Hello dear crypto friends,
It has been a couple years since I last posted on this forum and I am sorry for that to begin with. Recently I started to become very active in the crypto space again and there is this one thing I just don't get, which should probably be very easy: getting HBAR (Hedera Hash) from Kucoin to MyHbarWallet. As we have seen the whole debacle unfold with Luna and Celsius, I am a believer of self-custody. I am now and have been ever since I bought my first crypto many years ago. Anyway, long story short: I have a MyHbarWallet, I have HashPack, I have Hedera on my ledger, but for some reason when I type in either the public key OR 0.0.0xxxxxx account ID as withdrawal address at Kucoin it says: adress format invalid. The only thing I can think of that I possibly did wrong or didnt do yet, is activate my MyHbarWallet. Now the thing is, how can I activate it without funds in it when I cannot send funds to it to activate it? It seems really weird and I have been trying to get this work for quite some time now. I would highly appreciate it if someone maybe knows what I did wrong or what I should do in order to move my HBAR from Kucoin straight into MyHbarWallet via my Ledger so that I am in control over my coins rather than Kucoin. It is not that I don't trust Kucoin I just like to be in control of my own coins, especially as we aren't talking a few pennies. Anyway, that was it. Will start lurking around now a bit and see all the new cool stuff y'all discussing
