I can support here only Bitcoin core only because it is much famouse and encrypted for your money and bitcoin .
So here it is only core , but I found some mistake in your list because I didn't found my another best wallets here for example electrum , mysellium like Because they are working on slow internet speed and have better options of import and export options for the private key .

Since I'm from Philippines I prefer using coins.ph site for storing my bitcoins.I also have xapo wallet before but I saw some post regarding the payments not receive to xapo wallet though the faucet site confirms that is was transferred. Hesitating to use I migrate from xapo to coins.ph which is good because for Filipino from my point of view.

I only use the wallet from blockchain.info, not interested to try other type of wallet, with the settings  2FA everything is good, secure and very safety. I use blockchain.info more than 7 months and everything is okay.

Well I did used blockchain.info for several months but right now I'm trying to use another wallet which is xapo.

And with op's list of different web wallets, I'm not familiar with some of it, only with bitcoin core.

I'll stick with web wallets for now, not with desktop wallets.

The first thing is you have to choose wich type of wallet do you prefer: client, web based, android app, paper wallet, ect... Most newbies like to start with a web based wallet such as coinbase. Personnally, even if you have a preference i recommand you to try every type of wallets, at least you can learn more efficently how to use bitcoin, don't limit yourself to one type of wallet only, if you plan to understand fully how bitcoin works.

All wallets are good, but I suggest using the recommendation from: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

If you use the wallet of the exchanger, you should only use it for transactions (not to store long term).

It is never never even heard of almost all these wallets

I use only Coinbase and Xapo
but any currency exchange can be you wallet
more recently,I use only cryptopay because I have there debt card
Its because all wallets mentioned by OP is a desktop wallet while you are using is obvious a web wallets and exchange site also as coinbase. Maybe you are true that any exchange can be your wallet but its not safe to store your coins in any site like that which is you dont have the control over your bitcoins.

I'm not familiar with most of the wallets on the list. I'm familiar with a few ones like electrum. But I do prefer to use wallet with blockchain.info and xapo.  Of the time I've been using blockchain.info though the forum recommending and advertising bitcoin core. Its just a matter of confidence and convenience.

1. If you are newbie and not familiar with how bitcoin works than --- coinbase and xapo

2. If you know little bit about bitcoin (about address, privatekey, transaction fees) ---- blockchain.info web/mobile wallet

3. If you know how to import, export, backup, create bitcoin address ---- electrum

4. If you like to store huge amount of bitcoin and spend them daily securely --- Trezor (hardware wallet)

5. If you like to save some bitcoin for long term without spending --- Paper wallet (put in safe place)

Is always highly suggested to start with web wallets services for the newbies as they might get failed to secure their standalone wallets. The web wallets are suggested just due to easy securing like what we usually do with our email accounts.

After getting some good knowledge on bitcoin ecosystem and how to secure our wallet and how to securely backup it and more importantly after bought/collected some decent amount of bitcoin, it is recommended to switch over to one or two stand alone wallets listed on op.

I'd say BTC.com


The wallet has these features:

HD Wallet
Multi-Sig
Easy to use
Easy sending to contacts
*Along many other features.


Also, we are backed by Bitmain Technologies, biggest bitcoin mining manufacturer.


We will be accepted to Bitcoin.org this week

The blockchain is basically the public ledger of all bitcoin transaction that ever happened , If you are okay with downloading it (which is +100GB right now afaik) and will keep growing over the years then I suggest going with Bitcoin Core as It's the official bitcoin client otherwise just go with Electrum as I already said.
thank you so much u made everything clear bro, i already started with Electrum Cheesy

thank you all for help and advice i appreciate that from you and im very thankful Cheesy Grin,

I have a big guess that those wallets mentioned above are from this list https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet. And all I can suggest is electrum wallet as it is so easy to use without trouble and a lightweight desktop as you don't need to download the whole blockchain that is required for those other desktop wallet that you mentioned.
  Roll Eyes well yes i got that list from  https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

Unless you are planning to store large amounts of bitcoins then I suggest going with Electrum , It doesn't require downloading the full blockchain , It's possible to export your private keys and they also give you a 12 words passphrase which you should keep safe (It will allow you to recover your wallet anytime anywhere) , that could helpful In case of a computer failure or forgetting your password.


you both guys mentiond "the full blockchain" i hope you explain me more about that i didnt got it well what is that full blockchain.  Huh

read this topic in the beginners and help board: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/general-bitcoin-wallets-which-what-why-1631151
in the end you don't have to only choose one, you should choose multiple wallets for multiple usages. for example a cold storage for keeping majority of your bitcoin wealth and a web wallet for small amounts to spend.

also this may be helpful:
