Hi all,
We would love to hear your views on the different wallets out there. PLEASE check out our website here:
https://www.cryptowisser.com/wallets/ where we list 130+ wallets. The current favorites from the users seem to be:
- Ledger Wallet;
- Xapo Wallet;
- Omni Wallet; and
- Enjin Wallet.
Do you agree with that toplist?
Looking forward to hearing what you think!
All the best,
Cryptowisser
It seems that in this case Favorites ≠ Safest.
- Ledger S nano wallet is indeed fairly safe, especially when you keep it airgapped. I'd say it has a fair spot on your list, comparing it to the other wallets.
- Xapo wallet, I'll sum up what's wrong. You have no control over your keys when storing them here. XAPO can run off with all your bitcoin anytime they want.
Private keys to Xapo accounts are never given out to anyone - they are kept in a safe place for you. Xapo keeps most of your bitcoins in deep-cold storage, in offline servers that have never been online and will never be online. We have a process to move coins out of deep-cold storage once a day without ever exposing the private keys to the Internet. Xapo makes sure that private keys are never on your phone or your computer; private key security is always in our hands and if someone were to hack your device, they could never get your private keys because they are not there.
Furthermore, correct me if i'm wrong, they process your withdrawals, like an exchange does. (unlike blockchain.info, where you still can control a little bit when and how you want to withdraw)
- Omni Wallet, Looks confusing, it seems like both parties here have access to your private key, (You, and omni), although there's not much information available about it.
https://www.cryptocompare.com/wallets/omniwallet/ states that you actually have no access at all to your keys, but this is refuted on the web page of the wallet itself. I'm slightly confused.
-Enjin wallet, Seems like a decent wallet, Looks like enjin themselves have no access to your private keys,
The Enjin Smart Wallet is engineered with military grade security. Your Private Keys and Recovery Phrases are stored only on your device using AES 256 encryption and never transmitted.
You can use your Recovery Phrase essentially as your Private Key as it allows you to fully own the wallet and the funds inside it. You can use it to import your wallet address into other software wallets and devices.
We do not store your keys on our servers.
Looks like they also support a decent amount of ERC20 tokens for a mobile wallet.
