Shapeshift and Wallet Fees

[Zabulus]

Right now I hold my funds on block.io

So when we do transfers to users (For various redeems and payments), I get hit with a small fee on shapeshift.io

Then I transfer the funds OUT of block.io (Which I get hit with a larger fee).

So the question.. Can someone recommend a good wallet to hold LTC funds with no fees so I can eliminate the block.io fees. I know I will get the shapeshift fees, but I do a ton of transfers a day.




Is exodus.io a good wallet for this AND can I automatically do transfers with this like I do with block.io?

You ask for a wallet that can control its fees and be low fee properly? correct?.
I do not have any information about "block.io" so I can not help you but the best alternative would be

• Litecoin Core: official Litecoin wallet and controlled fee [its the solution to your problem but it takes a long time in sync due to download the entire blockchain] .
• Exodus:(Desktop Wallet) multi-currency desktop wallet, ease of use and has an inbuilt ShapeShift converter. [The wallet chooses the fees and you can’t control the fees.]
• Ledger Nano S  & Trezor [Hardware Wallet]

it’s better to download Litecoin Core and wait for sync.

I never used block.io but AFAIK, those fees are "network fees". Eliminating those will result in having a stuck transaction.

Few other options:

1. Coinomi
2. Jaxx (don't use, read the next post).
3. Electrum-LTC (I haven't tried it yet but according to this post, that's the correct link, make sure to verify it)

I'm an Exodus user myself and it's actually known for its excessive fees, so it's a bad option (for you).

Update:

As far as Jaxx though, it was reported that another vulnerabilities has been found (https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180227005647/en/Cheetah-Mobile-Blockchain-Research-Lab-Issues-Security). So just be careful.

Thank you for that, I crossed it from my list.

I'm also a Exodus wallet user myself and its really good to used to hold your altcoins. But as what has @SFR10 that fees is exaggerated. What I do though is to manually used other exchange like (https://changelly.com/) instead of the built-in shapeshift in Exodus. As far as Jaxx though, it was reported that another vulnerabilities has been found (https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180227005647/en/Cheetah-Mobile-Blockchain-Research-Lab-Issues-Security). So just be careful.
