[How To]: Buy/Move/Store ERC20 eMAID

2 Likes

Oh nvm, it was the current gas price.

What I do not see reasonable is Bitcoin withdrawal fee 0.001 ($60) while tx cost was only 0.0001 ($6).

Indeed unreasonable, and common with other exchanges. However lightning is an option, where I’ve used several times for speedy transaction with zero fee.

Am helping a few people around Europe right now.

The one person I know in the UK I am helping buy has been told by Bitmart UK residence people are restricted.

Come on UK!! What the hell!!

I’m UK based and it works fine for me .

I also have a uk based friend who reported the same issue trying to buy emaid from bitmart. I haven’t tried myself

Did you use a uk passport to register? When was this?

Don’t believe so I think I’m on there bottom tier so didn’t have KYC.

I might not be 100% on that but I don’t remember any hoops to jump through. And I joined after the eMaid announcement.

Thank you. Interesting. Looks like there are issues now though.

I do miss the good old days of btc-e and cryptsy

BTC-E like open wound for me, I lost quite a lot there. It was perfect exchange before they destroyed it.

Hi guys. What’s the easiest way to get emaid off an exchange into cold storage/paper wallet? Is there an equivalent of bitaddress.org (that way was easy!)

MyEtherWallet.com (MEW) is a way I’ve used before.

You can have MEW operating on an offline computer & sign transactions from there, or I guess you could make a paper wallet, but then the only way to spend is importing the private key.

I expect there are other options, but that’s one I’ve used.

Has anyone had any joy with MEW Wallet to swap eMAID for a different token (ETH, USDC, etc)?

When I attempt to proceed with a swap, nothing happens for me.

I’m testing the process for going from MAID, to eMAID, to something more liquid, to GBP in my bank account.

Maybe I should try uniswap directly, but MEW Wallet looks like it should be easy, but it just isnt working for me.

Have you tried 1inch ?
Id not heard of mew.

With https://app.1inch.io/ you can connect MEW wallet and make a swap.
Uniswap seems that it did not support it.

My MEW wallet seems to be flaky. Doesnt seem to connect at all to mobile browser and then won’t sign correctly for linked laptop browser (using 1inch site)

What wallets do folks use here?

Not tried their wallet yet. Maybe worth a try.

Metamask as it is well known and only for uniswap.
