[$XVG] VERGE [POW][MultiAlgo][TOR/i2P][no premine/ico!]

[Dogedarkdev]

Hey there,

I'd like to ask, how i can store my verges safe offline apart from the paper wallet. Is there a way to store them on a hardware device?

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Phanti

paper wallet is probably the safest option for any crypto. we are working on a hardware wallet, and will be adding it to our roadmap within the next 2 weeks

speaking of, we are going to be taking down our clearnet web wallet, because we prefer users own their coins, instead of leaving them on the site.

we will leave the tor and i2p web wallets up however.

we'll wait until the end of july to take the clearnet site down.

That was a good news for the supporters of verge .Project were being accomplish and this 2017 is a big good start for verge to rise .
I can't wait for that hardwallet . I though paper wallet isn't safe .So i use exhange wallets for my xvg.

Nope, exchange wallets not safe as you think, also all online wallets!

Paper wallet with "BIP38 passphrase" is the safest option for verge (Right now)

Why exchange wallets not safe?!
1. exchanges can't stop getting hacked
2. may goes out of business (Suddenly)!

exchange wallets for trading only, So (For verge) paper wallet is the best option, then electrum wallet then core wallet, then coinomi wallet
*Paper wallet for long-term

i agree. i think paper wallet is safest for long term storage (created offline), and then electrum/core wallet.

monero and aeon do not provide user ip anonymity.

pivx does not either.

shadowcash sort of did, but that project was abandoned.

To clarify

So Monero and Aeon are good for ledger privacy, and no wallet balance reveal, but you would still need to hide your IP?

Pivx has ledger privacy/obfuscation only through using CoinJoin, but you still need to hide your IP. Right? Not sure about wallet balance reveal.

And Verge has IP privacy (although you should still hide it), but ledger transparency and wallet balance reveal. Right?

you dont need to hide it with us. our resources do that. some of our resources are located on i2p and tor, like our electrum wallets/servers, web wallets, our new android wallet, etc. but ledger transparency, yes.

mainstream adoption cant occur without ledger transparency. plus, with ledger transparency, people can see that nothing is shady going on with distribution, etc, and retailers can easily look up and verify transactions from customers.

we're making real privacy easy, unlike our competition.

Hello, I've brought this out once.
The prohashing block explorer does not reflect the actual balance.
The balance I have at DRQzMiThNaSsUEok8Nos8gKDKuQGyBCkTu is not reflected by the block explorer. The current balance I can see through the web wallet is 4.88..., while the balance indicated at prohashing is 0. The transactions listed by prohashing are not real.
Can aomeone address this? I guess this is something important.
If this is some geek stuff, please explain. It makes no sense to me.

Did anyone notify Crytopia support yet about the logo?

Article about Verge on steemit! Nothing new but pretty positive.

Verge -  the best coin of 2017!!!!
Listing on Poloniex is possible this summer?

Can we retire the rest of the clearnet resources, Dev? Even if one user uses obfuscation there's no way to know if the wallet he's sending to is also using obfuscation. It would seem the most secure bet is to remove this option for all users.

that's the plan. to phase out all clearnet resources over the next quarter =]

The Crypto Syndicate has chosen XVG as a coin to move on. Large stores of XVG have been accumulated.

Thank you dev for creating and supporting a solid project. We look forward to future releases and success. They are crucial.

We work partially on a social basis. Help us and spread the word of XVG through all social platforms.

Hello guys,

I downloaded the Window Wallet.

But I do not see any paraphrase or password

Can someone walk me through this ?

I downloaded Verge Wallet and just unzipped and a nice beautiful wallet came up.

Do'nt I need a password for this ?

I see there is a "Change Paraphrase" and "Unlock" Wallet option in the settings Menu.

But how do i know my current paraphrase. I did not click on those options yet

you can encrypt the wallet using a password, just dont forget it, or you wont be able to use your coins until you remember. (encrypt wallet is under the first menu tab "File")

if you use the electrum wallet, it is backed up by a seed phrase.

Are you referring to the "Back Up Wallet" option under "File"

I do not see a "Encrypt" option

So... RadioCrypto milestone not happening, canceled, or what? I know it's not a huge deal, but i was curious to see what the "include in core wallets" would end up looking like.

Also i noticed in an interview that the merchandise store was supposed to only accept XVG. Did the community vote to have it also accept BTC? I thought accepting only XVG was a great idea.

It's me or the faucet isnt working?

radiocrypto is up. and it is in the core wallets on the github already, and will be in the next core release.

yes, the merch store is already being built, and will only accept xvg.
