I'm not a fan of closed source wallets as you can never know what's going on behind the scenes but I want to give them a try since I'm not planning to hold large amounts anyway.

I've managed to find Atomicwallet, Exodus and also Coinomi which is not out yet but from the screenshots they posted, it looks very promising. I want to know your thoughts on these wallets and others If you have as well.

If you not intent to hold big amount in those coins then you may try one of those,I believe that Coinomi wallet is better than other because which is considered as reputed multi coin wallet and it supports huge number of multiple cryptos as well but any way do it as your own risk.

By this logic it's okay to keep your cryptocurrency on Binance or Coinbase because they are "reputed". Closed source wallet like coinomi is no different than keeping money on exchange, you can't fully verify what happens to the private keys. You can lose funds any time and you just decide to believe in good intentions of some people you never even seen.

I've personally been very happy with Exodus, but I'm afraid that it's not fully open source.
Parts of the wallet are open source though and they're transparent about that fact.

I do want to check out Hodler, since it seems to be fully open source.

Exodus is a wallet that looks very nice and has a nice interface but I checked that link you provided and it says there: "If open source is a major source of impact for your choice in software, Exodus is not for you. " For me it means, "if you intend to use cryptocurrency, don't use this wallet". Grin

Maybe it's good for people who just started getting interested in cryptocurrency and want a nice looking app... but if you own more crypto you don't care about flashy looks, you just want to be able to 100% verify every aspect of security of your coins. People already learned to understand why you should never keep funds on an exchange, it's about time to start feeling the same about keeping funds on a closed source wallet.
