HowTo: Move your MAID from an exchange (Poloniex before January 30th, 2020)

Hi!

First of all thanks @Dimitar for the great effort put in to make this guide!

There are few things that I have not yet fully understood though, perhaps someone can give me some guidance?

  1. The guide says “The only hardware wallet that allows you to work directly with MAID to date is Trezor.” Does this suggest using:

a) wallet.trezor.io - The “standard” Trezor wallet (which afaik does not have a “MAID specific” UI for sending and receiving MAID, but does indeed display a bitcoin UI and recipient adress which I guess is what the guide refers to)?

…or…

b) www.omnitrezor.com/ - is this the suggested wallet to use by the guide? It is also the wallet that Trezor lists on their homepage for MAID on their Trezor Hardware Wallet (Official) | The original and most secure hardware wallet. page.

  1. If the answer to the first question is to use the “standard” wallet and simply use its bitcoin interface to receive the MAID, how can I later send my MAID from that adress? When reading this forum post it seems like getting the private key for the used adress is not that easy? Has this changed in any way, and if not does anyone have a recommended way of getting the private for the adress?

Thanks a lot once again, and sorry if I have missed some detail when reading about this.

Cheers!
