I don't know about you guys and gals, but I had registered EOS tokens, then my Exodus wallet was being targeted by a hacker, so I was forced to move them back to an exchange.
Then I was worried about the exchange going down, so I researched some paper wallet and hardware wallet options, but then My Ether Wallet and MyCrypto broke up, so then I was worried about that.
Short story long, all of this bullshit got me to the point where I just sold off most of my EOS, and then decided to just buy them back after June 1 2018 instead, fully registered to boot, just to be on the safe side.
Now I come to find out, that Everipedia is about to do their air-drop at the end of this month, and my question is... why the fuck are you doing this now?
I have a bad feeling about this, and worry that people are going to expose their keys while trying to claim these free tokens, because the whole registration thing is a shit-show already.
What say you guys and gals, am I over thinking this a bit?
What do you plan on doing, and will you be claiming your Everipedia tokens at the end of the month, and are you worried at all about the redemption process?
What was the problem with Ledger Nano S again ?

Nothing, but now that My Ether Wallet split into MyCrypto, it's hard to feel safe, knowing that there is in-fighting between them, so transferring to the device just feels iffy.

I assume Ledger Nano S has nothing to do with My Ether Wallet and MyCrypto right ?
Never used it. But its a hardware wallet and My Ether Wallet is a software wallet if I'm not wrong.

You have to use either MyCrypto or My Ether Wallet to get your ERC20 tokens on to your Ledger Nano S my friend.

OK. That makes a lot of sense to me now. I am not exposed to many tokens because Indian exchanges don't support most of them. I have to make too many hops and maintain too many accounts to have a varied crypto portfolio.

I hear ya, and yeah, all hardware wallets have to use a gateway in order to get the coins and tokens onto them.

I wish I knew about cryptos back then when I was in USA. Would have been much easier to trade.
Also would have enough time to study the whitepapers and technology.

I found stupid the EOS registration process and I think is not a good marketing tactic. If you do not do it, you have coins that will be useless...

It wouldn't be so bad if the registration process wasn't so unsafe, but now that it is, a lot of people are on the sidelines just waiting to purchase fully registered EOS tokens like me come June 1.

I just watched an interview with Dan Larimer on Ivan on Tech
I just got the feeling that I better wait on buying any EOS until after the real EOS goes live in June
I'm just not confident about going in now

I think that there are other things we could be buying, and then when EOS goes fully live, and starts selling fully registered tokens, that's when we should buy in... but why now?

Yeah, it was easy for me before, but now that Exodus can't be trusted, and the Ethereum wallet breakup happened, I just feel that it is safer to wait.

yes exactly the question is indeed why now cuz I can't see a reason to do so, well unless someone doesn't mind if it goes wrong in anyway then by all means

Yep, which is why I'm just going to wait, because it's just safer to do so.

We made some remarks yesterday that Dan Larimer may come up with a new platform to rival Steemit
Strangely enough, steemian @charles1 posted this
EOS ( Dan Larimer ) Plans Steemit alternative: A Strategic Competition

What do you think?

I think it's going to be great, but I'm sure Dan is going to have to focus on getting EOS up and running like a well oiled machine for quite sometime, so don't expect a Steemit competitor anytime soon mate.

Maybe I'm missing something, but my take from Dan Larimer's interview was that he's done his part in EOS, and from here it is up to what he called "the community"
He seems to be very active so for sure he'll come up with a new project of some sort. He speaks very highly of Steemit, I see no reason he would want to husrt this platform.

No, he definitely does not want to hurt it, but w'll just have to see what the future holds.

I have my doubt about EOS… Tokens has no rights at all.
According to their site: “The EOS Tokens do not have any rights, uses, purpose, attributes, functionalities or features, express or implied, including, without limitation, any uses, purpose, attributes, functionalities or features on the EOS Platform.

what makes the token registration unsafe? it is done by signing in to your wallet of choice (most likely MEW), and performing the actions there. in order to just send ETH from the wallet, for example, you will have the same amount of vulnerability exposure.
as for the problems with hackers and MEW/MyCrypto, those are hardly EOS-specific.

Due to the break up, we are unsure whether or not the My Ether Wallet is going to be secure in the future, and as my post states, Exodus is vulnerable, so that option is out.
