Title: How to store Alt Coins?
Post by: alison03 on March 03, 2014, 08:32:23 AM
Fairly new to this whole thing. I've kind of figured out that I want to cold store a couple of bitcoins after the whole Mt. Gox fiasco.

I recently bought some LTC and PPC on btc-e as well, mostly to try to buy low/sell high to get more BTC, but thought about putting some away as well. Is that even possible? Does it go in the same "place" as the bitcoins? I'm trying to figure out how this whole process works, so any info would be great. Thank you so much!

A wallet is part of the whole block chain network (not the site) so an offline wallet is as safe as the whole network

An offline QT is a good place to store Litecoin. :)

for hodling = cold storage wallet(don't forget to backup your private key)
for trading = exchanges, but see if it is reliable before put funds
