🌐 Dear Qitmeer Network community members,

Recently, we have noticed that community users have encountered a series of issues while using the KAHF wallet. Ensuring the safety of your assets is our top priority, and thus, we have actively attempted to reach out to the KAHF wallet team.

Unfortunately, we have not received a response from the KAHF team at the moment. In this situation, we believe that transparently sharing information with you is crucial so that you can understand the current situation and choose better ways to trade and use blockchain applications.

However, it should be clarified that the nature of blockchain means that some applications might not have proactively contacted us, leading to communication gaps.

Given this scenario, before using any blockchain application, please make sure to proactively contact relevant teams for thorough understanding and investigation. In the blockchain realm, everyone is responsible for their asset security.

Here are potential issues and corresponding solutions

🔺Bridge

Potential issue:According to community feedback, there are some instabilities with the cross-chain bridge in the KAHF wallet, including slow transaction confirmations or even transactions not confirming for an extended period.

Due to your asset’s importance, until the KAHF team provides a solution, we recommend using the cross-chain bridge function within this wallet with caution.

Stay tuned for official announcements for more information: https://twitter.com/QitmeerNetwork/status/1692398657247813699

Solution:We are actively collaborating with multiple mature cross-chain bridge teams to ensure stable and reliable cross-chain services, allowing your assets to be securely transferred across chains. Please watch for official announcements for specific progress updates.

🔺Swap

Potential issue:The Swap functionality within the KAHF wallet is currently operational without any identified risks.

However, due to the absence of a well-established user feedback channel by the KAHF team and their limited ability to promptly address product-related issues, we are unable to accurately predict potential future outcomes. In light of this situation, we recommend prioritizing the use of alternative channels for conducting MEER transactions.

Solution:In addition to the internal Swap feature of the KAHF wallet, we have introduced MEER trading channels on multiple platforms, including MEXC, LBANK, JUBI, boundlesspay, among others, thereby affording you a broader array of choices.

When engaging in MEER transactions, we strongly advise prioritizing the usage of these platforms, which offer a more stable and efficient trading experience. Moreover, we are actively engaged in collaborations with various other Swap teams, with the aim of diversifying the spectrum of transaction options.

🔺Asset Security

Current status:As of now, we have not identified any risks related to asset security within the KAHF wallet. Assets stored within the wallet are secured through a decentralized network. As long as you prudently safeguard your private key or keywords, your assets will be effectively protected.

Potential issue:It’s worth noting that there have been isolated cases in the community involving impersonation of Qitmeer Network official personnel sending fake TokenPocket wallet download links, leading to asset theft when using these counterfeit wallets.

We remind all users that official personnel will not initiate contact in any way, so please do not trust any messages from unfamiliar links to avoid falling victim to scams.

Solution:Apart from the KAHF wallet, you can also consider using wallets like Metamask, TokenPocket, etc., for transfers and transactions. These wallets have collaborated with Qitmeer Network to provide convenient and secure operational experiences.

Additionally, we have provided new RPC nodes for the QNG network. For detailed information, please seehttps://qitmeer.medium.com/this-section-describes-how-to-get-a-new-rpc-node-on-the-qng-network-online-and-perform-user-defined-3eee3f41d712

Plugin Wallet Development:Many enthusiastic developers have emerged in the community and are planning to develop web plugin wallets for the Qitmeer network. This will further enrich wallet choices and provide users with a more diverse blockchain wallet experience.

We will always pay attention to wallet development to ensure that you can easily manage and trade digital assets on the network while ensuring asset security and transaction convenience.

🔺Blockchain Explorer

Current Status:The meerscan.io blockchain explorer, developed and maintained by the KAHF wallet team, is experiencing display issues.

While immediate repair is challenging due to our inability to establish contact with them, we have identified a solution and are actively addressing the matter.

Solution:We are in the process of constructing a completely new blockchain explorer to offer you a more convenient and reliable blockchain data querying service.

Progress on the new browser is proceeding well; however, to ensure accurate data synchronization and stability, some time is required before its formal launch.

Lastly, although the KAHF wallet team has yet to respond to our messages, it is important to note that overall wallet functionality remains intact. While no risks have been identified at present, predicting future circumstances is uncertain.

Naturally, once the KAHF wallet resumes operations, we will promptly notify you, with hopes they will continue to provide you with quality service. We strongly recommend that you responsibly safeguard your private keys and independently assess the risks associated with various on-chain ecosystem applications, exercising caution when engaging with them.

As a community-driven public blockchain, Qitmeer Network is committed to constructing a prosperous and decentralized high-performance blockchain ecosystem through open collaboration, privacy protection, and ecological co-development.

We will continue to maintain close communication with you to ensure the security of your assets and experiences within the Qitmeer Network ecosystem. Hence, the development of the on-chain ecosystem requires the collective oversight and contribution of our community users.
