Hi guys, I see lots of different wallets on the market. What would you suggest for a beginner? Hardware, paper or online? The sound of Trezor is pretty good, I just wish they'd add a MIOTA

Online wallets (or exchanges) are something you want to stay away from. If they get hacked, your funds are gone.
Paper wallets are good but they can get wet etc. If you're not careful. They are also not that good when It comes to spending on a regular basis, as you will be exposing the private keys.
Hardware wallets (Precisely Trezor) is a very great choice and I would really recommend it and as for supporting your coin, they are actively working on adding more (I know that Monero is coming soon).

I would say paper wallets are the best, but even though they're quite easy to setup, they're quite difficult to setup well. You'd have to take A LOT of safety precautions. So I'd suggest using hardware wallets like the Trezor[1] and a Ledger Nano S[2] instead, as they're pretty easy to use, and you're pretty much safe as long as you store your recovery seed(s) safely, non-digitally. As with IOTA though, I'm pretty sure ledger and trezor are willing to add them, it's just that wallets in general for IOTA are just really bad right now. maybe in the future.

The most secure wallet option would be a hardware wallet--Trezor, Keepkey, or Ledger Nano. They cost more, but if you're holding a large sum of crypto, it's your best bet.

The sound of Trezor is pretty good, I just wish they'd add a MIOTA My favourite wallets or mostly used are Blockchain and Metamask/MyEtherWallet, but i also use exchanger market (such as Bittrex Kucoin etc) as a wallet. For the hardware, imo Ledger Nano S is pretty nice to use.

Web wallets store your private keys on a server of a company providing such services. The server is constantly online and is controlled by someone else. Different services offer different features, with some of them linking to mobile and desktop wallets, replicating your addresses across the devices you own. Much like mobile wallets, e-wallets enable their users to access their funds on-the-go from any device connected to the Internet. But unless implemented correctly, the organizations running the website might gain access to your private keys, thus getting total control of your funds. Moreover, some e-wallets are operating on the base of exchanges, and there have been instances of exchanges shutting down and running away with their users’ funds. https://www.coinbase.com One-stop solution, an exchange integrated with a wallet. https://www.circle.com Users can store, send, receive and buy Bitcoins. https://blockchain.info One of the most popular web-based wallets. https://strongcoin.com Offers a hybrid wallet, which lets you encrypt your private address keys before sending them to its servers. https://janus.xapo.com A simple Bitcoin wallet, with the added security of a cold-storage vault. if you can see more information so go to link below https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-for-beginners/what-is-bitcoin-wallets#paperCollected by cointelegraph

As for wallets, I prefer multi-currency wallets.
And the four highest rated multi-currency wallets that support Bitcoin Cash are:
Exodus (desktop software)
Blockchain Wallet (mobile & web)
Ledger (hardware wallet)
Trezor (hardware wallet)

Best cryptowallet for me is 1. MyEtherWallet (online wallet) which can save Ethereum and ERC20 type token 2. NEON (dekstop wallet) for saving NEO and NEP5 type token

The sound of Trezor is pretty good, I just wish they'd add a MIOTA Hardware wallet is the best option within paper or online.. Paper is the next one. But it is not much safety. Papers can steel and easily paper can be damaged. Online wallets are not recommended. . Because it can be easily hacked.

yes friend. you are right. But the thing is MEW can be easily hacked. It was hacked several times within last few months. So using MEW remember to use with Metamask. Other wise you will be in a trouble.

My favourite crypto wallet is the hardware wallet. I am using Ledger Nano S and I feel safe using it. You can use it with MEW to better secure the browsing session. For other coins not supported by my hardware wallet, I will use the official wallets by the developers.

In the moment I am using Metamask (this is my favourite) and Eidoo, I also tried the Waves platform. I am thinking about buying a hardware wallet, becouse I started to worry about the safety of my coins as they grew in value. I checked the Ledger Nano S and the Trezor Wallet, and I liked the Ledger more. Do any of you guys have experience with either (or both) of them?

Have been using blockchain.info as my main bitcoin wallet for years now without problem, it can also be used to store ether and bitcoin cash. Just use some of the more advanced security options like 2fa and ip restrictions to make your account a bit more safe. If you want a safer option to hold a large number of coins then you should probably opt forr a paper wallet. Tutorials on how to make paper wallets can be found everywhere, even here on the forum.
