.
are you US based? What info do they ask for?
I am not US based. In Czech republic, the government is so slow we will probably never have any regulations whatsoever.
Can you claim my coins lol
