Where can I get a Madesafecoin address?
Just use omniwallet and generate a new bitcoin address. The maidsafecoins will be sent to the bitcoin address.
Welcome to the forum, as member 2500
Hereâs a nice topic with more info:|
As @Blindsite2k mentioned, http://www.omniwallet.org is 1 option to transfer MAID from Bittrex/Polo/etc.
Set up an account. There should be a âMaidsafecoin addressâ to deposit from Bittrex/Polo/etc.
Option #2 is the most secure, and not much harder once you feel confident that it works.
Here is a post by @Jabba (that triple-instilled my confidence), which I will modify:
"It takes less than 30 seconds to go to http://www.bitaddress.org, wiggle the mouse and type randomly until it hits 100% and you get a public and private key pairing generated that you own and control.
Literally all you have to do is send your MAID to that public address and keep the private key noted down very safely (in triplicate prob).
When you want to access your coins it takes 1 minute to go to http://www.omniwallet.org, create a wallet or open the one you use regularly, click âimportâ in âmy addressesâ section, then you just type in the private key you have written down and youâre done, your coins are now in your OmniWallet.
Safe, free, quick and very easy. Never a good idea to store your coins on exchange long term, a lot of people have learned that lesson the hard and expensive way.
I only learned how to do this myself quite recently, I was amazed how easy it actually is. Spend 2 minutes learning how to do it, itâs worth it and far easier than youâd think."
Option #3 is to get a Maidsafecoin address stored on a different website, which exists. But I donât know much about those personally. (Honesty is a good thing, right?) If someone points us in the direction of other websites, I could edit this post to include them and thus be a great post for literally all the current ways to get a Maidsafecoin address. I remember hearing http://www.blockchain.info has private keys you control, and is more secure than OmniWallet is right now because of 2FA (actually I donât know about the 2FA part; I think itâs just another place you can control your private key). There was also another website akin to OmniWallet whose name escapes me, possibly with better security as well because of 2FA. (OmniWalletâs not-absolutely-perfect security doesnât bother me too much, but maybe thatâs a flaw on my part. It would be a flaw on many peopleâs part, too, because there are a huge amount of people who use OmniWallet today/presently. And they donât have 2FA currently.) Maybe there is yet another website(s), too! BTW OmniWallet-type websites are useful so you can have one place to view all your coinsâ information. Some people might think it best to never use a website like that, even if it was high level security, because there are other ways to view your coinsâ information. But OmniWallet does have a lot of information all at once to view for your convenience, so thereâs that, instead of finding all that information manually all the time.
Thx for all the good information!
