A long time ago ( maybe 6month ago)
my email get hacked, my blockchain get hacked and i lose all of my coin ( because my blockchain password is very weak)
but my small amount at xapo is secure,
xapo have 2fa and 2fa enable 24/7 also 2fa only can acces at mobile network

I think xapo is good option for me

Xapo has also PIN if i am right?, i use xapo too but can't sign message there, but have you tried their bitcoin debit card?

Have just arrived the xapo debit card this week. It's now VISA instead of the previous MasterCard.
I have tried it in two countries in the EU yet and it works OK on POS terminals. If you buy something in different currency (e.g. the card is USD and you pay in EUR) they charge you 3℅ more.

Thanks for notifying us Smiley, maybe visa is more popular and it's used more, and as far as i know mastercard does not support bitcoin, maybe for this

Bitcoin core is the official wallet from the bitcoin community. It's thoroughly checked. But it has the feature of full validation. So it requires lot of initial synchronization and download time. I suggest electrum or multibit HD if you prefer light weight wallets.

Becareful to store amount on web wallet, better to use cold wallet or desktop wallet, Electrum have 2FA security too, multisig wallet, have seed word, and you don't need to download data for synch.

Xapo has also PIN if i am right?, i use xapo too but can't sign message there, but have you tried their bitcoin debit card?

Xapo is web wallet, you can't do sign message, even you can't have your private key.

Yes opting for online wallet must have some special reasons. Like anywhere access. Because desktop wallets are completely in our control. So, think twice before you choose your wallets.

Desktop means only in PC, but coinbase has implemented that their users wallet can work also on web(online) and also in their mobile app(iOS or Android), but not offline Sad . Trezor, chase and ledger are the best hardware wallets.

blockchain.info wallet is secure
but you must choose a very hard password (and only used for your wallet) and you have to change it frequently
also you must use anti keylogger
and of course use 2 factor authentication
and make sure that the connection is sercured with certifecated HTTPS connection

Best,

I'm not really confident in storing my bitcoins on a paper or on my computer. I use a hot wallet for daily spending.

i would never trust another company to hold my keys for me (xapo). i store majority of my coins in a paper wallet and a little amount on my mobile wallet (bither).

A paper wallet generated offline is still the most secure wallet for me. The only thing that you need to worry about is the place on where you will keep your physical paper wallet.

Best,
You're definitely wrong here. Blockchain.info should not in fact be called a safe wallet at all. There were various incidents which resulted in users losing a great sum of money several times due to their negligence.
A hard password would not help at all if they decides to change the code such that it captures your password. This can effectively allow them to steal all the funds from the private keys on their server.
2 factor authentication allows the wallet to be downloaded only when the key is correct. Someone could in theory intercept your wallet when you key in correctly and this wouldn't help at all if there is an inside job or poor RNG.
A common misconception is that HTTPS connections means that it is secure. This is definitely untrue. People were using HTTPS on tor and their wallet still got hacked, it would be more secure if its an onion website. 0-day exploits are also possible with HTTPS, for example, the recent heartbleed which was discovered way long before majority of the sites started patching and people's information might have been stolen long ago.

Everyone is mentioning their favorite wallets, but not technically the "most secure" wallets. By definition, the "most secure" would be a wallet not connected to the internet, so the bitcoins cannot be stolen - which would be an offline wallet. Not a web wallet, desktop wallet, or mobile wallet. All those wallets are of course great, work well, and most are built with security in mind, but aren't the "most secure" way of safekeeping your bitcoins; the best way is offline cold storage. If you want to see how others rank bitcoin wallets, you can see the top ranked bitcoin wallets here: http://bitcoinx.io/wallets/

It's missing a few wallets at least I think.   And also there is hardware wallets.   These (normally) rank between cold wallet and hot wallet.   

They are not as good as the cold or paper wallet.  But far better then most hot wallets, or internet connected wallets.

Good to see Electrum is the first ranking on your site Cheesy

You can add a hardware wallet review too, for reference(LTC guy thread): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=899253.0
