I have a load of xvg sat on an exchange. Can I leave them there whilst the hard fork goes ahead, I have little desire to mess about trying to sort a working wallet on OSX.

Depending on the exchange, they SHOULD be ok.
(IE: big exchanges will support the updated wallet... your coins will be updated with them )
its the smaller exchanges taht might be a problem. ie: if they decide to not update the wallet. (and those, hopefully would tell you that they arent, and to remove your coins asap)
thats the risk. that the exchange wont update. (with any coin)

kel-alt = I moved most of Verge to paper wallets. Since they are not 'working wallets', you will have to import keys into a hot wallet in order to send or sell at some point. Paper wallet link is on website. My eyes had trouble with the font difference between the B and 8 and S and 5, also the small 'i' has a tail that can make it look like an L. I followed security advice and bought a new laptop and printer that have never been connected to the internet to do this. Have made enough with Verge to afford it! Go Verge! https://vergecurrency.com/paper-wallet/index.html

ijf you go with a paper wallet, you can DL the Generator go OFFLINE and then generate your address, PRINT it.
Then transfer funds to that address.
paper wallets dont need updated.
after the hard fork, and you want to spend again
you have to IMPORT the priv keys.
(directions are easily found for that)

I am pretty excited with the hard fork news at block 1,824,150. Hopefully everything will go according to plan.
Can someone please explain what exactly will happen here? Do we get a new coin? Will more coins be issued? No and No. They are just updating the protocol. The blockchain will continue on a new chain. No new coins are being issued. The old chain will stop functioning at the time of the fork. All coins remain the same. Nothing lost, nothing gained. Good to hear that there's nothing for us to worry about. If you have your coins on a major exchange they will take care of everything. We won't even notice anything changing.

I use Coinomi's wallet to keep my Verge. Will I need to do anything before or after the fork?

Will the coins I have on the old electrum wallet still be transferable and the wallet will be good, or do I need to move them all to the new wraith one?

No way should you store coins long term on an exchange..... unless you also like driving on the wrong side of the road at random times, lol
IMHO

Forks are normal in crypto. Some coins fork on a schedule just to keep the codebase updated. There is nothing to worry about and your coins are safe. I wish people buying into Verge would educate themselves on how blockchains work and there would not be endless questions like this that come across very naive. You would think that people investing in a technology would take a little time to educate themselves on how blockchains work and what a normal fork is. This is being done by the Verge devs. It is not a hostile fork like Bitcoin Cash where other devs are forking to make a new coin.

one sudden day this coin will reach $1 and than jump more like xrp and cnd did. That time everyone will praise this coin, now they will not understand.
That is not impossible. It could be just a matter of time. Verge is already one of the biggest coins out there.

Same here.. deposits from yesterday and today are not showing in balance as pending. Is it a matter of Cryptopia ?? what about pools? Is it safe to keep mining, i.e. at Suprnova?

When the fork is over and they have updated their wallet your coins should be there. Since the fork has not happened yet you can be assured your coins are still on the main chain. I would not mine until the fork is over and at least 500 to 1,000 blocks have been created. Most pools will go into maintenance mode until the fork has successfully occurred.
