The @peerplays blockchain is up and running. Witnesses have been chosen and are producing blocks. It's time to claim your tokens, vote for witnesses and get ready to participate in the newest member of the Graphene Blockchain crew.

Here is an illustrative look at how to download the PeerPlays Core Wallet and claim your tokens. The following tutorial is for those that participated in the Crowdfund. If you participated via BTS, please use the official Peerplays documentation.

First you need to download the Core Wallet software from this link. After downloading, run the .exe/.dmg file and start the application. You'll be greeted by this screen.

Select the sign-up button (shown by the red arrow). Start by choosing a username and carefully storing and backing up your password. PeerPlays will not be able to reset your password in the case of you losing it.

Once you've logged in, click on the settings button, shown by the red arrow below.

Now select the Balance Claims tab shown in the following picture.

You'll now need to locate the Private Key given to you when you purchased your PPY tokens. Read below to find your specific directions.

Purchases made before April 24

Your Private Redemption Key is the bitcoin private key that corresponds to the bitcoin address
from which you sent your bitcoin to the Peerplays Crowdfund. If you donated from one of the
recommended wallets shown on the crowdfund webpage, instructions for how to find this
Private Redemption Key are located in the section 5 of this document.

Purchases made between April 24 and May 14

During the Crowdfund you were required to download a unique Redemption Key pair (Private
and Public Redemption keys), which was located inside a file called keypair.txt.

Find the keypair.txt​ file on your hard drive, or wherever you have saved it. Open the file and
locate the Private Key. This private key is the Private Redemption Key you will need in order to
complete Step 3.5​ as outlined above. You can simply copy and paste this Private Redemption
Key into “Settings/Balance Claims” in your Peerplays core wallet to claim your PPY tokens.

Once you've entered your Private Key, click lookup balances and then claim the amount that is shown. You're all set!

Now go vote for witnesses like @jesta @bacchist @pfunk @joseph @tyler-fletcher @theprophet0 @ausbitbank @billbutler @taconator @bhuz @anyx and others!

Let me know if you have any questions or if something is unclear.
