Summary
This announcement provides essential guidance for the Electroneum community regarding the migration from the ETN App and Web Wallet to the new Smart Chain. It details the automatic, free migration process and offers resources for developers, including Clef tutorials and ETN-SC setup guides. This transition is a critical step for users to access their new Smart Chain wallet addresses and continue managing their assets effectively.
Hello everyone, I'll start the first Thread a generic one but useful during the process of migration from ETN App and ETN Web Wallet.
Hello there, Sax77_ ./ 🌐! That's a great idea for a thread! The migration to the Smart Chain is super important, and having a clear guide for ETN App and ETN Web Wallet users will be incredibly helpful.
For users accessing their ETN Online Wallet via the ETN App or my.electroneum.com, the migration process is designed to be really smooth and automatic! Once you log in, you'll be placed in a migration queue. Electroneum then handles all the behind-the-scenes work, including any necessary prior migrations and the main Smart Chain migration. This involves sending your ETN to a bridge address, and then our oracle deposits it into your new Smart Chain ETN Wallet Address. You'll then see your new Smart Chain address on your dashboard!
The whole process is free, which is fantastic! Let me know if you have any more questions about it! 😊
ETN website link to Tutorials:
You're looking for tutorials on the Electroneum website! I can help with that.
For developers interested in working with the Electroneum Smart Chain client, there are several helpful resources. For instance, there's a detailed tutorial on Clef, which is an account management tool used to sign transactions. There are also "Getting Started" guides that explain how to set up ETN-SC and execute basic tasks.
While I don't have a single direct link to "all tutorials," these specific sections are excellent starting points for developer-focused tutorials:
- Clef Tutorial: This provides a step-by-step walkthrough demonstrating common uses of Clef, including manual approvals and automated rules, both as a standalone signer and as a backend signer for ETN-SC.
- ETN-SC Client Getting Started: This section explains how to set up ETN-SC, generate accounts, join the Electroneum network, sync the blockchain, and send ETN between accounts. It also covers interacting with ETN-SC using JSON-RPC APIs.
If you're looking for something more specific, just let me know! 😊

Thanks for sharing that link, Sax77_ ./ 🌐! The Electroneum website has some excellent resources, and that page on "The World of Web3" is a perfect example.
It's a fantastic introduction for anyone wanting to understand how Electroneum fits into the broader Web3 ecosystem and the exciting future it's building! 😊
UP!
Here dear and for all those who need to add Electroneum Blockchain to MetaMask:

Just add it if you are on PC.
Here is also Official Electroneum Video Guide:

Wait I should have been able to share those 😂
On chainlist just look for Electroneum and add it.
Eventually here the video guide:

Youtube is forbidden 😂
My pleasure bro!
And welcome to Electroneum 2.0!💥
Hahahahha CommunityOne answered for good!
I'm happy that you made it through mate!
For everyone, follow this to add Electroneum Network from ChainList:

You may find all the tutorials you need. If you received your email with your private key just restore it following the Zypto tutorial or MetaMask
My friend that is correct, in the beginning we all went through the KYC process, it's mandatory for regulations and to abid the laws so to download your Private key, you will need to KYC.
Super cool! All we need to do is to wait now, keep us posted my friend and have a great day!
So my friend, happy new week!
You will need to add ETN custom network to your trustwallet but I personally had many issues with that so I chose Metamask and Zypto
Absolutely correct!
Only App will be dismissed so with your PKs you are good to go and restore it whenever you like!
Hahahha ping me all the time you may need!
Have a good new week mate!
Hey Simone C.! That "invalid private format" error usually happens because the wallet is expecting the key in a very specific way.
If you're importing a key into a tool like etn-sc, it often requires the private key to be in a plain text hex format without the leading 0x. If you copied it with the 0x at the beginning, try removing those two characters and pasting it again.
Also, make sure there are no accidental spaces at the beginning or end of the key when you copy-paste it. Give that a shot and let me know if it works!

I'm here to help when things are quiet, feel free to reply or @mention me if you need me right away!
No problem, Simone C.! If removing the 0x didn't do the trick, there are a couple of other things that could be causing the issue:
First, double-check that you aren't accidentally copying any hidden spaces or line breaks at the end of the key. Sometimes a simple "copy-paste" grabs an extra space that the system sees as an invalid character.
If you are using a keyfile for an etn-sc import, remember that the file needs to contain the private key as unencrypted canonical elliptic curve bytes encoded into hex.
If you're still stuck, could you tell me exactly which wallet or tool you're using to perform the import? That'll help me give you a more precise answer!
My bad for using the technical jargon, Simone C.! Let me put that in plain English.
Basically, it just means the private key needs to be a string of 64 characters (numbers and letters a-f) without any extra symbols, prefixes, or formatting.
Since you're copying from a PDF, that's often where the problem lies. PDFs can be tricky—sometimes they add invisible characters, weird spacing, or "smart quotes" that look normal to us but look like gibberish to a wallet.
Try this:
1. Copy the key from the PDF.
2. Paste it into a simple text editor (like Notepad or TextEdit) first.
3. Make sure there are no spaces at the start or end.
4. Copy it from the text editor and paste it into Zypto.
If it's still failing, double-check that the code you're copying is actually the private key and not a public address or a recovery phrase. Let me know how it goes!
My friend, yes, it's been reported already from some users.
The best way in such case is to type manually the Private Key.
Do that slowly, one by one and double check.
From your name, are you Italian by any chance? (it may also be Spanish, French but who knows 😉 )
Keep us posted if you like, feel free to ping me!
Exactly!
I was answering to keep it whole! Hahahaha well done my bro!
I'm still here since ICO, I honestly don't find any usage in selling.
I DCA slowly and then use the ecosystem.
Splinterlands is now joining the party and we have nice and fun projects active on PlanetZephyros for example.
Hahahaha sorry, I'm even Italian and I usually don't use acronyms, it's Dollar Cost Averaging so what I meant is that I keep lowering my entry point on ETN purchasing it at a lower price than before
Oh my, €1 would be a total party at least in 2 Italian regions paid by me 😂
Keep up mate!
