Do not confuse an EverGreenCoin wallet with an EverGreenCoin.org website account. They are different. An EverGreenCoin wallet allows you to receive, hold, and send EverGreenCoin. Some wallets are capable of staking and Dynamic Staking for Charity, click here for a comparison. An EverGreenCoin.org website account allows you to participate easier on this website only. Neither is required for the other. This page details opening an EverGreenCoin wallet. To open an EverGreenCoin.org website account, go here.


Hold your EverGreenCoin yourself

This is recommended for users with at least a small amount of computer literacy and access to one. By running your own copy of the EverGreenCoin software, sometimes referred to as an EverGreenCoin 'node', your account can fully take advantage of staking and the 7% network rewards annually. Select your Operating System below to get started.

This wallet is very resource intensive especially during intial sync.

Blockchain Snapshot (advanced)

A faster way to synchronize

By a process called a 'snapshot'ing you can download one large file that contains the entire individual EverGreenCoin blocks that make up the EverGreenCoin blockchain at a prior point in time.

Paper

EverGreenCoin Paper Wallet

It is possible to paperize your EverGreenCoin with The EverGreenCoin Paper Wallet Creator much like the bank notes, or bills, you are familiar with from fiat money. While this is perfectly safe to do and, in many ways, is safer than using any online EverGreenCoin software because it is not attached to the Internet. However, EverGreenCoin kept on a paper wallet will not collect any network rewards (7% annual compounding daily) because it is paper and therefore cannot help process or secure the EverGreenCoin blockchain.

Please do not waste paper.

Hold your EverGreenCoin elsewhere

These usually are the quickest ways to store EverGreenCoin. They do not involve downloading or running software on your device. They also do not consist of those where you alone hold your private keys, but a third party does. You are entrusting that third party with those private keys and the security of them.


Web

EverGreenCoin Solar Web Wallet System

The EverGreenCoin Solar Web Wallet System is a fast alternative to running your own software and maintaining a copy of the EverGreenCoin blockchain. You can make an account and an EverGreenCoin receiving address in seconds.

This is provided by a device running via solar-power. Web wallets are inheriently exposed to risks and should not be used to store large amounts of EverGreenCoin.

Because of the existing implementation and intrastructure, staking of solar web wallets is not possible. We are exploring options to make staking possible in the future, but no ETA on that as of yet.

This service is provided & supported by the EverGreenCoin Team, EverGreenCoin community, and the EverGreenCoin Foundation, Inc., free of charge for everyone, but the right to block suspicious activity is reserved.


Group staking with BTCpop.co (Third-Party)

BTCpop.co provides a group staking service. While fees do apply and it is a third-party service provider, BTCpop is found trustworthy by many in the EverGreenCoin community and has a long-standing track record of support.


Wallet.App by New Capital (Third-Party)

Wallet.app is an app for both Android and iOS that EverGreenCoin can be added within, but does not offer staking.

Store EverGreenCoin in Wallet.app's app

To add EverGreenCoin (EGC) within the app:
1) Long hold any icon. You will then be given the option to add. 2) Click 'add' and, 3) select EGC.

Note on exchanges

Some EverGreenCoin users will leave their EverGreenCoin at a secondary market, or 'exchange', where they purchased. This is extremely unadvisable.

Leaving your EverGreenCoin at an exchange is not only risky because you do not determine the security, you will get no network rewards because most exchanges will stake your EverGreenCoin for you. Please be smart and safe with your EverGreenCoin and do not follow this practice. If you are a day trader or plan to try trading for profit with your EverGreenCoin, only leave the amount you need for your trading at the exchange and store the rest using one of the above solutions.

Next Steps...

You can optionally verify your wallet address functionality. The EverGreenCoin Foundation will send a small amount of EverGreenCoin to your EverGreenCoin address. This is done to help you gain familiarity with the EverGreenCoin software. These transactions start processing at midnight Eastern Standard Time and are sent within 24 hours.
