Guide for exchange holders: Seamless Migration to the New Smart Chain

Introduction: For users who have chosen exchanges as their preferred platform for holding ETN, we have curated a detailed guide to ensure a seamless transition as we step into the new Smart Chain era.


1. 🔄 Exchanges Lead the Way: The great news is: exchanges will handle the migration to the Smart Chain on behalf of their users. There's no need for individual users to manually execute this migration.


2. ⚠️ Important Post-Hard Fork Actions: Once the hard fork is executed:

  • No More Old Chain Deposits: It's imperative that users do not attempt to deposit funds to their previous exchange addresses linked to the old blockchain.

  • Embrace the New Smart Chain Addresses: Subsequent to the fork, all deposit operations should be directed to the new exchange Smart Chain addresses. These addresses will have a distinct "0x" format. Here's an example for clarity: 0x1234Abcd5678Efgh.... Please note, this is just a demonstrative EXAMPLE and not an actual address.


3. 📢 Stay Updated: To remain informed and ensure smooth operations:

  • Follow Your Exchange's Communications: Always keep an eye on the official PR/Media channels of your chosen exchange. They'll provide crucial updates on potential downtime, migration status, and other essential information.

  • Engage Proactively: In case of doubts or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact your exchange's support or community channels. They are there to help.


4. 🛡 Safety First: While the migration process is being handled by exchanges, always remember a few safety protocols:

  • Never share your private keys or passwords.

  • Be wary of phishing attempts or suspicious communications asking for personal information or actions related to the migration.
