if you want my opinion, i don't like them. they seem to be legit but my problem is not with their legitimacy.
my problem is that you don't have access to your private keys so in any case that they decide to run away or even block your account , all your bitcoins will be lost forever in their hands.
so in final they act like a bitcoin-bank or something similar? if u don't own the private key, you don't own bitcoins you own the bitcoin but you have to rely on them (a third party) to be able to use your bitcoins. which means you don't have complete control that you can have when using for example bitcoin-core. |
Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

They're legit but before they activate your wallet you need to send more documents.

Documents? All I had to do was go through a 1-minute verification. Quick and painless. And if it's the difference between a wallet that stays up and one that crashes and burns (read: you lose everything), it's an obvious choice to me. |

At the moment I'm not dealing with the debit card. With its fees, it's just more efficient to convert to cash -> use a real debit card if that's what people need. |

They also have decently high fees. I just can't justify $2.50 per transaction (IIRC they're 0.01 BTC) when I can get transactions for free from my bank. Not to mention most of my debits are small anyways, so the fee would be a significant part of that. |

iam a beginner and i don't know if xapo.com is good one
I think Coinbase is doing the same thing, and as far as I know coinbase is the better place. anyways they are both online wallets and it is not a good idea to use them. |

I have used it for some time. Works well, although the verification steps to register and to operate are quite annoying, one would to prefer to login more quickly to the wallet. It has a great advantage in which xapo faucets pay you instantly to your wallet, and I think it is also the same when you received transfers from other xapo users. |

i think it is a good company and has value for people who cant keep their coins safe. bitcoin is not for the average joe and the average joe cant store his BTC in a safe and easy way - Xapo Vault is a good product for that.

One good thing about Xapo is the way they use addresses. It adds a layer of privacy you do not get with other wallets.
I'm not a big fan of online wallets but I often make use of my Xapo wallet to receive funds. When its send out to my Trezor from there there is no link to follow as Xapo use different addresses to send funds than the ones on which the funds came in.
Just check the next time you receive and send funds from Xapo. As said, this adds in an extra layer of privacy to the user as its near impossible to track your wallet balance.

since i has very low experience with xapo wallet I don't think all my points are correct but i will advice you to choice between mycelium wallet and blockchain wallet if you are using android..but in the case of destop their are many options but I will recomment bitcoin core or if you want to install a light wallet then electrum is just fine or armory(haven't tryed this till now)

Not sure if I followed this right. Are you saying it's a lot like how casinos work, where they just merge everything into larger wallets and past the original deposit, you have no idea what any specific account holds? |

Xapo.com is good.
Their faucet - see my faucet link in my profile - has great payouts but at least once a week doesn't have enough money in their wallet to payout...it's f*cking annoying. Why can't they have some dust available when one want some dust!?!?

Xapo has no faucet, they only offer a wallet service. Complain to the owner of the faucet if its out of funds. It has nothing to do with Xapo. |
