I heard about a CUB making waves on hive. Then I read a post from whatsup talking about claiming the CUB. Exciting times to be given free stuff in airdrops!

I tried to claim my CUB in the BSC mainnet. But... it didn't go well... I lost my lil cub...

I started out with the @leofinance post The First Ever Cross-Chain Hybrid Claimdrop | Completely Redesigned and CUB Drop is Now Live! . So I followed the steps.

I went to the leodex wallet, and sure enough I had 12 or so CUB. Alright, it's there, but it won't be there in a week so I need to transfer it to the binance sidechain.

I reached https://wleo.io/cub had to enter the NSC address. OK, I didn't have that yet. I went looking at how to get a BSC wallet and found this article from Binance themselves: How to Get Started with Binance Smart Chain (BSC).

MetaMask

Something you might already be familiar with is MetaMask. If not, no worries, we’ve got your back – we have a guide on How to Use MetaMask.

But wait, isn’t MetaMask an Ethereum wallet? It is, but actually, it’s quite easy to connect it to BSC. This way, you can use a familiar UI when interacting with BSC.

As to how to connect your MetaMask to BSC? We’ve got a detailed guide about it, so check out Connecting MetaMask to Binance Smart Chain if you’re interested.

I had read people using MetaMask to get their CUB to BSC. Ok, lets get CUB onto my MetaMask wallet. That article linked to Connecting MetaMask to Binance Smart Chain.

I added the BSC mainnet. Alright, done. According to the instructions, I was ready to send my CUB. So I did. I sent it to my existing ETH address that is now also apparently on the BSC mainnet.

But I couldn't see the CUB in the MetaMask wallet. I was getting worried a bit, but realized I need to have the token added. I found out how to do that here.

CUB was now showing as a token in my wallet, but it was still at 0.

It's the next day now, and I still see 0 CUB in my address: https://bscscan.com/address/0x367E2d7EF8F30BBdFa8461351C4E746F108269Ee

I don't know what I did wrong, but sending from https://wleo.io/cub to the above address didn't work. It seems my CUB has vanished.

Well, that sucked. At least I only lost something free and didn't pay for it hehe. It seems there is some missing information in the process of how to get your CUB onto BSC... If anyone knows where I went wrong, let me know ;) Thanks.

Good luck to you in getting your CUB to BSC. May it go better for you than it did for me :P
