Can I hold NEM without the client

Hello people,


I am having way to much trouble trying to download the NEM wallet. I don't consider myself bad with computers by any means just can't get it to work, and I hate java as well.

Is there any way to hold NEM apart from using the client wallet. Could I hold it in a paper wallet or something?


Cheers

Technically you are already holding XEM without a client. Since everything exists on the blockchain you don't need anything just to hold them. You will however need some sort of client to access and use them.

Hi Will,

too bad that you have trouble with the client, hopefully another Mac user is able to help you with your problem! As Pat already said, you would need a client to "work" with your XEM. Afik there are alternative clients planned, including a mobile one, but it can take some time to see them in reality. If you just seek for a way to store some XEM please see my signature.

So you are using a Mac? Which OsX version?

What is the problem?
