yes safe of course: what is the best and safest way to store my xvg coins for long term offline ? i see there is some trouble with the xvg wallet?
there's no trouble with the wallet, it just takes a while to sync 3 years of a blockchain. i would suggest using the core wallet for the platform you have, and keeping your coins there. you can download the chain to make it sync faster, from vergecurrency.de or cryptochainer.com Are you from the verge team? If not then let someone confirm it.

May ask your short/long term target? You think could hit the same price as DGB today or XVG's circulating coins are way too much to go 0.05$/coin?

our supply is not much larger than dgb's, and this thread is for technical support and development information. not price speculation, thanks.

Hello, I want to buy some Verge and have downloaded the Verge Vallet but it is synchronizing for ages. There is something else I should do? Seen a block pack from 3June, could do something with it? http://imgur.com/Wuqhg8c

Desktop (with a backup elsewhere of the wallet.dat ofc) or paper (i dont know paper, nor its benefits/pitfalls) but it would still be 110% better than any webbased setup.

So I only need to make a backup of wallet.dat like on drop box and I will be fine? If I add more coins to the wallet, do I need to back up the wallet.dat again with the new coins added?

If I add more coins to the wallet, do I need to back up the wallet.dat again with the new coins added? saving wallet.dat in a cloud-service I would not do, if that service gets hacked or you can't access it your wallet.dat is gone. Best safe wallet.dat on an usb stick, burn on cd and keep it in a safe place, best to have 2 or more backups. You can add funds/coins to the address any time,no need to make an extra backup, all is stored in the blockchain. You can always check your balance and transaction in an online blockchain explorer, simply enter your (wallet)address there.

Perfect! Thank you. Lastly I notice there is an option to encrypt it. Do you recommend doing so?

im on the fence about encryption.
if you encrypt your wallet... its harder to use the backup ofc. (which is good/bad on its own)
there was something bad about encryption , but my memory is flaky and its been 2yrs since i heard about it...so it might be an ok choice.
(and that was on the btc wallet i was using) so might not matter at all for verge.

well the only drawback to encrypting it, is if you forget your password, you cant get your coins lol ps: i should have some nice news tonight for everyone. stay tuned. (and please dont ask what it is yet, lol)
