Registering EOS by end of May
Yes the Pinball Wizard is still alive. Haven't posted in a while but I'm back. For all of you EOS holders I'm sure you are aware by now that your coins have to be registered by the end of May. There's still a lot of confusion out there as to how to do this. The link below is probably the best video I have seen on this topic. Check it out and post any questions for others who may have an answer for you. One question I have heard is when using MEW and registering the wallet is there any down side to using a Trezor or Ledger and will you at some point need the private key to the MEW wallet. I feel it is always better to use a hardware wallet. All opinions welcome.
Thanks for adding this video!
Dumb question hopefully but how do we know that the EOS contract is not giving EOS access to our ETH in the wallet? :-)
Can you explain what will happen when the ico ends in June? Will EOS airdrop Tokens to the ETH wallet? Or will this become our access key to join a new blockchain over on EOS later?
Cheers!

HI: I'm not an expert but it is my under standing that the old tokens will be converted to new ones based on what EOS sees in you wallet which will be visible by using your MEW public key. Your MEW wallet must be registered so EOS knows who has the old tokens. When the EOS blockchain is launched you will access your new tokens with your EOS public address and EOS private key on their newly created block chain. If I'm wrong someone please correct me. Thanks.
Awesome thanks!
Do you think its important to create a new wallet just for the EOS registration? Or would it be ok to use the same wallet that holds your ETH and other ERC20 tokens?
It is my understanding that we have to wait till the launch. EOS will no longer be an ERC20 token. They are starting a completely new block chain that will actually compete with Ethereum.
Hmmm I'm getting an error when I try to send the "write" transaction:
<<Invalid Status 6a80. Check to make sure contract data is on>>
Any thoughts? Cant seem to get past this part.

Ok I figured it out. The contract data is a setting on the ledger wallet that needed to be turned on.
On to the next step!
Success. I was able to confirm that the MEW wallet is registered.
Thanks for your video!
Glad to help.
