Thanks for sharing my friend, since I started dealing with bitcoin I  used different wallets as xapo wallet coinbase and now I'm using blockchain and I don't know if it's really the best choice as an online wallet or there's a better wallet and if someone can help me especially the lowest fees wallet.
^ Nah, for me I never preferred to use a web wallet when storing my bitcoin safe. I used them sometimes when I am going to exchange my bitcoin into fiat but staying longer time I never do that. I'd choose Electrum wallet, I think it is the safest wallet for bitcoin even you stored in a long time as long as you have your password and private key. I always remember this, once you did not own your private key in bitcoin wallet then, that does not belong to you.

And for mobile wallet, Coinomi is one of the best mobile wallets that supports multiple cryptocurrencies.

I love coinomi wallet. It was one of the first wallets I ever used it. It's getting improved every month.

I am sad to know it's closed source, which is the only downside of this Wallet for me.
I use the coinomi wallet but for a multi cryptocurrencies wallet their code isn't expected to be open source,more especially if the company had invested alot of money to the app developed... keeping it closed source for now is the only sure way to recover some of its costs incurred AFAIK.
 
All in all the coinomi wallet is still recommendable to anyone that wants a go at it especially that private keys can be easily accessed.


Im a coinomi wallet user before but i stop using them until i found that this wallet cant be used on bounties and airdrops because they didnt support erc20 coins  . i also found out that coinomi wallet has an extremely high transaction fees  .

 and i didnt think that you can obtain your private keys with them but private key isnt really my priority  . now im only using myetherwallet as its supports all erc20 coins  and i use electrum for my btc and because electrum do also have a segwit .

Over the years, investors have faced a common problem of locating the safest and convenient medium to store their cryptocurrencies after purchasing them from the exchange websites. We have, therefore, compiled some of the best cryptocurrency wallets that offer storage services for multiple coins.Please suggest me some multi wallets to store my tokens.

I hope that you know how to backread they already mention what you need like the hardware wallets it supports most of the altcoins and token.
But if you are looking for other wallets I have other option to use.

You can check Coinomi wallet and Zelcore wallet both of these support multiple crypto including ERC20 token but not all ERC20 token are supported.

My mistake. I don't like Blockchain.com/Blockchain.info because it's a web wallet, but yep you can control your funds because you have your private key etc. In my opinion, owning your own private key is still risky if you use a web wallet, you can get phished, got dns hijacked, etc. Of course it does not always happens, however the risk is too high for me.
You're absolutely right, web wallets is least safe to use, even if you have full control of your coins there. Phishing is a big probkem when we talk about web wallets and lot of people lose money because of it. If people choose to use web wallets, they shouldn't keep big amount of crypto there.

If you have very limited coin and do the daily trading or short term then can use some of the best web wallets available and store it in multiple wallets so that you can do not store everything under one wallet . Also if you do not want to use frequently then offline is the best way to safeguard it.

If our wallet is not safe means we need to change the wallet,diversing all funds into more unsafe wallet cannot be the best solution.It is just like simply throwing all money and expect the scammers to pick some and run with it. Cheesy

There are people still using Xapo?  Shocked

There is no "best wallet" simply because the best is the one that fit your needs. As we have different needs or different preferences we may have each our best wallet. It's up to people to try depending on what they're looking. OP should have at least categorized the wallet types (web-based wallet, hardware, software, paper,...)

The difference here is that you are an experienced user who is well aware of the risks of using a web wallet, has taken steps to minimize these risks, and is prepared to accept the loss of your coins being stored in the web wallet should it be hacked or otherwise compromised. The problem is that many web wallets advertise themselves as a complete, all-in-once service for storing all of your crypto, while (admittedly) also being quicker and easier to set up than a hardware or paper wallet. Many newbies continue to buy in to this advertising, storing all their coins on a web wallet with the same weak password they use for their email, Facebook, Reddit, and who knows what else, and then blame all of crypto when they are inevitably hacked.

Web wallets are great for use as hot wallets and I primarily use them for that purpose. I keep a trivial amount of money on my Blockchain wallet for daily use with the Blockchain app, and it's much more convenient than using another sort of wallet. I've had my Blockchain wallet compromised in the past, but that was entirely my fault as I was using a password that I used on another site that had its passwords leaked. Wasn't a big deal because I wasn't using the wallet as my main form of storage though. As long as you use a unique and reasonably long password and you don't keep a large amount of money on a web wallet, they can be just fine.

First of all it's not Blockchain, it's Blockchain.com, I think we need to use accurate names to avoid confusion. I'm not saying that it's worth to use Blockchain.com wallet, but actually you have control of your coins on this wallet because there you recovery phrase.

I also use Coinomi for a long time without any complaints. But I think it's worth to say that there was one security issue on Coinomi some time ago:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/cointelegraph.com/news/coinomi-wallet-addresses-vulnerability-concerns/amp

That is not a reason to call them the best wallets to use. I prefer a wallet where only me can have full control. I personally won't add Coinbase, Blockchain, or something similar to this list.

These are the best wallets to use for all your different coins
greenaddress.it/en/
electrum.org
It is the first time I know that both of these wallets support more than one cryptocurrency [Bitcoin].
If you want to choose a Bitcoin wallet, check this list -----> https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

For multi-cryptocurrency wallets: It is difficult to create a detailed list where many wallets are closed source>
Best:
trezor.io (http://trezor.io)
ledger.com/pages/ledger-live (http://ledger.com/pages/ledger-live)
exodus.io (http://exodus.io)


I just want to add these 2 wallets that you can use for multiple cryptocurrencies.

For hardware wallet, Keepkey is one of another wallet that has a different security feature.

And for mobile wallet, Coinomi is one of the best mobile wallets that supports multiple cryptocurrencies.

OP, when you're making threads like this one, put some effort. Now you just posted some links in random order without any details about wallet. It doesn't help to decide which wallet to use at all. You need to specify type of wallet (web, desktop, hardware) and explain which one are best to use. For example web wallets aren't recommend to use, while paper and hardware wallets are safest to use, desktop wallets is optimal for most users, but it doesn't gives maximum security.
P.S. FYI Bitpay and Bitgo isn't a wallets at all, it's crypto payment proccessors for business. And it's not Blockchain.info anymore, it's Blockchain.com
I've edited the thread and I'm on a phone making this thread and im not the best at using one

I hope that I helped you at deciding which wallet to use ..

How can it be a help for deciding what's wallet to be used if you just shared some links and you didn't spend time sharing your views at it. You should add some details if you really want to suggest the best wallets* to used.

You didn't add some sorting or categorizing too. Newbies might think that third party wallets is 100% safe*.

Although there are threads like that before, I suggest to reconstruct your post and make it more informative.

I stopped using xapo's wallet when they implemented the high fees. I thought they already stopped  because I have no news about them and rarely hear them through suggestions.

Exchange and online wallets shouldn't be considered as best wallets.

No offense OP, but that is a terrible list. You are including a bunch of online wallets, which shouldn't really be called wallets at all, as you trusting an unknown third party to hold your bitcoins for you. If you kept $1000 in cash at a stranger's house, you wouldn't say it is in "your wallet". The only coins you should keep in an exchange are coins you are actively trading, and there is pretty much no reason to ever use a mobile wallet. Coinbase in particular is a very poor choice given their history of shady activities and the fact they say they will "back up" your private keys to the cloud - that's a huge security risk.

The best wallets to use are paper wallets, trusted hardware wallets (Ledger or Trezor), a full node, or Electrum.

Here's the link to the Ledger official store (click here) if anyone's interested in buying any authentic Ledger products here. Link to the Ledger site in OP only leads to the Ledger Live application and doesn't have much information on the wallets that Ledger offers. You will likely find cheaper prices for used and new Ledger units from third-party sellers, but there's an elevated chance a device from a third-party is compromised and you could lose your coins from a compromised device. Even direct from the manufacturer, reset the wallet when you get it- applies to any hardware wallet you might get.

What you have here is a combination of multi-currency wallets, hardware and online wallets as well as iOS and Android wallets. To be honest all those different groups shouldn't go in the same basket in terms of security.

You do yourself no good by hodling you coins/tokens for long term in wallets you don't have control over your private key, there's no difference between them and exchanges since your fund can be hack or you get denial access to your cryptocurrency for some stupid reasons. If your intentions isn't for trading or short term usages, I don't advice you use them.

Ps: the best wallet to use are hardware/paper wallet and nothing else.

Why did you recommend online wallet like coinbase as it is not a wallet it's an exchange site.

If you are guys want to hold different coins I suggest you guys use official wallet because it is recommended and the other wallet's that you have full control over the private keys is electrum for bitcoin.

Mycelium also good as I use it as my alternative wallet when I am outside in my house.

Hardware wallets are best for holding different coins if you want to stay your coins longer this is the best wallet like ledger nano S.
I'm sure coinbase is a wallet and a exchange site, I checked there website there's a option for a wallet
