In our efforts to make Bitcore as easily accessible as possible for everyone, we created several step-by-step guides.

  1. Advanced coin control
  2. Airdrop registration (bitcore core/bitcore-qt)
  3. BTX claiming for BTC holders via Trezor or Ledger
  4. Wallet.dat and private key backups
  5. Sign a message with Coinomi (for the airdrop)

 

German:

  1. Coin Control
  2. Airdrop registration
  3. Private Keys und Wallet Backups

 

Also have a look at our youtube channel where we post guides and tutorials on a regular basis.

    I did not receive my airdrop, why? I registered and have over the amount needed for the Airdrop. I moved it from Cryptopia to my Bitcore wallet like instructed and registered my address in the airdrop registration website, but looked and still have the same amount i put in there.
    1) my address is on you website for the airdrop
    2)does my computer need to be on and the wallet open for the airdrop to happen?
    3) how do i claim my airdrop if I was on the snapshot?
    please advise

    Hi sir. I would just like to confirm of how many coins will I be recieving during the airdrop. Coz I have been holding a no. Of btx but still recieves around 0.11-0.14btx. How is the computation sir? Is it a percent of the 1btx or a percent of the whole holding. Thank you

      You will receive +6% on the balance you have in your registered address. For more details, please check out FAQ.

        Do you have to submit your bitcore address each time or does it just do it automatically?

          You only have to register your address once. Make sure to check our coin control guides and have all your funds on your registered address.

    That might be the reason in my case too.
    But in this manual you mention, that it currently onl works with the bitcore core wallet…I registered it with my coinomi wallet and I still get the airdrop for my initial amount of coins, but not for all coins.
    The feature not to create a new address for every transaction is available in this wallet too, but it wasn´t activated yet.

      One method to make sure to receive your airdrop is to send all your coins to a registered address within your coinomi wallet.

      Sometimes the site may be offline or not working for a short period of time. It should be working fine again now.

    HI There,

    I’ve registered less then a month ago but still didn’t get my airdrop coins.

    did I’ve missed a step ?

    Note : My BiteCore Core, didn’t finished downloading the Blockchain.

    I am having problems receiving Air Drops. I have down loaded the wallet, followed all instructions by “enabling coin control features”, checking “custom change address” then inputting my Air Drop address!

    Am I missing something?

    Do I need to keep my wallet open on Mondays?

    Please help, anyone!
