Did you missed EOE Mainnet registration? Still you can try this solution

in #eos6 years ago (edited)

Hey Steemitians,

Deadline of Registering EOS tokens were June 2nd 21:59:59 UTC, any EOS ERC20 in an unregistered address will be frozen. If you're reading this right now because the EOS mainnet is live and you've just realized that you didn't register your tokens, then you might be in luck. You can now try to register your ethereum address offline.

In simple terms you are creating a mapping between EOS block chain and Ethereum block chain addresses so that equal or swapping ratio of token can be allocated in EOS blockchain.

This process is also knows as Fallback method

The fallback method is meant to capture as many unregistered tokens as possible and make them available to their owners immediately at launch.

Fallback method identifies the Ethereum addresses that hold EOS ERC-20 tokens but do not have corresponding EOS public keys mapped to them. First, it grabs a public key for that address from the Ethereum block chain, and then the Ethereum public key is "converted" into an EOS public key.

I had discovered this method yesterday night discussing the issue with EOS Telegram group admins and it did worked for me.

So I had raised a query in group that I have missed the deadline and what could be possible ways to handle the tokens now.

So as suggested in the chat we can use Chrome extension Scatter like below

Or alternatively use eoskey.io and download an offline tool for respective machine and generate the Ethereum EOS mapped key.

Step 1: Enter you ethereum address (which holds locked EOS tokens) private key

Step 2: Click on Generate

Step 3: You will find Ethereum address (Public Key), EOS address (Public Key) and EOS Private Key

Keep the generated Private Key safely and can be used when EOS mainnet is ready to use.

I have tried both the methods and both provided same results.

Note: It’s suggested to us an offline machine during Key generation.

Hope this was a useful read. Stay tuned and keeping steeming.

Cheers.
