I'm using xapo, is xapo ok for gambling site?

[autumnraynefyr]

Personally, I used Electrum for BTC. It is a compact installation and does not need to download the blockchain (as with bitcoin is huge now after many years of transactions  ). It connects through the blockchain via remote connection to a blockchain explorer. In my experiences, its very easy and very quick to use. And as long as you secure your wallet code, which is a string of words unique to your wallet, it is very forgiving, should you forget your encryption key, all you have to do is create a "new" wallet using your original wallet code and you have your wallet back sans encryption code. That is why it is extremely important to secure your code, as anyone with it can do the same thing.   

However, I do use other wallets besides Electrum. I have a xapo wallet, however, in my experiences is only really good for things like faucets and gambling where they offer direct pay and/or bonues for using a xapo wallet. There is multiple layers of passwords and confirmations that can sometimes make it a hassle to access your coin quickly. I usually end up flushing my xapo wallet into my electrum wallet every few weeks so that I have better access to my coin.

As bitcoin has its own protocol, so it just need to be with internet to access wallet for bitcoins.

Already there are mainly four types of wallets are present as

1) App wallet
2) Desktop wallet
3) Hardware wallet
4) Web wallet

Its up to user to choose most convenient wallet for there needs.
And also have to take all precautions and security majors for wallet whichever you choose.

Addition level of security can enhance wallet sustainability.

I'm already use blockchain over a year and It almost never have any problem since I'm using it ( except they are down for some maintenance)
They are easy to use and simple interface so you will learn fast eventhough you're new using blockchain

The most definitive post on Bitcoin Wallets

We have reviewed a number of Bitcoin wallets from our experience are best to use. This is based solely on our opinion and we also welcome the opinions of others. Anyone can post suggestions and questions. We are here to answer.

It's really a good idea to keep users of Bitcoin informed of the best Bitcoin wallets.
I propose Xapo, which is a good wallet that has no transaction fees, but lacks a bit of security, but that does not have good security, because the Bitcoin wallet user has no access to private keys.

What Bitcoin wallets are best to use?

That depends on the user. You could make a flow diagram for this decision.

Do you trust your mobile phone?   (No -> no mobile wallet)
Do you want to pay for your wallet?  (No -> no hardware wallet)
Do you want privacy? (Yes -> no mobile wallet, no web wallet)
Are you tech savy? (No -> use a simple wallet)
Does your computer crash every year/month/week? (Yes -> dont use desktop wallet)
Did your phone break due to accidents (water, drop) in the past? (Yes -> don use mobile wallet)

I suggest xapo bcoz i use it a year but until now i never experience to delay all transaction.xapo is free transaction but lacks a bit of security, but that does not have good security, because the Bitcoin wallet user has no access to private key. I have 2 wallets xapo and coins.ph. If i want to cash out my bitcoin i will transfer it from xapo to coins.ph.

I am using blockchain.info, pretty satisfied for now 

[tampazeus]

I am using mutibit wallet and I think its very safe and trustworthy and whenever I need to sell my coins I transfer it to my localbitcoins wallet.

[Goms]

Is the electrum wallet free or paid?

[Shibashi Dogemoto]

The day I entered into bitcoin I am using only blockchain.info wallets as I felt that its security features are too good and not easy for anyone to steal your coins.

Blockchain.info is one the most used bitcoin wallet and at times it is best to use the one that most people use because it means they are well trusted.

[pearl11]

For me coins.ph is my first pick, the reason is im from philippines.
Second is coinbase which can give you 4 wallets in an instant.

It should be noted that it should be treated like a hot wallet, you don't want to keep all your BTC in a service like this.  Although I will agree they are one of the most popular wallets, and have a good history.  But one bad event could change that.  I think you would be much better off with hardware wallet/paper wallet/etc if storing a decent amount.

The only online wallet that is a little different I can think of is Coinbase.  They hold a insurance policy ( https://support.coinbase.com/customer/portal/articles/1662379-how-is-coinbase-insured- ).   Most online hot wallets do not have this, still would be careful storing large quantity of coins.

The first time I go into bitcoin, I always use blockchain.info, especially now blockchain.info has a great look and features. and just add google authenticator to add security

I think there is no bitcoin wallet guaranteed 100% safe and will not deceive us. In my view all of wallet risky scam, if you want 100% safe create your own wallet to make your own network: D

But the best use for the wallet, in my opinion blockchains.info and Coinbase. Because until now I still use their services. Just a suggestion do not ever leave your large funds in just one wallet providers. to reduce the risk of things we do not want.

I think the problem from bitcoin core is malware dude, so thats not 100% right for offline wallet. Bitcoin core is good but I do not like when it takes up a large enough memory. This time alone has reached 65 GB
