Not all Ether wallets are compatible with the Earndrop campaigns. To participate in any Ethereum ERC20 Earndrop campaign, a compatible wallet is a must. Here is why you need a compatible wallet, which wallets are compatible and how you set them up.

The Earndrop platform will hopefully help you learn more about cryptocurrency and ICOs. We find it important to provide every person the chance to participant and learn about blockchain and cryptocurrency, without necessarily having to invest into it. Although you can earn cryptocurrency on the Earndrop platform, it’s still required to make your own Ethereum wallet that supports ERC20 tokens. In this post we will help you to create one, and to secure it.

Create your compatible Ethereum wallet.

Ethereum wallets that are compatible with ERC20 tokens are:

MyEtherWallet (no download needed) *** Recommended***

MetaMask (Firefox and Chrome browser addon)

Mist (Desktop)

Parity (Desktop)

imToken (iPhone & Android)

Trust (iPhone & Android)

Cipher (iPhone & Android)

Coinomi (iPhone & Android)

Do not use: Any exchange wallet, Jaxx wallet or the Exodus wallet for ERC20 tokens.

How do I add the tokens I earned on Earndrop to my wallet?

Tokens will be automatically distributed after a campaign finished on Earndrop. We will send out updates by email for this, so you know when to expect these tokens to be added to your wallet.

You can always see if tokens have been added to your wallet, by searching for your address on https://etherscan.io — at the right side under ‘Misc’ at ‘Token Balances’.

Before you will see your tokens in Metamask, it is necessary to add a new custom token. This is very easy and our next Medium post will explain this to you in detail.

**Notice: Never give your private keys to anyone, only submit your public wallet addresses. Admins on Telegram will never contact you for special bonuses, or ask you for your keys and or money.

Secure yourself from malicious threats

Unfortunately, the awesome technology of blockchain and market of cryptocurrencies brings malicious threats with it. Think of imposters, phishing websites, keyloggers, etc.

As a beginner it is very important to immediately start understanding the importance of secure browsing. Metacert is a great service that is now also starting their own ‘MetaCert Protocol’ on the blockchain, being the largest anti-fraud and trust database is heading to the blockchain (https://metacertprotocol.com/).
