Do I have to claim my EOS tokens?

[_Arnold_]

Hello

I bought some EOS, by exchanging Bitcoins for EOS, on Changelly.

Changelly then sent my EOS-tokens to my ether-wallet.

I can now see my EOS balance on etherscan.io.

Now, do I have to claim these tokens/coins somehow?

I hear people talk about "claiming" their EOS-tokens. Is this something I have to do to make sure that I am the owner to the coins or what is all this talk about claiming ?

Nope you don't need to do anything. You can rest assured of that. The people you talking about might have been claiming these coins from a airdrop or bounty or something. Ask in their Announcement thread they will help you there.

Nope, MyEtherWallet is great to store your tokens. EOS is a great buy at these levels, will challenge Ethereum no doubt

Ok

Well I read on their website that you should claim the tokens or something. Maybe just some lingo then.

Maybe it is just if you participate directly through their website.

It reads like this:

"To participate in the EOS Token distribution you will need to send ETH to the Ethereum smart contract address set forth below during a period of your choice. The EOS Tokens will be reserved for you to claim when the period is completed. The minimum contribution amount is 0.01 Ether."
