Post by: godkas on August 11, 2013, 02:06:33 PM I'm pretty partial to using local wallets, mainly because they dont take an exorbitant unjustifiable amount for transactions such as many of the online wallet services.....

If you use online wallet, be sure to use two factor authentication as well Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: jprice on August 11, 2013, 02:25:04 PM I use Armory and Multibit. It would only be Armory if it would run on my Mac.

Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: jgrayjr on August 11, 2013, 05:11:09 PM Great! Thanks guys. I just noticed the alert to update Android wallets... Scary!!! I think i will go the route of cold storage and leaving just enough BTC on my android wallet that I will spend.

Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: Kyle91 on August 11, 2013, 11:27:07 PM i like blockchain, it is the most secure. Even more if you enable TFA in which it sends a code to your email in order to log in.
Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: infobiactrader on August 12, 2013, 08:46:43 AM Multibit is my favorite. I started using blockchain, but then I heard all these horror stories of people getting hacked so I decided to go local.

I started using blockchain, but then I heard all these horror stories of people getting hacked so I decided to go local. well, there are even more horror stories from people eating trojans and losing their wallet. I'd say the chances are higher than to lose your online wallet. If you own a large amount of btc I'd use a cold storage though Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: darkhunter on August 12, 2013, 09:28:04 AM armory with cold storage.. no questions about that.. if you have some BTC summed up, better save than sorry ;-)

Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: fleedi on August 12, 2013, 08:17:47 PM I kind of prefer blockchain. Never any issues.
Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: CrashX on August 12, 2013, 08:25:16 PM Im also new to BTC but after reading and reading /
I decided to go with Block Chain they look legit. They have pretty good security measures in place. < Even thought some user claim that they got jacked. But most likely it was their fault, being that BlockChain give you the option to download all Private Key in a single hash file. https://blockchain.info/wallet Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins?

Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: flipper on August 13, 2013, 04:29:05 AM Use multiple online wallets for frequent transactions. Never keep all your coins in one basket. Use paper wallets for long term coin storage.
Title: Re: What is the best wallet to use for bitcoins? Post by: Dakota on August 13, 2013, 07:05:23 AM Been using blockchain, happy with options, and have never had an issue of any kind.
