How to send XAH from GateHub

How to send XAH coins from your GateHub account to your Xahau account

Summary

This article provides instructions on how to send XAH coins from your GateHub account (Hosted, Self custodial - XRPL, or Self custodial - Xahau) to your Xahau account managed by Xaman.

If you are doing this for the first time, please be aware that every Xahau account needs to be activated with at least 1 XAH coin. If your Xahau account has not been activated yet, the first XAH coin sent to a Xahau account will be used to fulfill the base reserve requirement of the Xahau network. This process is known as 'activating an account". You can read more about this here.

Instructions

1) Go to the GateHub website, Sign in, choose Send Payment.

2) Choose the Xahau network.

3) Enter your GateHub password (and 2FA code if applicable.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I hold XAH coins in my GateHub account?

Yes and no.

Yes. GateHub has several different types of accounts. If you create a Xahau account on the Xahau network using the GateHub platform, you can hold XAH coins in your account.

No. If you have an XRP Ledger account or a Hosted account with GateHub, you can not hold XAH coins. Any XAH coins you send to either of these accounts are automatically converted to GateHub's issued XAH tokens. (GH-XAH). However, you can send GH-XAH tokens from your XRPL/Hosted GateHub accounts to your self-custodial Xahau account and they will be automatically converted back to XAH coins. (GateHub exchanges them for you in the background.)

Can I activate a Xahau account with my GH-XAH tokens?

Yes and No.

Yes. If you own XAH tokens issued by GateHub (GH-XAH) in your XRP Ledger account managed by Xaman (formerly Xumm), you can send them to either of your XRPL/Hosted GateHub accounts, then send them to your self-custodial Xahau account. GateHub will automatically exchange your GH-XAH into XAH coins and send them to your Xahau account.

No. If you own XAH tokens issued by GateHub (GH-XAH) in your XRP Ledger account managed by Xaman (formerly Xumm), you can not directly activate a Xahau account with them. (ie. you can not send the GH-XAH tokens directly to the Xahau network using Xaman.) You have to send your GH-XAH to your GateHub account first, then send it to your self-custodial Xahau account from there.
