Topic: Alternative to xapo? - page 2. (Read 1840 times)
Yes it is true, both xapo and coinbase are now charging fees for external transactions although you shouldn't be choosing a wallet by this factor . I'm guessing that you will be paying for many workers thats why if you want you can reduce the miner fee if you do batch transactions .
Indeed Coinbase account is no longer offering paying the network fees unless you are making a transaction with another coinbase user. This changed a month ago along with other modifications which in my opinion make their service the worst. I would like to remind you about the problems they had with the IRS and their new verification process which require live webcam and on top of that, you don't even control your private keys. Go with GreenAddress If you need a web wallet, Electrum for desktop and Mycelium for Android/iOS.
Sending bitcoin between two coinbase account (offchain) is still free like before, they have added fee only to withdraw out your bitcoin to bitcoin address (onchain) of another wallet.

Coinbase does not charge a fee to use our Hosted Digital Currency Wallet service. Transfers of virtual currency to an address off the Coinbase platform may incur network transaction fees, such as bitcoin miner’s fees, which Coinbase may pass through to you. Any such transfer fees will be disclosed to you at the time of the transaction.
I heard a few months ago that coinbase do not have any fees of transaction so in my mind it was a best alternative of xapo but now members here are saying that coinbase will charge some fees so I want another alternative to xapo with which I will pay to some micro workers without any fees.
Please recommend me a secure and trusted wallet if there is any existed.
