Topic: Alternatives to Blockchain.info? (Read 457 times)
as alternatives to blockchain you can use BitGo https://www.bitgo.com/ , Coinspace https://coin.space/?network=bitcoin,coinapult https://coinapult.com/ for all details about the online wallet : https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/web/
Offline cold storage wallets are always the best for large amounts or accredited exchanges only for small amounts.

I often see him promoting his referral links here so as expected when I quoted his reply, I found another referral link. Don't worry those are just empty words used to lure users into his referral link. I bet he's not gonna promote if it doesn't offer any referral commissions.

i would say the exactly same thinkn when there is no refferal program !
iam still using this page since 4 years and he has a great alexa rank ways better then most other online walleds!
freebitcoin has same trafic as blockchain.info so for me its a good option!

Based on this, looks like your suggestions are highly affected by these "commissions" that you're getting (even with other topics). Well, I find it as a bad recommendation and I think it's biased.
Also, would you mind to share your bitcoin address on freebitcoin? We would like to know how much money have you put on it == how much trust you put on them.

Your words are empty to me until proven. Looking at your trust history, it seems you've already promoted a couple of ponzi's and as expected you are also in SMAS blacklist (I'm surprised you're on yahoo's campaign though)
And traffic has nothing to do with a wallet's security.

They are clearly the market leaders in terms of online btc wallet. What are the alternatives?
Yes they were considered as the leaders in terms of online BTC wallet but after a hack of a lot of accounts of wallets they are no more the leaders as I have not heard that they will refund the members who lost their money even a few weeks ago the hackers were captured from Ukraine. I think now xapo is the leader but still I will suggest to use desktop wallet they are more convenient for the use of bitcoin. 
As a leading web wallet I don't think that blockchain wallet has some competition, at least I'm not aware of it.
They got the best domain for making web wallet as bitcoin is tied up and well known to its blockchain technology. Every newbie will recognize "blockchain" and will trust to them since they got the domain.However, web wallets are the least secure and I suggest that you avoid that option or at least combine it with some other types of wallets.
Don't store too much bitcoin there so that you'll be at least safe, don't trust web wallets that much.So you could choose among Electrum, Mycelium or Ledger as my favorite wallets that I can strongly recommend.
I'll go with Electrum if no budget of buying a Ledger nano S, also greenaddress is also a good wallet.

I just wanted to use blockchain.info for temp use
Just don't use it if you'll thinking to put big amount of bitcoins there for good. Don't use it as a storehouse, use other wallets that are even safer than bc.info. You can try greenaddress if you can't avail a hardware wallet.As many others suggested, it is not recommended to use online wallets. But if you prefer web wallets over software or hardware ones, blockchain.info looks the best option in my opinion since it has lots of feature like for example the option to buy BTC and ETH directly from your wallet.
I'm using it because it's very handy and easy to use but it's only for small amount not with big amounts. Greenaddress is a good one which supports Segwit too.You can backup seeds and private key and save anywhere in your computer or you can write down it into paper or notes..
And i was holding a good amount of bitcoin and until now never experience any issue.. the good thing you can use the latest segwit that you can reduce your transaction fee every time you transfer bitcoin unlike legacy wallet or non segwit wallet .
Just always remember use a wallet which you can backup the private key so that if the wallet lock down you can recover your wallet into other wallet with private key support..
Blockchain.info was a good alternative to people who want ease of access and have a lot of mobility in their life, who hasn't in our time nowadays ? Now that Electrum is available for mobiles running the Android operating system it is a no brainer to stop using blockchain.info and start running Electrum. It is one of the most used wallets here in the forum and I think it is because of the features and security it offers compared to other wallets. Still use the mobile version of Electrum only for daily trading, gambling and spending, do not keep a big amount of coins in it. Also make sure the Seed is stored in a safe place in case you lose or broke your phone.
Electrum is a good choice as it has segwit wallet too and I've seen people here in the forum does have that "bc" address and it came from electrum if I'm correct. But for now, I'll remain with blockchain.info as I like the adjustment with the fees which is really convenient to me.
This doesn't make sense. You can also adjust your fees in Electrum, but if you choose a Segwit address, you will pay 50% less in fees. I really don't see any advantage on using Blockchain's wallet. You can even choose a wallet with addresses starting with a "3" rather than the "bc1" format for better compatibility.

I've been using the blockchain.info wallet for a few years now and didn't have any problems whatsoever, except for the fee oscillating.
You can get your private keys, various security options, has direct exchange,etc... the only thing that's missing is the support for segwit.
I am also using blockchain for a while now and it has really low fee when we compare it with its rival of coinbase wallet,and it also has more security options than coinsbase.So blockchain wallet can be considered as the alternatives for many wallets but I am wondering why the OP is looking for alternative to blockchain.info.You can get your private keys, various security options, has direct exchange,etc... the only thing that's missing is the support for segwit.
But I have seen that blochchain wallets more ofter faces bugs like can't send the bitcoin,so it may be a reason for him to search an another wallet.
I just found a wallet name called cryptonator multi coin wallet but I never tried it so if you want to try use it with you own risk.
Electrum is a good choice as it has segwit wallet too and I've seen people here in the forum does have that "bc" address and it came from electrum if I'm correct. But for now, I'll remain with blockchain.info as I like the adjustment with the fees which is really convenient to me.

I have no issue with blockchain.info either and with their segwit support, I think it will be on March.You can get your private keys, various security options, has direct exchange,etc... the only thing that's missing is the support for segwit.
https://blog.blockchain.com/2017/11/15/segwit-bitcoin-cash-update/
But electrum is also available in android platform,one of the best wallet for bitcoin,so you can try it also.

I think the blockchain is one of the best online wallet,but there are lots of online wallets are available but none of its are highly secure to store our funds.But coinbase could be a good altenative for blockchain.info wallet,but recently I found that blockchain wallet has less fee than the coinbase.But none of the supporting segwit addresses yet,so the fee is more than we compare to the other software wallets.

Features aren't the first option you should be paying attention to. The first priority is whether or not you are given the option to have access to your private key(s), because that is the most important aspect.If the service in question goes down for whatever reason, or undergoes maintenance taking like 24 hours, which is something happening with Binance right now, you will then still be able to gain access to your coins.
Blockchain.info fits nicely in that category, but the largest player being Coinbase not, which is a shame.

I see you are full member rank, so your earnings are not so big yet, am I right? The alternative that I can suggest you is to use your exchanger address to money go directly there for your another operations with coins, that will help you to skip all unnecessary fees.
You are able to get free bitcoins for being a member of some websites or to do some easy tasks, but you always have to do something to get bitcoins. there are some free bitcoin apps that will provide you an opportunity to earn free bitcoins in the form of Satoshi.

There are lots and I would say its not actually alternatives since I do consider those things as main wallet and online web wallets are just alternative or add up on the option but storing bitcoin on these wallets is somehow risky though this is why I would suggest Bitcoin core as my main but not all people would really prefer this thing because downloading the entire blockchain will really be pain in the ass which is actually true if you do have crawling internet then skip this one and use electrum instead.

Electrum are few SPV wallets rather than blockchain.info like web wallets but they are better than any web wallets and easy to use as hot wallet.
Btc.com, viabtc, block.io and many more provides web wallet service but I don't trust web wallet as much as I trust SPV wallets.
They are clearly the market leaders in terms of online btc wallet. What are the alternatives?
If you're satisfied with what blockchain.info brings to the table then just keep on using them.
But if you want suggestions:
- Electrum(you have to download it though)
- BTC.com(multisig wallet, trusted)
- Coinbase(easy to buy and sell but at the same time, you don't control your own private keys and support is bad)
- Greenaddress(many options, including nlocktime and multisig i believe)
- Coinb.in(advanced users)
There's also a bunch of others which are more like exchanges than wallets, which i do not recommend using.

Where's the basis? Just because most of us here are using it that will your assumed statement regarding on who's the market leader when it comes to web wallets?There are still some good web wallets out there that you can use, I prefer to get with greenaddress and I tried it out before and if something happened to blockchain.info I'll switch back to it.
Also refer to these wallets https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/web/

Every online wallet are not safe because your private key is shared to wallet provider. That is the most of the people avoid in online wallet. Still people are using it in that blockchain and coinbase wallets top in the market and those wallet address dynamic nowadays and it is good option to being anonymous.
You can go xapo or mycelium which can be convenient to work in the mobile itself.
I wouldn't suggest any third party wallet. If you look for a mobile wallet, I can recommend mycelium or coinomi for android. If you want to save your funds on longterm, you could generate a paper or mind wallet on bitaddress.org

They are clearly the market leaders in terms of online btc wallet. What are the alternatives?
i'm not sure that's actually true. as a company they've claimed some impressive numbers, but i've seen some compelling arguments that they are drastically exaggerated. they use unverifiable things like "number of wallets" as data, when many of those wallets are abandoned and inactive. i've had dozens of blockchain.info wallets over the years, used as throwaway wallets. they're probably counting all of them. they also count transactions that use their "broadcast" service as being transactions made by blockchain.info "users." i use their push service all the time, but i'm using my electrum wallet to craft and sign the transactions.
i'd avoid web wallets altogether. if you must, use greenaddress. they are recommended by bitcoin.org, they have implemented segwit and multi-sig, and they are generally more secure and reliable than blockchain.info.
as i implied, though, i prefer a lightweight desktop client like electrum myself.
I don't trust any web wallet as of now i just wanted to safe all of my bitcoin into bitcoin wallet that i have backup seed phrase that anytime soon i can recover it in other wallet.. Electrum is the best option for me since i never had any problem saving my bitcoins for a long time ..
Like the above said mycelium for mobile would also the best option and safe secured.. Remember those online wallet are always having problem bugs or glitch or sometimes auto send to other wallet. so if you wanted to be safe you bitcoin wallet wisely..

I find Mycelium as the best alternative to blockchain.info. Mycelium has some amazing features like custom tx fees which helps you to transfer your funds at low transaction fees, Easy to recover by 12/24 passphrase words.
Even Mycelium has been recognized as one of the best mobile wallets in the bitcoin industry, so much that it was awarded the 2014 “Best Mobile App” by Blockchain.info

Coinbase is perfect competitor for blockchain.
Except that Coinbase is an exchange where you don't have access over your private keys. Meanwhile, Blockchain.info is a wallet which you can export your private keys. Not the best comparison.Most of the both these wallet fees and usge specification all would be same but from the past 6 months Coinbase team working better than blockchain
Why is the Coinbase team working better than Blockchain? What have they accomplished?and their fees also little lower always than blockchain.
They are not...? You can actually choose the fee you want in Blockchain.Re Ven time BTG hard fork also coinbase team provides the support notice to all their wallet users. So it is being always ahead.
Coinbase doesn't support BTG or BCH. Blockchain does fully support BCH (including send and receive). How are they ahead?

It isn't good if you store ypur coins on an online wallet there are many cases happens that they're account being hacked, locked and anything that similar happening about it. I think ot would be best if you store it in a hardware wallets like Ledger Nano and Trezor they are the best wallets you could have. Hot and cold wallets are best alternative too. 
They are clearly the market leaders in terms of online btc wallet. What are the alternatives?
They are the online alternatives to the original Core wallet,I don't know why would you for an alternative of an alternative. that is the weirdest definition that anybody has ever given for blockchain.info!!!
they are actually one of the worst wallets of all times. there have been bugs that led to money losses (for example usage of random.org for their random generator when creating a new private key!) and they have had lots of bugs, also they had the worst fee estimations which usually gave 100 sat/byte no matter what!
and they have not yet implemented SegWit after all this time!

They are the online alternatives to the original Core wallet,I don't know why would you for an alternative of an alternative.It is never safe to store your coins in an online exchange/wallet.Try using Electrum instead.It is as user-friendly as blockchain.info and has a better fee structure.The best part about it,it's open-sourced. 
They expanded the service.
Have added a new purse.
Now serve three currencies BTC,ETH,BCH

Yes, I use multiple air gapped offline wallets, however, it's curious that there is no serious competition to Blockchain.info Web wallets are useful for some situations where you don't want your real wallets anywhere near you.
according to https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/web/ these are the other web wallets:
Bitgo
coinapult
coin.space
greenaddress
there are also others that bitcoin.org doesn't list including blockchain.info!
BTC.com
StrongCoin
Eidoo
and of course the wallets that you do not control private keys to but they are web wallets:
Coinbase
Xapo

Blockchain.info actually has the majority of users in the industry and its largely due to either the domain name or the time they have spent in the industry. But there are still several alternatives that are doing fine depending on which one you want to go with just do your review right and some exchange sites offer wallet services as well. BTC.com, Xapo, Coinomi, etc. Web wallets are very useful in case you want to quickly do some transaction but just as a precaution is not to keep the bulk of your funds there since you are not using everything at once They are clearly the market leaders in terms of online btc wallet. What are the alternatives?
There is no better alternative to blockchain.info when it comes to online web wallets in terms of security and customer service.I'd say Coinkite would be the next alternative, but blockchain.info is better.
With that said, you shouldn't use it for amounts that you can't afford to lose as you're entrusting your money to a third-party. You should use a hardware wallet or at the very least an offline wallet such as Electrum.

In my opinion It is the best alternative. However, you should avoid using online wallets.
yes please avoid if possible ,, there is no reason to use web wallet in this day and age but best web wallet i have use and never encounter issue is localbitcoin web wallet maybe they are only exchange who never create any problem at all for their user that team is very impressive to me , blockchain.info is also very good and high security they have too
In my opinion It is the best alternative. However, you should avoid using online wallets.
