better wallet

[hahay]

What is a better wallet, nova exchange or cryptopia. They look like the same but I was wondering who is faster in transferring ..

lol, I never used those two exchanges, well if I see the feedback they get, I think the two exchanges are not much different, so I guess you're free to use both. Btw, both are not a wallet but an exchange.

Keeping funds in the exchange site wallet is not adviceable and you will have risk to loose your fund by the attack time of hackers. Most of the time hackers points the exchange site and hash rental site grab the bitcoin.
This is because of online wallets site private key has been shared so try to transfer your fund from the exchange to the desktop wallet or hardware wallet.

Both nova exchange and cryptopia is an exchanger and it's not a wallet like blockchain. It's not recommend to stored your coins on exchanger. It's better to create your own wallet on blockchain for bitcoin and myetherwallet for altcoin. Who's faster in transferring on both nova exchange or cryptopia usually in 15minutes, it's not included the confirmation.

all of them no one is a wallet.they just an exchange platform. fitst you need to know which one wallet and which one is exchange platform. block-chain is a good wallet.

You are talking about exchanges and not the wallet. Exchanges are different from wallet where the coins are traded for dollars and wallets are used for storing those particular coins.I normally use Zebpay for wallet services as they offer good buying and selling price with zebpay to zebpay users charges are free and they are working pretty good in our Indian country with good customer care service from them.Apart from that you can also use hardware wallets like Trezor, Ledger Nano S.

If you need a wallet that you can save your bitcoin safely in a long-term savings or investment, i can suggest you to use a hardware wallet. This is the safest wallet that you may use for a long-term saving.

First : Both cryptopia and nova exchange are not web wallet and you shouldn't trust any of such exchange with your coins. Both of them are also comparatively small trading platform.

Second : Web wallets and exchanges are not true bitcoin wallet so you shouldn't trust them with blind eyes.

If you are looking for multicoin wallet than use exodus, jaxx and if you want SPV wallets for bitcoin only than electrum is best as hot wallet. For cold storage use ledger, trezor like hardware wallet.

These are not wallets, they are exchanges.

Wallet is where you save your funds, like a real wallet. Exchange is where you trading your coins. Never leave your funds on exchanges, they are not properly safe.

The OP is confused in the mean time. Yeah you're right about the differences between those two. There's still some trusted exchanges though even if it is that trusted sometimes they also purge those unused money and thats not good.

You probably know now the differences between exchangers and wallets.
Novaexchange and cryptopia are/were both excellent exchangers. Unfortunately novaexchange is closing. But I think, also cryptopia is a very good exchanger with awesome features and many infos. If you are looking for a wallet, you will find here good infos.

I use an offline wallet (myetherwallet), as they say.

Recently many online platform got hacked 

Hacked or ran away with their user's money

Anyway, OP would be better to use Electrum instead, maybe Bitcoin Core if he has the bandwith to download all the data.
Keep the private key and seed safe, nothing can steal your coins now, unless your PC has virus, which in this case is in user's blame.

Nova or cryptopia both is not a wallet. It's an exchange and it's bad practice to use an exchange as wallet. Because you should never keep your coins on an exchange. It's dangerous and stupid. Get a hardware or paper wallet, again not a good idea to keep funds on an exchange.

I'll not point it out that they are exchanges as it was mentioned by others here.

Nah, it wasn't hacked. You guys were just victims of a phishing link and that's the problem from these people who complains the wallet was hacked but they never admit they fall for a phishing link.

I fall on that once and I know how it is, now I check the link twice before I type my username and pass, we need to get burned to know what fire is.
Even after so many threads about not keeping money on exchangers people still do it, after so many warnings about phishing links people still don't pay attention. They will learn when they lose money, I had luck and I didn't lost nothing but I learned good how to be keep myself from trouble.

Hmm, well said. It's common sense something else talking towards any object.

Its not a wallet. Use Ledger or Trezor any hardware wallet whenever possible. Or If you want, you can use Coinbase. I heard that they have insurance on your crypto's stored in their platform. Coinbase is also fairly safe even I'm using about a long time.

If you are going to hold it for the long term then holding the funds online on any web wallet or exchange is not recommended because there is a possibility of the data compromisation on the server side even if you are taking all the security precautions for your account. You can use a simple paper wallet or Trezor wallet along with the backup for the same if you are concerned about the safety of your funds.

To say simply your answer they will be able to access your wallet private key to the wallet provider. So be secured hardware wallet are best option to hold the bitcoins but cost will be bear from your side.
Desktop wallet like electrum, bitcoin core and all will be best one to have the bitcoin which is been secured as of now. Moreover there is no complaints about the desk top wallet like hacking and loosing the fund and all. Expect the loose the private key.

Honestly online exchange at the worst place to keep your money because they can get hack anytime I can run away with your money without you noticing about it. On the other hand if you want to download a wallet and you should know that there are two types of wallet light wallet and heavy wallet if you are looking for security then you should choose the heavy wallets they work with lower confirmation and lower fees because they are directly connected to blockchain network on the other hand light wallet has a bit issue on the security but they are quick and effective.

Myetherwallet isn't an exchange nor trading platform but it is a plain web wallet for Ethereum and ERC20 tokens. I'm sorry to know that you've fall for those links, they are everywhere as the price of ethereum, bitcoin and other altcoins are surging so you just need to be aware on it. We can't blame those people that aren't paying attention on it, they are too confident that they won't be hacked.

[bitbunnny]

The advice would be never to use exchangers as wallets. Keep there just the amount of coins that you need for trading and for keeping coins use one of the trusted and user friendly wallet. When choosing wallets stay out from online wallets like blockchain, they have the worst security features and your coins could be exposed. And use multiple wallets, don't keep all funds at just one place.
Combine hard wallet like Trezor and maybe some mobile wallet like Mycelium.

I think what you're asking is what is the better exchange in terms of deposit/withdrawals? Well, I personally would recommend Cryptopia. However, Novaexchange hasn't been bad at all to me in the past either. Either one seems to initiate the withdrawal within minutes of confirming it.

I would prefer the cryptopia also since novaexchange is quitely sketchy for me and I used cryptopia on my trades so no wonder many people are having some good trades with that site also. But he should look for another site which have great volume like binance and other big exchanges so that he can trust more his funds by doing some good trades on them.
