yes it is safe as long as as you download it from the official site and make sure the signature of the file is the same. It is safe because it is under constant monitoring from the community doing the peer review of the client code, which is openly available.

Did you have any problems? Why do you have doubts? Can you share?

[Gogochen]

Yes, it's safe because the code is completely open source and you can see the code on GitHub.
Do you have any doubts about the core wallet of bitcoin?

If he downloads the BTC wallet from bitcoin.org or the torrent file on the top of this forum then he should be pretty safe

Make sure the signature and hashes are correct before you store BTC or generate your private keys with it. Make sure you’re downloading official oncly

Yes, bitcoin core is wallet is too much safe. no doubts about the core wallet of bitcoin just keep your PC safe from virus. but be careful download from the original site of Bitcoin. it's will make your life easy.

It is a desktop wallet and any desktop wallet is as safe as your PC. So, if you feel the security of your PC is out of date, then you better not bother yourself. You should also know that this is a heavy wallet and I wonder why you would have to go through all that stress when you can download a light one or just go the cold storage way as that is safer. However, it is your choice.

Every wallet who is providing private key access are completely safe but yoi have to keep your private keys safe.Bitcoincore wallet is also one of the best wallet for storing bitcoin but if you want to store more than one bitcoin definitely you should go to the hardware wallets ober other type of wallet.

The question is dumb af, no not at all, the client made by the dude who made bitcoin is totally unsafe and you shouldn’t use it

[Rhegz]

Yes it's safe. Because your the only one can know the code and your password. You must better keep it and don't loose it.

The Bitcoin Core wallet is very safe, you can download it from bitcoin.org.
Make sure that you verify the signatures before running the installer/executable as you don't want to coins be stolen because of faulty software.

Try to download bitcoin core from bitcoin.org. And yes its safe, many of bitcoin holders uses this kind of wallet. But as for me i use the regulated wallet from our country because it can access on banks and many online stores too.

Make sure your signature and hash are correct before you save the bitcoin or create your private key with it. It must be safe as long as you download it from the official site and make sure the signature of the file is the same. Safe because continuous monitoring is done from people who review the client code, which is openly available.

[Daniya]

Of course bitcoin wallet is safe because this is the storage of your bitcoin that transfer into your account.

The Bitcoin Core wallet is very safe, you can download it from bitcoin.org.
Make sure that you verify the signatures before running the installer/executable as you don't want to coins be stolen because of faulty software.

Just to add - the OP should ensure his wallet is encrypted with a strong password & that limits his online activities on that PC. Hackers are very good at what they do these days, I rarely use the computer I have Core on for anything except bitcoin. Basically what I’m saying is don’t visit sites you aren’t 110% sure are safe & don’t download or click on any files.

You can’t be overly paranoid when your bitcoin’s are at stake.

[Sadnu]

I think the core wallet is safe but you can not make sure that the wallet you trust can still be a scam. It takes a little bit of technical knowledge to get started with the Bitcoin Core wallet, but when it comes to security the original bitcoin wallet is still hailed by many as one of the safest places to keep your funds. Read our review to find out whether Bitcoin Core is the right wallet for you.

[vitsexy]

yes of course safe ,, while you keep your software well, do not download the indiscriminate virus will cause, and be careful with people around keeping your password safely

[Jeremycoin]

Nothing is safe, everything on the internet is fragile. Not only on the internet, even a physical vault in a Bank isn't totally safe.
If you keep thinking about those things then you will also be paranoid about everything, even for the most trusted wallet that also the official one which is bitcoin core.

Anyway, here's a useful link to answer your question.

Yes Bitcoin core is the official wallet of Bitcoin so it is one of the safest wallet for storing your Bitcoins, however there it is not a safe place if your pc/desktop is infected by malwares and viruses. For me it doesn't matter if you use the official wallet or hardware wallet as long as the wallet provides you the private key, the security of the Bitcoins is still depends on the user on how careful he is, if you are careless even you use the safest wallet out there, you can't say that it is safe. If you are planning to use Bitcoin core better have a new desktop and don't use it on browsing the web and don't connect any device (usb, external hard drives) to it.
