It's a good wallet for newbies. +1 for blockchain.info Client side encryption, email backups, and yet dead simple to use. Quote Does anyone know a good wallet that is newbie friendly and with no fee? If you really object to paying a 5c fee, then expect your transactions to take a day or more to get confirmed. Blockchain.info has the benefit that it acts like a supernode in broadcasting the transaction out to as many nodes as possible, so even without a fee >90% of the Bitcoin nodes are aware of your transaction and will likely process it when they are idle. Quote OP needs no fees And blockchain.info supports no fees, it also prompts you to confirm so if you have no fees set by default, and you do initiate a more time sensitive transfer, it's just 1 click to add the standard BTC0.005 fee.

They are usually quite low. But many of the wallets listed are good ones when you do feel the need to pay a fee.

There are fees associated with spending lots of small inputs, so if you've received dozens of transactions of 0.00003827 BTC or similar, it may very well wind up costing more in transaction fees to spend your funds then they're worth, and it won't really matter what wallet client you use. That's just how the system works. :-\ |
