what about the coinbase wallet?

Coinbase, not coinbase vault or multisig is a shared wallet. This means that you do not control your private keys and it would not be assesible if they go down. However, as they are registered, the funds would be insured.

The downside of using core is you have to download 40+ GB before you can use your wallet. Also, it takes a large space in one's storage. Though it offers full functionalities of what a bitcoin wallet should have, still it is not ideal for people who only wants to send and receive bitcoin without wanting to explore the deeper and technical features of what core offers.

I use Bitcoin Core for now. But blockchain is getting bigger and bigger. When I first downloaded blockchain it was 30 GB file, Now it is 52 GB!
I will probably switch to Multibit or Electrum in the near future.

Ive used Blockchain.info before, and i have sms verification on my wallet but blockchain wont send me the code today for some reason. I dont know why.
So i figured i could try out/check out some other wallet meanwhile to see if its better/more userfriendly etc.

Have you tried resending the code for you? It coulf have been an issue in your mobile network provider and not blockchain.info.

Yes i have, and i dont belive its my mobile network provider. Worked perfectly yesterday.

I have encountered the same issue as yours back then, and resending the code fixed my problem on 2fa. Have you put an email in there? Try sending the code on your email.

How do i choose to send it with email instead?

If you have set your email before, there would appear an option to send the code in your email if it hadn't appear on your phone.

I use online Blockchain for my transactions here, I did not download the mobile app as I'm afraid of losing my phone and lose access to my wallet as well

For long term storage I guess paper wallet is good and cheap.

I use Electrum as my main wallet and Copay as the mobile wallet for when I am away from my PC.

what about the coinbase wallet?


What about it? It's not really a wallet, it's almost same as keeping your money with an unknown third party and expecting that nothing happens to it.

I use Electrum on PC and Andreas Schildbach's Bitcoin Wallet in my phone. Both are handy when it comes to functionality and ease of use.

I just got a simply question.
Which bitcoin wallet do you use?

Thanks for answers!

Copay and Mycelium. Just try it out.

it also depends on the amount that you want to store in that wallet. if you want to store large amounts (thousands of USD) do some research (Cold Storage).

I tend to stick with my mobile wallet if I do have some coins to carry around, and since I have an iOS I use breadwallet... it's nice because it connects directly to the blockchain network and has really nice security features that go along with it.  As for the coins I hold on my computer, I tend to just use multibit HD, because it's simple and relatively secure to the point where I don't have to worry as much.

Electrum for me. It's a HD wallet and does offer the features that daily users need.
