Bitcoin wallets are the electronic wallet which is created by the peoplw to provide a high reasonable assurance that their money will be keep and safe.
Through this wallets you are rest assured that all investments you have are in the right hand.

[Tmandeep]

Bitcoin, unlike most traditional currencies, is a digital currency. Thus, the approach to this kind of currency is completely different, particularly when it comes to acquiring and storing it. As Bitcoins don’t exist in any physical shape or form, they can’t technically be stored anywhere. Instead, it’s the private keys used to access your public Bitcoin address and sign for transactions that need to be securely stored. A combination of the recipient’s public key and your private key is what makes a Bitcoin transaction possible.

[balancesheets101]

A Bitcoin Wallet is a piece of software to be use to communicate with bitcoin network. It is use to send or to receive transactions. Every bitcoin account has a public address, just like an email address and private key or password . We use public address to send or receive money. On the other hand we must protect our private key and never reveal it from anybody. If someone knows your private key they can steal your bitcoins and send it somewhere else. 

[perova93]

All Bitcoin online wallets are divided into 2 groups:

Hybrid (with multi-signature). In this case, the service has limited access to your Bitcoins. In order to confirm the transaction, you need the signature of two parties: yours and the service. Such wallets are more reliable than traditional ones, but the user will have to store a private key on his device.
The keys are stored by the service. These purses, in turn, are divided into 2 groups:
Exchange. About the exchange, I'll write in one of my articles. So far, I can only say one thing: exchanges are created for the exchange of crypto currency, and not for the storage of Bitcoins. Therefore, withdraw all available funds from exchanges to purses.
Traditional wallets. These are online services that store your keys at home, giving you only backup copies.

Entrepreneurs will be happy to know that Electrum already has support for checks, or invoice, their list will appear in your wallet as soon as you make payment for the first check, on the "Send" tab. If you are tempted to use Bitcoin for calculations in a store or a supermarket, and not in dOrknet, you can get a powerful enough "cryptographic temporary signature" tool for all checks - at your disposal. A chip for marketing, slave control or accounting? You decide!

[mmo_online_1981]

I use blockchian.info for the coin that it supports, I'm not entirely satisfied but it allows me to use it anytime, anywhere!

[nankers]

Its a good topic for newbie before start invest to bitcoin. Very few topics that discuss in detail about bitcoin wallet...im appreciated for this topic  . I am a little suggest, for now please be careful with the exchange and wallet applications on smartphones, because now start circulating phishing applications on smartphones that will steal all your secret data

[Kprawn]

OP, please stop calling people Sir. The formalities are not necessary, because we are all equal here.   {There are also a lot

of ladies on this forum}   Your coverage of hardware and software wallets are detailed, but the information about the most

secure option {Paper Wallets} is unfinished. I would like to add --> https://www.bitaddress.org/ as one of the paper wallet

generators, if I may.  

[warning_btc]

Best bitcoin wallet ever is bitcoin core, despite the taking big disk space.
If you want use online wallet, with this success you can use exchange wallets

[tungaqhd]

I am using blockchain wallet. I think it is enough secure and convenient, let me control my private keys and custom fees.

[Silent26]

I am a little suggest, for now please be careful with the exchange and wallet applications on smartphones, because now start circulating phishing applications on smartphones that will steal all your secret data

Actually, using bitcoin wallet from phone is as safe as using any other wallet in computers. Its only up to the user how to take care of his/her wallet. Some people are just too careless. Sometimes, they accidentally give their private keys to other people or public and some people are just too dumb to give information to a unknown person asking for his/her wallet password or private keys.

I am one example of people who take care of their wallet so much. I only used a mobile bitcoin wallet app and I have no problem using it at all.  

Tips.
To avoid phishing. Don't just click untrusted or suspicious link sent via Pm by a unknown person, also suspicious links that you can see on internet. I'm pretty sure that phishing sites are scattered everywhere.
If you really want to open a particular link, try to open it using different web browser where there is no account logged in. You can use incognito browsers, it is much way better.

Its a good topic for newbie before start invest to bitcoin. Very few topics that discuss in detail about bitcoin wallet...im appreciated for this topic   .

Yeah, newbies should learn some or the basic information about bitcoin wallets too. I will move this thread to Beginners&Help section if I have to. Thanks for the appreciation

OP, please stop calling people Sir. The formalities are not necessary, because we are all equal here.   {There are also a lot

of ladies on this forum}  

Sorry for that, but I really used to call other people Sir/Ma'am. My basis of calling Sir and Ma'am depends on their name. Its my way of showing respect, although we are all equal as our identity are also anonymous, I still respect other people as I respect you

Your coverage of hardware and software wallets are detailed, but the information about the most

secure option {Paper Wallets} is unfinished. I would like to add --> https://www.bitaddress.org/ as one of the paper wallet

generators, if I may.  

Thanks for the additional information, I will add it later

Paper wallets- paper wallets are documents containing all of the data that is needed to generate any number of bitcoin private keys. It is usually used for storing bitcoins offline as a physical document. I cant be able to give some examples of paper wallet because paper wallets are just documents made by people. But it is still a way of storing bitcoin.

I make some research and gathered information from different sites and combined them as one information and this is the result. I made this for you guys so that you can be able to know further informations without going to different kinds of sites just to find answers. I hope it helps.

CoinBase: The excess Wallet Coinbase lies in its features as well, there are many features, namely: Vault (Vault), Vault is a vitur where if we want to safely store the bitcoin without feeling anxious, then this feature is the right choice, by inserting the vault wallet in coinbase, we can sleep soundly without having to fear our coinbase account in the hack, Why is Vault wallet safe ??
Because here a lot of verification system if we want to memwithdraw bitcoin, if we do withdraw in vault wallet, then we have to pass the stages that is, 2 factor verification can be through sms, and authy code. after that we still have to wait 2x24hours, or 2days 2nd night, if it is not you who withdraw it is sure you will be able to cancel at the withdraw, if you login on 1 day after withdraw by our wallet breaker.

Great efforts to explain types of wallets to the newbies who are confused while taking the decision to choose their wallet. I am a great fan of offline wallets and I am using a paper wallet (with multiple backup copies) to store my main cold storage funds and then I also have Trezor wallet for flexible funds and then I use web wallet for liquidity purpose but never keep more than 5% funds online.

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and worldwide payment system. It is the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central bank or single administrator and released as open-source software. Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process knows as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services.

Good job you @silent26 for this extensive and detailed post. I really like the Nano wallet as my best offline wallet. And I do use the blockcain wallet as my online wallet. I protect my keys and details to avoid being hacked because anything that happens is in my hand. I think there is need for a wallet that will allow bitcoin fork coins to be received.
