Title: ETH wallet
Post by: CryptoFlare on December 25, 2016, 04:03:27 AM
Well I am to mine etherium and also to buy some .. But recent of DAO attack of ether led me to think twice of it. I want a wallet that provides security to my ETH. But couldn't find any one. :( please suggest me a wallet for long term storing of Etherium and that provides the best security.

DAO attack has nothing to do with your wallet security. If you want wallet security, keep the wallet on your own machine, encrypt it, and backup it. Don't use online wallet. We've been hearing so many incidents regarding online wallets.

in most cases i've seen, the problem weren't the service but the user.
people use weak password, infected computers, dont store the privkey in a safeplace and, when the hack happens, "the problem were the wallet".

if you're not careful, doest matter if it online or not, you will be hacked eventually.

Well in my experience when use ETH wallet, I have used jaxx.io check on here https://jaxx.io
It is safe in my experience, I don't get anu problem when using it, and not only ETH we also put other altcoins are like LTC, DASH,ZCash, augur, Dao and bitcoin on one application.
