I'm using blockchain.info and it's convenient for me because I just need to login whenever I want to send bitcoin. And just like what others are saying it's very secure and trusted though I'm experiencing sometimes inconvenience when I'm trying to use it. I like also it's email verification feature that is making me secure if someone wants to have access on my wallet.
I agree with you . I also use blockchain.info as the main wallet at the moment. Blockchain has many features, besides this wallet is also very safe and reliable. Until now there has been no negative news on this online wallet.

Many people here are preferring to use blockchain.info I think it's because it is named 'blockchain' as blockchain technology is used for bitcoin. And many are thinking that this is the real processor of transactions. I haven't read a big complain about them up to now and if there are some complains they are resolving it immediately.

I see many people recommend blockchain.info as a wallet, previously I only used it to check my transaction) I've tried many wallets (particularly with debit cards), guess, it's time to try this one too.

I use all of them pretty much, phone wallet is very convenient for on the go and scanning QR codes, electrum has some nifty tools, full node just cuz "hardcore" etc etc etc etc
I heard about electrum most of the time and it has good feedback by the users but now I am not using it yet. I have my wallet in local
exchange where I cash out my money and it's very convenient in my side since I regularly cash out from my income online.
'
Im kind of amazed that you are a senior member, and you are actually using the wallet that is provided by some exchange, even the local one.
As you should already know, rule number one in storing your bitcoins is to have access to private keys. If you don't have this access, then it is not a secure wallet.

I highly recommend for you to switch to the electrum instead of using that exchange wallet, your bitcoins will be surely secured and also you can always import/export your privkeys.
You cannot predict if this local cryptocurrency exchange won't have any issues, such as website being suspended, or anything else. if you have privkey, you at least can retrieve your bitcoins while the website is offline.
But if you don't, then site being offline simply means that you cannot even get them back.

You shouldn't be considering using Blockchain.info Web wallet because There's nothing unique about Blockchain.info wallet. Aside from the high and insane fees they charge for "transaction fees" , It's just like every other web wallet.

No doubt that bitcoin official wallet (blockchain) is better then any other .
I am also using the blockchain wallet Android app .
Here I am thinking that online wallet is more secure then any other ways with internet data .
Here in the blockchain app we have the facility of the custom fee to pay for the transaction , so no doubt that blockchainia only the king of all the wallet .
Beside the blockchain paper wallet is also a best option , but according to my recuirments blockchain is best  for me .

You need to be very careful while using blockchain.info. The safety of your coins is in your hand. If you forget your password, or if you lose the access to your wallet somehow, then no one will be able to help you. Your coins will be lost forever. So make regular backups, and write down your password in some secure location, if you are using blockchain.info.

You scared me. This wallet is unreliable? I do not know how to make backup copies. I guess I'll just start using other wallets. But I liked the blockchain.info. He is probably the most popular purse for bitcoins among beginners

I just use simple wallet web wallet are enough for me to store by bitcoins there it can't be stolen by anyone unless the ceo or the creator of blockchain will fool as all or maybe blockchain will be hacked again. Also im using based wallet where i can cashout all bitcoins that i have that fast with in 8 hours thru bank account.

i think so. i'm also use web wallet.
But If the wallet is KYC stated, pls check if u do grey area like gambling , dark market etc. Example: Coinbase
The company will suddenly close your a/c and if u do anything bad which disclose, they will give out your information also.

This is why im using blockchain for gambling activity i don't want to closed my account for this illegal thing that they know. I don't want also to be involved my personal information for mislanding information tho.

Bitcoin wallets that allow people to have the whole Blockchain downloaded on their computers makes me feel kind of weird because that would mean the wait for spending Bitcoin will require a whole bunch of patience and that is just something that Bitcoin shouldn't need to have.
I prefer to use Bitcoin wallets that are online (Bitcoin Exchanges) and not from Blockchain.info because using it online feels the same as having it on the computer without downloading the whole Blockchain on the computer.

Don't you think that its an big risk to store your bitcoins on exchange sites as you never know when that site can disappear and if it does then you will loose all your bitcoins at one point so the best place to store your bitcoins is in offline wallet where you have total control on your bitcoins.

Exchange is different from those web wallet providers and I don't think that they are secured although it's up to you on how you trust them.

Currently, I'm using also blockchain.info just like what others are using this is the best for me right now.

And if ever I'll see some other wallets that are better , I'll try them too.

I keep my bitcoins safe in my electrum wallet as I think that is the best wallet to store your bitcoins at a moment and whenever I have to sell my bitcoins I transfer it to my localbitcoins wallet so that I can get fiat in my bank account.

I mostly use paper wallets to store my bitcoins because I believe they are safer. I don't trust online exchanges or web wallets with my coins.
