Poloniex is also a exchange so it should be quite safe to keep your earnings there.
You never use exchange as a wallet. They tend to be hacked, poloniex has been hacked too. Obviously you need to keep something there if you are trading.
If linux is not an option use jaxx.
what is jaxx??? how it works?
interesting...
one more question if you don't mind.. you're a hero member.. sure you are more experienced in cryptocurrency stuff..
in your opinion, which one is safer to keep coins for long term period, poloniex or jaxx?
jaxx.
But first thing to do when windows wallet is released is to move your holdings there. If you want to be really sure just google for 'cold wallet' or 'paper wallet'. Remember to use strong passwords and 2FA whenever it is possible. And remember to remember your passwords
OK.. thanks again for valuable information....it's quite educative.. i learn new thing..
I read the FAQ in jaxx's support page.. I read this line and I'm a bit worried:
======================================================================================
I can't find my ZCash z-address & my address keeps changing! Also, can I receiving ZEC mining rewards in Jaxx?
We only support transparent addresses at this time. We haven't made a full decision on supporting z-addresses yet.
The address changing is normal. Jaxx is an HD (hierarchical deterministic) wallet, which means it generates a new address every time you send/receive funds to/from your Jaxx wallet as a way of keeping your balance private. And yes, you can use any of your previous addresses to receive funds.
And please do not point your ZEC mining rewards to Jaxx, as we are a lightweight wallet that is not designed to receive mining payouts. We do not recommend pointing any mining rig payouts to Jaxx as it may cause issues on your end as well as potentially causing issues on our end.

If you don't mind me asking, how long have you been using jaxx? have you ever experienced any problem transfering your zec earning from pool directly to jaxx's wallet?
Thats my record. I have several 290x tri-x but only one of them gives me this result. Other between 295 and 305.
