[Dogedarkdev]

Just found this project and I am really impressed!
Good luck for the future 

thanks! our new tor-only android wallet is done with beta testing, full release will be available within the next couple of days =]

Is there a roadmap?

Is there a roadmap?

it's on our website. pretty hard to miss ;]

It's nice to see that the dev is still replying to the community after 300+ pages.
good community as well. I'm just surprise this crypto is still a penny fraction...

Why the 13.4 Billion supply though? would need a huge market cap to move the price.

16.5 billion* when we're done minting.. we didn't build this currency for everyone to get rich over night. we did it with fair distribution in mind. price was never on the list of priorities for verge. the values that make a good currency are all we focus on:

public ledger, so people can see distribution and easily verify transactions. seeing distribution is important, because with alot of currencies, especially high volume ones, many of them achieved that by just a few people accumulating a majority of the supply at a low cost, then inflating the price. that really isn't a secret to most who have been in the crypto-space for the last 3-5 years. by the way, these people have almost complete control over whatever market they have a majority of the supply in. they can make the price go to 0, or double, instantly, at any time. coins without a public ledger, will never receive mainstream adoption.

user privacy, so that the public ledger could be maintained, but also a user's ip address wasn't exposed to the network, allowing his physical location at the time, and identity, be easily tracked by anyone with nefarious intent. (most coins broadcast user ip's which make users VERY EASILY tracked to their physical location, like zcash, pivx, dash, etc) also, with user privacy, we want to keep providing a wide array of privacy resources, like our i2p and tor electrum wallets, the new tor-only and i2p-only android wallets coming out, tor/i2p web based wallets, etc..

fair distribution, so that anyone can obtain coins through mining, because of our option of 5 different proof of work algorithms that are cpu and gpu friendly, and of course, the large supply created initially. this gives a fair amount of time for the large supply created so quickly, to get dispersed more easily/widely.

ease of use, so that transactions are nearly instant, and the user privacy aspect was simple and not over-complicated/intimidating for the average user. this is where we mostly focus our efforts now, as well as establishing a marketing team and campaigns, since we feel we have matured at this point and are ready to focus on widespread market adoption.

So, just to be safe guys, what's the best wallet to download for long-term holding? Don't want to wake up one day and my precious XVG is gone. Also, any links to literature where I can learn more about XVG and all it's uses, and any other related stuff. Still quite new to all of this.

It's not just post count. It's a good chunk of life invested in this...
Respect for the dev.

I would like to beta test the android wallet.

Did the web wallet not offer backups for the keys?
If yes then then it really is a bad thing.

If no and people got backups no-one would cry.
No announcement on the web wallets website is a no go
Something like this should really move through all channels

I guess that if you offer many features like verge does,
Then it is a lot of work to maintain them all.
Make sure they work and keep on working.

Does the faucet payout by now?

the android wallet is already done being beta tested, there were 10 people, and they tested 2 versions. the second was perfect =]

if you want to PM me your email address, i can notify you of future beta tests.

as for the faucet, we're just making a new wallet for it, since the last one got very bloated from being abused/overplayed so much, we'll post a message here once it's back up. (it will pay out less and be restricted to paying out once per day, per ip address)

Having the same question.

[CRonaldo7]

At least your post isn't being removed.

Oh, my post was deleted.... i just repostd because this needs to be addressed.

This is reality. This is how it is. There is no changing it now. Asking the same question over and over in different ways hoping for a different result will do nothing, because that's not how reality works either. The best thing to do is move on and start again. When you fall off the horse just get back on.

The reality is that posts about coin recovery is being deleted moderated, a few people have posted about this issue, how little notice was given before wallet removal, no ability to recover our coins, how dismissive the team is about this whole issue.... seems very very shady to me.

Why doesn't the web wallet work anymore?

you didn't own your coins, and we aren't responsible for anything we don't host. we announced 5 weeks ago we were going to end support for it, since the host wasn't ours and was donated.

this is the same reason we told someone in our telegram they can not host a wallet bot in the chat, because we can't be responsible for it if something happens and it goes offline or is hacked.

since we own the hosting to the i2p/tor web wallets will keep them online, but our plan was to eliminate all clearnet resources anyway, as we had announced early last month.

hands down, the paper wallet https://github.com/vergecurrency/VERGE/files/1167888/paperwallet.zip

^^^Thank you, I'll get onto that.

@CryptoXvg @tehMoonwalker
So xvg has a transparent ledger that obfuscates IP addresses?  What's the advantage to that over using Bitcoin via tor?

Many times I see this question.
Dev, can you pls explain the tech difference behind it?

Thx a lot.

bitcoin only has the option of using tor, and with their core wallet. we have an advantage over that, by having multiple private resources over tor AND i2P, including electrum clients, and soon, an android wallet that ONLY operates on tor. it's already been beta tested by 10 community members twice and works perfectly. (and following is an i2P only mobile wallet) also, our mining situation is far superior to bitcoin, as our blockchain isnt controlled by bitmain, since it's multi algorithm XD

Why doesn't the web wallet work anymore?

The server was donated and no longer active. No funds are recoverable (see previous posts). The announcement was over a month ago.

Seriously?!?!?!
