There is a new option now:
Proton wallet.

https://proton.me/wallet

Open source, and proton is a privacy oriented company.

Better than blockchain.com imo.

It seems they are from Proton Mail team so assuming privacy will be the main priority for them in the service. However I am not sure why would anyone is going to use a web wallet. When someone is creating a none custodial wallet they are going to keep their seed safe. Here if I am not wrong then you are going to keep your login credentials safe with your seed. Additional hassle.

The only usefulness I can see is the feature to buy bitcoin instantly in their platform.

I really don't see helpfulness of sending bitcoin to other people via email addresses.

Well, semantics.

It is easier to remember orctradism@proton than bc1p7833bss....

Specially for recurrent payments. I guess it will also generate a new address to avoid address reuse (as it is a privacy oriented company and wallet)

Very interesting wallet imo.

You have the seed and you can also send btc to other proton users just with their email address. I haven't tested yet as I am not a Visionary

They claim that users will own the private keys, seeds that is good as their Proton wallet is non custodial.

But I really don't see the point of sending bitcoin to other people through email addresses. Is it good for privacy? Is it better than sending bitcoin others through Bitcoin addresses. People are free to use change addresses or even create new wallets then get a new address to use for each trade with a new trade partner.

Invites from active users of Proton Wallet will allow you to skip this waiting list.

You can also support us and get immediate access by upgrading to Proton Visionary, our most premium plan with paid features in all Proton products.

By active users, IDK if they meant active users on their platform regardless of account tier or just active in some subscriptions like what they tell here:

Quote from: https://proton.me/blog/proton-wallet-launch

Proton Visionary and Lifetime users have limited invites to share with anybody they want.

Invited users will also receive a smaller number of invites, as the ability to invite some friends makes Proton Wallet more useful.

All proton visionary users can invite 10 people. NotATether shared a screenshot.

I haven't extensively checked the wallet, but I am seeing a sign-up window to create a proton account. With all this, do they still offer an option for one to back up their and later import wallet seeds, making it a self-custodial web wallet?

Apparently, yes!

Quote from: https://proton.me/blog/proton-wallet-launch

Each wallet has a recovery seed phrase that’s only known to you (Proton never sees it). Even if Proton were to entirely disappear someday, you would still have access to the Bitcoin in your Proton wallet with your recovery phrase.

Along with that it's a closed source wallet for years but still most people and even Google assumes its open sourced wallet that itself a red flag and probable cause for not using it. And anyway why someone needs web wallet when they can simply install non custodial wallet such as electrum for Android and blue wallet for IOS.

The problem with Google search results is that they also contain old information and articles about a service. Apparently some of the wallets start off as "open source" only for them to close their source code afterward. A good example is trust wallet. Back in the day, before they even got acquired by binance, there is talk that they were open source. So if a user just bases off Google search, they will easily be confused into thinking that the wallet is open source, yet it's not.

There is no option to back up seeds. You can only use that text file on Guarda as far as I know. Should Guard disappear, your downloaded back-up is useless and might not access your funds forever.

Importing to another wallet is also a pain. You have to import individual private keys of different coins.

One more wallet which supports traditional seed phrases is available on https://app.silentium.dev

Silentium wallet offers a unique solution for keeping your addresses secret from everyone except those sending you transactions. By pressing the "Receive" button, you get a silent address (which looks like this: sp1qqgk4g47pvtmrcxjdz7gx0q6hsj99q768vyft8tfdf2sphaf29v0e6q6u40zeld8zvrcluqtkhah 7pkvy0uja0clh778n4zxcnfe6y57tj5gs8yf9). You can publish this address, and any other Silentium wallet user can send bitcoins to it. The sender enters the recipient's silent address into their Silentium wallet, which then converts it into a Taproot address derived from the recipient's seed phrase. The wallet’s choice of the specific Taproot address for the recipient also depends on the sender's address, preventing two different senders from sending transactions to the same Taproot address of the recipient. Each time the same silent address is used, a new unique P2TR address for the recipient is generated.

As a result, if I publish my address, no one can see when and how many bitcoins I received. This address does not appear in the blockchain, and all transactions sent to it actually go to other addresses.

In fairness to them when I've contacted the support when I was still using it on my beginning years, they're responding to me and that's during the blockchain.info days domain but now, they've become blockchain.com. I have no idea if that's still the same as today but when you've said that there's no support that answers the queries of their users, maybe that's how they are right now.

It also depends on how complex the questions are. IIRC even during .info days they did have a poor support reputation (this ranged from slow response to canned answers) here and on reddit but I wouldn't say the threads I've seen were mostly simple queries.

I guess so, since the problem that I've got before were too simple and I even found an answer on their FAQ.

I think the most important part here is that you don't own the keys there. They will provide you mnemonic words but that's just for the account and not your fund as is you actually own and hold it.

On their private key wallets (note: they call this defi wallet now lol), they actually give the keys. The "backup phrase" or the seed can be used to import on electrum and spend UTXOs. But it's worth noting that you'd have an encrypted wallet file on blockchain.com's end.

So that means that they literally have given that private key/back up phrase to their users. But knowing as you've said that they'll have a file or copy of it whether it is encrypted, that's still kind of sus IMO.

If you are looking for web wallets, you have blockchain.info and trustwallet.com

Trustwallet only supports the mobile version and browser extension, it isn't a web category.

Basically the web wallet service is very limited, technically this wallet isn't recommended at all and there aren't many fans as it can't be integrated into the dapps ecosystem in a practical way.

If you are looking for web wallets, you have blockchain.info and trustwallet.com but I strongly suggest you to do not use them. Still if you decide to use them, at least generate an address and import, don't rely on the address that they generate because you have 0 access to keys.
To be fair, the blockchain.info wallet is annoying, you need to verify email every time you try to log in. It's good for security but it's not comfortable. For safety reasons, I suggest you use electrum wallet. I know it doesn't have the best UI/UX design but it's the best choice in terms of safety.

Since it's just choice, then why not choose something noncustodial and open source. coin.space has both of these features. It also has software versions of the wallet and it's supports multiple cryptocurrencies.

Web wallets are most insecure kind of wallet available although it's convenient because you can use it anytime and any device, but i won't recommended anything like that. I remember wallets like xapo wallets are use to be a web wallets, they become mobile and shitty like blockchain.com, now they are lot of them.

Wallets should be safe and secured first, there are many mobile and desktop wallets that most recommended like electrum and green wallet. If you have the budget for fancy and secured onces, hardware wallets is on the go.

It does sound like op is out of the loop seeing how they used the old "blockchain.info" domain haha. IIRC web wallets were a thing back then especially for day to day transactions however, I'd say even back then there were far better choices for this type of use case.

Fast forward, web wallets have lost most of its appeal to the general users. I can't remember the names but a couple of long time competitors to blockchain.com web wallet have also shut down most likely because of the lack of usage.

If this is about convenience, op. There are some feature packed mobile wallets out there, I suggest taking a look, see: https://bitcoiner.guide/wallet/mobile/

Do not use VPN to access your Binance account if they are getting banned in your country. If you have dual citizenship or even more and Binance operates without problem in that country, you can use that as an advantage and ask Binance support to update your KYC info and this will let you to continue using their service without problems. You will probably have to access them via VPN but don't use free or most paid VPNs, you need VPN with unique IP address that belongs only you.

I do agree the non-web wallet thingy that people are saying. Electrum for example is a great one, it's not online and you do not have to worry about a company going under for your entire savings to go away. I get that it's a lot more easy to use a web wallet because it's right there and you just click a few buttons and suddenly you have the money, that does sound like a great thing I agree, but also it's a very risky thing.

Blockchain.com (used to be .info) is a great place and if you really want to use that then you can use that, I would not suggest any other place, I would always suggest one that is you download and use, proper wallets are like that and online ones are not all that crazy and should not be considered all that great.

Hello friend, common, you are not in the old times anymore.

I was surprised to see you asked these questions, perhaps you have not been reading the important parts of the forum since you opened your account as I can see you are not a new member here as such. I know many crypto web wallets but I advise you not to use them at all and I will not even add them since I can't use them myself.

I don't possibly know the reason why you would want to use web wallets at this current age when people are now smarter about Bitcoin transactions, but one thing I know is that the decision can't ever be smart. My experience about them is bad and aside from that you should be worried about the security of your account. Also, you might be regularly parting ways with a higher transaction fee, I mean insane transaction fees.

Going to put that in consideration, I need to find a wallet to store my bitcoin as soon as possible so I don't have to wait for Binance to shut down here in my country, maybe I can go back to using Binance if using a VPN is a possibility, I don't like using wallets to move my bitcoin because of tx fees.

OP, heed the advice of the more experienced members of the forum, be careful about using web wallets, you're better off storing it in exchanges if you're going to go there, haven't you heard already about the scams that involves these web wallets? You better check them out first and decide for yourself if it's still a good idea to store your bitcoins in a web wallet.

As mentioned above, web wallets are probably something you should stay away from but if you want something in your browser, then any extension should do. There are plenty of them: Trustwallet, SafePal, etc. all have browser extensions and support BTC.

I support the recommendation of Electrum that a few other people made here. There's no ID required, no KYC, no other private information. It's free, it's non-custodial (so you're the only one who has access to your money), and while it is a bit less used-friendly than Blockchain, in my opinion, it's not hard to switch to it and get used to its design.

Electrum is a good wallet as it is free, open source, non custodial, tested by many developers.

It has many plus points like allowing users to create from single signature wallet to multi signature wallet, cold storage wallet and more. It is a SPV wallet so it is light too use and match with many people as no heavy storage requirement with Electrum wallet.

Quote

Just make sure you keep your pass phrase and password safe because if you lose the phrase and the password, nobody will be able to help you get your money.

With Electrum wallet, the wallet file will be encrypted with a wallet password. I agree with you that a wallet password must be strong.

Electrum wallet also allows users to use extended words when creating a wallet. Extended words must be backed up too.

Why the heck you want a web wallet? You aren’t aware of the scams happening due to web wallets or if you store your funds in exchanges? I won’t recommend to store these valuable coins in any web wallets available. They don’t give you complete access to the coins that you store there. Use Electrum wallet, which is the best for storing small amount of coins. If you are holding coins worth millions, then trezor wallet is the best.

Why a web wallet? Because you don't need to download any app for you to use them? If that's one reason, they also have their own mobile apps that their users can download. As you've mentioned blockchain.com's wallet, listen to us, any web wallet is not recommended because you don't own the private keys there.

For your reference, Choose your Bitcoin wallet from this list made by bitcoin.org.

Blockchain.info? I lost some BTC to that online wallet, its a wallet where the maker or builders are in control of your key, meaning they have access to your fund too.

This is just like other scammy online wallet, never ever store your BTC using online wallet, it's not safe, get a noncustodial wallet like Electrum wallet and blue wallet.

With the way wallets are easily getting compromised this days its best to invest on a hardware wallet but if you can't, then go for electrum wallet or trust wallet if multi wallet is what you are looking for, write down your recovery seed, that's your key, and it should be private, don't share with anyone and keep where no one will see.

I don't think that using a web wallet is a good thing, because the wallet could be exposed to security problems that could potentially harm you

Compared to using a web wallet, it is much more secure using a custodial wallet that you can install on your PC or smartphone

There are several apps that you can use, such as BlueWallet, Trustwallet, or Safepal, these are custodial wallets that are usually used by members on this forum and you can try to install them and see if they suit your needs

I think you're a bit confused here, the wallets you're recommending to the OP are non-custodial wallets, not custodial wallets. And there is a difference between the 3 wallets you mentioned: only the bluewallet wallet is an open source wallet, while the other 2 wallets are non-custodial wallets but are closed source wallets and are not recommended for use. You should stay away from custodial wallets and closed source wallets.

But the OP also makes me curious because web wallets aren't talked about much these days and aren't used anymore, why does he keep looking for them when we have better options?

As mentioned above, web wallets are probably something you should stay away from but if you want something in your browser, then any extension should do. There are plenty of them: Trustwallet, SafePal, etc. all have browser extensions and support BTC.

I used to have Blockchain.info, but it's considered less safe than other options. Honestly, though, my primary reason for switching to a different wallet wasn't that: it was an occasional bug with 2FA, locking me out of my wallet for some time because of confirmations not arriving. Like many others here, I don't understand why you're looking for a web wallet, and I support the recommendation of Electrum that a few other people made here. There's no ID required, no KYC, no other private information. It's free, it's non-custodial (so you're the only one who has access to your money), and while it is a bit less used-friendly than Blockchain, in my opinion, it's not hard to switch to it and get used to its design. Just make sure you keep your pass phrase and password safe because if you lose the phrase and the password, nobody will be able to help you get your money.

Web wallet is very risky and close source. I don't recommend web wallet to use.

I generally don't recommend using web wallets, except in some specific and very rare cases. But, I'm curious about the issues you're experiencing with the blockchain.com wallet. Why isn't it working for you? It might help us point you in the right direction if we know what problems you're currently running into.

Web wallets are not popular these days because they are not secure and we have better options, so I think you need to learn more to get a better option to store your bitcoins. If you can't get your hands on a hardware wallet yet, you can also consider some of the suggestions people mentioned above. Among them, I am also using bluewallet for my iOS devices and electrum for my desktop. Those are the two wallets that in my opinion are the best and easiest to use for those new to this market. Both are open source wallets, no KYC required as you requested.

I don't know/use any web wallets, and above mentioned reasons are pretty valid why you shouldn't use them.

If you are so keen on using web wallets then I think extension based wallets are pretty close to web wallets, and unisat [1] is one I have used. You can use it to store Bitcoin and ordinals, it's open source too.

Why?

Web wallets are the most vulnerable wallets that you can see today. Do not use any of them.

For small amount of coins, you can use Electrum, Sparrow or Bluewallet.

For large amount, you can use a hardware wallet like Passport if you do not have a device to setup a wallet on an airgapped device. Or you can go for a multisig wallet.

Why does it need to be a web wallet? If you just want convenience, then just go for a software wallet like BlueWallet. Web wallets are unnecessary; it was just the trend back then because software wallets weren't that good compared to today.

I don't understand why it's a must for you to use web/online wallet in the first place?

I guess you're looking a non custodial wallet e.g. electrum, bluewallet, samourai, etc. I suggest to use electrum because it support desktop and many operating system, while the other mostly only support mac.
