I have not long been here just a few month so I don't know most of these wallets but I do know Blockchain.info and I will continue to use this until it is not safe to use it anymore.

It's not safe. Wink

Blockchain.info hacked for 255 BTC:

Blockchain.info makes a mistake and doesn't save private key:

When it comes down to it, nothing beats the good old fashioned paper wallet!

Yes. I voted for the "can't believe you forgot to put it" choice... because my favorite wallets are my paper wallets.

Good point. Nothing beats a good paper wallet if laminated and secured in a safety deposit box or fire proof safe.

Lol, that looks pretty good, but why would you have so many different wallets with 1 BTC each? wouldn't it be way easier to have it all on the same wallet, and print copies of this same wallet?

examples for someone who has 10 BTC total:

1) Person had 10 BTC on one paper wallet and loses it, all of it's gone. (Not as worrisome if you're keeping it in a safe or have copies somewhere else all together)

2) Person has 10 BTC on one paper wallet and wants to spend some of it, then uses their phone/tablet/online wallet/bitcoincore to sweep the wallet and that device was compromised, and you lose the money, you lose all of it.

3) Person has 10 BTC on one paper wallet and someone finds the private key (highly improbable, but still possible) and spends it for you.

Blockchain.info I have never had a problem with so I continue to use it for my daily expenses, I also have more in an electrum wallet and to be honest i have not tried any other wallet mainly because I have not needed to. if something isn't broke don't try fix it. Vote electrum-blockchain.info.

Perhaps for book keeping purposes. You spend 1 BTC from 1 paper wallet, you can shred it immediately after.

Whatever you're left with is what you have.

I like Bitcoin QT but it takes too long to sync. Armory is too sophisticated. I settled for Multibit, which is pretty awesome imo.

I'm using Blockchain, well its not the favorite at all.
Because Blockchain was my first online wallet when i know about Bitcoins Grin

Blockchain it's the best to keep large bitcoin holdings in some form of cold storage.

I still haven't found what I'm looking for...

GreenAddress is very good, but it's online and so it cannot be 100% safe; Blockchain.info is easy to use, has a custom sending option and a good internal mixing service, but it isn't so safe; Electrum has worsened with the last update...

Anyway, Bitcoin-qt as number one is a quite unespected result... How can you stand and wait to download the whole blockchain?

Cashback 15%

I'm using Electrum, Blockchain wallet, and Bitcoin qt for different purposes. But I voted for Electrum because it's easy to use and has some noob-friendly GUI that comes very handy. I'm also looking at Armory for cold storage but as I read some reviews about it, you need a powerful hardware to secure your wallet, which I don't have atm. Sad
