I also use Armory, it is incredibly safe. Nobody can get my bitcoins even if they hack my computer, as the actual wallet is stored on a USB and used on a different, offline computer. Sure it takes more time for me to send my bitcoins somewhere

I am using blockchain because I feel its better then others and I feel secure with this

Same here. I use only online wallet.

If your going to use online wallets please only do so for small amounts of coins. So many people have been burnt over the years. Remember if you dont own the keys, you dont own the coins. Simple.

I'm using Electrum, because it small and fast, and Bitcoin Core (on SSD), it seems more compatible with bitcoin protocol.

I hate Bitcoin Core's slow as hell reindex function. I will change it to Multibit and Armory.

I use Blockchain because moving a low sums, is fast, easy way to create account, no need to sync, but if I had too much could keep a client PC or on paper wallet.

I'm using blockchain. Because i don't do that much transactions. I just keep fund low like 50-60 USD max at a time. So its more easy and convenient for me than any other bitcoin clients.

Electrum is one of the most popular wallets, i have found my self using and never stopped using since i change over from the regular qt client.

This.. My brother suggested to use electrum when I got into bitcoin and I haven't looked back ever since.. It works and works well, what more do you need?

The revolution will be digital
Electrum is the best

I was considering Electrum because I like the idea of HD wallets, but I don't like that i wouldn't have the blockchain locally.
Ive seen Armory uses HD too but does it differently with another method. I've got no idea how to make the master public key show up to in Armory share it tho.

I also really like the idea of HD wallets, but doing a little research now has me a little worried: there may be some weaknesses in HD wallets like, if someone has a private key (P) and a public key (K), where P is a subkey of K, then they can work out the private key to K. Meaning that sharing public keys can actually be dangerous. I wonder if there are ways around this or if Armory has worked a solution out for this. Either way, I do love the idea of HD wallets.

What are the advantages of using a hierarchical deterministic wallet ?

Trezor for savings and mining proceeds. Breadwallet for spending smaller amounts.

I used Bitcoin Core before getting the Trezor.

I use the core Satoshi client on most of my machines. Why? Familiarity, mostly. Five years without issue, and I know how to secure them. I've used other clients, and I like them, but I still come back to the original.

And I've never trusted online wallets.

I use coinbase to store my btx fund in its vault ( cold Storage ). I feel coinbase vault is secure to store your bitcoins. Because, to withdraw it requires to verify the withdrawl request from 2 mail ids.

What if you lose access to the emails?

Desktop: Bitcoin Core - I actually run this on a VPS due to the blockchain size, but I move coins out as soon as they get in.
Phone: Bitdash Wallet for Android - because we eat our own dog food.
