Topic: Mycelium or Electrum? Best bitcoin wallet (Read 765 times)
both mycelium and electrum are good and I won't say the best bitcoin wallet but I prefer with mycelium although in the past I use electrum too and multibit to save my bitcoin. mycelium can install in your android phone so you can transfer your bitcoin in your phone, I don't know how about electrum and maybe electrum is available too for your android.
Mycelium and Electrum both are good wallets. Compare to mycelium Electrum has more features. That's why many people choose their choice as Electrum. Iam also using Electrum wallet for long time, still now i dont face any problem in this wallet. This wallet is very safe and secure wallet with user friendly options. It enables segwit address for low transaction fees. It is also based on two factor authentication and private keys.
I think both are good and could be recommended
Yes both are good wallet but most are using electrum and I'm one of it. I've been using electrum until I got my nano s.If someone is still confuse on what to choose, try both of it or see the comparisons of other websites.

I used electrum, pretty good wallet
I think both are good and could be recommended but my choice is Mycelium. I use it for a long time now and it has good qualities in every way regarding safety, user friendly features, transactions fees, full control of private keys etc.
Here in case of these two wallets it's more the question of personal taste than some differences that decide in favour of one wallet or the other.

Iam using Electrum wallet for long time. This wallet is safe and secured for using. The transaction fees is very low and the speed is also high compared to other wallets. This wallet is based on segwit so there are so many bitxoin users use this wallet for their transaction. It supports two way factor authentication. This wallet is used in both destop and also anroid. The configuration is so friendly for its users and it is based on private keys.
Electrum for desktop. Exodus, although not open source, has been around for 6-8 months without any major issues reported. It has a more user-friendly interface than Electrum. On Mobile, I've been using Eclair wallet lately and would recommend it.
I do have an experience with only Electrum. A good experience on Segwit with Electrum. The transaction fees was so minimal which event did not cross 2 dollars. It has been so supportive during December 2017 when the transaction fees were so high. The transaction was so quick and secured. Electrum system is setup with friendly configures.
so if you are prepared to pay for 2fa-be my guest,but I think 5k for each login is slightly overpriced and unreasonable
Then you don't understand how the 2FA system in Electrum works... it is not a "login" 2FA system. It is a "MultiSig" wallet that uses TrustedCoin as a signatory. They will only sign if you successfully complete the 2FA process. So, you are only "charged" for each transaction that you request TrustedCoin to sign.You can open and close your wallet as much as you like without being charged. Additionally, you can get your funds out without having to pay ANY 2FA charges by disabling the 2FA functionality (restore from seed, select "disable" when prompted).
both are good .i think u can use both and remember to use 2fa 
Two factor Authentication is the best way, I know. But Its hard when/by any mistake if I lost my 2fa code, then it will so bad. So I want a wallet which is good overall transactions fee low, fast more secure. By thr way, thank you for your valuable reply. don't forget that when you are using 2fa in Electrum you will be charged for it!
many people do not read the fineprint and then wonder who the hell charged them 100k
it happens that Electrum uses a third party 2fa provider that charges 100k satoshis for 20 credits aka 20 uses
so if you are prepared to pay for 2fa-be my guest,but I think 5k for each login is slightly overpriced and unreasonable
Many of the crypto users have recommended electrum, so there's no doubt that electrum is the best among the other good wallets. Take care
Yes, I support electrum wallet.Its great wallet and so more secure than all other wallet.
I used it, good wallet without confusion/doubt.

I have used Electrum and i feel very secure in using this desktop wallet. Twice i got my computer hacked but god grace they were not able to crack Electrum seed key. And it is very light to use their is no need to download full nodes, just download the software and key in the seed key and your wallet is ready to use.
Electrum wallet is the best. It is based on private keys. The security level is high and Electrum wallet is safe to use. The transaction fees is very low compared to other wallets. So many users prefer Electrum wallet rather than mycelium wallet. It supports 2 factor authentication and it is also supports Segwit address for low transaction fees.

As a new in bitcoin researchers which is good Mycelium or Electrum? I want to use a best bitcoin wallet. No hacker's can't be hack my wallet. So just from my curiosity which is better bitcoin wallet. Very high security wllet which? Need information
I am familiar with Electrum wallet as i am using it. I am yet to use Mycelium wallet. I started using Electum wallet for Segwit. The transaction fees are very low. Though current transaction fees are very low, it used to be more during December and January. The features are very friendly. We can adjust number of blocks to reduce and increase the transaction fees.
Both wallets are working under same principle that is using private keys. I would prefer Electrum wallet, because this wallet has Segwit enabled. This wallet is very safe and secure, while transaction fees is very low. It supports desktop and mob android as well. In this security options include 2-factor authentication. This is user friendly and transaction speed is very fast.

A lot of my bitcoin friends are using Mycelium, so I guess it is majority wins. I would probably use it too! 
Both are good wallets but my choice would be Mycelium. It suits me better and it's more convenient because it's mobile wallet, security features are good.
Electrum had recently some security breaches and issues but that doesn't have to be deciding factor.

Both mycelium and Electrum are best wallets to use. Mycelium supports only smartphone while Electrum supports desktop. Both are using private keys. I supports Electrum is supports 2 factor authentication with low transaction fees and with high security. It uses Segwit address for transaction. It had clean user interface tools.
