Imtoken wallet EOS mapping tutorial
prefaceMany coin circle friends have used imtoken wallets. This article tells you how to complete EOS one click mapping through imtoken. The current EOS is a token based on Ethereum erc-20. After the EOS master network is started, it needs to be converted into a real token on the EOS master network. Therefore, this conversion operation needs to be completed through mapping. As long as there are more EOS after mapping, it will be a valid EOS token after 6.2 is on the master network.
Not much to say, let's take you to complete the one click mapping of EOS. (some screenshots are from imtoken tutorial)
Step 1: open imtoken wallet and click Find - > candy bar
Step 2: click EOS mapping
Here you will check whether your wallet has EOS and whether it has been mapped. If you have EOS in your wallet and have not been mapped, you will be prompted to map immediately. When you click map now, the public key and private key of EOS wallet will be generated for you. Note that the private key must be backed up safely. It is best to copy it on paper (note that it is case sensitive in English). Do not take screenshots or transmit and store it through the network. Keep the private key confidential and don't let it out.
After backing up the private key, click "I have confirmed and keep it properly"
Step 3: enter the private key just backed up in the input box for secondary verification
After the input is correct, click the read precautions & mapping, and then a pop-up window will appear. You need to pay a small amount of eth as the miner's fee. Click OK to complete the mapping. After confirmation and waiting for the miner to confirm the transaction (this process takes about 10 minutes), the EOS mapping is completed.
Pending confirmation of transaction
Mapping succeeded
summary
Although most exchanges will help you do EOS mapping, it is recommended to do it yourself. The reasons are as follows: first, there are some candies dropped by air. The exchange will not give them to you. You can get them in your wallet; Second, you can exercise your voting rights (if you want EOS to develop better, you'd better use this right reasonably).
