Can somebody advise me please i own EMC and its on POLO sitting there. Is there a benefit to transferring them to a wallet to earn value.. Is that possible.. If so can you instruct me or provide a link as to how this is done..
Yes there is a benefit of earning proof-of-stake (POS) when the coins are in your own wallet ... download the wallet from:
https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/2144-emercoin-emc-information/Skip down to downloads. After installing create a receiver address and send your coins from POLO to the address.
With proper redundant backups (throw one into your safety deposit box) you coins are probably safer than sitting on an exchange - esp if they gain in value and the exchange gets hacked (like what happened to Cryptsy although POLO I think is pretty tight - you just never know after Gox)
