RE: 🔥👛 The TOP 5 BEST ALTCOIN wallets: an overview 👛🔥

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

I use exodus now and I'm pretty happy with it. I wish they'd add more currencies as well. I e-mailed them and they are going to add a few more in the future: Roadmap

I was going to use Jaxx instead but it was recently hacked so I decided against it. I wish I could use Coinomi! My friends all use it but I don't have an android.

Sort:  

The recent "hack" against jaxx was just users using the wallet on an unprotected network. The wallet file jaxx creates isn't encrypted, so when somebody gets access to that file, it's game over. Exodus does this much better, theyre just not completely open source, and have no mobile client. Thanks for your comment, if you like this kind of stuff, make sure to follow me man!

That is just not true. JAXX is by design (confirmed by dev) is to be used only for storing small amounts that you're ok to loose. Access to the wallet is wide open. No passwords, no encryption, nothing

Question about Exodus: If you have it on your desktop, what happens if your computer crashes or you need to bring it in for service/upgrades? I have an old macbook that needs a few upgrades, and the last thing I want to do is put coins on a desktop, and then have them compromised?

As long as you have your security code written down on paper (the string or random words), you can access your wallet.
