I hold a fairly large amount of Noblecoin and I am wondering if I should transfer them to somehwere like Poloniex ready for the wallet switch as I understand that this means I can then transfer them back into the new wallet without having to worry about anything technical?
I appreciate the need to change to POS but from a user adoption point of view it is a right pain for the average person to worry about wallet switches and blockchains - if Noblecoin wants to become adopted and successful then from now on it needs to ensure that any user can download a wallet, buy some coins and then not worry about having to do anything technical to secure those coins in future - I wonder how many wallets will not get updated this time and how many potential future users will be lost.
There is no time limit, you can import you private key(s) even 5 years after the switch and your coins will be there waiting for you
It is just the exchange that have specific date when they switch between the old wallet and the new.I have just moved all my NOBLE to Cryptsy.
Am I now free to just twiddle my thumbs until after the POS conversion?
I have reached out to all exchanges where Noblecoins are being traded. Would like to hear that all of them acknowledge the procedure. So far heard back from all small exchanges and had conversation with Bittrex. There is also open ticket with Cryptsy which they put into 'working' status couple days ago. So far I have not heard anything from Poloniex and still trying to get confirmation from them.
If someone from community knows people from Poloniex please talk with them. IT is in our best interest to get confirmations from all major exchanges.
