Bitcoin Forum

I'm trying to create a "best Bitcoin wallet (http://99bitcoins.com/best-bitcoin-wallet-2015-bitcoin-wallets-comparison-review/)" page - basically showing a comparison of the different Bitcoin wallets (since there are so many out there). I was wondering what do you think should be the features I should be measuring - currently I took only basic features into account since this page is aimed at beginners so I don't want to get to technical.

No offense but to be honest, it is odd that you considered coinbase to be the best wallet IMHO, when the users don't have access of the private keys at all...

blockchain is the best online wallet and  electrum is lightweight pc wallet.

i like blockchain very much...

fastest and easy...

for pc i think the best choose is standard QT-Wallet...

Coinbase for best wallet provider they must have made a big typo over there. there's no way it's THE BEST.
New users no do mislead to that list this bs, In my list there's blockchain, Armory, Electrum then multibit.

I found it pretty nice and really useful , but weird how you didn't mention any Desktop wallet :o they are way better then the Online wallet (web based)

Webbased online wallet: Blockchain
Client wallet (installed on pc): Electrum
Hardware wallet: Trezor

I recently aquired the Trezor, and it's a really nice hardware wallet. Very easy to use and very secure. Only minor is that there seems to be a kind of bug wich shows some transactions as unconfirmed, while the blockchain clearly shows many confirmations. But this is known and really no problem, and I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

i agree with previous comments and say best Web-based online wallet: Blockchain.info
installed on pc wallet: Electrum

and to answer your question

1. is the desktop wallet full node or uses SPV
2. do you have control over your wallet like access to the private keys
3. how long was the wallet around and what is the popularity
4. add some explanation to somethings like why Blockchain privacy is weak but coinbase is moderate?!
5. what sources did you use

Blockchain is good

but remember to proctect your wallet acc with sms/email verification on every transaction

Good edvice. Thanks!   :)

I did it with a newbie orientation - since that's what my site is about. Also Coinbase just released Coinbase Vault (https://www.coinbase.com/vault) which lets you have full control over your Bitcoins.


Can you please explain shortly why you think these are the best ?


Awesome thanks a lot!
