which is best destop wallet for bitcoin ??

[goku19]

Electrum without any doubt is the best desktop wallet according to me...because its very less complicated than others and has all the features and the security in it...it doesnt require to download all the blockchain data

[sonali2015]

I use Blockchain. info bitcoin wallet service,
I found it safe and so far i have no problem about it

I know about blockchain and coinbase but want to use destop wallet.Thanks to giving your valuable information

[sonali2015]

Now i am only use coinbase and blockchain wallet but i want to about destop wallet  and use it.So anybody help me please and give me correct direction?

I think blockchain wallet and coinbase wallet are best. You can use. Even i also used this wallets. As well as you can us coins.ph wallet.

Don't mislead a newbie. He is asking for desktop wallets and not an exchange wallet.

And why coins.ph being mentioned here. Only PH users will able to fully enjoy coins.ph services and features. But the bottom line, we aren't talking about exchange wallet here.

To OP: I suggest Electrum too since from downloading, installing and setting it up will just consumed few minutes of your life. Refer to previous posts above or here:

I recommend Electrum. Because the Electrum is the most popular desktop based wallet in the bitcoin community. And it gets high marks for its ease of use and user interface, but the real reason it's the best bitcoin wallet for desktop is its safety and reliability while many online wallets and online exchanges don't give you ultimate control of your private key (which gives you access to your bitcoin).

I'm surprised that no one mentioned Coinomi... When I was looking for wallets. In another thread for the same question... most people suggested Coinomi and I got one based on that.
Not one suggested Coinomi though ... Isn't it good anymore ??

Electrum is one of the most robust, effective and secure desktop wallets out there. Also it’s open source, meaning many people have taken part in reviewing and composing the code. This reduces the chance of malicious code inside the software to practically zero.

Coinomi can be convinient to store multiple altcoins "safe". However their code is not opensource and their appliaction is only available for android. OP asked about bitcoin wallet if I am not mistaken so from my knowledge electrum if we talk about software wallets because it supports many platforms and is opensource + secure in some way.

Coinomi doesn't support LN at least from this point in time, I think they will add it in future. It gives you the power to change fees / sweep paper wallets etc. But as I said it's not opensource plus you have to take into consideration that mobile wallets shouldn't ever be your main ones. We know that many people find this to be convenient option and as most of people use some kind of smart phone there are many breachins , hacks, viruses that can be associated with android and nobody can guarantee you that it is secure system over all. Many users means more people will search around to break in. We haven't seen yet that some people lost their money through these apps, or at least I haven't heard of. But there are some real issues here that for me personally coinomi wouldn't be number 1 wallet where I would want my coins to be stored.

Electrum is on of the most effective and secure desktop wallets out there with wallet encryption and signing/verifying messages.
Exodus is up there too (although not open source) it allows to store quite a variety of altcoins and has a super easy UI.
Finally, Bitcoin Core is a full node BTC wallet, allowing you to independently verify transactions on the network and do not need to trust anyone else in the system.

Although these are some decent options for a desktop wallet, if you plan o hold a large amount of Crypto, it's advisable to check out hardware wallets.

Hope this helps!

Try EXODUS

It's user-friendly, easy to use, and safe.

If you are looking for a wallet that supports only bitcoin, you should check electrum out. Why I say this? Because it offers many advanced features as lightweight wallet, this means that you don't have to download blockchain in order to use it, it is more secure than blockchain.info and coinbase alltogether and on top of that electrum supports SegWit & LN network so if other people have wallet that supports LN you can send fast transactions with low fees.

I don't use Electrum wallet ever. Do you please provide me it features and advantages. Actually, I am searching a very high security, high-speed transaction, and low transaction fee hardware wallet. And somebody advises me to use Electrum like you. Please help me to find out the best hardware wallet.

*sigh*, why did someone bump this 3 month old thread..

Anyway, if you're looking for a "very high security, high-speed transaction, and low transaction fee hardware wallet." then there are basically 2 choices, the Trezor and the Nano Ledger S.

Simply google them to find the key differences between them. Also, whether your transaction has high fees/is confirmed fast has almost nothing to do with the wallet software itself, but rather the state of the mempool and what fees are considered "low" to you.
