Bitcoin-qt

As others have said the whole point of this was to stay away from third parties/ centralization.

Also I have my big boy pants on and I feel like I can handle my own shit

Since nobody replied to my post about cold storage, and I've noticed there are several more people recommending blockchain.info despite the recent attacks, I'd just like to add that if you do use blockchain.info, it would behoove you to enable 2-factor authentication (SMS confirmation texts) and consider using the "disable TOR access" and "restrict IP address" options. It might also be wise to create a new wallet every so often, or to keep small amounts in separate wallets. And of course, if you are going to be using bitcoin, it is absolutely imperative that you use reputable antivirus and antimalware solutions. Your whole life you've been hearing about protecting yourself from hackers and viruses, well now it REALLY matters (not to imply that it didn't before, but you know what I mean). Take the necessary steps, protect yourself. You'll be glad you did later.

I've been using Electrum and blockchain, both are easy to use and navigate.  Electrum has worked well for cold storage.

I'm using blockchain.info.
It's decent, allows multiple wallets, and mobile linking.

bitcoin-qt. the whole point of bitcoin is to be able to remove trust from third parties, so to me, it doesn't really make sense to use anything else.

thanks,

MultiBit, because it doesn't have to download the entire block chain.

Bitcoin QT, Multibit and Blockchain.info.

Wallets are free so you can have many. I also have several bank accounts, it's just normal.

I'm using blockchain.  I think the risk of me doing something crappy with my wallet is greater than the risk of it being lost online at the moment.

So which wallet are people using?

I know there's the "official" Bitcoin-Qt, but also Electrum, Armory, MultiBit, etc. So far, I've been using Qt but am getting annoyed at the transaction fees I have been paying to send BTC.

Any suggestions, and please give a reason. Thanks!

Bitcoin-Qt and namecoind here.

I don't have a problem with the transaction fees on Bitcoin-Qt.  They're very very low, and as a miner I realise that the future viability of the network may in part depend on transaction fees.  Consider it a very small tip Wink

I was using the Armory but it and the standard bitcoin-qt one were eating up too much of my hard drive space so I had to uninstall.  Right now I just have all my funds in mtgox and bitstamp...not sure how smart that is but at least I can sell my BTC quickly if price starts to plummet. 

why would you sell while the price is plummeting  Huh sell when its high buy when its plummeting.
