I wanted to create Bitcoin wallet but I saw there are a lot of websites or software to create it. It's not like paypal. I am thinking to chose Blockchain. Is it good? How to check if it's legal in my country?

I wouldn't recommend Jaxx wallet since, several weeks ago, it was found exploitable, giving an attacker the possibility to retrive your 12 words seed . Usually, you choose a service that gives you the full control and ownership of keys. Blockchain.info doesn't give you this option. Some service I would recommend are GreenAddress and Samurai Wallet.

I am using Jaxx! I think it is good, because is platform agnostic and handle different digital currencies.

  • Jaxx had security issues just weeks ago and they shrugged them off stating that they're satisfied with their security concept. See e.g.: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/users-report-losing-400000-due-to-jaxx-wallet-vulnerability/ I don't think they're a good recommendation at this time. – Murch Jul 02 '17 at 14:20
  • Good to know. @Murch – m3_stackoverflow Jul 02 '17 at 16:20
  • @Murch what could be the best option, into the security perspective? – m3_stackoverflow Jul 02 '17 at 18:10
  • I prioritize security over features. I've used Bitcoin Core, Bitcoin Wallet App and Mycelium in the past. I've heard good things about Electrum and GreenAddress. Unfortunately, I don't have experience with any multicoin wallets. – Murch Jul 02 '17 at 18:38
