Title: Recommend me user friendly wallet services in which I can control my public key
Post by: nyanhtet on March 25, 2017, 12:14:30 PM
I am not fan of bitcoin, but my friend is. He need to move his BTCs to some secure services from coinbase due to bitcoin hard fork in which he can control his private key. Also need to be user friendly. Please recommend me. All answers really appreciate.

Download multibit on your desktop or laptop. The interface is user friendly.

You could suggest him to use Electrum wallet.Im using it for the past two years.I had no issues with it.It generates a seed during registration which you can use to recover your account in case of your laptop failure or if you forget your pasword.

Electrum will support on bitcoin hard fork? How about blockchain.info? Coinbase announced customers to withdrawal during hard fork. Thank for answers.

Electrum already has support for a possible network split, yes.

I consider myself quite fortunate as a newbie when googling for a bitcoin wallet that I settled for Electrum to download and install. It was very easy to use, and as I later discovered is perfect for any security concerns. Very lightweight, very quick.
