Uhh. What was rated 2.5? You just wrote a rating and not really say what the rating was for.

Well, I'll just recommend the wallet I use. I use electrum and bither wallet. Both are easy to use and quite secure.

[newby1989Jona]

You Have to download electrum but I am just using on phone.

I want an easy 1.

The blockchain rating was 2.5 overall customer UK rating

[santiPOGI]

bitcoin wallet will be blockchain wallet because there you can have as many as you want bitcoin address
if you want more coins and exchange go to myetherwallet but this is just for address and exchange ofcorse you still need to have a stronger and primary wallet where you can withdraw your funds and deposit if you want to ... better search more and  wait for some days manyy people here sure will help you .. good luck pal

Electrum

[Iranus]

You Have to download electrum but I am just using on phone.

They have an android app.

If you really want to use an online wallet for some unknown reason, blockchain.info isn't as bad as Trustpilot suggests.  They can be buggy at times, but people tend to leave reviews a lot more often when they have a problem.  Their fee estimation has never been very good though, so make sure you set an appropriate fee for the priority you want your transaction to have.

BTC.com is another online wallet with a phone app if you're looking for an alternative.

Electrum and Mycelium are both good mobile wallets with control over your private keys though.

i use wallet android so far normal constraint in the big tax of light application in use you can search in playstore bitcoin wallet rating 4.5 satisfy usage already more 200 user wear this

[shield132]

I think from your thread's name you mean any wallet to use on your phone. Blockchain is online wallet so you need internet when you use it on pc, smartphone or etc. There is no need to download electrum when you use phone. If you have already wallet, you can import it on blockchain.info's wallet and use it on your smartphone.
Don't look at that rating, blockchain is good but if you want to spend, receive and hold huge amount of bitcoins like 100btc, then I would use offline wallet. On another hand blockchain wallet is safe and easy.

[newby1989Jona]

But it does not work with uk bank when buying. Only option.is bank transfer which is complicated I'm worried if I mistyped 1 little letter when typing address or reference I will loose all money from my account

[suzanne5223]

I recommend the bitcoin core cause is a nice and eaasy to use wallet. However Electrum, Mycelium and blockchain wallet are also nice but Electrum is having some sort of technical problem lately.

[Papski]

Can't you just use blockchain.info wallet? I've been using it for many years already and didn't experience any problems with it. I would say its most reliable online wallet out there

[Dmitry.Vastov]

If you want to download the complete blockchain then you should install the bitcoin core wallet but if you are low on space then electrum is the best wallet for you as it doesn't need to download the whole blockchain.
And if you want to use bitcoin wallet on mobile then blockchain and the official bitcoin wallet are the best.

If you plan for long term holding, Electrum for both PC and mobile will do the job. You will hold your private keys here so rest assured that your coins is safe and it will just lose via human error.

If you will do some regular used of your bitcoins or making withdrawals into fiat, search for your local exchangers there with good reputation since it's more way easy to access than to use international exchangers like Coinbase , XAPO etc to deposit and withdraw bitcoin.

I used to use blockchain, I moved most of my money over to electrum. Electrum is actually really simple to use especially if you can access the android/pc app. Use blockchain if you don't have much money to transfer, but even then I'd say use electrum over blockchain during any opportunity you get.

If you want to save bitcoin and seeking for a good wallet, it's better to use blockchain or electrum. there are a lot of wallet options out there but I prefer those two wallets. I just suggest do not use exchange to save our bitcoin.

Actually, blockchain is better than most bitcoin wallet, it's simple and easy to use, you can set custom fees as well.
And electrum for android isn't so good compare to desktop version which you can set custom fees to send bitcoin, but you can't if using android version.
If you have iPhone, there is breadwallet. breadwallet is perhaps the most popular Bitcoin wallet for iPhone. It’s super easy to use and gives users complete control over their funds. The interface is clean and makes using the wallet easy even for new Bitcoin users. The recovery process is also explained well which helps prevent new users from losing their bitcoins due to rookie mistakes. Read more here: https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/wallets/ios/

If you do use a wallet, check to see if you're using the correct website. There are many phishing sites masquerading as bitcoin wallets that will steal your crypto. Internet wallets like blockchain are ok. The main drawback with those are they have the private key associated with your bitcoin address. For security purposes desktop wallets which in theory allow only you to have the private key to your account are more secure.

Of course security is a multi layered thing. A desktop wallet probably won't be the most secure thing if someone manages to install a rootkit or trojan that keylogs what someone's private key is on their PC. There are many vectors of attack/defense when it comes to OPSEC(operational security).

Actually, I was just looking at my electrum app on android and I noticed that you actually can set the fee however you like. It's located in the settings section and I think the dynamic fee option is engaged right when you install it. You can opt out of that and customize how much you send for fees as you please. There hasn't really been much that I can't do on blockchain on electrum, which is why I think it's perfectly fine to migrate over from blockchain.

Well seems like you are indeed a newbie and fits your name.

Anyway. Not sure what you are looking for, but seems like you are looking for an online wallet that has the feature of being able to buy bitcoins at the same time. You can check out:

coinbase (depends on which country you are in, they allow you to buy from their platform)
spectrocoin (not very sure with this, just check it our yourself)

Generally, it is best to just buy from localbitcoins then store it in your own wallet like bither (ios and android) or electrum (android).

[TheCoinFinder]

Well,you told you want to use a wallet on phone.If you are still in search of a better bitcoin wallet,you can choose omniwallet.org or xapo.
Both wallets can be fully used on your phone but those wallets do not provide private keys.
If the private key is necessity,then you should have Mycellium app from playstore

[Collinslevi]

GreenAddress takes this issue seriously and has implemented some neat features to help prevent basic online attacks. GreenAddress shares control of your Bitcoin with you. While other online wallets are prone to phishing attacks, GreenAddress controlling one of your keys provided true two-factor authentication.

For best wallets to use, this does not have anything to do with a country rating. The most important thing is to find a good wallet best for you. Blockchain is good, however, there are so many reasons why using an online wallet is not that very good as you do not have control over them. Since you said you only have a phone, blockchain is good, been using it on my android device for years. You can however consider mycellium as I heard it gives some control.
However, I will advise you consider some desktop wallet later on if you do not have the cash to purchase a hardware wallet (they are safer). And if you just want to be storing up and not spending, you may as well just opt for a paper wallet.

This is surely a good option this dude have mentioned here. If you want to thread the saving line and holding for long, paper wallet is not a bad idea since all you need is always your public address to get your funds into your wallet.

It is just very crucial to save it in a very private place since it contains your private key. However, what some other people have mentioned are all good including blockchain for mobile. Just make sure your wallet is backed up and you have your seed.

Blockchain info wallet is not good if you ask me, they don't provide you private keys of your eth or btc wallet. This is dangerous. I never prefer to use this systems. You should have your own private keys.

There are many companies who provide online digital account for crypto currencies. Blockchain is one of them. Blockchain is I think the leading cryptocurrency digital account provider and is more authentic and secure than the others.

People trust it the most. But there is one problem that the transaction fee is very high. Although it is very secure and reliable and propel mostly like it.

[dulce dd121990]

Is there a selected wallets to be consider here? Well if that so, i am going to select best wallet to be used. But right now i am using Linux Wallet. I was introduce to me from a friend here. But you know that there are lot of wallet that suggested from the the campaign and bounty. They usually suggest the user to download wallets they show. So i think those wallets are also good for your transactions. But be aware also for other wallets because some of them are a risk of your computer because of viruses.

[katinko]

Blockchain is best online wallet for me, most of the transaction was confirmed smoothly i do not have any problem while using this wallet.
But if you are looking for application wallet i choose to recommend mycelium it has your own private key makes the fund safe that is best mobile wallet for me.
