AboutThe GCC coin

How todownload your wallet?

SAFE AND PROFITABLE

FAST AND EASY INSTALLATION

TheGCCcoin is a scrypt-based coin. It is a fast, safe, and reliable coin with a great prospect for future growth with transaction speed of only 60 seconds. It was initially released as a proof of work coin. TheGCCcoin transformed into a proof of stake type of currency and through the in-built functionalities (minting interests, decreasing every year) this transition allowed the investors to make profit on it – during the first year, it could provide them with as much as 20% interest using their own coins. In conomy, this process is called staking. Adding to the green profile of TheGCCcoin, staking reduces energy consumed by miners and can secure public ledger in place of the miners normally observing the transactions. The same process can be performed by the investors, as their wallets can take part in the staking process. This does not require additional computing power that is dedicated to mining.

Remember that you must download the new wallet to a device where your old wallet is located. This will allow your coins to migrate from the old to the new wallet.You can find the download link to TheGCCcoin wallet on our official website. It is available for Windows and Mac OS X.

How toback up your wallet?

Go to Control Panel, select Folder Options, View tab, and check Show hidden files, folders, or drivers, to make it visible.Click OK and you will now be able to open the Roaming folder, where the wallet’s backup file is stored.

IN A BLINK OF AN EYE

If you want to send coins from your TheGCCcoin wallet, all you need to have is the address of the recipient. You will also need to provide the password each time you send coins if your wallet is encrypted. Pay To: Type in the TheGCCcoin wallet’s address of the recipient. The addresses that you send your coins to are saved in your address book.Label: This is where you write the name of the recipient.Amount: Enter the amount of coins you want to send. While entering the recipient’s address, it is advisable that you copy it and paste into the PAY TO bracket, so that spelling mistakes are avoided.After you have provided all the required information, click on SEND TheGCCcoin.

Keeping your wallet safe is one of the things you should always remember to take care of, so it’s better if you only open your wallet for staking, and leave it encrypted for sending. Coins received from staking require 40 confirmations by miners and other stakers. The bigger the amount of coins in your wallet, the bigger a chance for you to stake. If you only have several hundred coins, the process will last much longer.
