Hello, which bitcoin wallet is the best to get?

For example:
1. Free
2. No need to connect to bank.
3. Little or no transaction fee
and etc....

Thanks!

All of the above if i can get. And i think xapo can be option rather than coinbase who are US based and we all know they ask lots of KYC papers if we have large amount. I love blockchain.info and xapo.

Blockchain.info would be the best online wallet
Coinbase would be the most convenient wallet.
Electrum is a good local online wallet.
Armory would be the best cold wallet.
A KeepKey/Trezor would be the best hardware wallet.
A Ledger wallet would be the best budget hardware wallet.
Bitcoin-qt would be the best all rounder.

Blockchain.info and Coinbase are both good web wallets but for different purposes blockchain is better for handling everything on your own and coinbase is good for purchasing only.

Electrum and Armory are both good for cold storage with the difference that armory will take a lot of space (even more than core) cause it is full node while Electrum is SPV

Well classified. One of the major requirement in bitcoin is the wallet. I too think and use Blockchain.info to be the best bitcoin wallet with all necessary features.

If you want an easy to use offline wallet I'd recommend Electrum, but there are many more options which might be even better.

I'm wondering why there is no blockchain wallet among WEB wallets in the list. Is something wrong with it?

no there nothing wrong with blockhain, if you mean blockchain info is not listed maybe because its an online wallet.

And exactly this is the reason it should be listen on bitcoin.org in WEB Wallets section. We have there: BitGo, Green Address, CoinKite (don't know what that is),
Xapo, Circle, Coinbase, Coinapult (never heard of it) and we don't have blockchain.info? Is there something wrong with blockchain.info or something?

Yeah, that's exactly why I'm asking. And since there are no answers I guess nothing wrong with the blockchain wallet, they just forgot to include it in their list for some reasons. So maybe I'll start using it if nobody minds. )

Guys does electrum have transaction fee? If so, how much?

Electrum does not have its own fees, though you still have to (and should) pay the miner fees.
Electrum is what I would recommend.

There is the standard transaction fee that goes to the miners (integral part of bitcoin, all wallets do this). In Electrum, the user can define which amount they want to pay per kilobyte. (Recommended fees can be found here: http://www.cointape.com/)

If you are talking about a transaction fee that goes to the creators of Electrum, then no, there isn't.

Because the Electrum blockchain info servers are volunteer-run, it's a good idea to tip them every once in a while in the "console" tab of Electrum.

Miner fees?

Yes, there are miner fees. There are no other fees.

Mostly all wallets are free to use (unless you used to buy a hardware wallet),with no fee is xapo and coinbase as far as i know.

I am using Bitcoin Core and Electrum. I use Bitcoin Core mainly to store my Bitcoins for the long term. It needs you to download the complete blockchain which might take you some days to complete it. Electrum is what I use for easy and quick transactions. Unlike Bitcoin Core, the Electrum wallet doesn't require you to download the entire blockchain. Easy and fast.

The best bitcoin wallet to get is the one which you personally prefer and feel safe with.

1, Paper wallet. Nearly free.

2, Connected to bank? That is a strange one. Not sure any are. I will go with Ledger

3, If you want your transaction to confirm in time then pay a small fee. Not worth getting out of paying a few cents for a transaction for 100's.

All in all I prefer the Ledger wallet as it is super easy to use and safe, it does cost a small amount but you pay for what you get and it is easy to access should you need to.

I just use Xapo, I know they don't release the private keys but as I don't hold that much I don't really care and the service is very good with great security. I doubt they will run with the money and I may try their Vault option once I have some more BTC. I think for most people services like this are essential to bring Bitcoin to the masses really, the other ones are clearly stuff made for nerds. No woman ever will use that.

Once again thanks to everyone! Grin

I'll try each for a week and see how they work and will go with the best one and share which one I chose, but more suggestions are appreciated?
