I have nearly 150k on three different exchanges. My fear of staking them is I feel they are safer on the exchanges then my own computer. I am still using windows xp. Any suggestions? or info?

Make backups! I keep 3 (encrypted) backups 1) In a safety deposit box 2) In my fireproof safe 3) Next to my computer. Just copy your wallet.dat to a usb.

Was just wondering if someone can take my coins while I am staking? I will download the wallet and check it out. The 28k I have on poloinex is frozen for some reason. But the other two exchanges, cryptsy and trex, I will take. I going to do this

I just downloaded the new wallet and it took about one half hour to sync. Note to stakers: I just added 77000 to wallet from cryptsy. Now to get the 58000 off of TREX. Polo is still frozen.

A few questions: 1. I'm assuming the github still allows you to compile the wallet from source and run it on Linux, correct? 2. Does this wallet release fix the blockchain reorg issue? Has it been already tested on a testnet? 3. Since we're tied in with NXT through SuperNET, does that mean we're going to be running java wallets, or will it remain a C++ wallet? Can someone from Opal answer these questions for me please?

[/quote] Hey a little off topic but I downloaded the new wallet and its giving me no connections or anything to sync? Am I doin something wrong? Do I just download the wallet then open it and wait till it syncs? [/quote] Wallet I downloaded was named opal-qt. I saved it to my computer, opened it the wallet up and it immediately showed the wallet. It slowly began to sink. It should have a SuperNet button on the left. It took about thirty minutes for it to sink. Then when I transfered my coins (instant btw, so cool) it said I had 14 hours to begin staking. Hope that helps

Just installed Opal QT Opaque. It instantly replaced my former wallet and found my coins. Sync very fast. 25 active connections. Sweet. Staking. Just a thought, but can future wallets have an update available notification or, better still, auto update with user preference if not wanted?
