How to check which EOS public key is mapped to your ETH address with MyEtherWallet (MEW)
Some people are asking how to check if their registration was successfully processed. Even though registering your EOS public key can be done anytime between now and 48 hours after the end of the ICO, having the ability to check this may bring some people peace of mind. If there is an empty result, just be sure you register your EOS key before the ERC20 tokens are frozen 48 hours after the end of the 341 day ICO.
- Go to https://www.myetherwallet.com/#contracts
2.Under heading Select Existing Contract is a dropdown, select EOS Contribution - Select "Keys" from the dropdown.
- In the Address field, enter your Ethereum address.
- Click
Read - The EOS address that has been mapped Ethereum wallet will be displayed below the input, if it is not check your address and try again, or check out the article I linked at the bottom of this article.
It is also possible to update the EOS public key mapped to your ETH address if you see a problem...
Is there a way to check if the private key is working ?
THATS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW TOO! i bet they are working on it.
Check offline if you cant wait for official https://github.com/webdigi/EOS-Offline-Private-key-check
Good question! I think that is the most important to know. Waiting for more info about the matter.
Yes. Binaries will be released soon. https://github.com/EOSIO/genesis/tree/master/tools/keys
update
I found more tools to check:
https://eosauthority.com
https://eoscountdown.com
Not that I know of. But here you can check if your public key is included in the snapshot: https://eosio.github.io/genesis/tools/account-name/
It seems this file is not up to date tho (I read 4 december 2017 on reddit). I hope they update it soon!
Now you made me nervous, since my ETH address is mapped but your link said NOPE.
Please see the notice on that tool
too bad my upvote would be useless now, that is an usefull tool that I didn't know about, thanks!

Thank you, this is what I've been looking for
thanks your part of the reason I was able to do this, so easily
Thank you for this.
Is there a difference between registering an address and claiming tokens?
Yes. When you
claimyou're claiming ERC20 tokens. Registering an address is for after ERC20 tokens are frozen around July 3rd 2018. Read More, scroll to Step 3 and read very closelyHow do I do this on metamask?
MetaMask is for sending simple transactions and exposing Ethereum API into the DOM so that web-applications can be more easily developed for Ethereum. It is not capable of executing smart contracts directly.
That said, it doesn't matter what wallet you're using for this step. The only thing required here is your Ethereum address, it's a constant, or read only function.
You would have to get private key from metamask and login to Myetherwallet with the private key to do it. Which is not recommended way to login to a website.
amazing post , well done, do you know if there is a away to see your eos tocken now ??
If you've claimed the tokens after the window you contributed to has closed, https://steemit.com/eos/@sandwich/how-to-transfer-eos-erc20-tokens-using-myetherwallet
How do you check on Exodus?
This is an awesome article. Simple and accurate when referring to different keys. I have a question, the EOS contract address here and the one on EOS.io are the same, except some letters are in opposite case (upper and lower). Is this ok? Also do I need to save the eos private and public keys for future forks, etc? The EOS public and private keys I got from @nadje are different from the ones displayed in the string box for verification. The one in the verification is the same as the online eos key on eos.io and does not start with EOS. Is that ok? Thank you for your expertise here.
Thanks for the post! Now I can sleep soundly knowing I've registered correctly!
