Topic: What is the best bitcoin wallet v (Read 189 times)

I prefer the online wallet, without synchronizing too much block data.But if your computer has enough space, completing the sync can also help the Bitcoin environment.

I've been always told that Armory is the best and most secure wallet out there. I've tried it out but had no need for all its features. I find Electrum much easier and faster to use, but still nice and secure. Don't use online wallets and exchanges to store your money. Only use wallets that allow you to see your private key. This will come in handy when you decide to cash out one of the forked coins.

Thanks to all
On the useful information I will look at the wallet eluctrunm and cobay

I am using the decent and easiest wallet coinbase. You said you already has used blockchain. I am using coinbase from my starting of bitcoin way. I never seen any incident has occurred with it. And by using 2FA it is become so safe in every transaction. It will never cut any fee on email sending but if you send on wallet adress it will cut some of fee as usual other wallet are cut to use. So I can tell you confidentlly you can use coinbase you will find have some positive as you want.

I personally use Bread wallet and work good for me, i never have problems with it.

so it means that you are not using copay, because you said "based on my searching on the internet" why are not using this one if you think that copay is the best wallet that has ever existed? Weird..


The user is not looking for a wallet that is simple to use, coinbase is easy to use but is a real shit. The same happens with Xapo, even a grandmother can use this wallet, but the fees are expensive and it is always having issues on their platform.


In my opinion, the best thing that you can do is just try to use Electrum, cheap fees, easy to use, and you do not have to click 100 buttons to send a single transaction.

Or just buy a hardware wallet, it is much more easy to use one of them, but you need to pay.

Where is a wallet that has low transfer fees and good security? I think even if there is a wallet like that, it must have many complaints. So to keep your bitcoin safe, I think it's not a big deal to spend a lot of fees on sending. If you want to have a low fee, I think you can use the exchange, but in terms of security you should be wary of it. All risks should be considered.

I think its hard to argue which is best in terms of security and cost. I think highly secured wallet comes with high cost maintenamce fee in order to implement state of the art security technology. You can even ask your self do you use a cheap padlock to secure your belongings. personnaly, I use coinbase, its fast, secured and efficient however it comes with high transaction fee. Alternatively I also use blockchain, it is faster than coinbase based on my experience but also comes with several drawbacks.

Coinbase is not a wallet it's just exchange i know and coinbase fee is really massive.At present most of the time coinbase go to the under maintenance.I think  this is not best for BTC transaction.

Personally i use coin base.. But you can try Bolckchain also ... both are safe & secure 

Bitcoin wallet is not responsible for current high fees, they are using recommended fee to get faster confirmation if you want to only use low fee and wait for next few days for confirmation than you are free to do that with electrum and blockchain.info like wallets.

Alternatively you can use poloniex exchange as web wallet because they are still taking only 10,000 satoshi as withdrawal fee but as unverified user you can only withdraw 2000$ worth of bitcoin and transfers are not instant like in web wallets.

The dlfee is higher in all the wallets due to traffic in bitcoin network so it will be resolved soon when the transaction network get clears.but if you are looking for the bitcoin wallet with high security then hardware wallets are the best and no one can hack bitcoin from hardware wallets.

It's not about Blockchain.info wallet but it is the current network which demands more fees in order to confirm your transaction and since it is  a web wallet, I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking to hold your funds for the long term as there is a possibility of the compromisation of the data from the server side even if you are taking all the necessary precautions for your account. I agree that web wallets are easy to use but I wouldn't keep my more than 10% funds there.

I think Coinbase
Online exchanges are, by and large, less secure than the methods described below. But Coinbase seems to have learned from the lessons of its predecessors, and is one of the biggest bitcoin exchanges in the world. It's also user friendly; not only can you buy, sell, exchange and trade bitcoin on Coinbase, but you can store your bitcoin in a wallet there, too.

My first recommendation is blockchain but this wallet you already used.Electrum is my favorite and 1 years until i used this wallet and i think it safe.Bitcoin Core is also best wallet.

I think coinbase wallet is the best for bitcoin because it is safety and easy to transform

As a newbie blockchain and coinbase are good for you but as soon as you will understand the use of private and public keys. Then you go to change your wallet in electrum or bitcoin core. These desktop wallets are being best among the other desktop wallets.
If you have the option to import the wallet finds from the blockchain or other options contained wallet means use that import it to electrum wallet. You will be able adjust the fees while you transfer the fund from yours to another wallet.

I still use blockchain as a safe wallet in my opinion, because I can use it wherever I am using my smart phone, there may be other options like coinbase but I recommend blockchain as my best choice

Bitcoin Knots. This is a full bitcoin client, which is available for all operating systems. Bitcoin Knots ensures a high degree of privacy: the application does not transmit the transaction information to other members of the network, complicates the surveillance of payments, provides the ability to use the anonymous Tor browser. Other advantages include: full control of own funds, independence from third parties, open source. Drawback: can be downloaded on the PC which are vulnerable to malware, so you need to think about the security of the device.
Bitcoin Core. Takes up less space on a PC than a full bitcoin wallet, but provides access to fewer features. For Bitcoin Core is characterized by high stability, reliability, and exceptional privacy.
GreenAddress. The client assumes joint control of Finance. This means that each transaction must be confirmed by a third party (can be disabled). The app can be used in an unsafe environment, but requires two-step authentication. Disadvantages: the client depends on a third party (can be disabled) and is loaded from a remote server.
ArcBit. The app is easy to use, but does not give the owner complete control over the funds, there is the intervention of third parties. There are analogues for a smartphone.
BitGo. This client was a high level of security: by default, two factor authentication enabled and joint control means (which for some users may be negative), the system prevents snooping, but it can store the history of payments and personal data of the user.
Copay. The source code is freely available, allowing anyone to independently perform the audit. The client provides basic privacy and control of Finance, but may be vulnerable if the computer on which you installed Copay infected with a virus.
mSIGNA. The best bitcoin wallet for advanced users. mSIGNA different advanced functionality, excellent protection and convenience. Applies to "thick" applications for the PC.
Armory. Bitcoin wallet with advanced features, which offers data encryption, backup, secure storage on computers disconnected from the network. The level of security is the best bitcoin wallet.
Bither. Simple and secure client, however, low in confidentiality: the application discloses some data to other network members, allows you to monitor transactions and the balance of the user does not support Tor.
Electrum is a thin client, which still claims the title of best bitcoin wallet for beginners. Electrum has all the necessary functions and very easy to use. The program conducts SPV using remote servers provides two-factor authentication and basic privacy. Have Electrum open source.

But I think Blockchain is still the best to use as storing bitcoins, and even very powerful keys can we use in Blockchain ...
