WhiteOS utilizes a custom, optimized and hardened Ubuntu environment based on the latest version 14.04LTS.  WhiteOS is a secure and portable operating system that anyone with a PC or laptop will be able to use. Because the OS and Wallet data files are stored on a USB, you effectively have true cold storage, and your coins will follow you wherever you go.

BUILT IN ANONYMITY - One of the most unique features of this secure environment is that the wallet and browsers are redirected through a TOR proxy to ensure anonymity and privacy (this runs locally by default). When you unplug your USB stick no trace is left on the host PC.

A special thank to all the private and public  beta-testers (some who wished to remain anonymous)!!!  We have fixed many bugs that I would not have found on my own system.

We are dedicated to make WhiteOS as feature rich and secure as possible.  Continued development on some really nice and unique features is under way and will be released in future versions.    

What happens after the release of WhiteOS, we have some really nice unique ideas that we are willing to implement in future versions of WhiteOS, so we continue to develop on WhiteOS as a good and secure and portable OS. Once the release of WhiteOS is succesfull more features will be added

Download:
WhiteOS_0.2.2_x86_live.iso 1.07 GB - Mirror 1 (mega) | More mirrors soon
WhiteOS_0.2.2_x64_live.iso 1.09 GB - Mirror 1 (mega) | More mirrors soon

If you like my work, consider buying me a beer @ WC: WPTThUxWVSnvrRivH4epkkGGX1JQvd74pf or BTC: 1EP1RWV8Wt4geJgQBpdoTho2UifaNpTWMy

Options to install:

• On USB so it's portable (main idea and easiest)
• Under windows (VMWare/Virtualbox (make sure to use PAE)/Hyper-V) (easy)
• Dual-boot next to windows (advanced)

WhiteOS comes with a backup tool to remotely backup your wallet and home dir. You can either backup using FTP / SSH / Windows Share or other drives. Just look under settings and make sure to create backups.

Caution:
IF YOU ARE INSTALLING WHITEOS ON TO YOUR MAIN PC, ENSURE YOU DO NOT OVERWRITE YOUR PRIMARY OS... IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THIS, THEN WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU FOLLOW THE USB OR VM INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE THAT YOUR MAIN OS REMAINS SAFE

Thanks for the reminder...

Dont trust any exchange.

I get in and get out.

Your wallet is the only thing that is safe if you follow the basics.

However make sure you encrypt with a very very secure password.

I dont know if this apples to alt coins but it may...

next time you want to comment, maybe read the forum you're in and you will see who's involved

move along...

mindfox dropped this coin and he is main dev - move along

I prefer cryptsy, high volum than bittrex

WC-->White

If you dont recieve your coins till end of the month, i sure will send you some. Not much but some i can afford.
Many ppl here helped me few month before, so thats my obligation.

The coins that aren't in my wallet are on Bittrex....I sure did like the interface at Mintpal better...but such I life!    I think Bittrex is the best bet for us now and I hope that volume will continue to increase there until we find a new home. 

Thanks for the replay Oizo. I never tried Bittrex befor but i like to see that they have a good support. I will give them a shot and try it out. How much do they charge on fees?

I would like to withdraw mx coins but they are not seen on my balance. It is a bug with V2. It was the best choise that you made to withdraw you funds from Mintpal. I not suspected that moohla is such a bad business man.

That really sucks Nexby. Maybe you can still withdraw them in time (needs to be done before 31 oct.
About the discussion item, ever since i heard of the vrc trouble i removed some coins from Mintpal, and shortly after i heard Moolah was taking over i had a bad feeling about this. So i moved everything out of Mintpal.

For a long time i have my Whitecoin staking in my wallet and have put my other coins on bittrex. Bittrex has IRC support aswell and are very active with good support. Cryptsy won't see me back after to many problems caused by them (double withdraw bug, slow daemon updatinng etc). Also they do not have a IRC support and the ticket system support just isn't good enough for me.

Update on mintpal and my missing coins.
In short words they are broke and it looks like i will not see my coins back.

I tried hard to contact Moohla Ldt in the past days, but i do not get any answers anywhere (Mail, Forum and Twitter). I lost exactly 261322,7865 WC on this exchange. I transferred them on oct the first before they consider to make an (useless) update. But they never arrived on my balance.
I really would appreciate it, if you like to help me out with this

Thank you!

I do not like to ask for this, but on the other side i do not know what i can do when i lost so many coins. I know it has nothing to do with WhiteCoin it is only the fault from Moohla Ldt. and by me to trust them and send my coins to them.

For Diskussion:
Mintpal was the main exchange from Whitecoin. We need to change it to other exchanges. Which one do you prefer and why? How can we get traffic to the other exchanges for Whitecoin?
Suppositious Mintpal will not open again and nobody will get their Whitecoins back, then we have a lost from 48223622.343750 WC on the hole network. What will we do?

Thanks!, it's difficult to give an exact date yet. but i think i should have it done by next week. while preparing the 32bit final version i'm preparing the 64 bit version aswell. it depends a bit if mayor bugs shows up. (untill now there have not been any, just some small UI fixes)

 Thanks for all the effort Oizopower - gr8 work too!   is the 64bit version a long way away?
