Bitcoin Forum

Hello guys. I am newbie to crypto but today I bought 7 ETH when it was 780. What should I do know? My friend adviced me to fork it, like he did with bitcoin cash. But it's too hard for me and I can't find any info. Can anyone tell whole process how to get it for free now?

Next Ethereum fork is EtherZero (https://coincodex.com/crypto/etherzero/) that's going to occur on January 19th. Make sure you have access to your wallets private keys or you have ETH on Binance (https://coincodex.com/exchange/binance/) (which will support ETZ).

Okay. But I only have money on blockchain.info. Could it work?

No its not work like that, maybe your friend mean to hold it until the next ethereum fork tomorrow, in block 4936270. After that block end you have ratio 1:1 ethereum for ethereum zero. so thats mean tomorrow youll have 7 ethereum plus 7 ethereum zero

If Blockchain wallet support that fork you can have your etherzero, but just to make sure you can always move your ETH to your own wallet that you hold the private key, such as ledger, trezor, myetherwallet, metamask or mist.

You should be very careful with that and use only trusted resources when you are trying to fork smth. If we are talking about Ethereum fork here is tutorial that I used yesterday. It completely works with blockchain.info. But be careful and remember that you have only time befor 19 January to do this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkwcdOrau08

I dont here any of information about hard fork in etherium recently or maybe i am not aware about that.
But fork of etherium as i know is etheriun classic only and if there is other hard fork i think it will not good like bitcoin gold.

So If I purchase some ETH tonight will I make it in time to receive the Eth Zero fork token??

yeah your friend probably means to hold the ether until the hard fork. unless you have the knowledge to fork a coin and have the influence to help your forked coin gain traction.....

Hi. I back here to tell you that now I have additional menu in blockchain.info wallet for Ethereum Zero. I guess it's true. It says I gonna be claimed with 7 ETZ (I have 7 ETH in my wallet) on 19th January. U should try too. Who knows...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkwcdOrau08 here is instruction

I heard about ETH forks but I didn't know it will be this early until you mention it. I just want to clarify things, if I have eth in binance, I don't have anything to do to claim myET,right? Binance wil automatically give it to me?
Any information about coinomi?

Sorry, I only have information about blockchain.info wallet ;(

Search if your current exchange will support the fork,if not find another exchange like binance it will support the fork,get your eth to your binance's  wallet address and just wait until the drop in january 19,thats the only thing you need to do.

I suggest that you divide it in half, the first half is to keep safe it so that anything happens you still have eth to sell then the other half so that if good happens to fork, you will get a new coins that may valuable in the future.

Not only is the parent ETH forking for Etherzero but you also have the baby ETC is going to fork too in March for Callisto. Should be exciting times for those who hodl both ETH and ETC I know I got my fireworks ready!

I suggest you send all your ETH to Binance for 2 reason:
1- Binance Exchange has the lowest fee in the market
2- Binance support ETZ, this means you will get 1:1 ETZ from your ETH balance
Cheers!

Eth forks don't really have value, but it looks like any bitcoin forks can get listed on binance so try a bitcoin fork.

What do you mean baby? correct me if i am wrong but ETC is the original ethereum coin and ethereum was the upgraded forked coin,either way both are good coins to hold.

Yes, you are correct. I was suppose to tell godzillarekt007 about it. Ethereum was the fork so it should be the "baby" and its "parent" is the Ethereum Classic. Quite different from bitcoin forks in terms of how it is named.

I don't know about this fork but after looking at the website, the fork look very interesting on the paper, etherem platform with 0 TX fee, instant payments and high scalability. And this fork also have masternode feature and great roadmap. I will look forward to see this fork on the market. I just wonder why they don't show the dev team on the website, this project will look more legit if they show the dev members

As they say, a rich Pinocchio. Do not listen to any friends. If you lose your money, who will be to blame. You and only you, no one else.

I know,who bought Ethereum and then defend him until the 19th of January will get a hard fork,and it will take place tomorrow.

WARNING, SCAM! Everybody, the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkwcdOrau08 provided by "swity" and comfirmed as useful by the OP "denekin" leads to an obvious scam. First of all etherzero.org is the official site, not ethereum-zero.com. They want to get your passphrase for blockchain.info. The youtube channel is completely fake. SAVE YOUR MONEY!

yeah i have seen the news about a new fork coming tomorrow i think in order to have gain of the fork you have to have an account on exchange such as binance good luck with that.

Sounds great in theory, I don't like the fact that they are doubling the total supply and keeping the newly created coins for themselves (sorry for development purposes). Sounds a little off to me. If your going to double the supply then surely the payout to ETH holders should be 2:1?

Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah, the only person to blame would be oneself if they sold the coin to early.
Ethereum likes to go up after their forks.

Oh, how good that I did not sell the ethereum, but decided to wait.
I did not even get it that soon fork, thanks to the one who raised the topic up!

If I have my ETH on MEW, will I have the ETZ and ETH after the fork ?

I have the same wonder as you,
and another wonder why this hardfork do not public sooner but very close to the snapshot day

Hey, that's today! At which hour is the fork planned to occur? And more than that, how to get the forked coin?

The instruction to claim the free fork coin (Etherzero) will be updated in Etherzero website.

https://etherzero.org/

I don't know much about this particular ETZ fork but normally when a coin forks the recommended thing is to own the private key to the public address. If you say you have your ETH on MEW, that really means you have a public address and you own the private key. That's all you need. MEW itself doesn't store anything, it's just a website that lets you talk with the Ethereum network. The ETH and tokens on your public address can be accessed also from other software and websites like EtherDelta.

Now it gets a little bit more complicated with fork coins. That usually means a snapshot is taken of the amount of coins at your address at a specific time. Then you can import your address and key in a wallet (website or software) for the forked coin. You should now understand that the address and key give access to your ETH and tokens if sent to someone else. Do you think it's smart to give them to a new wallet with unknown reputation? The best thing you can do is move all ETH and tokens out of the address that was snapshotted to a new address. That could be a lot of work and quite expensive when you have many tokens. So an ever better idea is to send only your ETH to a new address before the snapshot!

Using a private key to get etz is really too dangerous :(

You just need ot move your ethereums to another exchange and you will receive your EthereumZero in there.. But it is risky,specially if you are always afraid of what can happen to you on the future. For me, it is a waste of time, this forked coin will probably be worth less than $10.

When will we get EtherZero for holding ethereum and will it be available at my ether wallat?

If my eth balance in edger nano s ,how can i get the ETZ ? Do i need to register anywhere? Is ledger nano s support this fork?

The information is interesting in this topic, but you need to be attentive, because a lot of speculation and scammers will want to seize your money. But while there are many questions about this fork ETZ. I'll wait for official information.

Do you know any exchanges supports this hard fork. it would be great like it was with Bitcoin fork?

I don't like forks. Moving your whole balance to get some profits is so much risk. I would never move my whole balance at once but the forks make you move it. I just don't think moving everything is a good idea no matter what you moving. Moving things at once means one mistake and it's all gone.

I don't understand why moving your funds is risky. As long as you do it carefully, you have nothing to worry.
If your eth was already in mew, then, I think you are good.
But it doesn't makes sense now cause the fork is finished.

Anyone with the latest update?

I unfortunately do not know anything about this fork. But I think that they do not knowingly do it and most likely it should do good, about the commission or payment for transactions I also can not know, because I'm not very familiar with the details of this fork

 I just heard few days ago about EherZero which is a fork of Ethereum coming up to the crypto space recently. You can avail yourself with the fork. Check here: https://etherzero.org/   for more details about the fork

Fork this time seems not so heard by people because of Ethereum, if only Bitcoin who do fork definitely Bitcoin prices will rise

This Denikin user is a thief!!  Today stole over $100K of ETH from people!!  Publishes video of ETHER ZERO claiming to steal the mnemonic and cleans out accounts!!  I am one of the victims, sadly to say as this ass...e keeps fooling people.  I am sadly one of those fools!!

I followed the link to the site - http://ethereum-zero.com and they stole ETH from me moved it to https://etherscan.io/address/0x91043168cf5c256df824038f1b7200eb7a5ab90c. 

I reported everywhere!! 

Denikin and Swifty are scammers and thieves... posting youtube link to steal your ETH...  all scam!!  Stay away!! Below are the types of posts they put on threads...

please tell me if I tomorrow translate the ETH to the binance, then I still have time to participate in this fork or is it too late? unfortunately, only now about it has learned (

Translate? what? this is very funny, he can not tell the difference between translating and sending lol.
Etherzero snapshot has taken place at 10:30 GMT am on Jan 20 and you sent Eth to Binance on Jan 19 so I think you can get Etherzero.

May I ask you where did you get the info that binance is supporting ETZ?
I just went to their official website and find some info about the fork. I just learned that binance has not yet announced their support to ETZ. Yes, I transferred my eth to binance and I'm not sure if I can get some ETZ. My fault for not having some research first. I should have left it in my coinomi, if I know.

I found out on Binance's twitter account but did not find the info, seems like hoax. I just found the info on the Etherzero website that they listed Binance https://etherzero.org/index.html?id=2#Exchanges

This is just a rumor from the developer team to attract investors and I do not easily believe with the less obvious info.
binance will only list the coins of the news they release, not from the coin team and have repeatedly happened quite clearly.

I ask someone from the Ethzero telegram about the listing of ETZ to binance and I got an answer from (I think) the admin. Binance has not yet announced or confirmed to list it as per his answer.
Maybe Mazt rhiezt is right, this is just to attract investors.
