Guide for Myetherwallet



Part 1 : Create New Account


If you have an existing Ethereum account you can use via MyEtherWallet, please skip this section and jump ahead to the next section, “Using Existing Account.”



Go to the MyEtherWallet website at https://www.myetherwallet.com. Make sure that you are on a computer you trust and that you access the website via an HTTPS address. If you’re using Chrome, you should see a green lock notification in the address bar:


Step 2: Go to the “New Wallet” Tab

Step 3: Provide a Strong Password

Provide a password that will be used to access your wallet:

1.     Create a strong password, using upper and lower-case letters, and also numbers and symbols (e.g., “@”, “^”, etc.).

2.     Do not lose this password. Losing this password is equivalent to losing all of the ETH and any Tokens stored in your account.

Click on the “Create New Wallet” button.

Step 4: Save Your Keystore File


Follow the instructions to save your keystore file. This file contains your private and public keys and is required every time you want to access your account.



Please note that you won’t be able to access your account without this file and the password from the previous step. Losing either one of them is equivalent to losing all of the ETH and any Tokens stored in your account.


Step 5 (optional): Backup Your Private Key

If you would like to make this account accessible by other Ethereum wallets, you can export and backup your private key.

It is important to remember that you should never share your private keys with anyone else. If your wallet address (i.e., your public key) is the equivalent of your bank account number, then your private wallet key is your PIN. If anyone obtains your private key, they will have access to all of your funds.


Step 6: Unlock Your Wallet to View the Public Address

Follow the instructions to unlock your wallet and get your public address:

Select the “Keystore File (UTC / JSON)” and the keystore file you’ve downloaded in the previous step:
Input your passphrase and click on the “Unlock” button to unlock it:

Step 7: Save Your Public Address

At this stage, you should now be able to see your Ethereum public address under the “Your Address” label.

You will need to provide this public address during your registration for the token sale event. Do not lose your password and the keystore file, as you will need to use them in the token sale event.



Part 2: Using Existing Account



Go to the MyEtherWallet website at https://www.myetherwallet.com. Make sure that you are on a computer you trust and that you access the website via an HTTPS address. If you’re using Chrome, you should see a green lock notification in the address bar:


Step 2: Go to the “View Wallet Info” Tab


Step 3: Unlock Your Wallet to View the Public Address

Follow the instructions to unlock your wallet and get your public address:

Select the “Keystore File (UTC / JSON)” and the keystore file from earlier:

Input your passphrase and click on the “Unlock” button to unlock it:


Step 4: Save Your Public Address

At this stage, you should now be able to see your Ethereum public address under the “Your Address” label.


You will need to provide this public address during your registration for the token sale event. Do not lose your password and the keystore file, as you will need to use them in the token sale event.


Part 3 : Sending ETH to the

Token Sale Address and 

Buying Tokens during ICO



Make sure that you have enough ETH in your wallet to cover your participation as well as a small transaction fee on the Ethereum blockchain, known as “gas”.

Step 1: Go to https://www.myetherwallet.com/

Go to the MyEtherWallet website at https://www.myetherwallet.com. Make sure that you are on a computer you trust and that you access the website via an HTTPS address. If you’re using Chrome, you should see a green lock notification in the address bar:





Step 2: Go to the “Send Ether & Tokens” Tab

Choose how you would like to access your wallet. For instance, if you choose to access using your keystore file, select the wallet file as indicated below.



Upload your Keystore file then insert your password and click “Unlock” to proceed.



Step 3: Send ETH to the Token Sale Address

You will then be asked to fill the “Send Transaction” form.

       In the “To Address” field, paste the sale address copied in the last step.

       In the “Amount to Send” field, fill in the amount of ETH you wish to use to buy tokens

       In the “Gas Limit” field, change the minimum amount to 200,000 gas. This will ensure that your transaction is processed.
       Click on “Generate Transaction.”


A popup will appear. Click “Send Transaction.” MyEtherWallet will ask you to confirm the transaction.

If the data is correct and you wish to proceed, click “Yes, I am sure! Make transaction.” DO NOT click on this button more than once.


Congratulations! You have now purchased the amount of Token that corresponds to the amount of ETH you sent.

After sending the request, you should get a link to your transaction (powered by the etherscan.io web service):


Step 4 (optional): Confirm Your ETH Were Sent

Open your transaction in etherscan.io by clicking on the “Verify Transaction.”

You should first see the transaction as pending:


After a couple of moments (depending on the performance of the Ethereum network), you’ll see the transaction as submitted:



And a couple of moments later you will see a confirmation:
