Need help. I'm pretty sure I lost my EBTC but I set up a my ether wallet (MEW paper wallet) and sent EBTC to it using its ETH public address. I didn't know I was was supposed to take other steps first. Did I lose my EBTC?
Did you set up the gas price correctly? Sometimes it takes some time. How long has it been? Have you checked with https://ethplorer.io/Interesting, I've been looking at etherscan.io and it doesn't show my address or EBTC balance but ethplorer.io does. I didn't set up any gas price at all. Now that the EBTC appears to be safe, can you tell me what steps I need to do now regarding gas price etc? Or is it ok to leave it as is?
I check the gas in this webpage https://ethgasstation.info/
If you set it lower than the minimun safe your order might take days or be rejected! So it is better to check it first.
Also, when you use a new wallet always start with a small amount just in case.
Then you go to the top right in MEW and change the GWEI accordingly! The higher the more fees you pay but if it is too low it might get stuck.
Does this help?
