Hi Guys,

Question, I want to invest, can I send from an exchange account? I.e Kraken or Bittrex? I can see when logging in I can send to a particular wallet.

How do my ETN coins get delivered to me? Do they sit in my online account with you guys? Or do I need an offline wallet?

Thanks

NO

Please do not send from exchange accounts.

This is not going to work.

The best thing to do is send to your own desktop wallet, and then send it from there to the crowdsale.

If you cant do that, find a secure respected online wallet instead.


I just deposit some btc through local exchange here in Indonesia, it works just fine btw
I received the tokens in just few seconds after confirmation from my exchange that my withdrawal is succeded
They even include some instructions on how to deposit eth/btc through exchanges like Kraken and Gemini


If you are calling an online place where you can buy bitcoin or eth for fiat, and there you have an online wallet, with your own private key, that is OK.

What you can not do is send from an exchange where you dont have the private key, such as Bittrex.

This is not because there is anything wrong with Bittrex, it is just because Bittrex and other altcoin exchanges like it are not designed to be used as an online wallet.

You need to know the different between an online wallet and an altcoin exchange.

Even if you are lucky and everything works out, you are playing with fire and basically dont have a receipt.

If you send from an altcoin exchange and your ETN coins do show up, you most likey will never get them because you wouldnt be able to prove how much you sent, and that you sent them.

i thought you are a lawyer......but now i know you actually a noob Shocked
