Because it is for their own extra security and for trading and some other stuff
I myself use 5 accounts for storing my btc and 7other accounts for trading.

For me that is not bad at all because sometimes you need to do a quick & urgent online payment here you need to have online wallet as well as blockchain.info or other trusted sites but do not forget to enable 2 factor authentication .
For long time investing & holding here you need to have paper-wallet or offline USB encrypt wallet.

For me im using some wallet because i want to be anonymous and i dont want to hack my wallet to someone else.
and also i dont want to trace my transaction so i am using many wallet to defense my anonymity..
Your wallet don't provide you any anonymity but you can be traced by the IP of the transaction.It takes a hell lot of effort to cover that up and increases more risks cause you are going insane levels to stay anony.

I'm using qt wallet as well as online ones. QT is where most of my btcs are while I keep some in online wallets as well so I can use them anytime anywhere without me bringing my laptop. Security is for QT wallets while Mobility is for online wallets.

Every wallet has their own advantage imo and can be used for different situations. Helps to have to multiple to access from. As long as you have the private keys safely secured, doesn't matter how many you own.

I am using a few, I do it because I am gambling sometimes. I always label each so I could see where are each transaction came from Smiley

Sooner or later you will find only your sum of bitcoins and leave off your labels and it's origin. It's from my experience.
But it's a good practice to label wallets and address for future reference.

I have paper wallet, electrum, blockchain.info, Bitcoin core wallet for the different purposes and safety of my Bitcoin.

Wow you really have too many wallets.
I think most people use just blokchain and now a days electrum is getting famous too.
I dont knwo the real use of using so many wallets, other than safety. I still stick with my blockchain wallet because it provides me more portability for my bitcoins, as I travel more I can access my bitcoins from any city without need of my laptop.


Maybe people have so many purses because they want to earn big profits from bitcoin.
Yes I think it does not matter as long as it can be maintained and managed properly

Maybe they are trying to know the best bitcoin wallets.
That's why they are testing them all.
it could have been, but maybe they do not want to track who is using the wallet, or she also checks every wallet and compare it, but it's still a possibility

I doubt people use lots of Bitcoin Wallets at once. There is a wide variety of wallets to choose from, depending on how secure and lightweight you want it to be. Generally, the more secure ones would be Armory and Bitcoin Core but they requires a significant amount of disk space and resources in general. Electrum and Multibit are SPV wallets and they are great for daily use while requiring little disk space.

because if something happens to my other wallet than I have the other one that is working good.
Is just for safety purpuse that in the future my wallets are still fine. Cheesy

One of way if bitcoin wallet not working should have been and  can't fix that is make an another account . You did right way, friend.
