Just got my Trezor, very happy with it! Not to mention it's the safest option. Storing in an online wallet or hard drive wallet is to sketchy. Hackers are on the rise with the bitcoin price going up.

You could use electrum wallet.I have been using it or the past two years.Its safe to use.We could even set our transaction fee manually.But it should have to be downloaded from official website Electrum.org and not from fake websites.

In fact the best thing that you can do is just get yourself a hardware wallet, maybe you are thinking that this is a joke, but a lot of people have already lost their bitcoins because they were storing their btc's in an online wallet.
And they are not expensive, just tell me, do you think that paying $49 for a single wallet is expensive? of course not, becuase you are going to protect it almost forever.
Coinbase is safe, the same happens with blockchain.info, but they are online wallets, and that is why i have never liked them, a hacker can get your funds easy from there.
Just get a trezor
Trezor or Ledger Nano S is equal in functionality but only the price that makes difference. Online wallets (not giving out private keys) are not safe, so you should only store little amount of bitcoin in online wallets. Other wallets on the web are a bit safer, if they give you your private key or seed, but you should consider that if you have to use your private key or seed on a webpage to interact with your wallet, you have to input it on the webpage. There are several possible points of attack: Keylogger built into keyboard, keylogger built into the OS on the PC, malware on the PC, phising website to grab your key, or man in the middle attack while your key are on the way to the website (travelling on the web from your PC to the wallet's server). If you use a hardware wallet, the private key or seed won't be shared with anyone (PC, keyboard, internet, website, etc.) With a hardware wallet, you only send signed transactions from your PC, from which the private key or seed is not extractable. Everything in the process that needs a private key happens on the hardware wallet itself this is why they are really safe choice. You pay for this safety and not only for a wallet itself. I personally use one on exchange and my big prize is on Ledger Nano S. Friend recommend to me and Im more then pleased with this and would highly recommend it to anyone to use it. Simple and with no worries, except when you lose your 12 word pass then can be little tricky.

I personally use electrum wallet, it is easy to setup and very secure.. I don't think storing BTC in online wallets is a good idea.

In my country (Philippines) the best wallet for us Filipinos is coins.ph because in this wallet we can easily convert our bitcoins to Philippine peso which is really convenient for use and also this wallet has many features like paying bills online.

I have been using coinbase and blockchain.info for the last two years. They are very safe and convenient. I haven't had any problem with them. I have also used electrum which is also a good desktop wallet.

Hello Everyone,
There are few famous wallets for bitcoin like blockchain and coinbase. But actually, i have been using them for a long time ago. But I want to get another good wallet. So, which one will be better? Please Suggest Me.
Thank You.
There are some previous topics related to this issue, you can refer to them. I will also have a few tips for you. If you own a lot of Bitcoins and need security, you can use hardware wallet as the Trezor or Nano S, which is very safe and very good. Another alternative for you is Electrum, it's a software wallet on the computer, I'm using it and feel pretty good about both security and asset control issues. This is my own opinion, the choice is yours ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

You have to pick the wallet based on your usage I am using blockchain wallets it is secured than coinbase because it have private key so your savings will be secured.But if your going to store your bitcoin for long term or your have more than one bitcoin then it is better to go with hardware wallet or paper wallet like electrum.

At this moment, I am using an e-wallet which is an online app to store my Bitcoin. It is a bit secured , why do i know? because accounts are connected to another account. It is called as coins, from that I am able to convert my Bitcoin into fiat or regular currency especially if it s not yet legal in your country. so that I would still be allowed to use it.

I personally suggest having multiple wallets to avoid being hacked. Have a wallet to be used for receiving bitcoins, a different wallet to be used for sending bitcoins, and another one or a cold storage/hardware wallet to be used to store your bitcoins secretly and offline. I would recommend Ledger Nano S for hardware wallet. Having a storage of your bitcoins means that you are storing it for long term for you not to withdraw easily.

I think the best one is TREZOR. I can't say for sure since I don't own any yet. I wanted to order it but it seems they are out of stock now. So, I will order it when next sale appears.

Coinbase is okay as a wallet but the fact you do not control your own keys is always a problem, Blockchain you can have your keys so if they do go down you should be able to retrieve your coins.
I find Mycelium is a great wallet for Android, you get your keys and the interface is very user friendly, the best of all would be to use a hardware wallet and they are quite cheap now.

This question seems to get asked every week. Get a hardware wallet, either a Nano S or Trezor. Trezors are not delicate I have an original from 2014 that still works fine.

Thank You.
blockchain and coinbase is most trusted wallet in always. Because these two wallet are more secured in cryptocurrency. But if you want to choose another wallet Electrum is the good in current market. Many peoples are using in Electrum it is one of the top 10 wallet. In future many updates are available in this wallet. So this is suit for everywhere.

you can try blockchain.info to keep your Bitcoins safe, also, you can use hardware wallets.

It is the first time I heard about coinbase; in regard on my opinion, I think coins.ph is a good too for Bitcoin. It is very popular here in my country and it is really easy to use and understand. I recommend it to all my friends.
