Blockchain Just Entered The Real World

There are different kinds of wallets for Bitcoin. Bitcoin Core wallet size is too big. That's why we use wallets like electrum.

Are there any reliable wallets we can use for Ethereum?

As most of the people have pointed out, myehtereumwallet is a great wallet to access the eth blockchain and store your eth and other erc20 coins. I strongly suggest to use mew in conjunction with any hardware wallet such at ledger or trezor.

I use the " original " Ethereum wallet on osx, but not with a good feeling anymore. I can't send my coins, lost a smart contract and for one strange reason, password not accepted anymore (worked fine before),.... and no support to find. Does anybody have some tips? to make me a happy eth user again?

I was asking the same question you posted in this thread!

There should be developed a sort of "Electrum" version for Ethereum.
I currently use myetherwallet.com, but it has some big downsides, that I don't like:

- It is a web wallet. Thus it has big risks.
- Tokens are usually not displayed correctly (yesterday they were not displayed at all!)
- If you switch their tabs, you are automatically disconnected and you have to log in every time again.

It is not wise to put large amount of coins on this web wallet. We need a better alternative.

As far as I understand from the comments made, there is no special and reliable wallet developed for Ethereum. You have expressed your discomfort in this regard.

The most logical solution for now is to download the original wallet from https://www.ethereum.org/

Many of my acquaintances are using MyEtherWallet because besides Ethereum you can also use it to receive ERC20 standard tokens, which are often the rewards given to the participants by new ICO projects in their bounty campaigns. But other than MyEtherWallet, Jaxx, Exodus, Parity, Metamask, and Mist can also be as an excellent alternative to MEW. Of the five, I also use Exodus because I can set up my personal portfolio there and store my other coins, including Litecoin, Gnosis, and Dash, and not just Ethereum.

How much data do I need to download to my computer when I use the original wallet at https://www.ethereum.org/ ? If the blockchain size is not very large I can use it.

Everyone recommends https://www.myetherwallet.com/. But how do you trust online wallets? For example I do not trust https://blockchain.info/. Instead I use electrum wallet.

Wallets that we can use at https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet are listed. Are there any ethereum wallets like this that are reliable and can be used on my computer?

I keep btc on blockchain.info and there's never been a problem with it. I believe it is a great website, easy to use and secure enough.
As for ethereum, once I was stupid enough to use ethereum-wallet.net and lose 60% of my eth there, because of the hack/scam. Myetherwallet is more secure, because there are private keys there and nobody knows them apart from you. That's why, just like most of people here, I'd recommend to use this one. I guess it can't possibly be hacked or robbed due to very strong security precautions.

Looks like you want an eth wallet that has nothing to do with downloading the blockchain, well you in luck with ethereum all wallets i use do not require these downloads which might be Inconveniencing at most times, you can either use https://jaxx.io/ or https://www.myetherwallet.com/ which are reliable because you have easy access to your private keys and no need for unnecessary downloads.

I used myetherwallet which can save your token from other wallet. I used to it to store my altcoin and bitcoin. It is one of the major usable web wallet which can provide private key. It can be used in other transaction like sending money to other wallet.

I use my ether wallet since it has another way of logging in. You can use a file as login username or hardware wallets and a traditional password field. It also has custom crypto money by just putting contact address, acronym, and decimals. Custom crypto money could help alternative coins to be send as the ICOs token rather than ethereum. But still ethereum is used cryptocurrency in funding an ICO. There are more other ethereum wallets, I just share my opinions about my ether wallet at myetherwallet.com

I personally recommend coinbase, exodus or jaxx, I consider these wallets to be user friendly. Most people are using myetherwallet but I consider that wallet to be even more complicated, I wouldn't recommend it to you.

But most ICOs project or manager bounty campaign in this forum always recommend we should use Myetherwallet for security and keep our private key. I know Jaxx wallet still give me permission keep private key, but some rumor about the risk use this wallet make me can't use it.

myetherwallet is the best option for ethereum. you don't need to have an app for ethereum. myetherwallet don't store your private key so that makes safeist wallet.

I suggest that you use myetherwallet. I think its a reliable wallet . It is also my first wallet that i created. Just go to myetherwallet.com and create your own wallet if you want. It is accessible by a private key which is given when you finished creating the wallet. There are so many wallets for ethereum but its up to you on what you prefer the most.

Almost all of ethereum holders are using myetherwallet.com. You don't need any other wallet.

What I don't like about myetherwallet is that you need to take care of the Keystore file yourself along with your private key. I like being able to log in with username/email and password and then my wallet opens. That doesn't work on that website and it's hard to use on multiple devices.

I'd like to hear this as well.

Is there actually a stable, working, private wallet that the user OWNS that doesn't have to interface with some centralized web database for ethereum?

I remember trying to install the Mist or whatever the hell in March and I couldn't even download the blockchain because it was so buggy/slow, maybe they fixed it since then but I haven't heard anything good.

Please don't start saying to use these close-sourced 'multiwallets' (exodus) because no-one has a clue what is going on behind the scenes with these things. It's like trusting someone you don't know with your money.

You people storing your coins in a centralized on-line wallet (myetherwallet) must like the thought of having your money stolen.

So stupid.
