I think the safest Wallet is Blockchain.
Blockchain is the 1st bitcoin wallet in the world and the most widely used. And being the first wallet to provide a crypto bitcoin storage facility, Blockhain is closely related to the current bitcoin economic growth.
Hopefully my answer helps you.

Can you suggest me what bitcoin wallet is the safest? and why?
I dont know Because I dont have Bitcoin  Grin but My friend says Ledger nano is from some hardware options of existing bitcoin wallets,Ledger has been creating hardware for Bitcoin security since 2014 and most importantly strong security is offered With Ledger Nano S, secrets like private keys are never exposed: sensitive operations are isolated inside your hardware wallet within a state-of-the-art Secure Element, locked by a PIN code.

They are two types of wallet
Software wallet
Hardware wallet
If you gonna to use software wallet use block chain it provides best security to your wallet.Blockchain uses 2FA for authentication and provides more secure.
Else if you gonna use hardware wallet use trezor.Normally hardware wallet has more secure and advantages than software wallet.The hardware wallet the private keys are stored in the protected area of microcontroller so it cannot be transferred out of device as plain text.
Other than this hardware wallet provide more secure.

A wallet is nothing but just a private key associated with the public key. You need the private key to spend the funds available in that wallet and hence you should take EXTREME precaution while choosing and using wallet. I believe that offline wallets maintained with proper security precautions is the best way to keep the funds secure. I am using paper wallet (less flexible) and Trezor wallet (little expensive as compared to the paper wallet) to store my 95% funds.

This question was answered lot many times before. You could have used the search function before posting the question.

A wallet doesn't hold your coins. It just holds the private keys. Private keys are the keys used for spending the coins. You can store the private keys in a online wallet or a software wallet or a hard wallet.

1. If you hold large balances of btc, I would advice you to stay away from the online wallets. Almost all the newbies would go for the online wallets since they don't need to download the whole blockchain which is around 150 GB of size. Online wallets comprises of exchange wallets, casino wallets etc. Most of the online wallets are subjected to hacks which will lead to the losing of your coins because online wallets control your keys. If you hold few satoshis, online wallets like blockchain.info may be good to go.

2. If you have a good PC with decent hard disk space, you can use Core or armory wallet whereas if you don't have hard disk space to sync the complete block chain, you can go for electrum.

3. On the other hand, if your crypto savings are large then you need to invest $100-120 and buy a hard wallet. Wallets like Ledger Nano and Trezor are good to go. In hard wallets you hold your keys in a USB drive which can be stolen only if you lose your hardware wallet.

4. If you are not ready to buy a hardware wallet and feel like stingy, create a paper wallet and store it in a safe place. Unless you don't know to create a paper wallet, stay away from it. Web wallets like green address are worth mentioning.

5. Mobile wallets like mycelium are good choice.

Some wallets like blockchain.info, mycelium still use legacy address where you need to pay high for transaction fees.

Nano Ledger S – Hardware Wallet
Trezor – Hardware Wallet
Coinbase – Hot Wallet

If you mean blockchain.info then you’re wrong. It’s an online wallet so can be hacked. Nowhere near as safe as Bitcoin QT or hardware & paper wallets.

I do use blockchain.info for smaller spends & have never had a problem with it but no way would I ever leave my main stash on an online wallet.

I think offline wallet are safer than any online wallet. Now a day, hackers or scams are roaming a lot to break your security. So i believe offline wallets are unbreakable.

You can use blockchain wallet with all 2fa for related account. But offline wallet would be more safe, I think.

The best safe wallet is bitcoin core but it needs to download the whole blockchain just make sure you save all private keys or seed phrase if you make a wallet for safety keep your private keys or seed phrase in the piece of paper that you can put in your pocket.

The other best bitcoin wallet is hardware wallets like trezor and ledger nano s and electrum wallet which is the best option if you want to save your bitcoin for a long time because I haven't experienced any issue about this wallet just always make sure that you put an extra layer of security like adding a password to encrypt your wallet.dat.

Solving blocks can't be solved without my rigs.
