Also Flare Confused

[dlep]

Hello all, a confused newbie here not sure how to find the answers i'm looking for.  I was able to claim my spark tokens through the xrp toolkit but i received a significantly smaller amount than I thought. The flare tool says I only had 377 XRP at the time of the snapshot but when I look through my coinbase history I don't see that amount at all, only figures way higher.  Ive read that some of the spark drops take place over time but i'm worried I didn't get them all and will end up missing out on a bunch if I don't figure this out before Friday? Any advice is appreciated.

The claim is only for your own wallets (XUMM, Ledger, etc.). If you had XRP in then on December 12 you have to claim them so Flare knows you want to receive the airdrop.

If you had XRP on a participating exchange like Coinbase, you will receive your airdrop for those XRP through Coinbase.

Oh wow so I don't need to do anything by the 11th to claim the Spark tokens off of coinbase?

 

Thank you so much for responding brianwalden....I don't know how to tag your response.

Right, if it was on Coinbase for the snapshot, Coinbase will handle it. I'm sure they will send out information when it gets closer. They're probably as much in the dark about the exact timing as we are.

So in Coinbase how do we claim the flare drop? I had 19K in XRP on Dec 12 in Coinbase and did nothing but today when I go in, I don’t see where to find the flare drop

[brianwalden]

You don't need to do anything. Coinbase will give you the FLR when Flare launches.

So even though the flare airdrop was 6/12/2021, I won’t see it in my Coinbase until a later date? I’m a crypto-virgin

The airdrop hasn't happened yet. The 12th June was only the deadline for claiming. The airdrop date is still unknown.
