I'm trying to implement bitcoin into my business - I remember reading in this subreddit that blockchain.info is not recommended as a place to have a wallet (by bitcoin.org) - Well I have a wallet at blockchain and I have a couple of question.

Please help. I'd like to accept bitcoin as a payment method.

  1. If need be. How do I move my wallet, and what's the best place to move it to?

  2. Is there a way/application to automatically send my bitcoin to my USD bank account? I would like to accept bitcoin as a payment method but want to keep a minimal amount of bitcoin in my wallet at all times.

Keep a minimal amount? I would like to encourage you to use the bitcoin you receive to make other purchases, etc.

I plan on making purchases with it, but I don't plan on using bitcoin as a type of "stock investment". Also, thanks for the encouragement.

blockchain.info is one of the oldest and one of the best wallets out there, security wise and feature wise. Anyone telling you otherwise is a dumbass.

Just because THE DEFAULTS of the wallet were set to something doesn't mean it's unsafe.

You should at least have the decency to go through the option and decide for yourself how many rounds of encryption you want and whether you want email backups or not.

The fact that this joker left his computer open, TeamViewer open, email open, used the same password for blockchain.info and TeamViewer AND signed up with that same password on some shady website doesn't make blockchain unsafe. It makes him a retard.

In other words, the error here is ID-10T.

Do yourself a favour and stick with blockchain.
