Hi guys wondering what the best (safest) address generator is for btc addresses ?

thanks ,

Either bitcoin core or electrum for me. Since installing electrum is usually faster, electrum mostly wins against bitcoin core. Your address is only as strong as your weakest link in your home pc setup. If you have a compromised OS, it don't really matter which software you use because you will get hacked anyway.

Linux, Electrum does it for me. I don't about the internet connection because I am behind a firewall and I don't install unpopular crap to my system.

The phrase 'bitcoin generator's makes it seem a bit complex, in the basic sense, you want to create a wallet which holds your private and public keys.
Electrum is a great option for this, so is Bitcoin core. Ensure you follow the process securely, to really keep the process safe, and back up your seedphrase properly.

If you're looking for an address that would cut on fees, you should go for SegWit addresses (starting with a 'b'). It reduces the fee rate paid on transactions, as it (basically) reduces the size of the transaction.

If I have understood you correctly, you are looking for a tool that generates bitcoin addresses securely.
If so, you can use electrum wallet. Electrum is an open-source wallet which gives you complete security if it's used properly.
Electrum gives you numerous addresses all backed up by a seed phrase.
Take note that if you want your wallet and your addresses to be 100% secure, you should install electrum on an air-gapped device.

Warning:
Download electrum only from its official website and do not forget to verify your download.
