much better to choose blockchain bitcoin wallet or local bitcoin wallet in your country which is offering the best services that you can used more that the other bitcoin wallet. And much better to have more bitcoin wallet to lessen the risk of your money.

Electrum would be the easiest choice imho. Just please make sure your computer is also safe and free of viruses/trojans/keyloggers.
The wallet is light, easy to use, pretty safe and you hold control of it 100%, so even if you win a fortune you will fear that somebody else has access to your money. And it syncs instantly.

I've been searching for wallets and I'm not sure which to use.

My situation:
I want to try gambling on Fortune Jack. If i win something I'm simply going to cash out and never use bitcoin again, the same if i lose. Or maybe ill gamble again every once in a little while. But that's practically the full extent of my use for bitcoin.

So based on my personal use of bitcoin, what would be the best wallet for me?
I'm new to bitcoin in general so if someone could explain the process of selling as well, i would appreciate it.
Peace//

I recommend multibit classic,it's pretty easy to use and comfortable to work with,the UI is also clean without excessive colors.

Since you appear to be new to Bitcoin, I would recommend you not to use offline wallets.
You should use don't online Bitcoin services like Coinbase and Xapo.

Big Coinbase and Xapo can let you store ,send, receive, buy and sell Bitcoins. Both of them are trusted ones.
Benefit of Xapo would be that you don't have to pay transactions fees(not very high).

For you, i would recommend ty use Coinbase or Xapo for selling Bitcoins rather than using other exchanges.

Hope it helps

Better try use block.io , they do not have issues based on where the bitcoin is coming from but if you try use online wallet like coinbase  that may land you into serious trouble that your money could get lost at the the end because they hate gambling activities.

First is if you are going to use for gambling then dont go for online web wallet instead download desktop wallet as i am using electrum i can suggest it but you can try other also. As in desktop wallet you will be having full control of the bitcoin address with keys so in future if any problem you can sign message and no one will ask you anything if you are going to use bitcoin for any purpose

PLEASE NEVER USE ANY SORT OF ONLINE WALLET, BLOCKCHAIN OR ANYTHING. [1] Electrum and MultiBit do not transfer your private keys anywhere and are comparatively much safer.

Most wallets that are safe do not offer a way to sell. Some online wallets like Xapo offers the feature of withdrawing through their debit cards. It won't be safe nor cheap.
[1] https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/573lis/it_looks_like_blockchaininfo_has_been_dns_hijacked/

- Hackers can very very easily compromise your security through man in the middle attack.

There were several issues affecting the RNG in the past.



I guess ill give Electrum and MultiBit a look. Can you give me a safe place to buy Bitcoins.
Also, FortueJack offers a way to buy Bitcoins through their website. would that be safe?

I would recommend Bitfinex or coinbase for buying Bitcoins. When using coinbase, it is recommended to use a mixer before transferring to your own address.

There is 0 disadvantages of using a desktop wallet especially since nearly all of them uses a seed which would allow the addresses to be accessible from several devices. The UI is friendly enough, even for paper wallets and Armory in offline mode.

I was recommending use of online wallet as-
1. He can directly but, sell Bitcoins there
2. He is new to it
3. He is only willing to use it for a specific thing. ( Maybe to be used only for done days). So why download the application.
4. I feel online wallets are easier to understand. There are support sections.
5. For desktop wallets, applications must be  installed on each of the device.
6. It would be easier to remember passwords of Coinbase or Xapo.
7. I don't think he needs things such as paper wallets, offline mode.

The two online wallets you mentioned has very specific policies regarding transactions related to gambling. If they see any transactions that involves a gambling site, they may close your account without any notice.
2. He is new to it
4. I feel online wallets are easier to understand. There are support sections.
How hard is it to find the send and receive button? Online wallets are not any better in terms of UI. And this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=98.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=99.0
http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/faq.html
3. He is only willing to use it for a specific thing. ( Maybe to be used only for done days). So why download the application.
I'm not sure how hard it is to take 2 minutes to install a program as opposed to creating the account in 5 minutes. Desktop wallets gives you a lot more privacy and security.
5. For desktop wallets, applications must be  installed on each of the device.
How many do you want. If you are going to use a web wallet, you would probably be downloading it to your phone too.
6. It would be easier to remember passwords of Coinbase or Xapo.
Does anyone still memorise their private keys?
7. I don't think he needs things such as paper wallets, offline mode.
Neither do I. I just gave it as an example that desktop wallets are as, if not more user friendly than web wallets.

The two online wallets you mentioned has very specific policies regarding transactions related to gambling. If they see any transactions that involves a gambling site, they may close your account without any notice.
If I'm right, Xapo is based in Switzerland. So, it does not restrict gambling transactions.
But yes, you are right for Coinbase(US based), it has closed several accounts for gambling site transactions.

2. He is new to it
4. I feel online wallets are easier to understand. There are support sections.
How hard is it to find the send and receive button? Online wallets are not any better in terms of UI. And this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=98.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=99.0
http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/faq.html

Personally, I feel UI of Online wallets is good.



3. He is only willing to use it for a specific thing. ( Maybe to be used only for done days). So why download the application.
I'm not sure how hard it is to take 2 minutes to install a program as opposed to creating the account in 5 minutes. Desktop wallets gives you a lot more privacy and security.
Yes, you are correct that it can take more time for setting up online wallet.
But security isn't a concern of online wallets.(Only concern is the wallet company scams;  Coinbase Xapo are trusted) We have an option to set 2FA + password. Also, while making any transaction, your IP would not be revealed at the blockchain.


6. It would be easier to remember passwords of Coinbase or Xapo.
Does anyone still memorise their private keys?
NO, I'm not telling about memorising the key.
He may misplace his private key.

Yes, but that's not a big point.

I've been searching for wallets and I'm not sure which to use.

My situation:
I want to try gambling on Fortune Jack. If i win something I'm simply going to cash out and never use bitcoin again, the same if i lose. Or maybe ill gamble again every once in a little while. But that's practically the full extent of my use for bitcoin.

So based on my personal use of bitcoin, what would be the best wallet for me?
I'm new to bitcoin in general so if someone could explain the process of selling as well, i would appreciate it.
Peace//



-- i used COINOMI apps for my mobile wallet..
This is easy to used for gambling for me.. It easy to change btc to other currency...
... Easy to loose btc in gambling..
Use more currency.. Like litecoins dash etherium.. To balance your money in gambling..

electreum is the best wallet so once you have to try and use this wallet for your need. in this wallet have security and great saving power of bit coin. if we have to reavel our passwords and private keys to others nothing to worry about this. so electreum is the best and secure wallet for using. you try to use this wallet never leave this.and it is easy to change bit coin to other currency so once youhave to check and use electreum wallet. if you interest to use hardware wallet then try once trezor wallet it can also provide security to your bit coin and your private keys.
