How many bitcoin address you have right now? why you have more than one?

[LuckyYOU]

I have a couple of online wallets because I believe it's safer to spread your bitcoins rather than having it all stacked up in 1 wallet

It's better to have it spread out.

Same for me.  It took me awhile to branch out but I did and am glad I have multiple wallets.

...So creating many addresses doesn't seem to affect bitcoin network...

I think you do not "create" bitcoin addresses... They already exist.

Right, every bitcoin address already exists.  It's simply that a keypair (private key, public key) combination is found. Because it's impossible to guess a private key, it's said that a person 'owns' the bitcoins.

How much bitcoin address do you have and why you have to create more than one address?

I have two bitcoin address now. Once for Xapo, one for Blockchain. I usually use Blockchain for any transaction before this, but when i knew that Xapo didn't take any fee for transaction, thats why i created that wallet address. But, now, i use Blockchain again because all my payment  goes to this wallet.

I got multiple wallets for different reasons, I like to keep some things separate from the other so I know where the money is coming from on each account.

I like to do it this way, just because I like to have it organized like that and it's better to have multiple wallets, don't think it's safe to have all your bitcoins in 1 wallet

[ThunderThomas]

I got around 4 or 5 online wallets, and one offline wallet I got on a PC

I got a couple online since that's where I'm putting the bitcoins I'll be using and the offline wallet is for saving and stacking up bitcoins.

I've got 3. One cold storage, one blockchain.info wallet and one hot wallet.

To people with more than 20 wallets: WTF.

The OP asking about Bitcoin address, not the wallet. Do you guys even know what is the different between Bitcoin "address" and Bitcoin "Wallet"?

[pereira4]

I probably have almost near 100 since I have used always a different one each time, considering i have been in the game for a couple of years now and always have tried to never reuse addresses as most people should be doing, so yeah around that. I don't even keep track anymore.

[tiggytomb]

I have a few,some on the exchanges also and they can change from time to time but I don't really need hundreds it's easier for me to just have a few.

[kyrios_]

Is is safer to have a few, one for each use?

[frendsento]

At this moment I have 0.2 worth of bitcoins , I won it at a raffle promo.

[delliaerd]

i have 4 different address so far,why i have more than one? i have different address for different purpose like saving btc, trading, or gambling

That's a good idea to separate them. It is inspires me to do like that and keep spirit looking for bitcoin

[lemons]

I only have 1 bitcoin address

[delliaerd]

Just have one bitcoin address is enough to make me tired.  Bitcoin in my wallet is not more than 20K sathosi. But i don't give up

[eternalgloom]

I have 2 cold storage wallets and 3 regular wallets for daily spending.

I use multiple wallets because i want to keep some of them private and others to use in public, like on this forum.

Um.. excuse me sir, the OP asked about how many BITCOIN ADDRESS do you have, not how much Bitcoin do you have.

I only have 1 bitcoin address

It's totally not safe for you, if someone hack your wallet or maybe you lost the private key then you will lose everything.

[ShrykeZ]

Used to have a lot of cold storage addresses, merged them into 2 cold addresses now and I have ~4 normal use addresses with 1 of these being a heavy use address, reason being just for filtration purposes of different income methods and the heavily used address is just my general spending address.

If someone does hack your wallet, all your addresses would also get hacked if you placed them altogether. It's 2015, is there anyone still not having a backup to their private key? There is no risk from hacking even if you reuse the address right now, it is only about the privacy.
