I see many products that create wallets with new addresses.  But what is to stop some of those addresses from being the same? Could an address that matches one already in service be created?

How could a person "hack my account".  If they did that would they not have access to all 100 addresses?

Can you explain how I could lose an address? Is that possible?

What do you mean "The security is not to the standards of Bitcoin core though." ?

Does the bitcoin core wallet not require you to download the blockchain?  How does it compare with other wallets for features?

What is the security problem you have with Electrum?  How about other wallets, do you feel others offer better security / features? 

If I understand it correctly the Trezor wallet creates 100 address and provides seed words to recreate these later if the device stops working.

But when I create a paper wallet then just one address is created.

What's the advantage of creating a large number of addresses and why do hardware wallets like Trezor create so many?

Can anyone comment on the differences between these two exchanges? 

I'd like to get some ideas from people who have used them recently.  For example which one is the bigger of the two, do they both have the same charges and does one have any advantage over the other?

I'm not asking you to share your personal details but what would you suggest I use for cold storage.  One problem I have is that I have no access to a safe deposit box so it would be difficult for me to use a paper wallet. I saw Xapo and was wondering about using that service. 

I'm trying to understand how these work.  From what I understand so far the Trezor or KeepKey contain a "private key" that's used to sign a transaction.

I watched a couple of videos but most just show how the devices operate and don't give a high level view of what each actually does.

Can someone explain to me how this works in a few more words.  Does the Trezor or KeepKey generate a wallet address for example.  Also I understand if I lose either then I can restore if I know a set of words.  But how does that actually work?

I would like to have a wallet on my mobile to hold a small amount of bitcoin.  One that I was considering was the blockchain wallet which I believe is both a web and mobile wallet. Has anyone used this and would the recommend it?  I'm also interested to hear if anyone considers other wallets to be better or have more security. Thanks

I would like to store some bitcoins on a software wallet.  But it seems like there are quite a few of these and new ones coming up all of the time.

For a newcomer like me can someone suggest which are the most popular?

And why are they all buying today?

I've been watching the price go up steadily the last 24 hours. Anyone have any idea what's behind this price move?

It was my understanding that both coinbase and xapo had insurance up to a certain amount but I need to recheck.

I recently asked where people were storing their bitcoins. Most of the replies were cold storage but from what I see that meant offline, on an offline PC, paper wallet etc.

Is anyone out there using any of - Coinbase vaults or Xapo for offline storage?  How about other options that don't require paper or offline PCs etc?

 

I've seen a few mentions of "cold storage".

I'd appreciate hearing how and where? 

Thanks

How do I store bitcoins on blockchain.info?  Sorry if it's a basic question but I'm very new to bitcoin.

Any suggestions on where a person who has already purchased bitcoins through Coinbase / circle should store them? I'm open to any suggestions from members. Thanks

I just posted a question about Gemini on another thread.  I guess we were both wondering the same thing and composing at the same time.
