Personally, I use desktop, web and mobile wallets for holding and converting bitcoins (BTC) to FIAT local currencies.

In my desktops, I use exodus, bitcoin electrum, bitcoin core, waves light client, and gulden wallet (which used to be fully compatible with bitcoin):

In the web, I use the wirex/e-coin wallet and payeer e-wallet, which allow me to hold and convert BTC to my local currency (EUR, USD, etc) as well as withdraw with a debit card:

In the android mobile phone I use the smartcoinswallet app developed by bitshares:

 :)I use a web wallet as my main wallet. because web wallet can be accessed from anywhere. on any device, as long as it is connected to the Internet. it makes things easier and faster.

So far Electrum is the best option for me But I'm looking for a web wallet now

[BitcoinPanther]

I use a combination of lightweight Desktop wallet, mobile wallet and web wallet.  Among these three, I am most comfortable with lightweight Desktop Wallet using Electrum since I can freely export and import private key in it.  I always love to use the Bitcoin Core wallet but my bandwidth is limited to a 1gb  per day so it will take me 100 days to fully download the blockchain.  Until I got a better connection I guess I have to stick with other options.

If you are uncertain, you can always check https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet  and have the wallet of your choice.

I wanted to select 2 options: web wallet and lightweight wallet (desktop)...

There is a thread about recomendations for the best wallet to use, but not all practice what they preach, so this poll is to see what people are actually using.
I understand that some people use multiple wallets of different kinds, so this poll asks which wallet is most used, this can be measured either by quantity of bitcoin or ammount of transactions.

Here lots of wallet types but I think it would be more better to list the names of the web wallets.
Well here my two best wallet are mysellium a d blockchain , both of fullfill my requirements according to as my need .
Mysellium is better because we can import any private key and blockchain is better because first is official and second is able to customize the transaction fee ( that I like much ) .
These two wallets are more better for me then any other wallet .
Beside these two wallets I like zebpay for the trading and also as an wallet Because transfer of bitcoin from one wallet to other is free .

I have started to use lightweight client on my desktop this days because i have realized that they are far more secure than any other web wallets available out there. Also for offline storage, i generate addresses on my offline computer using bitaddress.org source code.

[ethereumhunter]

i am using Lightweight Wallet for mobile and desktop and so far, i am satisfied with this. and beside those two wallet, i still use wallet from the market exchange especially in my local market exchange because i need this to convert or exchange from bitcoin into my local currency. i think its good if we have more than 5 wallet from many type of wallet because for me, i want to save in many place and i will spread my bitcoin in each of that place.

[SONG GEET]

I started with xapo, coinbase and blockchain but later on moved to electrum which i think is quite secure than any others. I use electrum for most of my daily transactions and i am thinking about buying trezor for long term storage.

I just use the online wallet, the reason is because it is simple, easy and can I access everywhere. I know that the wallet is offline is very safe, but because I'm still new and still small balance is of course currently online wallet is enough.

That is good for a newbie, you can stick to online wallet because you are just slowly learning how bitcoin works and what are the basics. Online wallet is one of the best and common wallet that most of the members here used because it is accessible anywhere and you just need internet to receive and transfer bitcoin but you need to remember that online wallets are not safe because of the hackers and it is best to turn on 2FA for additional layer of security.

Im using Electrum wallet.

Its safe to use.

A seed of 13 words is generated for password during registration.

You could use it to recover your account in case of laptop damaged.

You can set your fees manually for transactions.

Well.... I'm using to types of wallet, first is Paper wallet this wallet i usually used to receive bitcoin and sending on it and my second one is Web Wallet...... my purpose that i used web wallet is to stock my money for a long time whether i want like electrum much more than trusted enough and good one to use for web wallet

I think you're confused.  Web wallets are usually much more convenient and easier to use for everyday transactions, but they're less secure.  Paper wallets have the opposite characteristics.  Holding a large amount of money in a web wallet for a long time is a bad idea - I use a web wallet but only until I've earned enough for it to be significant.

Paper wallets are just for people who have got a lot of bitcoins and they want to secure it by putting it in paper wallets because paper wallets are very safe since it is offline and the hackers can't get those bitcoin unless they see the private key but overall it is very safe. Web wallets are just for hot wallet and not for long term holding because it is very vulnerable to hackers that can hack and get access and steal your money.

Hot wallet can be also used for long term holding since it is designed to prevent from hackers. There are web wallet which has a 2fa secuirty, number/email confirmation which can be used both to add extra layer of security to keep off hackers. It's impossible to be hacked unless you surrender your email password, wallet password, and the private key of your authenticator.

I use the wallet in deskop pc and mobile phone, too risky if you use wallet exchange. I think mobile wallet storage more secure, using the app blockchain.info reinforced with fingerprint lock, pin, and sms. save long term bitcoin in wallet exchange is very dangerous, because some viruses and malware can read cookies. not just it, save bitcoin in your wallet exchange, affect play some cryptocurrency mostly suffered losses , and if at any time and exchange losses do scams, it is unfortunate if this happened.

Well if a simple virus like that can surely affect your online wallet they will be in big trouble but I think they really have strong security on them, they can not really done something like a online wallet that can be affected by some virus, I think they are thinking ahead before setting up a wallet, I am using online wallet and in 2 years of using it there are no such problem and they are very responsive whenever there are problem regarding the wallet, but I think the mobile wallet is great too well maybe I would try using it when I get one!
