Back in 2018 I put some MAID in a cold/paper wallet via omniwallet.org. I don’t care to trade until Safe Network Token swap is available.
From all I’m reading here, I think I can just continue to keep MAID in my paper wallet?
I do have a Trezor now and debating if I should move MAID from my paper wallet to Trezor, but not sure if there is a good reason to do that? Or even how to go about it? Would I need to go through Bittrex to do the transfer and pay fees?
If you are happy with keeping it on your paper wallet then keeping it there is your safest option. If for any reason you want to move them then make sure you understand the process before starting and I’d suggest moving a small amount first to ensure your understanding of the process is correct. Move to then move from.
Paper wallets are as secure as the security of your recorded keys.
Also, if you decide to move them to Trezor, make sure it is on a bitcoin address starting with 1 or 3, because addresses starting with bc are not supported by the OMNI protocol.
The only reason to move them is if you decide to sell in parts. This way you save yourself the work of creating a new cold wallet after each transaction.
Would anyone be kind enough to offer instructions on how to withdraw Omni Maidsafe from Bittrex global?
Currently following these steps will offer updates as I go through with it
1)create new legacy BTC address on LedgerLive
2)Go to bittrex and select “send” to the BTC address
Open question would be: How will we be able then use the ledger held Omni Maidsafe for eventual conversion to SNT?
I would suggest that starting with “1” is best as this guarantees the most compatibility with the most s/w. For instance the omniwallet had issues with addresses starting with “3” for the longest time and I have never followed it up to know if they “fixed” it or not
To get snt, you may have to sign a msg proving you own said address, or possibly import your priv key to omni wallet, and send your maid to a burn address.
Wouldn’t call them a “well run exchange”… I had too many “incidents” with them over the 9 years as their client, they have zero respect for their customers and their funds.
