Bitcoin Forum

Hello Everyone,

This forum has been extremely useful and helped me find a wallet for me. I am really curious what wallets other users use, so I created this short survey. I'll share the results when it's done!



https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HD5GKRQ

Will wait for the result although mostly I use MEW, eidoo wallet and there's one that's coming out, Ethos.

Hardware wallet for storing cryptocurrencies (wallets like Trezor and Ledger Nano).

I do the same and also use MEW for tokens. Hopefully I will be using a new EOS wallet soon too!

I used Myetherwaller for sometimes to store my tokens but now I am fun of metamask. Metamask seems more secured than MEW

Why do you need all that information though? Nationality? Gender? Age? What are you planning on doing with that information?

Using Coinbase as a wallet is definitely a bad idea. Read: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1631151.0

There is no best wallet, everything depends on the one's needs.
That's why I created YT channel with wallet reviews, first one on the list is Copay and the possibility of setting up multisignature wallet from it:

True. Though in my opinion, the best should be the most secure. So obviously, hardware wallets like the Trezor[1] and the Ledger Nano S[2] are the way to go. Nice video though! Copay was one of the first bitcoin wallets I used.

Coinbase/gdax for exchange wallet and Electrum for desktop wallet.

got some interesting responses....seems like most people just use exchange wallets

exodus & metamask

NICE! Appreciate you offering to share the results once you have them compiled.









Are any of you guys completely the survey? The OP asked for you to complete a survey!

What particular token or coin are you going to store? most of them has their own and unique wallet.
if you are talking about btc and eth im using blockchain, for ETH and tokens Myetherwallet, Imtoken.
but I suggest using a wallet with an app to avoid some phishing like blockchain, Coinbase (not able to store token right now)
Imtoken is good for bounty wallet it can store every ETH tokens. Using their site is also safe as long you always read the url of the site if its correct before entering your details.

MJ, why do you say this? The opening post of the thread you've provided the link for says nothing negative about Coinbase. Coinbase isn't called out as a mobile wallet, but there's certainly no reference to Coinbase being a "bad idea". Can you direct us the specific posts within the 15 pages of the thread?

Thanks.

I use enjin and eidoo wallet. So easy to use unlike other wallet especially to beginners in crypto.

I use Electrum, mainly because it is available in TAILS Linux. It is packed with features such as Pay to many, CPFP, ability to manually select fee, BIP173 (bech32) and the ability to use hardware wallets, choosing between bip44, bip49 or bip84. As well, you can load transactions using id, tx file, or qr code. But, probably my most favourite feature is the ability to use tor.

EDIT: I forgot to add the ability to sign/verify messages.

I use coinbase and my etherwallet. And I think both are simple and secure. Especially coinbase is great.

thanks guys for the response here, but nobody seems to have done the survey  :(

MetaMask: To trade ETH based tokens.

Exchange: For now I keep my coins there due to the export fees they charge. I just hope that the exchange is legit and stay safe until I settle the cryptos someday.

Mobile Wallets: CoPay and BRD because they are easy to access with PIN.

Also, I completed your survey.

I choose a purse between waves or ERC20

I use Atomic Wallet, cos there is an Atomic Swaps option.

Finished the survey  ;D

I had the same question not to long ago. Decided to go for Jaxx wallet, after reading a (for me as a newbie) useful crypto wallet guide (http://"https://kriptomat.io/en/best-bitcoin-wallet-crypto-wallet-security/")

I guess it all depends on how often you want to buy/sell, trade? and if you trust the platform or not.

Worst case, get a paper wallet, turn it into a steel wallet, put it into a safe and put that safe in a bank :D

Prefer to use MyEther Wallet and Ledger, think its the most efficient way to keep your tokens safe.
But some of my crypto is on exchange account with 2FA

I mainly use bellow wallets.

MyEtherwallet: Eth based token(ERC20 tokens)
Aphelion wallet: Neo based Token(NEP5  tokens - Aphelion is the new good desktop and mobile wallet for neo-based tokens and it is easy to use than other neo wallets.)
Blockchain.info: for bitcoin

I could afford to hardware wallet it is the safest place to store your cryptocurrency. I prefer Ledger nano s version.

Will it really depends on your preference like I used mycelium wallet for like 2 years and has recently switch to green wallet because they support segwit. Also I like to use electrum wallet on my desktop and in addition to all of this I have a paper wallet from the beginning of my journey in the Bitcoin system.

Ledger Nano S is the best wallet in the market which can support all the major coins. I am using at the moment and its very easy for the noob like me.I think it’s safe, and have my crypto on ledger. I have both the blue and the nano s.

It's safe to say the general consensus is the hardware wallets like Trezor or Ledger Nano. They're very secure and people tend to have good things to say about them.

Good luck with the survey!  :)

Most altcoins have wallet which can be downloaded on your windows or phone. But for ERC20 tokens, it is highly recommended to use myetherwallet to store your coins. If is bitcoin. ,I use blochain.info, an online wallet to save my bitcoin

I am using myetherwallet and metamask for eth and eth based token and always kept my private key in my safe place.Coinbase and blockchain for BTC wallet and this wallet very easy and safe.So if you new this forum try to use this wallet and i hope its best for you.You can find different types of destop wallet and offline wallet like nano and trezor

There are various types of wallets in the worls. They are etherium based, bitcoin based, neo based etc. So we have to be careful when we choosing a proper wallet to store our tokens and coins. Because some people always trying to hack our wallets and takeout our tokens and coins. So we have to think about the security system of this wallets. I am personally using etherium based wallet. It is "myetherwallet". It is quite good wallet to safegurad our tokens and coins. But the disadvantage of this wallet is, we cannot store btc based or neo based coins and tokens in myetherwallet. Because it is etherium based wallet. So we need to make bicoin based wallet to store bitcoin based tokens and coins. This is a simple introduction to wallets in my opinion. Be careful when you use your private key.

Isn't that a bit subjective? "The best"... There are a few wallet providers like Ledger, and who is to say, that they are not all equally good?

Coinbase and myether wallet.

Myether wallet.

Use only imtoken and website to save, it is still very good, because the use of many people, very at ease.

I use blockchain wallet and imToken. Those two are very convenient

I use myetherwallet and metamask, and I recommend using these 2 wallets

For bitcoin i use coinbase wallet ,for ethereum i use myetherwallet and for dogecoin i use my.dogechain wallet

I'm using a Ledger hardware wallet.As far as I know this is the safest wallet with TREZOR.

I use MyEtherWallet but sooner or later when I have money I would buy more secured wallets like ledger or metamask. It is recommended by MEW itself because more wallets means your savings won't be stolen in one swoop if it happens.

Recently, I very often start use metamask and consider it one of the safest ways to hold my tokens. It is attached to the mail and your password

Much better if you used Metamask more secure if you want to check your token balance you can connect to MEW so you dont need a JSON by doing that

I use coinbase and myetherwallet. this two wallet are the best.  It's easy to use and safest.

My personal favorire and i have been using for alnost a year is IMTOKEN. I love this wallet that i have already forgotten using MEW.

I am mostly using myetherwallet,this is really good & secure wallet for me.I have no face any kind of problem for using this.I am also sometimes used coinbase.but after all,myetherwallet best for me.

If you choose, it's better among the most popular hardware wallets Ledger, Kepkey, Trezor. Although they have a relatively high price. But there are far fewer possible vulnerabilities. So it is better to give them preference. Especially if it's about the exchange there https://changevisor.com/bitcoin-best-rate-sell (https://changevisor.com/bitcoin-best-rate-sell), which I often use for the optimal choice.

Coinbase, myetherwallet and offline wallet.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies give us the power to control our values with ourselves and hence I am a great fan of the offline wallets. For me, it doesn't make any sense to hold funds online on any exchange or web wallet if we can hold it completely offline. As of now, I am using the paper wallet as my in cold storage and then I am using Trezor hardware wallet from the flexibility point of view. I also use web wallet but never keep more than 5% of my funds online.

Ledger basicly. And if a coin does not support ledger, well I just pick a desktop wallet form their website.

I usually use a mew purse to store the tokens but I also use a binace

Ledger Nano S and paper wallet

I only use myetherwallet wallet.  I still have enough. And he on this moment me well suits

Coins.ph  IM.TOKEN
 And COINSBASE
 This 3 Wallet I Use  Now :)

Partially true. Some exchanges (like Coinbase) offer the user a hot-wallet as well.

Now, in terms of security that's debatable, given how "trusted" they are and all - can they really afford to mess with your funds?

On the other hands, it's more convenient for the average user, than actually getting a personal wallet (MEW, Ledger...), since it takes zero to no effort setting that up.

That being said, a good exchange / crypto platform should really keep most of it's assets in a cold storage somewhere (for everybody's safety) and show, that they are actually licensed to provide such a wallet service.

I'll stick to Jaxx and get a Ledger later on. When I was researching wallets, this article really helped me out a lot - https://kriptomat.io/en/best-bitcoin-wallet-crypto-wallet-security/ (https://kriptomat.io/en/best-bitcoin-wallet-crypto-wallet-security/)

For Ethereum, I use imToken- android wallet,while for bitcoin I use blockchain.info

In terms of huge invest in cryptcurrency then I always consider hardware wallet like ledger nano s as it is most powerful and secured crypto wallet with great and mind-blowing features :) The fact is if you are short term trader then you can use coinbase or respective crypto exchange but it;s not fully safe as many exchage site  got hacked :(
