I'd like to see the addition of hardware wallets as well. I have the trezor and have been using it for a while. I'm currently purchasing the others and am most pumped for keepkey. Hardware wallets vary a lot in functionality, security, quality, craftsmanship and price. If you're protecting any amount of BTC I would say get the best wallet available. Peace of mind is priceless IMO
Couldn't have said that better myself. A good hardware wallet is so much easier to use for coin storage than the most secure offline transaction signing computer is. It might be a good idea to store large amounts of bitcoin in secure, offline paper wallets, but a good hardware wallet is a great solution for storing a reasonable chunk of your bitcoins for easy and secure access.

Thank you for this list, but if i were you i would add more wallets like hardware wallets (Trezor, Keepkey....) take a look at these.

Please PM me all of the ones you would want added. I'm keeping this list up to date.
There are many hardware wallets Trezor, Ledger, KeepKey and few others which can be found with a simple google, btw i found this link in wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Hardware_wallet

I second what these guys said about adding hardware wallets to your list.  I have a Ledger nano hardware wallet that I use as all the time.  I love the thing.  The funny thing is that I used bitcoin for a long time before ever buying it.  I can't believe it took me so long to buy one.  If I was getting into bitcoin for the first time again, I would buy a ledger right away.  They are only $15 to $30 and they work great.

First of all, I agree with the others. Offline should be labeled as local and online should be labeled as web wallets.

You should not just copy from Bitcoin.org because that is really just useless. Instead, you should compile your own list by actually finding wallet software and listing them.

Thirdly, actually list the mobile wallets, not just a picture of something I can already find on Bitcoin.org

Lastly, Armory is no longer hosted on bitcoinarmory.com. That site is dead. There is no site for it as an official one has not yet been set up. The release downloads are currently being hosted on github at https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/releases.

Will fix up everything. I'm pretty new to this site so this was my first try in a contribution.

I'm sorry but I think you have been confused with the term "cold-storage",offline wallets, and "web" wallets. A majority of the wallets you listed as offline are actually connected to the internet "hence" they make a connection across your internet connection so you are connected online. Just a clarification, if you download any of those wallets you stated that are "offline", people will have a misconception they are not connected to the internet and virtually safe when in essence, they are not.

OFFLINE THESE ARE NOT OFFLINE WALLETS BY DEFAULT!

Bitcoin Core - https://bitcoin.org/en/download
Electrum - https://electrum.org/#download
MultiBit (HD) - https://multibit.org/]https://multibit.org/]https://multibit.org/
Armory - https://bitcoinarmory.com/download/
mSIGNA - https://ciphrex.com/

These are just some of the more popular offline wallets and as you can see, most if not all are featured on the official Bitcoin site (bitcoin.org):
-snip-

Offline means no internet, not "no webpage"! All these can run offline, but they are not by default and you need a dedicated offline computer for this.

i can see that there are a lot of great wallets though blockchain.info is the best in my opinion

Its one of the worst wallet services in bitcoin history with the most critical issues. Its a wonder people are still using them and I can only think its because of the name.

I understand what you're saying. But the statement is technically correct.

No its not. If you downloading any of the wallets listed in the "offline" section they will instantly try to access something on the internet, be that a dnsseed for core or an electrum server for electrum. Call them "local" or at the very least explain what you mean when you say "offline", because I can assure you its not what people would commonly expect when they read "offline". They will think "paper wallet" and not "potentially offline". With your idea of "offline" all "mobile" wallets are "offline" wallets, because they can potentially run on a phone without SIM and WLAN. Bither even has a cold mode, that forces the phone offline when opening the wallet.

whether wallet offline that you share truly safe? does not contain viruses ?

They just copied most of them from here -> https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

Its very unlikely that any of them comes with a virus.
