    As described [here](https://groups.google.com/d/topic/prometheus-developers/2Prtj6ALoPA/discussion): If you have a Freenode-registered nickname and want to use it from Matrix, you can do it like this:

    1. Leave with your nick on IRC
    2. On Matrix, open a new chat (In the vector.im Web interface this is the "+" sign on the bottom left)
    3. Invite @appservice-irc:matrix.org to the new chat
    2. On Matrix, open a new chat (with vector.im this is the "+" sign on the bottom left)
    3. Invite `@appservice-irc:matrix.org` to the new chat
    4. Say `!nick <yournick>`
    5. A request for new chat with NickServ will pop up
    5. A request for new chat with `NickServ` will pop up
    6. Accept it and identify yourself with your Freenode password (`identify <password>`)

    Voila, you'll be using your Freenode-registered nick through Matrix, being able to use multiple devices simultaneously with shared history and all!

    This works for nicks that are known to matrix.org, i.e. if the nick has never joined an IRC channel that was bridged to matrix it won't work.
