i dont think you should try a bitcoin wallet these times. The coin is to new and so are the bitcoin wallets i dont trust my coins into them. What i do trust is my money on a normal bank. Banks will always be there and cant steal your money that you cant do anything about it such as bitcoins.

After I saw bitcoin wallet was hacked, I start to think that right now bitcoin wallet isn't the safest way to store my money. At this time, I think banks are better if you want to store your money securely. There's an alternative way if you want to store your money as bitcoin. You can use cold storage or paper wallet. They are better than online wallet Smiley

Of course i will pick bitcoin wallet, Its very easy to use. No requirement required upon the registration, Easy to deposit bitcoin, No hassle when it comes to transaction
Yes anyone can start using bitcoin, right after the moment he decided to. Bitcoin is going to facilitate banking feature to each and every citizen of this world as it does not require any documentation or charges to start with.
Well it's kinda obvious that almost everyone of us here will choose bitcoin wallet over banks because this is a bitcoin forum and the advantage that bitcoin has against banks is transparency, in which wallets are able to provide and banks are not.

I think for security in bitcoin wallet it depends on you. because you are giving additional security in your wallet? I provide authentication sms for my wallet and for three years I was in bitcoin. bitcoin I have never stolen or hacked?

Some people is negligent to maintaining their bitcoin wallet. carelessly to downloading file have a ransomware can steal their bitcoin wallet data.
Bitcoin wallet was hacked,maybe it's just a human error of bitcoin wallet owner.

Exactly. The one who blamed if wallet was hacked or lost is the bitcoin owner itself. There are lots of precautions and security measures to have your bitcoin be safe.

Another story if the user uses web wallet then suddenly the company turn to a fraud.

The most are using them both and I'm also using them both, you are right about that.
To be honest I even like them both and I think banks are more powerful these days.

And yep you are right guys it is better to use both as per bitcoin is for bitcoin wallet and your fiat money it's up to you if you are going to save it to your bank account or you are just going to store that to your vault in your house.

There are allot of people who thinks bitcoin wallets are save enough to use but it is not so. Use banks these days there are allot of scammers around the bitcoin wallets dont trust them.
Scammers or robbers are not new only because of bitcoin ecosystem. They are keep on existing and your fiats are too vulnerable to any possibility of threatening by them.  In my experience using bitcoin wallet is more safer than bank accounts as I believe on strong password encryption.

if there are only bitcoin wallets i would use them but there are also banks who can keep your money save instead of the wallets who cant. So use banks money is what they can keep save not your worthless coins.
But I feel happy that I have two options to save my money. I feel the money in bank is lesser safer than with my bitcoins. In future, I will have only one that will be based on convenience, definitely only bitcoin.

It depends.

Bitcoin Wallet:
  • Your money can increase/decrease from time to time.
  • Secured as long as you protect your key.
  • The only one you have to trust is yourself.
  • Versatility and Availability: you can use it in a lot of ways. Anywhere.

Bank Account:
  • You have to trust the bank with your money.
  • You can gain interest (through time deposit) but very slow.
  • Security for me is better here. Because this is in the mainstream unlike bitcoin.

It all depends on what kind of currency you have an what you want to get out of it.

If you want interest, go for a bank. It's probably your best bet when it comes to safely making a return on your investment, even if it is getting outpaced by inflation.

If you want a Bitcoin wallet, however, that's your best bet for taking security into your own hands. No return, but you can make it basically 100% secure and your account will never be frozen or anything.
