I prefer only blockchain wallet. Nectar in bitcoin world i find trust any body except blockchain. As I had encountered many scam related ponzi does that loots money from user do Asher encountering such situations I can't take risk again.
Neither hehe I was confused with Nector anyways Wink , yeah blockchain is the best wallet to use for those who want some safety plus quick transactions because its online so its quick but being the fact that we can save the private keys make it secure too. But hey there is a new wallet in the market, rushwallet Wink

I use the online blockchain wallet the most.
Besides that I use bitcoin core on one of my laptops and electrum and multibit on the other.

I think your funds will be safer if you will transfer your money to a cold wallet. If printed out correctly, you can have the safest Bitcoin funds. Cold wallets keep you safe and protected against hackers. If you got a very old laptop or PC, you can install Linux Live on it and proceed to the creation of these wallets. They can also be generated offline, which is insane!

I myself use 3 different wallets. One is on my Android device, one on my desktop PC and one online.

The one i like the most is on my desktop, MultiBit. I like it because you can quicky generate new deposit adresses and keep track of your incomes and outcomes. I only use Blockchain for some payments, and on my mobile phone i have MyCelium wallet, which i use for mobile/QR code scanning payments.

What wallets do you use and which one do you prefer and why?

I am using blockchain from the very first.I think it's security is very high and no chance of hacking.Again their support is very good.I can also use block chain wallet in outside of my home on my Android device.And over all a nice and colorfull walllet.

I have always used the blockchain.info online wallet (right now, I have two of them). For trade, I use the Localbitcoins.com wallet, and for receiving my sig earnings, I use by Yobit wallet. These are the only wallets I use.

Im using blockchain but i didnt like their last moove about tax the transfers between accounts, since the provided those service before for free as i do believe others companies does provide, its a stupid action to charge costumers that has more then one wallet for different things they need and use.

Are you talking about the fees? Because i don't see any other tax for bitcoin transactions on any wallet except the transaction fees which you select yourself on blockchain while they are automatically set on some wallets like Xapo, or maybe Xapo does not charge any, i'm not sure.

I only use the blockchain.info wallet, as its a great and secure wallet. I also have the official app on my Android for checking my balance sometimes. I sue it mainly because its accessibility and I can access it anywhere with a secure computer and internet connection. Its also great that a email verification is required to login to the wallet. This prevents unauthorised access.
Well, in my case I have a lot of wallet. I do not rely only to blockchain, I feel comfortable and safe with a lot of wallets as it will also give additional benefits if you want to launder money online, they will not know when there's a lot of wallet you are using.
While using many wallets provide the safety that you wont loose all the coins at one time if a site scams but at the same time if you use 10 sites then you will always be unsafe because among the 10 any one might scam and hence you will suffer, yeah that's loss but still that's a loss.

I was using the blockchain wallet since long time but since the time the new wallet has arrived I have started to use the xapo wallet because in that new blockchain even if I login after 1 hour it asks me too verify email for some odd reason plus it is very bad and highly unlikely to use as compared to the earlier one, non user friendly.

I can say we have different experience, I have been using bitcoin and transferring my bitcoins is different wallet but I have not experience any tax.. If I may ask, what country are your living? Because here in our country it's tax free at all.

Im using  blockchain.info  for fast online  transaction and  a  local wallet provider  which  i used to store  all of  my  bitcoins. I didnt  donwload  a pc wallet  because it  too huge   and cant  wait for too long  on  just downloading  it.  It really dont matter  hence  im  just  owning  small amounts of bitcoin and i  do earn only from signature  campaigns  that i participate.
Yeah to download the blockchain completely you have to wait a lot unless your connection is good but to avoid this maybe you can download the boostrap file or something is there. Anyways I also prefer blockchain wallets and xapo (now they ask verification Sad ) because they are much quicker than offline wallets.

Currently I am using multibit wallet, i tried electrum but it seems there is some problem in my part, i can't seem to connect to their server so I gave up the idea,  Then I stumbled on armory lightwallet and I tried and was happy using it.  I use this kind of wallet because I have a control of the private key and i don't need to download the whole blockchain and at the same time I am able to use it asap.

multibit is a good option too for me, its really work properly and i don't have any bad experience while i use this wallet. beside that, i use the market exchange wallet to keep my bitcoin and to trading. but i am curious about jaxx, maybe later i will try to use jaxx and see the different from multibit.

I use electrum, that's it

It's a small fee so it's worth it for transferring daily

You are using stand alone wallets that means. I always prefer online wallets, while I know the risks involved in online wallets there are some excellent wallets like blockchain.info because they also provide us the private key for each address and hence there are rare chances of them scamming us.

I use 3 different wallets for 3 different reasons.
Blockchain = It allows me to generate random wallet addresses
Xapo= Allows me to receive instant satoshi in some instant claim faucets
Coins.ph = Since im from PH , this is my default wallet where I send all my money from the 2 above.

I prefer only blockchain wallet because I don't trust any 3rd party in bitcoin world. It's anonymous and let it be anonymous so why to take risk with 3rd party wallets. Also blockchain wallet have awesome and secure Android app which makes it comply easier to use the wallet.
