It's designed for experienced traders as they don't offer a customer service and it's based on privacy.

Company / organization behind the wallets
Xeth was developed in 2015 by Victor Bucataru also known as Devktor and Vladimir Bucataru. The platform is non-profit and comunity based. Their purpose was to create a free, open-source Ethereum GUI wallet with stealth payments.
Xeth may be an insecure wallet due to their hot storage, the absence of 2FA and multi-signature authentication. In exchange they offer a dual-key stealth that allows scanning for payments without exposing the private key. The user has two private keys, one for spending and one for scanning. There is no recovery system to decrypt the private keys without the user's password.
