Why Eden when there are only a few coins more than on the normal Exodus Wallet?
The Homepage says:
Important items to remember about Eden
We recommend Eden for advanced users only. Normal Exodus users SHOULD NOT USE Eden.
Eden is unsupported, pre-release software - things are likely to break.
Support for Eden will be provided by the community and our public Slack channel.
This page on our website is purposefully hidden. Don't give this to your neub friends as you will likely get stuck doing tech-support for them when things don't work properly.
To be clear, the Exodus customer support team will not be able to help if you experience any problems with Eden.
No good Idea... You don´t know who is reading your post.... Newbies can lost all your coins with this wallet....

Try Exodus Eden for all of your altcoin needs. That version of Exodus has more support for tokens but no customer support since it is "unsupported" tokens. I seriously hope they bring 2 factor authentication soon to Exodus desktop though. Then, they can work on a mobile wallet!
Use the wallet since a half year. Love it 
With the Nanoledger i can handle My coins in 2 wallets

hmm in wat language is exodus wallet written ?
does exodus store waves?
No.. Theres no waves on exodus..
This is my favourite wallet. Its expensive but worth it..
I noticed there have been some issues over at Shapeshift https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.25271057
As Exodus uses Shapeshift i'm a tad concerned as a holder of coins in Ex.
A need to be concerned?
You can manually send your coins to an exchange and trade them to other assets.
Thanks for response, much appreciated.

... where i can import my private key and seeds to access my assets ?
Into any compatible wallet... so you go get a BTC wallet, a BCH wallet, a BTG wallet, an ETH wallet, a DOGE wallet, a LTC wallet, a XXX wallet... you get the idea...If you're lucky, there will be another multi currency wallet (like Coinomi) that will take your private keys/seed and give you access to your "assets". I honestly don't know if Coinomi works with Exodus seeds... there is a good chance it will, but I've not tested it.
If you're THAT concerned about it, then I would suggest that you start testing a few different recovery options NOW, before you go too far down this road.

Exodus don't hold your private keys... you do. You have your 12 word backup seed. This is BIP39/44 compatible and easily portable to any other compatible wallet. As far as I'm aware, your seed/private keys are only stored on your local device. Exodus have NO access to this, so there is no way for Exodus to "exit" scam.
Unless they've filled their software with backdoors that allow them access to your keys... but you can just check the source code to see if tha... oh... wait.

There will be no problem as you control your private keys. You can import your coins into a new wallet.
Please some one correct me if I am wrong.

Hi all.
I'm look to store my bitcoins and ethers on a desktop wallet (until I get my hardware wallet sometime this fall), and Exodus looks like a good match for my needs.
What is the cryptocurrency community opinion on how safe this wallet is (as long as I keep my desktop safe of course)?

yes it is very safe already my friends using this one so you have to try once and keep hold it long time. it keeps our coin more safe and secure generally more people does not believing it is safe. but you try to buy and keep your coin in to this wallets. it is really good validated form.
Does anyone know if Exodus is planning on a mobile wallet?
I don't think it is planned at the moment. They are focusing on other things. See the roadmap (support.exodus.io/article/96-exodus-wallet-roadmap) for details.

Make sure to use offline (cold storage) wallet if possible. For example, electrum for bitcoin BTC lets you create keys on a computer that is not connected to the internet.
Make sure to validate any files you download online with few sources including elctrum. You can do hash checks md5s etc.

To my knowledge they are closed source.
I don't trust anything closed source, not necessarily because I think they bad, but because undisclosed code is pretty much always more vulnerable, since less people are working on it, and inspecting it.
If you want a really good vetted and audited software, go open source. That includes open source OS too like Linux.

What altcoin do they have support for - doge ,ltc , dash?
You can store, and also exchange following coins directly in the wallet: Aragon, Augur, Bitcoin, Dash, Decred, EOS, Ethereum, Golem and Litecoin.
Changing coins in Exodus is done via Shapeshift, correct? Are Shapeshift's fees high or reasonable?
They are decently reasonable for their convenience. I turned 3k from LTC into Golem and it charged about $90 I believe.

Beware of extraorbitant transaction fees though if you use Exodus to receive lots of small transactions (from mining, for instance).
So Exodus earn money off fees from transactions to or from the wallet?
I saw on their website that they actually don't. I'm puzzled as to how they make their money then. They are surely not providing this software for free.

Is in their website at the bottom of the front page."Exodus currently supports Aragon, Augur, Bitcoin, Decred, Dash, EOS, Ethereum, Golem, and Litecoin."
I can say that Exodus is good wallet. This wallet is built in ShapeShift exchange, but differently from other wallets, Exodus gives control of your private keys, what is important benefit of this service. And now it's hard to find bad reviews from their users.
I really can recommend to use Exodus wallet.

I've been using it for a while, it's very good if you are using altcoins in addition to BTC, not sure about the security details but as far as I understand it require some trust in an intermediate party (without access to your private keys of course) in a similar way to Electrum.
I am using both electrum and exodus in 2 different computers from quite some time now and both are quality wallets. Trusting them is an issue but their service is good with Bitcoins as well as altcoins.
They have a pretty good reputation, but the coding is not open source, so you have to decide for yourself if you trust them or not.

Yes it's safe. I've been using for my altcoins and IMO is the best multi-assets wallet for desktop you can get today.
And they allow you to control and export your private keys. The first feature that you should look at every wallet you want to use.
