Which of the Bitcoin wallets between the Online and Offline works best?

Offline wallets are the most secured wallets you can get!
Online wallets are extremely risky, if the website goes down or if the company has a problem, good bye.

I'd recommend 100% to use only Offline Wallets.

Blockchain as an online wallet s fine but online wallet re hot wallets, you should use them only for daily transactions and never keep significant BTC amount there. Offline, lots of choices, Armoury, Electrum, hardware wallets. These last ones are the best option.

Even Bitcoin was totally generated and operated through online specification, I thought the best wallet for Bitcoin storage will be in terms of Offline wallet because with this type of wallet, you can easily access and monitor your Bitcoin holdings whenever and wherever you are without the need of having internet and even concerning online access just to see and observe how your Bitcoin holding behave. This can be also applicable into other type of cryptocurrency so that it will be much easier and less hassle accessing your account because it was just offline even you are working and earning it through online.

Why not both ?

I think, every part has positive and negative side
Offline wallets, best security ever and if you lose your device wallet, you still can recover your asset. but if you forget didn't bring it when you needed it, its nothing.
Online wallets, less secure than offline wallets, but you can access your wallets where ever you are. still have a chance of being hacked
Yup! Nothing safe 100%. As long as you can be sure your online wallet use 2FA + other security setting, you can use online wallet to store your Bitcoin with low risk. Deposit Bitcoin to exchange and trade on this place also means you are using online wallet Wink.

Bitcoin is such high value that I don't see any other sensible storage option than an offline wallet. You need to be in full control of your assets and not leave them vunerable to a hack or foul play shutdown of an exchange. Bitcoin Core has always worked well for me but may look into a Ledger soon for extra security.

Based on my experience, i will prefer offline wallets because they are safe and it is not that risky because you are storing your bitcoins on wallets offline and you only need to secure them from the thieves out there in your place but rather than that like hackers, you don't need to worry because it works offline and it is very easy to use.

I'm sorry a newbie here!
how to apply or to have an offline wallet?
maybe there lots of way to find information about this but i prefer to ask you guys here for you have more experience than to google it.

Both work fine but are a lot different, offline wallets are great to store your bitcoin for the long term but if you want practicality then online wallets cannot be beaten but you are at a great risk of being hacked.

It's more beautiful when online wallet than offline wallet is offline and the onliner wallet is fast when you need money right away you can get it offline because it's close and you will not get your money right when you need it This is because online wallets are running online so you can send money in different places to your needs.

I prefer online wallet, the main reason is the bitcoin balance I have is still a bit and become a hassle if I use an offline wallet, other than that my work is not in the office so often change IP address or hardware.

i go to online wallet, use exchanger wallet its fine for me. i know most of people tell me that its not safe or something but i still use it
Use exchanger wallet is not so good, there are many chase where exchangers are hacked. I prefer like to use online single wallet because its more secure.

Those two wallets are perfect fit bitcoin. The only thing is that both of it has differences that could either be goof or bad. But for me, I prefer using those both. I usually divide my bitcoins into online and offline. This could be a win win situation for me as well. So if you'll as what I prefer most, for the mean time it is the offline wallet. As the title suggest so.

Well it really depends on how you will use your funds in your wallet for example:if you are planning just to store some of your funds and wait its value to increase you may use offline wallet,for daily transactions you can use some online wallets since some online wallets are very handy and can be installed to mobile phones.

Offline portwfel is the best because it will provide 100% security. The mechanical one is encrypted from the panel on the wallet. You can always break into online wallets.
portwfel?

Explain what this is please.
First time I heard of this unless it was just a mistype due to fat finger syndrome. Cheesy

I think this depends on how you will be using your bitcoins. I am using an online bitcoin wallet since there are some times when I need to convert some of my bitcoin into fiat but most of them, I store them in an offline wallet for saving because I am planning to use them in other things like trading and investing, I do not want to use all of them immediately.

Yes right, online wallet is more practical and can be used when when often change computer or IP address, in addition we can access with PC we also can access with smartphone.

I've tried to use electrum for bitcoin saving, but I'm afraid if someday the computer is damaged or exposed to the virus then all the bitcoin I save will be gone so I prefer saving bitcoin in online wallet like coinbase or blockchain.
