This is definitely a good news for all of their users who will now pay less fees,and I hope we see such move from others who work with BTC,and especially from big exchanges which are still not using SegWit.I know some wallets like Electrum added support for SegWit recently so that we progress towards to wider use of something what we all waiting for long time. I was interested in their card some time ago and I check their thread sometimes,they are good company that is constantly working on improvement of their services.I see they add Ledger support also.

Sure, they have more responsibility to their customers for security, but they should also have better teams. They're the ones that are handling millions of people everyday (Coinbase and blockchain.info for example). If TREZOR and Ledger can easily manage SegWit implementations (which don't seem to have had any major bugs) very quickly after activation, other services should be able to.

The more wallets that implement segwit the better. I also agree that it makes no sense that coinbase have not yet.... |
