Yes newbies should stay away from any wallet requesting to login using email and password because they are online wallets with no private keys ,if anything happens to that particular company kiss your coins goodbye ,paper wallets which are offline and wallets with passphrase or private keys are the best

it means the meaning of a wallet, I prefer a wallet that has a private key, not an email or password, with private there is no control from anyone except myself and safer than e-mail using passwords

If youre a newbie and entering the crypto wolrd. I doubt that you might get lost along the way cause this simple question can be search on Google. You can find the project interested part of their idea or substance.

Invest while you can, I can feel that the market will go back to its original state.

For those bitcoin related wallet, use only these:

https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

Blockchain.com isn't on the list but I'm also using that wallet. For altcoin related wallets, there's lite wallets from the coin developers itself and hardware wallets who have plenty of alts to support.

the important thing is to be careful in entering the exchanger to avoid phishing because when we will withdraw or deposit, we must enter the private key, if it's phishing then we will definitely lose. to be safer, bookmarking the original site is not phishing.

The problem with private keys is now very common. Newbies do not know how to safely store their private key. and the wallets which do not need private key  - this is a scam i think

To be honest, they will gradually learn how to store their assets safely, just need time and experience. If we give them examples, they might be able to understand, but if they have never made a mistake or carelessness, then they will not be able to study well. Tell what to tell and let them explore how cruel the crypto world is

Yep, newbies actually don't know exactly how these apps work, so they often fall into these traps and lose their money.

Some trusted wallets:
MyEtherWallet
Coinbase
Blockchain
Ledger
And I think that is enough for all cryptocurrencies
You can also connect your hardware wallet to your myetherwallet for extra security better than storing private keys and json file.

metamask is also good for newbies since it blocks harmful websites like phishing websites.

Newbies should start realizing what "wallet" means and when businesses are using the term to fool people into giving up their keys .I got the info on web today about "free wallet" freewallet  is all in one cryptocurrency wallets available on playstore for android devices that doesn't has private keys,please stay away from such wallets ,YOu ARE NOT IN TOTAL CONTROL OF YOUR FUNDS ,if anything happens to freewallet  your fund is gone.

Update: those of you mining through Minergate ,free wallet has become the only source of withdrawing from minergate ,well to me minergate sucks cos of lower hashrates ,if minergate is a must for you then make sure you withdraw your funds to another wallet with privet key after withdrawing from minergate.

Most of free wallets are not giving the features that makes you able to take your privatekey. And then put anything on the wallet that gives you ability to take your privatekey.
Freewallet is untrusted wallet that means it's not a scam but it can't be trusted.

That's why newbies should always stay away from unknown wallet source provider because it can only cause big problems, used only trusted wallet provider like MyEtherWallet.

It sounds trivial, but things like that are often ignored, I personally prefer the wallet issued by the coin itself or their official wallet.
