Maybe they think using many bitcoin
address then the transaction will be
more secure

I also think the same reason behind this. More address may be easy for fast transactions.

I use 5 bitcoin wallets. just don't want to put all of my eggs in one container.
it's too much. there will be no wallet hack into your account if you use a lot of security. useless to use a lot of wallets. but no authentication

Guys wallets are using in more numbers because People use to work in many kind bitcoin works like trading, lending, account selling and more. So want that to be anonymous way. This is the exact reason.
yeah but i think for more simple and that is not too complicated. You can use multiple addresses and be able to name it for a specific function. more easier

To be on the safe side, people uses many wallets and reason for this is that they
want to be safe that if one wallet is lost, they have another one. and all their coins are not lost at once.

It is very good to use. And it is also very safe and secure and I think that is the most important. That it must be very safe.
Some people around me dont even trust Bitcoin and that is the problem. I hope that more people will use it later in the future.

First of all, I am very thankful for everyone spamming on this topic as now there is a lot of posts on here and I am very proud of myself for this achievement. There can be a huge wallet hack and even if you have good security, you might lose everything.

Actually the ppl who use most bitcoin address is the exchanges, bitcoin startups who always creates new address for deposits,  then transfer out the deposits.

I think using many bitcoin wallets is for security and if you had 1 wallet only has disadvantage
 ex. When you only have 1 wallet and  got hack and all your funds are there so there will no left  for you instead if you  have 2 or 3 more wallets you can divide your funds in there


like you Im using some wallet too, electrum wallet(Pc+anroid), mycellium wallet (android), coinbase web based, xapo at web based and android , and the paper wallet.
use many wallets is good for security, I have bad experience with blockchain.info, now im leave it.

The reason behind the usage of various wallets is to make transactions much secure and anonymous.

Yes, lot of wallets (some times address) may end up in mess. Practical approach must be, use one or two wallet types for some time like 3 or 6 months. Then make them cold storage and move to different wallet type.
These all for the bitcoiners who want to save bitcoins for years.
Luckily I am already doing that, but not intentionally. I love trying new wallets but when moves to new one I back up old one and put in offline. I still in search of features rich wallet which makes me trying out new wallets.

Why did you make that much bitcoin wallet? Does every bitcoin wallet will store income from a different place or what?

According to my store bitcoin in many places does not affect anything for security.

The reason behind using more than one wallet is diversification which may save someone from loosing all his/her bitcoin.

It's a wise idea and it's always better to to use at least 3 wallets where the amount can be divided and kept safe. So if one wallet become scam, that person will be able to survive some of its coin.

I myself use one desktop wallet and two online wallets.

these days lots of people get interested in hacking and try to steal others bitcoins. So to be on the safer
side people prefer various online and offline wallets which makes them feel their bitcoins are really safe.
I think even though we have many bitcoin wallet if it is stolen coin is there still be taken and can not go back. Maybe we have to be careful to keep bitcoin to be safe. And I think some of the bitcoin wallet already have good security.

Everyone finds something they like with each wallet and I think it is fine to use multiple wallets if you find good things with each wallet. Wallets have specific advantages for each...
