Hi all!

Alot of times someone ask how to create a MEW, or My Ether Wallet. The reason for this is that it all seems like high math to alot  off people ( including myself 1.5 years ago Smiley

I found some good explainations on the internet, both text and video, wich helped me alot to overcome that step to make a own wallet!

So to start what is MEW?

MyEtherWallet is an open source, javascript, client-side tool for generating Ethererum Wallets & sending transactions. Created by kvhnuke and tayvano.

MyEtherWallet gives you the ability to generate new wallets so you can store your Ether yourself, not on an exchange. This process happens entirely on your computer, not our servers. Therefore, when you generate a new wallet, you are responsible for safely backing it up.

MyEtherWallet.com & MyEtherWallet CX are not "web wallets". You do not create an account or give themyour Ether to hold onto. All data is created on our computer/your browser, not theirservers. It's not a website where you put your Ether and theystore itfor you. Theyjust make it easy for you to save your wallet information in your browser/on your computer. Then theygive you a place where you can access that information and do stuff with it. TLTR:)

So,
My Ether Wallet is not a standard Web Wallet. It does not allow you to create an account and to store your Ether on their servers, they simply allow you create a wallet, which is yours to store and keep SAFE!

Safe is probally the most important word in here.
Always keep your private keys to yourself! Make hardcopies of them, at least 2 and store those on different locations! ( in case of fire etc ). Also if you are all into nice little airdrops or you want to become the nect bounty hunter in town, remember  to use different MEW wallets to store your value and your airdrops etc. Its the safest way for you!

Here are the links to the vids and text tutorials.

I really hope this will be the bridge for many to use MEW!, nevertheless i recommend hard wallets for sure! It all depends on the value imo. Lets make crypto accepted and easy to understand together.

Greetings! Cool

Having a My Ethereum Wallet is a very good idea and a handy one too because of the excellent security it provides. But a lot of the newbies get a bit scared to open it, because of the complexity of the steps. So overall this is a very helpful post indeed for those who want to have one in their possession.

MyEtherWallet, as before, is the most reliable and secure wallet for storing your cryptocurrency assets for the Ethereum network. I am not sure that now there are analogues of this wallet. I strongly recommend it to beginners in this field.

Great article, at least for newbies who have the tendencies of falling for phishing sites. As a newbie, ensure you double check and you're careful with everything you do on crypto since they're all online. You may not be able to undo a lot of things, and sometimes it may cost you losing your money.
So;
1. Be careful always.
2. When in doubt, ask questions
3. Never be in a haste to do anything crypto related
4. Read always, especially instructions.
5. There are different wallet types for different BTC, and different classes of altcoins. If you send ETH to a BTC wallet, YOU'LL LOSE IT.

MyEtherWallet also known as MEW is an offline wallet and it's very popular among ETH users of the crypto community. However, there has been some controversy related to the Gas Price and Gas Limit of MEW recently, where users complained that Gas Price was fluctuating but they have already solved that.

Well,thank you for the information.MEW is a wallet where you can trade your crypto coins.This can help you do the transections easily.And whenever it comes about creating an online based wallet the security matters more than anything.But MEW is safe I think,because the data’s are not given to them.The data are kept in the users browser and computer.

I think this post is very useful for newbies who are starting to use and store eth or eth based tokens but at the same time we should give awareness to newbies about how to keep your mew wallet safe;
1) always check that you are using the original link.
2) Never upload your private key at some low trust place online.
3) Never share your password with anyone.

Always have to keep your private key and keep a hard copy of it. It should be kept in different locations so that you can use it according to your needs. And different types of wallets can be used. Be careful to keep your investment safe.

I think MyEtherwallet can be the safest option if we can make our local computer secure. Because the data is stored in the local computer so the most important thing is it's security.

Myetherwallet is the most attractive and widely used ethereum wallet so far. Whoever want to use the ethreum and ERC20 tokens at the same side. I will suggest this MEW wallet is the much useful wallet for the people.

I love to use of sharing the MEW wallet address to receive the tokens in the all bounty earnings buddy.

Thanks for the information, though a lot of newbies are scared of Mew having heard so many stories of hack. I personally feel if one would be a custodian of his password as well with the private key to login will make Mew safer.
