Xapo is the best i think, not for many bitcoins but for small and daily transactions its the best, because it has no fees on transactions.
But for me xapo is the worst online wallet for me i can't login there fast after 2 factor authentic they send the code to my number but it take long time to receive your verification code.. its better to use coinbase or blockchain as online wallet than that wallet..
Then just download xapo app for your phone as the code will be sent to your app rather than your phone number and it's faster that way Wink

Dont use blockchain as their security is a trash overall
My wallet got hacked twice and yesterday i got an email regarding login attempt even though i havent open it in a months Tongue

I don't see how you are getting hacked so easily.  I think it's likely you causing it not blockchain.  Do you have 2 factor turned on with it?

You can go pretty deep with 2FA where even if they have a password it does no good without the 2fa item.   So not sure how you got hacked twice if doing that.  Also they would need to know wallet it... which it seems you would provide through compromised device or phising.  So I don't think you can blame them.

Yes, to quick to blame a wallet when the problem is his own security measures or should we say lack of. It is just a day to day wallet and the most that could be stolen is a day)weeks spending so it is really not a big deal to leave a couple of btc on there.



I feel bad for the ones who get wallets compromised.  But we are in agreement a lot jump to something like "blockchain is crap I got hacked" etc.  It is not the wallets fault in most cases of compromised computer.  You most likely got infected somewhere else.  Once your compromised all data is open, if you keep private key on commuter (horrible idea) the BTC can be taken easily.

On sites that offer 2FA use it.  I cannot fiigure out why every single blockchain account does not use 2FA, it does so much good.  I still am playing with Yubikey's and they work great with it.  For not a ton of cost you can have a much more secure hot wallet.

And ofcourse there are paper and hardware wallets that both do have a place and use.

For Simplicity  &  Security The Best for me is blockchain.info

blockchain is the best for online wallet and for security is not a good
is good and the best for security is trezor wallet or bitcoin core

In over 2 years I have had no issue with Blockchain.info's security. 2FA through my phone, IP restriction, Tor restriction, memoric saved, gmail with 2fa. I also archive the address with the most and of course have an encrypted priv key incase.
That is the safest 'online wallet' I have found or would use.
Trezor is a hardware wallet so is not needed in this thread same as core albiet they're both awesome in their own ways.

Xapo is the best i think, not for many bitcoins but for small and daily transactions its the best, because it has no fees on transactions.
But for me xapo is the worst online wallet for me i can't login there fast after 2 factor authentic they send the code to my number but it take long time to receive your verification code.. its better to use coinbase or blockchain as online wallet than that wallet..

Blockchain and Blocktrail are the best online wallets.

You need to use 2FA if you want your online wallets to be secure as can be hacked easily but if users click any malicious links here in this forum or anywhere even in email.

You can use login code that will be sent to email and 2FA code that will be sent to your mobile number. No worries about surfing the web. Cheesy

What about Bittrex.  Its also good wallet

save bitcoin in the exchanger is very risky. because you can lose just like that. such problems on crypsty and mt.gox

None of the exchanges are supposed to be used to store your coins, and you should withdraw from them as soon as you make the exchange/purchase.
You have so many examples of failed exchanges that "lost" customer funds, it would be simply dumb to be another victim of it.
I would recommend for everyone to use local wallets instead of online ones as well. Be your own bank - that was the idea, so why place trust in third party again ?

I never heard bittrex is a good wallet and i think this is not the best option to use.. Its better to use coinbase or blockchain as our web wallet.
Or electrum for our laptop or desktop pc to store our bitcoins even its offline but you need to sync it in server in order to receive bitcoin or to send bitcoins transactions..

Bittrex is not a wallet, it's an exchange, not recommended for use as a wallet.

Maybe small amounts for trading, always risky though.
well you can look at is as a wallet, it has a lot of cryptos so it would be very beneficial to use it

whenever you think that it is a good idea to use an exchanger as your bitcoin wallet, remember these two recent exchanger incidents:
bter.com which was hacked and lost over 7000BTC
cryptcy which was hacked and closed all its users withdrawals.

True, it has always been said to people out here that don't put your coins on exchanges, just use them only when you want to trade them...
After it is finished, you should withdraw them all and never leave a single piece of your coins there...
As far as i know bter is back after the hack but they were unable to pay back the lost funds http://www.coindesk.com/bter-unable-to-repay-customers-following-alleged-exchange-heist/

Based on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/overview-wallet-and-exchange-security-review-updated-feb-22-2016-1364126 i would go for BitGo. However it depends what you are looking for in a wallet.
All of them have the same problem, they are online. But they also have the same advantage, accessibility.

Both of these wallets don't need any verification except for email verification and you can get access to your private key as well. If you are OK with verifying your mobile number, xapo and coinbase are also good.
