You're going about this in a very creative way, my friend Wink


Yeesh, no kidding. Not sure where I got it in my head that I should look any further than their websites and forum page. The [ANN] strategy works great! Thanks for the advice Smiley

And as far as security goes, would you say storing the wallet.dat files on an portable HD is a sound strategy? I disconnect it when not in use, and have the files hidden and encrypted.

Hey guys,
I started using Hashco as my mining pool so that I could mine various altcoins without having to monitor it. However, I don't want them converted to BTC, I want to mine them and sit on them in hopes of their market increasing. Right now, the only wallet I have is for BTC. From what I hear, there are alot of fraudulent wallets out there so I am uncomfortable finding the various wallets for all of the altcoins. Can someone give me links to trustworthy wallets for the following coins, or direct me to a list online that has a confirmed, trustworthy list of wallets?

The following are the most commonly mined coins by Hashco as of late, so they are most important...

DGC
EAC
LOT
MOON
NET
RPC


The rest are other coins that the site may mine...

42
ALF
ANC
CAP
CAT
CGB
CSC
DMD
DOGE
EMD
FRK
FST
FTC
GME
IFC
MEC
MEM
MNC
PHS
SBC
SXC
WDC
XNC

I don't anticipate anyone having a wallet for every single one, but please share any wallets if you have used them for a while without problems. Thanks!

The safest way to get a wallet file is by using the wallet in the main [ANN] thread of a coin. Do a google search ( works better then the internal search function of this forum ! ) with parameters like this : "[ANN] Doge" "[ANN] WDC" etc.

I definitely recommend using wallet files on your own PC instead of relying on a pool's website.

Just get them from their official websites or their threads over in alternative currencies on the forum here.
