There is nothing wrong with the blockchain because its a good wallet the only fact is that its online of course.
They have a nice dashboard and its the most trusted online wallet there is.
Topic: Can I trust Blockchain.info wallet? - page 2. (Read 4633 times)
why is there 4 choices? lol choosing "Yes" probably mean the users are not too confident about the trust they have to the blockchain.
You just can't trust no one with your money really especially if its worth stealing besides btcs that aren't in your possession is not your btc. if its in the blockchain wallet, its on their server.

Online wallets can be pretty safe but its for sure not the safest way to store them, the blockchain online wallet is one of the best online wallets because it has a nice security.
I started my wallet there in 2013 and forgot about it. I recovered it and now updated it to their "new wallet."
I saw a lot of posts on Reddit that say it would not be wise to use them. But I like the site and the app for my iPhone.
Dumb question, if I make an address with it, can I use that address with a different wallet? If so, do I just use the address and key to migrate it?

To be honest, for me, none wallet online is safe enough, but if you still have some BTC on it, just withdraw that to some safest place and forget about him
Of course the blockchain wallet can be trusted without any doubts for sure, its 100% safe, a lot of users are also using it and never had problems with it in my eyes.
I think its a good wallet and it can also be good protected.

Yes, I like that wallet very much. Never had any problem there. Sometimes I see some people complaining about Blockchain.info, but I think they didn't protect their accounts or their computer correctly. Just protect your identifier code, set a strong password and caution with unknow downloads or any other thing like that.

there are millions of members use this wallet around the world , this wallet is very trusty and have high level methods to protect their members , I think you can trust this wallet , but in this time , every thing is expected , for sure they won't steal money , but there is a possibility to be hacked , because there are many financial's problem happen to some governments or big finance company caused by bitcoin .
As of now this wallet is one of the high trusted online wallet.. and i think if you choose an online wallet better to choose it than the other online wallet.. i never get a problem in their wallet. and im still using the old version of blockchain wallet. i dont know about new wallet of blockchain..
Any online wallet can be risky and even if you have the private key of your wallet, it doesn't guarantee that your coins could never be lost. Their 2FA also gives issues and many people have complained about not receiving the code due to which they were not able to access their wallet. Also, due to their variable fee and downtime issues, I stopped using the wallet and went to xapo. Paper wallets are much more reliable rather than online wallets IMO.
The blockchain can be trusted although its of course a online wallet its pretty good secured compared with other wallets.

I think that yes, you can continue using blockchain.iinfo wallet even though with their new wallet recently, blockchain.info is one of the most popular wallets and you can continue or you can move to desktop wallet. Just stay safe and be sure nobody knows your account password and continue using bitcoin.
Indeed you always have to do this, I think it will really help you without any doubts, the fact is that you can also use the google auth app for the blockchain and I think if you do this its pretty good secured.
The google auth is working pretty good, I first thought it was just bullshit but its pretty safe if you use it for your wallet.
I cant find the reddit thread because it says its archived or whatever.
But it has a long list of 24 addresses listed with a minimum of 3 btc balances stolen even with the 2FA security and all.
There was a numerous complaints which is why they been discredit taken off the bitcoin.org site as a recommended online wallet.
If you do decide to go with them, I`d suggest its a place youd move coins eventually soon.

I have had three problems with blockchain.info's wallets (about two and a half years):
a) I had two problems with their SharedCoin mixing service, but the problems were resolved OK.
b) My wallet was cleaned out 100% once without me doing anything (I own the private key?!?!). After some back & forth, I got it back.
Bottom Line: Nothing lost at blockchain.info for me, but I would suggest not holding too much there. Hardware wallets instead!

I think it is the best wallet in the internet , I use it from long time and I trust it , they have new wallet now , but I didn't get it . I will update my wallet later .
I will not trust any online wallet as a saving account. But Blockchain.info has 2f security settings, and you could trust it for small amounts. But you need to remember that all online wallets could be hacked and you could loose your bitcoins. It depends on what you want to do with your wallet.
Yes, you can. I never had a problem with them so far.
The answer to this question is yes and no.
Yes being the fact that you can kind of treat it as a hot wallet and complete your daily transactions over there.
It's also having an option to setup both 2FA as well as second password (which should be set different than your login password for enhanced security) in case you are paranoid.
No being the fact that you shouldn't treat it as a cold wallet and store more than 1 BTC there. Since it's a 3rd party wallet handled by their own server, you are responsible for your loss in case something drastic happens to their servers. No 2FA or second password will save your wallet from getting compromised, as they can easily be revoked from backend database.

I'd recommend you to use Coinbase, as it is just as secure & best of all, Coinbase pays the mining fee.
Coinbase is also much more invasive about your personal identity and the source / destination of your transactions.
That's what you call trade off, better security, lower fee and many services for no privacy and no private key
You just have to choose which one is the best for you.
