At the beginning of May, we announced our community the migration of ourDagcoin on to the new and enhanced DAG-chain that is tailor-made especially for one purpose – becoming a globally used common currency. This is one** major step towards our main focus  – usability. With this new chain our present and future merchants will have the best solutions for accepting payment**s for their products and services.

Why?
Very often we get asked and there are even different rumors about the reason of this change. Let us explain the background.

So far we were an asset on Byteball’s platform. The development decisions of that platform and what can be implemented in the wallets is very muchcontrolled by the founder of Byteball.

Our aim is to bring cryptocurrency to everybody by making using the money as simple as possible. The strong vision and ambition of Dagcoin is unique and to be able to fulfill this we wanted to make the technical side more suitable for our community. With all the platforms we are developing (DagPay,** Merchant Finder,DagWallet, Webwallet, DagCommunity and many more to come) we need to beable to sync with the developments of the core technology very often. Being themain developer of the core technology gives the freedom to create and updateadditional products/features much faster and to create solutio**ns others do not have yet!

And this is the reason why we have come out now with our own chain – thisgives us the freedom to develop custom solutions benefitting our community –you – the most!

The fees for transactions will not become high with the rise in the coin price as it is happening with all other cryptocurrencies, there are no issues with funding client and confirmation times for transactions are much faster. The work that has started on DagWallet takes it to the ultimate top of digital wallets. These are just some of the benefits of being on our own chain to begin with.

Now… What is the process for exchanging my old coins to new coins?
We wanted to make this process as clear to our members as possible. Part of this is the understanding, that there is OLD wallet with old coins and there is NEW wallet with new coins, so we made this process partly manual for you – you must send the old coins to us, and then we send the new coins to you.

First thing that is extremely important for every cryptocurrency wallet – have you made the Backup?


Now when the backup is made, you need to download the new wallet. You can find the new wallets here: https://dagcoin.org/wallet/
And again – make the backup for this wallet as well!

Now you have two wallets in your device – Dagcoin (which is the old wallet) andDagWallet (which is the new wallet)

Next step is to go to https://migration.dagcoin.org where you can send your old dagcoins to the company and leave your new wallet’s address to receive thenew coins into the new wallet.



It is mandatory to leave your e-mail address just in case we would need to contact you regarding the migration, old wallet’s address and also new wallet’s address.

Once you have sent the old dagcoins, allow us to have up to 7 days to send thenew coins on the new chain. Most probably this will happen within a few days, but since there is a lot of people who are going through this migration process then we want you to consider a little bit longer time period.

It is important not to erase the old wallet from your device before the new coins are safely in the new wallet.

Once the new dags are in your DagWallet, do not use the old wallet any longeras the whole community is moving to the new chain and it is wise to erase theold wallet once the migration is completed.

Let’s repeat this step-by-step:
Back up your old Dagcoin wallet

Download the new DagWallet

Back up your new DagWallet

Go to migration.dagcoin.org
Fill in your old address and also new address

Send the old coins to the Migration Assistant

Wait for the new coins to arrive in 7 days

Erase your old wallet

How do I access my WebWallet?
Your old Webwallet is accessible from https://wallet.dagcoin.org/old. New Webwallet is on the old domain, https://wallet.dagcoin.org. Process to change the coins is same as for regular wallets, through Migration Assistant.

As a merchant do I need to do something with my DagPay or Merchant Finder accounts?
In DagPay you just need to update your wallet address, everything else works perfectly. No changes are needed to be made in Merchant Finder. Important is to make sure you have the new DagWallet to be able to accept coin payments from customers.

What can I do with the old coins in the future?
Absolutely nothing. You should change the old coins for the new coins, which you can start using with the merchants, do payments and make transfers. Also, there are lots of financial opportunities on the way to be utilized with the new coins.

Where can we buy/sell Dagcoins – Swipex, Paygety and the exchange of DagUniversity
The easiest way to buy Dagcoins is through their official marketing arm website DagUniversity, where we can buy Dagcoins at a cheaper price especially for bulk amounts.
Buy here https://daguniversity.com/en

Paygety and the exchange of DagUniversity will start exchanging the new dagson Monday 14th of May. SwipeX will add new dags on Monday 21st of May.
