Should i change my wallet?

[LiteCoinGuy]

I access it from my phone, my tablet, my laptop, my desktop, and my computer at work. I have electrum on my laptop.

I bet, that except computer at work (where you had phone anyway), electrum or any other light client may be installed on all devices. it is your choice for sure, but using web wallet if you had so much options just because you are lazy is simply non-sense and basically doesn't matter, how much BTC you had stored here..

for android is quite tricky to use electrum, anyway you can use mycelium and import electrum address..

there is no problem when you use blockchain.info for pocket money dude.

Like this you don't change the wallet address

I do not have any experience w/ electrum or mycelium so cannot offer anything useful there.  But, I use blockchain.info's wallet for small transactions and everyday situations.  I keep relatively small amounts there as I too have had a "security issue" using it.  It's easy to use and has the nice SharedCoin service.

For larger amounts of BTC, I keep them on a Ledger Nano and a Trezor.  I like them both.

LiteCoinGuy has a great thread on hardware wallets.  Lots of useful information!

no, electrum or multibit is ok for every day usage, I really don't see any point to use web wallets these days...any device, which can access web wallet had some application for its own platform.
can you please explain, why you are recommending such non-sense like web wallet?

I like Blockchain.info because my wallet is available on every device.

yes cool, what device/platform you are using for secured accessing blockchain.info and is not-compatible with electrum?

I access it from my phone, my tablet, my laptop, my desktop, and my computer at work. I have electrum on my laptop.

Why do you want to use it, on all this devices? If one of this devices is hacked, your Bitcoin are gone.
In my opinion, it is sufficient, do just use your smartphone for daily transaction, since every other device can just give you the QR-Code to make a transaction.
For larger amounts use a paper wallet or a hardware wallet.

Please do have in mind that never relay on one wallet, you need to always have a at lease 2 that you use and try to keep on offline just to be more secure, if you want to keep using blockchain.infos wallet is fine but try to keep your bitcoin off a web interface anything could happen.

Should i change my wallet im experiencing lots of bugs with blockchain.info , but i still dont know if i should change or what other wallet i should get ,i like the onlines one because im scared that if something happens to my pc i couldent login to my wallet

can someone please tell me what i should do ?
should i change my wallet?

For web wallet, you can try BitGo or GreenAddress. Just don't store big amount on web wallet and exchanger.

I personally use my own PC and i used Electrum, easy to use, secure wallet.

Im still confused if i should change,everybody knows me by my main address and it would be wierd for me to change it

Use an import/export feature, move to other wallet.

so here is a question if import my private key to a desktop wallet(electrum) will i be able to ue both of the wallets with same address? so that i can use the address on blockchain and electrum?

[bornil267645]

Don't make the mistake of using online wallet for handling majority of your coin. Use a paper wallet and store them off-line. And for the online ones, I think electrum is probably the best.

[gogxmagog]

I think it should be considered common knowledge that online wallets = unsafe. They are used for hot wallets, sure but you still need to bring cash in case the wallet provider craps out with your 50 bucks to pay for dinner or what have you.
Use a hardware wallet for significant amounts & then experiment with all the clients

whoever has the private keys to a bitcoin address can use that coins that are in that address, so yes, if you import your privatekeys from you bc.i account into Electrum you can use that address to send from.

but try to use a fresh created address and sweep the old keys instead of importing them. it is much safer this way.

Yes. However, if the client sends the change to the other addresses, only the client can control it since blockchain.info doesn't have knowledge of the private key or address.

I think it should be considered common knowledge that online wallets = unsafe. They are used for hot wallets, sure but you still need to bring cash in case the wallet provider craps out with your 50 bucks to pay for dinner or what have you.

They aren't very unsafe. They can be safe when the code is open sourced and 2FA is used. For hardware wallet, I wouldn't recommend anything that is too expensive. A simple offline raspberry pi would be enough for high security. Transactions can be signed on the offline computer and broadcast on the online computer hence, the private key is never exposed to the web.
