is the web-wallet offline? Yesterday i made a transaction from bter, hope it was safe?

The web wallet, as well as the individual wallets are not wallets similar to the QT wallets. QT wallets actually contain the coins, where as the Crypti wallet is just a node that allows access to the blockchain. Your coins are stored in the blockchain and can be accessed from any computer.

You can check your balance on any wallet with the blockchain explorer. You can also view your transactions and research any transfer there.

I just don't get the differentiation and "QT wallets actually contain the coins" is a false statement.
QT wallets contain multiple saved private keys which allows you to sign on transactions. Crypti uses a passphrase as a single private key which is not stored, but the blockchain transactions concept is similar in both (?).

If you have a QT wallet on a SD card, and lose the card, or if you have the QT wallet on a hard drive and the drive is stolen, lost, or damaged, you lose your QT wallet AND ALL YOUR COINS. If you cannot recover the wallet.dat file, you are S.O.L.

But with Crypti, the coins are stored in the blockchain and each "wallet" is nothing more than a node to connect to the blockchain. As long as you have the passphrase, you have access from any computer. There is no way to "cold storage" XCR coins.

BTW........ any person can access the web wallet, and by entering a passphrase used by another user (such as passw0rd, 123456, or trustno1) they can access your coins. You need to activate the second passphrase as well as using a 50 character or more passphrase.

Read: passphrase=private key
A wallet is just a collection of private keys (1 or more) it can be located on a file or on a paper. anyone who know the private key can control the funds in the address it creates.
If you loose you private keys you are S.O.L (had to google it)

Losing the cold storage feature is vary bad. If anyone spying on you it doesn't matter how much characters you put on your passphrases.
I'm not sure why you keep suggesting making a cold storage is not possible with crypti.
Isn't the address created from a passphrase based on a defined algorithm? can't you check what address will be created for a specific passphrase offline then?

Cold storage is not possible with XCR. It s possible with other coins and the QT wallet coins such as LiteCoin and DOGE. The QT wallet can only be accessed from a computer having the wallet.dat file.

The XCR is stored in the blockchain, and is accessed thru the XCR node/wallet. To open a node/wallet to a certain account, the passphrase must be entered. The pass phrase can be 100 characters. A second additional passphrase can be included as part of the node access. There is a 100 XCR cost for this, which is paid to the 10 forgers that verify the algo of the second phrase, 10XCR to each.

Any passphrase entered into the web wallet/node, FROM ANY COMPUTER, will generate a new wallet, OR ACCESS AN EXISTING WALLET if the phrase is correct. SO it is unwise to use common passwords.

I bet I have generated about 30 new wallets by mis-entering my pass phrase. COPY/PASTE is disabled in the wallet presently. I am not sure about the next versions having COPY/PASTE enabled.

As for "people spying on you" to learn your pass phrase........ if your pass phrase is "Judy has great big DD breasts, and a tight ass" then it could be learned from just a glance at your monitor. But if it is "83736$%&(JHGFDYou4675865mdnau29%^&()P8272cbfjMNBG54849" it would require a keylogger to copy.
