 all bitcoin wallets are good as long as you are downloading them from the official sites/links and be careful not to get the wrong tampered with wallet.

also you have to choose the wallet based on your needs so there isn't only one good wallet for everyone.

I've started with blockchain and tried out a few more on the side but I find the blockchain to be the best one and I'm still using it today.

I think there is no bitcoin wallet guaranteed 100% safe and will not deceive us. In my view all of wallet risky scam, if you want 100% safe create your own wallet to make your own network: D

But the best use for the wallet, in my opinion blockchains.info and Coinbase. Because until now I still use their services. Just a suggestion do not ever leave your large funds in just one wallet providers. to reduce the risk of things we do not want.

bitcoin core is the best wallet to use I think that is save
for online wallet no guaranteed 100% safe. but the offline wallet like bitcoin core is very good.

I think the problem from bitcoin core is malware dude, so thats not 100% right for offline wallet. Bitcoin core is good but I do not like when it takes up a large enough memory. This time alone has reached 65 GB Sad

it is weird to say bitcoin core wallet for offline storage, but i guess if you want it IS possible. because you don't need to connect to internet with it so there is no blockchain (70+GB) download.
but that would only be used for creating a bitcoin address to dump bitcoin in, in that case there are simpler ways of doing this for offline storage.

I'll suggest blockchain.info because of its security and user friendly interface. Add on 2fa verification for more security of your funds specially in big amounts. I didn't encounter any problems on blockchain. So I'll recommend it to those newbie or starters in Bitcoin world.

There are some good 2fa option's aswell.   Cell phones scare me some as social engineering can happen and numbers get transferred to "bad guys".  In past month or so been a few big youtube people who have been hit by this.  So we are not big target's like them... but still can happen.

One I like is Yubikey which I did a hand's on with for blockchain.info https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hands-onyubikey-help-secure-your-digital-assets-including-blockchaininfo-1353231 .   It is a physical token that you have to press a button on.  So you have have access to the usb stick, and also physically press the button it can not be activated via software.  Which makes it where it can't be pressed remote which is good.

So yes 2fa is great idea.  But still a hot wallet so don't store a ton of coins there.

The day I entered into bitcoin I am using only blockchain.info wallets as I felt that its security features are too good and not easy for anyone to steal your coins.

Blockchain.info is one the most used bitcoin wallet and at times it is best to use the one that most people use because it means they are well trusted. Smiley

It should be noted that it should be treated like a hot wallet, you don't want to keep all your BTC in a service like this.  Although I will agree they are one of the most popular wallets, and have a good history.  But one bad event could change that.  I think you would be much better off with hardware wallet/paper wallet/etc if storing a decent amount.

The only online wallet that is a little different I can think of is Coinbase.  They hold a insurance policy ( https://support.coinbase.com/customer/portal/articles/1662379-how-is-coinbase-insured- ).   Most online hot wallets do not have this, still would be careful storing large quantity of coins.

I suggest xapo bcoz i use it a year but until now i never experience to delay all transaction.xapo is free transaction but lacks a bit of security, but that does not have good security, because the Bitcoin wallet user has no access to private key. I have 2 wallets xapo and coins.ph. If i want to cash out my bitcoin i will transfer it from xapo to coins.ph.

What Bitcoin wallets are best to use?

That depends on the user. You could make a flow diagram for this decision.

Do you trust your mobile phone?   (No -> no mobile wallet)
Do you want to pay for your wallet?  (No -> no hardware wallet)
Do you want privacy? (Yes -> no mobile wallet, no web wallet)
Are you tech savy? (No -> use a simple wallet)
Does your computer crash every year/month/week? (Yes -> dont use desktop wallet)
Did your phone break due to accidents (water, drop) in the past? (Yes -> don use mobile wallet)

Hello people!

This thread is designed to help newbies and advanced users alike...

1. For newbies to be able to choose their first Bitcoin wallet to store their coins
2. For advanced users to have an insight on what other wallets have to offer in general and be able to make a decision whether they want to transfer or not

See the whole list here:

The most definitive post on Bitcoin Wallets

We have reviewed a number of Bitcoin wallets from our experience are best to use. This is based solely on our opinion and we also welcome the opinions of others. Anyone can post suggestions and questions. We are here to answer.
It's really a good idea to keep users of Bitcoin informed of the best Bitcoin wallets.
I propose Xapo, which is a good wallet that has no transaction fees, but lacks a bit of security, but that does not have good security, because the Bitcoin wallet user has no access to private keys.

I'm already use blockchain over a year and It almost never have any problem since I'm using it ( except they are down for some maintenance)
They are easy to use and simple interface so you will learn fast eventhough you're new using blockchain
