I'm not claiming that the blockchain.com wallet is unsecure, but I've read enough complaints to not recommend it to people, even though I've used it in the past with no problems(just with small amounts of bitcoin).

Here's a fairly recent one: Topic: Blockchain.com scam - lost funds https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/blockchaincom-scam-lost-funds-5157460

hello
after some time on this forum i found out that ppl dont really like blockchain com, they kinda hate it. can smb explain me why plz?
blockchain info is just a wallet, so it cant be hacked the same as the stocks. and also blockchain com company is too big and is on the market for a really long time, so it wont rob anybody, if im mistaking correct my mistakes plz
thank you

they teamed up with miners and other large companies and loudly campaigned for increasing the block size with a hard fork. that rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. you'll find similar disdain for bitpay and coinbase too.

it's also an online wallet---much less secure than a desktop wallet due to MITM attacks and such. it's just reckless security-wise so people get scolded for using it sometimes.

They made some really bad mistakes as wallet service. People remember such things.
They just doesnt have good PR, but people still using them without major problems.

First- blockchain.com is not a big company. It's big but not as big as you think.

If someone "hack" an stock market exchange, there are many laws and  insurances that will protect you. There aren't laws or insuarences if you lose your bitcoin.

If you ever make a wallet, you will be only responsible for its security.
If you chose blockchain.com as a wallet, you have to know the risks involved and that they have no responsibility over your funds.

In my opinion, unless you are an expert, you should buy a hardware wallet such as trezor or ledger nano.
