Now you should be here: https://eos.io/information and it's getting complicated for the new people.
Although they suggest to use Chrome + Metamask wallet I think it will be much easier to just use https://myetherwallet.com/ which is listed as an alternative:
Remember that you can't invest directly from you account exchange. You will lose your ETH and not receive any EOS!

Thanks for following me.
There is no price because they have no max cap for the sale. So the price will be determined by the amount raised / by the number of tokens.

I do not think that's correct. Here is the reply from Andrei in telegram
"Andrei Nadejde, [Jun 25, 2017, 1:02 PM]:
Eos will be a new blockchain when the sale is over. The first block in that chain will have a eos distribution that is equal to the snapshot of the eth tokens at the end of the sale
If you want to access the eos on the new blockchain you will need a key on the new blockchain
You use the register to declare what key you will be using on the new blockchain"

because US banks wanna try to get this regulated it or frightening newcomers and interested parties. they must be lobbying so we one does not go walking around with 10k of crypto. Don't see no stock brokers walking with milllions in stocks being stopped and searched on their phone. Obviously they gonna make it hard to have ICOs here in US.

What about the generation of EOS keys? I don't mean the private keys of your ETH address but the EOS keys which seem to be something different as described in this article:

It seems like you're saying ETH is needed to purchase EOS tokens. Is this correct? If so, do you know why. I read your earlier post distinguishing the two and it looked like it was two separate operations.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes you need ETH because EOS is build on top of the Ethereum blockchain as ERC20 token.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
You might want to update/correct this ; ) The ERC20 on Ethereum is just used to collect money. Later when EOS is developed all will move over to the new platform.
