What about Win XP? I hear that many people use xp

Seeing that it is no longer supported by Microsoft you should know what you are doing if you wanted to use WinXP. There are no more patches in case of a bug or security problem. You might also run into problems because new software is no longer wirtten with WinXP in mind.

The best way to keep your bitcoins safe is by using an offline wallet.

If you want a decent operating system, I'll advise you to use a free open-source one, check a few GNU/Linux distributions and see which one you like best.

It can be anything as long as you know what you're doing.

If you're going to use windows, you should have an effective Anti-virus installed and a strong firewall active.
I personally like linux(Ubuntu) much more than windows as I find it more efficient and safe.


If you're a technically advanced user- go for linux.
If you're an average joe - Windows is for you.
If you're computer illiterate - OSX will do the job.

What is the best opertive system gfor your pc in order to preserve bitcoins ?? BTC

The one you understand best and can maintain the best. No OS is secure if you do not know how to handle it properly. If you spend the first 26[1] years of your life with Windows it makes no sense to suggest you switch to OpenBSD just because its safer.
