(POLL) Which wallet do you think is best with the best features?

[SISAR]

Bitcoin Core has the best features for me. I only need to be able to send and receive transactions, and also signing messages. That for me is all I need.

+1

As far as I know Bitcoin Core (or XT) are the only wallets that do not relly on some 3rd parties so if you are serious about the whole crypto deal you should realy not look into any other wallets.

Airbitz is the best.
Mycellium is great, too.
None of the desktop walets are as good, though Electrum is my favorite desktop wallet.

As for the poll, perhaps all of the major wallets should be added rather than the random assortment. "other" has the most votes.

+1 airbitz

I have tried Blockchain, Electrum, Mycelium and Armory but they all have a same risk of losing your keys whenever a device is factory restored. And due to my forgetful nature I may also forget where I hid their corresponding backup keys.

Thus to prevent complications, I ordered a Ledger Wallet where one can securely initiate and validate a transaction either with the "second factor authentication card" or by "smartphone pairing".

In any case my device needs a reset, I can easily import my previous wallet just by entering a set of passphrase. (provided during initial setup)

Moreover if someone steals that ledger he can't do anything since he'll try brute forcing the password and right after 3rd attempt the wallet will erase every keys that were associated before.

Now isn't that secure enough?

I forgot to mention that I also use a Trezor, which is a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano. I definitely recommend it for security -- it can't be hacked. It interfaces to several software wallets including Mycelium and Electrum. The Ledger wallet is cheaper than the Trezor because the security is less convenient.

Even the best technically advanced wallet is not good when you can't manage your own coins. If you did not copy your keys, if you don't have a good password, or your storage machine will be compromised directly.
Other that that is matter of personal preference (full blockchain vs simplified validation wallets) etc.

Only Bitcoin Core is enough for all my needs. Why would I use another wallet? Why would I use a 3rd party application? Why would I use an online wallet? I'm not out of my mind.

[frankenmint]

Hi everyone, just wanted to get your opinion about bitcoin wallets.

Which wallet do you think is best with the best features? It could be in terms of security? Stability? Ease of use? My personal opinion is that the best combination is Blockchain.info as a daily hot wallet and a Paper Wallet for long term cold storage. If i had to choose a proper wallet i would choose Mycelium.

What does everyone think?

I look forward to your opinion

Cheers

Copay FTW compared to those.

Other wallets have better features for daily users. Bitcoin Core occupies too much space and you cannot use the same wallet simultaneously since they generate a different keypool after the keypool from backup finishes. It is not portable at all. With HD wallets, you can easily use a seed to recover your coins and avoid doing multiple backups time after time. For a daily user, SPV HD clients are much more of a better choice.

Ahh I see, thank you all for responding to my question about blockchain.info

You guys are really helpful, I don't hold a lot in my online wallets. Knowing this now, I might consider to change online wallets.

[yoona]

Mycelium yes! I voted for mycelium. Its easy to use but not easy to cracked down. And fast to sync.

[blackmachinegun]

I use blockchain as my online wallet.

I've seen people leaving comments here that it has issues.

I'm not aware of these, could someone explain please?

some of my friend lost their btc on blockchain , its around 0.1-0.5 , and probably because they'd click on scam or phising site and fill in the data there, to prevent against this just enable 2 factor authentication

about phising not only in blockchain dude, paypal also experience it
all the wallet have risks, you must have additional security for it

We're talking about Bitcoin here, you can charge back on paypal. For blockchain.info, 2FA may work what if they use the login information to attempt a log in immediately after you keyed it in? Desktop wallets are equally vulnerable if the user don't verify the signature of the program. If you are connecting to the download/wallet server with unsecured WIFI, you can be vulnerable if the attacker uses SSL strip and if your browser/website doesn't protect you from such attacks.

so what is the best wallet its depends on your security, Im use blockchain.info
i ever receive mailer phising blockchain, i dont know if that is phising, my wallet stay safe because im use sms verify

[adicted]

I agree with you on the mycelium part, I also voted mycelium 'cause of its great feature. I also like the fact that its on my mobile phone (android) and I can bring it anywhere I go. They have added usd accounts and I find it interesting, I am skeptical about it though. Overall, best wallet for me so far 'cause I used it on a daily basis and never encounteree big issues so far.

[Lokfar]

I have only used blockchain.info and coinsbase so far

I'm using coinbase more than blockchain, I haven't had any issues with neither but I just prefer coinbase better

[okae]

mm i dont know whats the best, but for me the bitcoin-core is pretty good and i will continue using it since is the "official".

with one have the best features? hard to said, but Armory seems to be a pretty good candidate, at least IMHO, is a little bit hard to use because of that, but have lot of features that others havent.

Same experience here
I also have Core running in another computer that is always on, mostly to help the network

for most users, it doesn't make that much difference which one of the main wallets you use

[DOGE12321]

i would suggesst you to use Coinbase. It is quite secure and they are not having any issues of scams, bugs or thefts at the moment. But blockchain does have some of these nasty stufff and it may have an adverse effect.

[DimensionZ]

I registered a GreenAddress account yesterday and I am really liking it so far. The best features to me are the option for a quick login from any device with a PIN number if you are in a hurry and the possibility to access your funds elsewhere if GreenAddress service happens to be offline at the moment. So my vote goes to GreenAddress.

many people who think that a third party is quite risky though I use blockchain but they provide full access to the wallet,
by providing the private key and backup wallet.
Coinbase seem not to have it dude

i'm use blockchain because not look for features but because their simply, easy to use and what like armansolis593 said when we want more security system we can activate 2FA with authy or sms verification.
