Title: whats your second favorite wallet?
Post by: jonald_fyookball on May 05, 2014, 08:44:14 PM
dont get me wrong i LOVE Electrum....

but i want to try something else just to
put my eggs in a few different baskets.

What else is hot? 

Is there anything else where i dont
need the whole blockchain and
also gives me a deterministic seed?

Dark Wallet is NOWHERE NEAR complete... (so don't send your real bitcoins to it)

BUT they have an alpha version out now that allows you to create a TESTNET wallet (with free coins to play around with) so you can see all the features.

I think they will be a good alternative to Electrum.

If Electrum's Kivy Android wallet comes out, though... Electrum's going to be #1 for a while imo.

If Dark Wallet came out with a feature final version including Android client tomorrow, I might switch over... but they have a ways to go.

The only other mainstream deterministic wallet is armory and that requires the whole blockchain.

I used blockchain.info in the past and for newbies with small amounts it is ok. You just need to set a really good password.

I'd like to see multibit-HD in action. That sounds like a good wallet to me.

Second wallet, for small amounts (even thought it seems to be secure) GreenAddress.it

Until Electrum Kivy is out and I get a damn Android.
