The worlds first Proof of Work mineable ERC20 token has started taking the Ethereum community by storm. The number of active miners is crossing 1000 and more token mining pools are popping up such as tokenminingpool.com and 0xpool.io. Here is one of the best ways to keep your tokens safe.

  1. Acquire a Ledger Nano hardware wallet, install the app, connect the device to your computer and unlock it. Use the two buttons to navigate to ‘Ethereum Wallet’

Offical Site: https://www.ledgerwallet.com

2. Open the Ledger Wallet app and it will detect the Ledger Nano. The app will display a wallet with an Ethereum account. Save the Public Address in an easily accessible area.

3. Now that you have the Public Address for the Ethereum Account you can transfer in some Ether and any RC20 tokens. Transfer 0xBitcoin using Parity or using the official web wallet.

4. To use the web wallet, type the number of tokens to transfer in the ‘Amount’ field and type the Public Address of the Ledger Nano in the ‘Recipient Address’ field. When you click Transfer, your web3 provider app (metamask, cipher, parity, etc…) will ask you to sign the transaction. Once you do, the transaction will be broadcasted to the Ethereum network and you can use a service such as Etherscan.io to verify that it was successful.

Congratulations! Now your tokens are safely stored in your Ledger Nano. The Ledger wallets allow you to withdraw tokens using myetherwallet and many expect them to have native token services one day very soon.
