It seems a lot of people are having problems accessing mymonero.com today, there is another thread with a potential suggested solution I think, but the moral of story is... never use online wallets, it's a gamble, one day you wake up and the damn wallet doesnt work. What's the point of crypto if you depend on a website again.

Web wallets are better than exchanges since you are largely in control of your own keys, but aren't as reliable or secure as running your own node. Instructions above for how to import your keys into a different wallet.

Web wallets are good because you are in control of your keys ?

hmm who knew ? I guess you learn something new everyday  Cheesy

Use the tool at https://xmr.llcoins.net/addresstests.html insert the 13 word seed, then generate view and spend keys -> recover from the CLI wallet

If you need detailed instructions on how to recover into the cli wallet browse this entire thread on r/monero

Remember you need to let the official wallet sync first takes about a day to download the monero blockchain

I think that's a bit below the belt.

I've got a tiny amount of XMR on mymonero.com - just tried https://xmr.llcoins.net/addresstests.html and I had no problem creating a new wallet using the 13 word recovery.

If you have a lot of funds on mymonero.com and don't want to trust a website with your keys (understandable) then here's another option. Yes, you need some minor linux skills.

Sorry to bring up such an old topic.
But is mymonero. com recommended? Do you know other online wallets?

I don't have an xmr there yet but I have mine and soon I should transfer xmr there, so my concerns.

If you have the storage space and bandwidth, it's better to run the full GUI wallet from the main website - getmonero.org. Mymonero should really only be used for spending money.
