Topic: Electrum or MultiBit? - page 2. (Read 3194 times)
If you are new to bitcoin Multibit HD for your laptop is more user friendly than Electrum. On your phone the best choices are Mycelium for Android and Breadwallet for iPhone.

i'd reccomend electrum, it have cool design both on their website and electrum app (even not so cool) but it has the simplicity and easy to use,i just ever tried it on windows os but i think there's no big different at all compared to osx
i just thinking the main different of these wallets is the interface

p.s. remember to only download wallets from their official website not any place else.
i'll make sure to do that.
as i am using Electrum i suggest you to use it also only if you can't or don't want to run bitcoin qt as full node.

up until now i've only been using online wallets like blockchain.info.
i was browsing the forum and stumbled on this;
as a precaution i decided to get a desktop wallet, post my address here and just be more responsible with my coins, in general.
i went straight to bitcoin.org and looked up osx desktop wallets there.
bitcoin core is out of question because of the 50+GB download!
the 2nd and the 3rd wallets there were MultiBit and Electrom.
did some digging on their websites.
other than the usual we're the best and the safest on the home page,
what i've found was lengthy technical documents.
i'm not being lazy just a bit too busy for my own good!
which one of these two do you recommend and why? what are they're distinguishing features? is there a big difference at all?
are there any other wallets i've missed? that might be better than these two? and why?
p.s. i'm only looking for osx wallets!

I'm a big electrum fan, i like the interface and the fact that i have to enter my password before signing a transaction.
I also like their coin and address controll, their plugins, the fact that i can have a downloadable version, the fact that i can have a mobile version, the fact that i have several servers to chose from, the importing/exporting private keys, HW wallet support,... AND the fact that they're free (Multibit HD actually charges a very minimal developers fee).
On the other hand, Multibit HD is a fine piece of software to, i just like electrum better .
It's spelled Electrum. You should really read on both and try them. They're both safe, it just comes down to user preference and what you like to use more. I've tried both and I prefer Electrum. It's feature rich enough and I find it more simple to use. MultiBit is also very good, but I don't like the GUI as much as Electrum (personal preference, again).
