Topic: Warning: Jaxx Wallet (Read 8090 times)
Anyone using Jaxx Liberty? After sync with old Jaxx wallet, due to no exchange available in that one, it seems, no exchange option in this wallet either.
Has anybody found a way to restore the old adresses (that keep getting switched) - in Jaxx or other app?
Wow someone dug up a 6 month old post, my guess is they used search 
On the topic of Jaxx, I quit using it entirely.
There are some alt coins I temporarily hold in Coinomi until I move them off to a dedicated or hard wallet.
in the case of Coinomi, so far I haven't had any major issues but I'm sure it's not free from issues.
To date the only issue I've had with Coinomi is the intermittent connectivity to specific wallets on occasion. If I needed to move a coin quickly it would have been a problem but since I use it for temporary holding it really hasn't been a problem.
As others have indicated, use a dedicated wallet or a hard wallet where possible.

Jaxx wallet is just awful. I never kept much in my wallet but at one time I had about .011 btc and I checked on it in the morning and it was 0 balance with an "incoming" transaction of "0" but a mining fee of .011. This transaction happened at about 4:00 AM while I was sleeping. I opened a support ticket and they were no help at all.
I just don't use the wallet anymore.

The response from the Jaxx team is flat out disgusting.
Over $400K stolen from poor security on their code where anyone with access to that pc can snatch up the backup phrase and steal the funds, and they think nothing is wrong with it.
Whats more the backup phrase is not encrypted with a password so if they get the backup..your screwed.

It seems that all the security relays on physical protection. Scary.
Owner jaxx said "used for own risk".
I recently started mining again and decided to use the Jaxx mobile wallet for payouts.
Payouts from Nicehash to Jaxx (ETC) dont work, not for me anyway.
So i had to change adresses and now have some funds that i cant get paid for..
Nicehash cant change adresses or transfer funds between accounts just for notice.
So dont waste time and electricity with Jazz hazzle.

i'm having troubles too with the JAXX wallet on either the desktop version, chrome extensions and the mobile app for ETC. i cannot send any balances out of jaxx and transactions kept failing. I'm considering to export my wallet to another wallet, is it safe to do this? any recommendation on what wallet to choose from? EXODUS? COINOIMI? JAXX support really sucks and ignorant! somebody please help........ 
Good information. One needs to be watchful i think.
don't use this anymore
I've been mining ETH for months now and my payment wallet has always been a Jaxx created one. Now i'm not specifically using Jaxx anymore because it almost never syncs my wallet balance on the first try. What I did was export all my private keys individually and used online wallets like MEW or blockchain.info. Jaxx is safe to use, but it hardly ever works when you need it to.
I used it before as my mining wallet, but 1 out of 10 rewards never came into that wallet. Its compeletly trash. 0/10 would not recomend.
Just use the Dev made wallets.
Jaxx wallet is safe to use but some of the ICO token sale is not accepting jaxx wallet address.

I recently started messing with Jaxx wallet for a couple of alt coins and noticed today that one of the instances of the wallet, specifically the chrome plugin, quit updating the Zcash wallet after an extension update on May 25th.
I can still access the wallet from the desktop application and by other methods but I figured I would open a support case with Jaxx regarding the chrome issue since uninstalling/deleting the plugin/resetting the cache had no effect on my system. I did some reading online and found other people with similar issues that appeared to have self resolved over time while others indicated they had to contact support.
So contact support I did and here is the canned message I got
Notice that part in bold... all I can say is "Wow" when I read that piece. Jaxx is very up front about this in their support case canned e-mail but no where on their website do they say "Hey miners, don't use our wallets"
Thought I would pass this info on as a warning to those out there using this platform for mining payouts.

Looks like using a mainstream wallet is too dangerous nowdays
What the ...
Dont use lightweight wallets. its just pure stupid, its not your wallet.
i mine zcash to jaxx and have no issues. i do have an issue trying to send the payment out from the jaxx walllet it, goes through the process, and disappears from the jaxx wallet, but i check the blockchain address and still there. tried about 6 times no joy. any ideas?
I read the thing about 12-word passphrases being hackable and decided to move my stuff to Exodus.
In the process of that I had and am still having an issue moving GNT.
Exodus was incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, the problem is not there. It must be with the Jaxx wallet. But, it is impossible to get a coherent reply from the Jaxx support. It is hugely frustrating.
I am not a deeply experienced techie. I have just learned what I need to know to cyber-function. I depend on tech support to guide me through fixes and I am really disappointed that some of the developers of these crypto products are so loathe to help their customers.
The other frustrating thing is that something can come very highly recommended by someone who has not used the *thing* very much. So, you can find out some deal-killing weakness after you have moved your cryptos there and it can become impossible to get them back.
With the price rise, the sense of urgency to put these increasingly valuable cryptos in a safe place will cause lame decisions to be made. It is only through the efforts of people on forums like this and good tech support that even allows people like me to dabble.
Jaxx Wallet support is part of the problem, IMO.

Exodus seems like a good wallet, only negative is the single address.
Anyway moving your GNT is simple
extract your eth private key from jaxx that has the gnt balance, you can do this by going into Menu > tools > display private keys
go here https://www.myetherwallet.com/#send-transaction
use the private key to get in and send your gnt to your new eth/gnt address in Exodus

My biggest issue with Jaxx right now is if you are a new user looking for a wallet, no where on their website do they indicate these stances, lack of support for miners, etc. It's once people start using the product do they learn they don't seem to give a rats ass about miners or people with legitimate security concerns.
If they put a statement on their main page or in the form a disclaimer before download, people with concerns wouldn't use their product.
Moral of the story: They are taking advantage of people new to crypto that don't know any better.

Quote
According to a report from Vx Labs, a vulnerability that allows hackers to steal cryptocurrencies from users has been discovered in popular cross-platform cryptocurrency wallet Jaxx, and has reportedly already led to $400,000 being stolen.
The report, published on Friday, shows its possible for hackers to extract a 12-word backup phrase, copy it, and then use it to restore the user’s wallet with all the private keys in it, so then all that’s left to do is transfer the funds to a wallet the hacker’s wallet.
The report reads:
Even when your Jaxx has a security PIN configured, anyone with 20 seconds of (network) access to your PC can extract your 12 word backup phrase and copy it down. Jaxx does not have to be running for this to happen.
Monero developer Riccardo “FluffyPony” Spagni tweeted about the report, presumably so something could be done about the vulnerability now that it was public, but nothing was done before users started reporting lost funds, as hackers took advantage of the vulnerability.
An update published on Altcoin Trading shows that users have already reported losing as much as $400,000 in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, and Zcash. Users who only use Jaxx on their smartphones are reportedly safe, although those who use desktop versions of the wallet may be at risk.
Jaxx on Security
On Reddit, Jaxx & Decentral CTO Nilang Vyas stated that Jaxx is a hot wallet in which users shouldn’t keep large amounts, and that they believe to have found a balance between easy-of-use, security, and portability.
The CTO asked users not to use Jaxx if they are not comfortable with its security model, stating:
Please please please, if you do not feel comfortable with our security model do not use our products. We’re are creating for the masses a multi-platform, multi-coin interface for the blockchain ecosystem where users are in full control of their digital lives.
According to the post, the team behind Jaxx is “very comfortable” with its security model for hot wallets, and recommends users store large amounts of funds in hardware wallets. At the end of the post, he pointed out that in the future users will be able to secure their wallets using Trezor, Ledger, and Jaxx hardware wallets.
Based on the Nilang’s response, Vx Labs recommends users stay away from Jaxx if it does not fix the vulnerability.

Here's the reply I got from Jaxx Support, secondary confirmation of what was already posted at this point.
I like the fact I can see my address history and create new addresses on demand with the standalone wallets so I'm going to move all my alts off of Jaxx until there is a time where they offer more features and support miners.

Looks like this issue is what was affecting my ZEC wallet syncing yesterday.
...one thing sticks out here, 3rd party service? I'm guessing they don't host the wallets themselves.

I used jaxx for months Eth mining but after awhile my wallet had so many transactions that the Android wallet couldn't load so I contacted support and they said not to mine to my wallet and the best way to fix it was to create a new wallet and send my all my coins from old to new but as of now I've been using freewallet and they are good with a lot of features and are adding many more in the next few months
There are a lot of things I like about Jaxx and I want to continue to use their service but for me if they aren't clearly going to support payouts of one type or another, it brings into question their reliability in service for me.
Right now I'm on the fence about this and will likely be moving the few alts I have with them off their service to local storage.

Hey.. thank you very much for this info.
It will certainly save me many headaches!
This is not an isolated issue only with JAxx as i have has others with the same.
Thank you.

I just switched from Jaxx to Coinomi there are a few little things that I'm not happy about Jaxx it's nothing huge but like the 4 digit pin not showing up when I send every time bothers me. Also I don't get a total and the navigation is so tiny and it's slow to see what I have where on coinomi i can see in seconds so I switched but Jaxx holds huge promise with a few tweaks and I will probably use as backup wallet for now.
Been using Jaxx for a while now on ETC side and haven't experienced issues either but a few google searches tonight has shown me some insight into the people that have.
I'm going to look into Zcash4win on the Zcash side and the Standalone ETC wallet for Win64.
One thing I can't seem to find a straight answer to is you can't see your history of addresses in Jaxx even though it seems to change your address periodically.
On a side note, their support form I filled out today had the drop down option to open a case was "Wallet Stuck Syncing"
That being said, while typing this my Chrome extension finally started working after near 5 minutes of sitting at "initializing" -- I have tried for more than 30 minutes at multiple intervals today.
The wallet is now showing correct and recent payouts.

Don't worry about it, I have used jaxx wallet for my mining payments for Months without issue.
Exchanges will says things like this as well.
The reason is that they think some miners will receive dust payments and a bunch of tiny payments could mess with their system potentially. So Don't send dust
A miner payment is nothing special, it is the same as any other payment.

FWIW... I use a jaxx address for both ethermine and ethpool payout addresses. Works fine for months.
That was really supprising I just start using their app. Thanks for the information.
I haven't really experienced any of these issues in regards to ethereum classic as I have been able to deposit and send without any issues at all.

So contact support I did and here is the canned message I got
Notice that part in bold... all I can say is "Wow" when I read that piece. Jaxx is very up front about this in their support case canned e-mail but no where on their website do they say "Hey miners, don't use our wallets"
Thought I would pass this info on as a warning to those out there using this platform for mining payouts.
