Bought EOS on an exhange, now I want to transfer them to MyEtherWallet

[kcfrau]

I'm pretty new to CryptoCurrencies and a couple of weeks go I bought EOS on Kraken. Later I realised that I can't store my EOS on Kraken if I want to get real EOS Tokens when they get converted in June 2018. SoI opened a MyEtherWallet account to connect it to EOS so that I can participate in the distribution. Does anyone know a good youtube tutorial or similar on how to connect MyEtherWallet and transfer EOS tokens that I already own on Kraken? SHould I transfer my EOS tokens to MyEtherWallet before or after making the connection?

I'm really new to this so please excuse any minconceptions that I might have about how this works. If you notice any misconceptions in above text and have time to explain, please do so. I'm really excited about cryptocurrencies but it's still a bit confusing to me and I'm learning everyday.

Open a wallet in myetherwallet.com, Then you will see your address in right side of the page. Withdraw the amounts you want from Kraken to that address. Just this.

This is pretty much it, if you experienced any problem refresh the page or try with a new browser

Welcome to cryptoworld my dear,
first you already bought a token based on ETH on kraken,and you can not store it in there so choose MEW[MyEtherWallet],
as far as i can see,MEW already connected or you don't need to add it anymore because it's default Token and you can directly send it into your MEW wallet,
so,just send it to your ETH MyEtherWallet directly and wait for it,
but remember you need 0,1 ETH or around that much to see your token in there.

In Brief :

EOS on Kraken >>> Send it to ETH Address on your MEW >>> Wait for it on MEW [You have min 0,1 ETH to see your balance in your right side]

do you understand my dear ?

You just need to put your ETH in the withdrawal field of kraken.

No matter if you are connected or not on myetherwallet. After a while you should see your token balance, in the right column.

Yes I understand how I can withdraw my money from Kraken to MEW. WHat I'm wondering is, how to I get the EOS blockchain to recognize me holding the EOS tokens on 1 June 2018. What I'm referring to is this:

https://steemit.com/eos/@stellabelle/can-i-send-my-eos-i-bought-on-an-exchange-to-my-ethereum-address-which-is-registered-to-eos-infographic

"Here goes:
The EOS blockchain is not alive yet, but it will be after June 2018 (that’s the target date). These new EOS tokens will have specific functionalities, and these will only be live on the EOS blockchain in the future. In order to get these new EOS blockchain tokens that will exist in the future, you need to register your Ethereum wallet address with a public key to EOS. So all the EOS you own now will need to be in that same Ethereum wallet that you registered with EOS.

Think of it this way:
Your Ethereum wallet that holds your EOS tokens is like a house, with an address. You put your EOS tokens inside this house. But the future EOS blockchain has no idea where this house is. You must register your Ethereum wallet address with EOS so that you can get your new EOS tokens that reside on the future EOS blockchain."

I think I figured it out. I followed this guide(excluding the exodus parts).

When I check using the method below it seems like I have successfully paired my tokens to the EOS chain.

Now that I've figured out how to pair my MEW to the EOS blockchain. Can I keep transferring EOS to my MEW or was that pairing only done for the tokens that I stored in my MEW at the time I did the pairing?

I would like to bump this because I am in the same situation. I bought my eos tokens on an exchange. Do I have to have move everyone of them I own on to MEW during the registration process in order for them not to be frozen or can I leave some on the exchange?

If I have to have them all on MEW during  the registration process would it be possible for me to put them back on the exchange and not have them become frozen june 1st or do they all have to be on MEW when june 1st rolls around?

Thank you

Exchanges will most likely let you withdraw the EOS Ethereum tokens, which can always be converted to actually EOS tokens at any stage of the transition. However, withdrawing your EOS to a wallet is probably recommended since you have more control.

I'm pretty sure that there won't be a situation where your EOS is "frozen" or anything like that.

Obviously, if you aren't going to trade EOS actively then simply withdraw to MEW or Exodus which is what I recommend, so that you get more flexibility come time for the mainnet to launch for EOS. Even if you want to trade you can probably withdraw some now.

Per the Exodus article you linked to above, "You will only have to perform the registration process once. Any additional EOS tokens sent to your wallet after you complete the registration process will also be registered."

I already put mine on my MEW without any problems. Just transfer to your MEW ether address and wait for a few minutes to confirm.
