Same here. I think we have to claim the iota. But in the new software there are no claim button.
Ok, you have to ask David to claim the iotas. He said:
David Sønstebø
There are a 3 step process:
1. I need your seed to verify that you are indeed the owner of the address. Don't worry about giving over your seed, the iotas tied to your old seed are no longer tied to it.
2. You need to make a new seed and generate a new address that I will send you the iotas to. You do both of these things in the GUI. The seed is simply your password, come up with one (81 random made up of only latin characters and the number 9) and store it somewhere safe. Then you go to 'RECEIVE' section in the GUI and generate an address, this will take some time as your processor is doing PoW. Once it's done copy it and give it to me.3. You need to decide how much iota you want to donate to Foundation and also if you want to donate to 'Big deal' initiative. It's 100% voluntary, but I encourage everyone to donate over 5% to the foundation and 2-3% to the 'Big Deal' initiative for the longevity of IOTA in the following weeks, months and years.
