They are not a wallet indeed, because if they are counted I guess my bittrex wallet is the most used wallet. Even more then blockchain and coinbase combined.
Simply because I have more funds there.

You wanna say that other online wallets like,let's say blockchain.info doesn't have DDOS protection?
Believe me,all of them (the good one's) have,and they use it.
Back to topic,i love blockchain,i have been using it for a long time and i was always satisfied.

As a bit of a newbiw... I've been investigating desktop and hot wallets quite a bit the last couple of days.

I initially created a blockchain.info wallet... because a lot of the reviews and comments I saw said that it was good and had a lot of nifty features (owning private keys, signing messages etc)... however, a lot of these nifty features don't exist in the "new" wallet, only the old legacy one... I did not know they had recently upgraded, so it seems like a lot of the more useful features are missing.

I created a Xapo wallet a bit by accident. I was wanting to "test" that my wallets were working etc, and was mucking around with faucets to generate an incoming transaction. One faucet made payments direct to the Xapo... I'm still not 100% sure how this actually works, and how these coins are registered in the blockchain as belonging to me?? As there doesn't seem to be a transaction associated with them??

I have also been looking into Coinbase... haven't tried it out as yet... as I think I will just setup a desktop wallet.

Ran into some of the exchange type services (like YoBit)... but I see the overall consensus is that unless you are moving the money/coin or actively trading, you should NEVER leave your money on an exchange. Sounds like pretty decent advice to me.


And finally, although not exactly about online wallets... I have begun in earnest to look at Desktop wallets as with all these online services either getting hacked or running away with peoples money... I'm getting a little paranoid.

I would not consider Yobit as an online wallet.
Apart larger transactions need manual approval their service isn't too trustworthy.There is a reason why people are talking bad about yobit.

Yeah, Blockchain.info is the best online wallet I have used, I have been using BC for over 3 years haven't had any problems yet.

Do you have access or control over your private keys on localbitcoin? I think not, You should consider switching your wallet where you have full access over your wallet.

most online wallets are protected from ddos's so that doesn't really matter the only thing that matters is which wallet can send and receive with faster confirmations that is number one priority to make sure transactions get through accordingly and instantaneously.

How about localbitcoin? Have been using it and no a problem for me yet, can buy and sell with ur bank.

Well I'm amazed that they cover the transaction fees. I've been using blockchain.info for a long time and have processed almost 200 transactions, with their standard fee of 0.0001. So if I had used coinbase.com all this time, I'd have saved 0.02 BTC.

By far blockchain.info is my favourite. It's the most complete wallet on the net. Even coinbase's wallet isn't that good. I do hope they will launch a stable version soon though.

I also love the blockchain dashboard but I only use it for low amount transaction because controlling a blockchain online wallet is very easy.
I also have a high amount bitcoin and that is safely stored in my paper wallet right now.

You are right about that the blockchain wallet is very good and also good secured these days, I really think you can make nice transactions from it and its also that its all very nice to have a good overview of your bitcoin in this wallet.

for me blockchain because its the only wallet i use

so,i guess all wallet such as multibit,electrum and coinbase are part of blockchain wallet as it using blockchain system to get connected to the network
guess you're mentioning blockchain.info not blockchain system because it was definitely different,blockchain.info = wallet provider
blockchain = bitcoin's system

The best online wallet avaliable is coinbase.com!
They are a free service, conditionally insure the currency stored there, DDOS protection and they cover the transaction fees.
They are also a fairly trusted site on this forum.

There are also oter online wallets suh as yobit and blockchain.info but these, I feel, are less reliable!

The blockchain wallet is way better because it has a nice overview also with its dashboard, I think that everyone can use this wallet and that its also petty good secured.
It can be used by expert bitcoin owners but indeed also by newbies.

it's the best wallet for a newbie in bitcoin world, it's too easy to learn about this wallet. just simple and not take a long time to learning this. the best wallet ever I saw. I didn't think to move o another wallet.

I agree, blockchain.info works best for me so far

i guess blockchain is the most used and they are the best wallet that providing their best security for the members , and i know that there are so many wallet that are being developed but this is the most trusted .

You dont have to be afraid for your wallet as long as your doing good and stay away from malicious links spreading out there well your good because you can make sure your wallet is safe and also just make sure you activate your 2fa although it cam be bypass but its another extra key to your wallet will not be compromise easily.

It was interesting to read your suggestions about Bitcoin wallets guys. I keep everything I made for now on Blockchain. But I have very small amount and don't scare too much if something will happen with it. But I wonder for some good protected ways for holding my Bitcoins in future when I will save good amount.
