very nice post my friend @lexiconical

Read this a long time ago, and am still laughing from: "interface most closely resembling a digital Egyptian abacus." 

Thank you for this great article.

I'm not finding the name "lexiconical" on the Witness Voting list.

myetherwallet is seriously EXPLODING with airdrops as of the last 2 weeks...

So if I have been holding my EOS on Exodus, and already registered them by connecting with a MEW wallet.. does that count as holding them on both Exodus & MEW at the same time? Or do I need to just move them from Exodus completely?

Thank you so much for the heads up. I need to get mine moved from bitshares.

And what would be the value in $ of that airdrop? Like, how much per EOS?

Who shuld put Adresse?

@lexiconical thank you for your info!
can you please give me a reference for your statement here:

"This means the following locations will NOT receive air-drops

Exchanges
Exodus Wallet
In order to receive the air-drops, you will need to hold the EOS on a standard Ethereum address."

Because this is SUPER important to know for small fish like me that dream to be a whale one day :D
Thanks!

EOS sounds very promising. I must get some of it before it's main net is launched.

Oh man, the more I learn the more there is to learn. I have my EOS on Exodus, but did register it (at least, at the beginning) with MyEtherWallet.  Err, where do I stand now? I am not a techie (to put it mildly) and have avoided creating a MyEtherWallet (for non-techies- this is torture!). Should I bite the bullet or is having EOS on Exodus and registering the wallet on MyEtherWallet enough???

Dear @lexiconical, if there is a number where I put qty here, it's all good?

Or is it mandatory to claim these?

thank for sharing this informations with us

Every time I heard the word **air drop**, the breathtaking scenes from the movie Point Break always flash back in my mind. I sold all my EOS few weeks ago due to desperate financial needs. I am wondering if there will be a minimum amount of EOS tokens to be qualified for this?

My [Everipedia](https://everipedia.org/editor/introvertspeaks/) account is now alive and kicking--ready for a new beginning.

Thanks, a good reminder in itself to register EOS tokens, I should buy more, these guys are pros

What if a person has OPEN.EOS on the Bitshares DEX?

With the latest Exodus release (1.48.0), you can now easily register EOS. https://www.exodus.io/

Do we know the date yet?

good luck

This post just build my confidence more in EOS
It is good to know that eos have partner with Bitfinex to create a trustless, decentralized exchange on EOS technology:

This is pretty cool to know more about this.

Since I have just started to buy crypto with fiat this week, I keep thinking if I should be buying EOS. It seems so promising and I think that I should not miss the chance to buy a few of them and especially with these airdrops and the development that is going on, it may be rising a lot.

"Finally we could have the security of something like Bitshares without the need to use an interface most closely resembling a digital Egyptian abacus."  

What a funny comment!  It's the most bizarre thing I've seen.  I'm not even sure a hard core programmer would find it an appealing interface.  I actually think it will hold back the bitshares adoption if they don't reconsider their Frankenstein.

Cool! Free crypto! :)

I still have not registered my EOS (I may want to move them to another account, dunno yet, don't want to tie myself down). But from your post I understand that this is no obstacle to receiving this airdrop, right? I just wanted to ask to be extra-extra sure :)

I'll resteem this, I think my followers may find it interesting!

Nice post

This is wonderful news! EOS is the future in my opinion, #1 investment iv'e been recommending to my clients. It's phenomenal in every way, I'm really excited to see what happens with it in the near future!!! Thanks for posting this info, I had no idea they were doing an airdrop!!! Kudos

Question, do the EOS tokens need to be claimed in an Ether adress to be viable for the airdrop?

Right now i have my eos on my Jaxx wallet. I havent had time to figure out mew and metamask completely yet. My eos address on Jaxx is the same as the eth address. Would i be eligable for the airdrop still or is it possible to import my jaxx wallet to mew. Ive been at this for almost a year but spend all my time researching coins and icos, not learning wallets. Jaxx holds btc dash bch monero and other so would those just not be available in mew if i did import it to mew. Im so confused.

Nice post. Is there an official announcement about the airdrop?

Is Jaxx Ok?

Good knowledge about crypto currency.

Questions:

#1  this EOS-exchange  you mention, will it be up in time to exchange cryptos for Eos(finex) before the airdrop?  What ID will the exchange require, we're tired of having to forfeit email addresses or phone numbers to cryptos.  isn't one of the great things about crypto that you get to be anonymous?

#2  Since Larimer founded Steem/Steemit, you'd think one would have an EASY way to exchange steem for Eos.  This seems obvious, even if Larimer HATES Steem now, creating an easy way for steemians to trade OUT of steem and INTO Eos is a no-brainer.  Why does everyone in crypto force you to buy/trade Ether to participate in anything?  (see Scorum-- they idenitify with related assets but won't let you use Steem to buy into their ICO).

#3  Google created a for-pay version of Wikipedia and it failed.  not sure why given they could plug it with search results.  Everipedia sounds ideal, but will it properly incentivize people to create on it?  Just mostly wondering what the editing process will be, if a POS-like system, then those with the most "money" get to re-write history.  that's kinda odd.  Or we missing something?

great post, VERY informative.  Exactly the type of stuff we like to read.  also doing a rare resteem as this stuff is so timely.
