Title: Which wallet do you use? Post by: uMMcQxCWELNzkt on April 22, 2013, 03:52:34 PM At the moment I am using Bitcoin-QT which works fine, however out of curiosity I would like to know which wallet(s) you use, trust and why? Looking at Bitcoin.org these are some of the options although I am sure other alternatives are available.
Software Wallet
Mobile Wallet
Web Wallet
Title: Re: Which wallet do you use? Post by: WackyWilly on April 22, 2013, 04:25:28 PM Hi, using Bitcoin-QT for that. On a severely secured PC. And once I don't need my bitcoins, the wallet.dat file is removed, since I do not want any excess vulnerability as to my wallet.
For this very same reason I'm not using any mobile wallet, nor any web wallet. I don't trust other parties with it. Title: Re: Which wallet do you use?

First thing to learn about btc is how to secure your BTC local and OFFLINE...OFFLINE only.. Cheerzzzzz ;D ;D ;D ;D Title: Re: Which wallet do you use? Post by: uMMcQxCWELNzkt on April 22, 2013, 04:39:34 PM Yeah I have never and never will consider storing large sums in online wallets without an imminent transaction in mind. I was mainly curious about the offline wallets as I have never seen them mentioned in threads before.

It has been a RAM hog but that has been improved. Down side (depending on your outlook) is you need bitcoin-qt to have the blockchain on your machine for at least hot wallets. Not needed on a cold wallet storage. This is being worked on now I am pretty sure. Title: Re: Which wallet do you use? Post by: Dr.Steve on April 22, 2013, 05:51:30 PM paper for me.
I generated the addressed offline, printed them up as certificates, had them laminated. then send btc to the funding address. Now they rest securely offline with a copy in a second location to protect against destruction by fire. Title: Re: Which wallet do you use?
