I am also using Blockchain for the most of my bitcoin operations, but the biggest part of coins I am holding on my USB wallet, this way I feel more safe. If to talk about online wallets I know that money that I hold there is kinda not mine, it's wallet's money, and when one day the site will be closed I may loose everything. So, I prefer the wallet in which I am more sure.

I use the 'official' Bitcoin wallet for android phones from Google PlayStore. Mainly because I want to have my Bitcoins anywhere I go, and that is limited with a PC wallet. Also, it is pretry small so you can download it fast and easy. It has the functions like every other wallet has and it is all in my pocket.

There is no official wallet (not even if you use air quotes). Calling core 'official' because of market-share is the same as saying: - Windows 7 is the official operating system for computers.
- Android is the official operating system for phones.
- The iPhone is the official phone.
- And Chrome is the official browser of the internet.

If you have to ask "why?", you wouldn`t understand my answer. Always be on the look out, because you never know when you'll be stalked by hit-men that eat nothing but cream cheese....

Blockchain.info because of convenience of access. It's great to use everyday amounts of BTC. On computer I'm using Electrum. It's fast and light. On phone no one can beat Mycelium to store pocket amounts of BTC.

I am using Multibit, I tried to use the official blockchain but it was quite heavy, I use multibit because its lite weight, though I have not tried any other and this one was also suggested by a guy who introduced me to bitcoin. Its working alright I guess.
If you have an andorid phone, I'd recommend you to use MyCelium because that is what I am using now and for a few years already. It is as light as multibit and you can send/receive your Bitcoin anywhere and anytime as long as you have a good internet connection. Yes, MyCelium is good. Online wallet is appropriate for people who only want to save a few amount of bitcoin because the security is lower than hardware wallet bitcoin. But online wallet such blockchain or MyCelium is really practicaly to use. I used MyCilium on my android phone , but I am mist using online wallets , There are many good wallet but blockchain is my most favorite. I judt love the interface and some features of blockchain. i also use online walelt like xapo and coinbase that let me choose zero fee, they are very good now with the high fee, local wallet only for cold storage for me, and anddroid wallet only for very small amount when i'm out of home and i need to purchase something I don't know about other xapo users, but I got an e-mail the other day that they will start passing on the transaction fees to the customer (not for their own profit). And they will allow an option to have a standard or priority transaction...with priority having a higher transaction fee and quicker transaction apparently.

Which Bitcoin Client do you use and why ? If you use web wallets, please do mention which one is your choice and why ?
I only use bitcoin.co.id ... maybe because I'm new in bitcoin world ... and if I think bitcoin.co.id has been satisfactory for me ... but if the masters have input for me .. Please confirm to me ... thanks a lot ...

Personally I suggest to use online Blockchain wallet, because if you use desktop wallet it can make transactions for hours. And for larger BTC amounts BTC Trezor will be ok.

Of all the hot wallets that have come and gone in the past few years, I still like blockchain.info and it's ease of use. I initially got introduced to coinbase and blockchain.info back in the end of 2012 and they were one of the few that were actually user friendly. I am a creature of habit so I have stuck with them for hot wallets.
I don't store very much in hot wallets but I never used multi bit or any of the clients that required downloads.
Over time I have become a firm believer in hardware wallets

Are many of you using Electrum? That is one of the other major wallets that I have never tried? I was also wondering how many of you use trezor in addition to multi-bit or electrum?
I've never tried the combo of a trezor with an additional wallet...just seems like additional steps to me. What are the upsides to using a service like multi-bit or electrum on top of trezor?

I use Electrum, I planned to use bitcoin core in the beginning and even link it with Armory but the size of the blockchain was too much, Most of my PC is full and I need to clean a ~100 GB space, and then wait for it to download (and it would be costly with my internet bandwidth plan), Electrum synced in less than an hour and usable with ease.

I currently use 3 Wallets(Poloniex, Coinomi and Blockchain) and have some coins in all of them except Blockchain. Blockchain got emptied into my bank account recently...it usually get some coin weekly from Poloniex, Bitcointalk Campaigns and Steemit. My Coinomi is partly for long term coin storage and light trading.

I use electrum wallet, both the desktop and the mobile version. I used to use blockchain, but after read post about private key, i decided to use electrum. Tried to use bitcoin core, but the download size is quite amazing that i close it right away.

Please mention the name of app you are holding in your phone. That i can access easily. But there are a lot of sites for saving bitcoin. This not just a blockchain.info there are a lot one of them is coinbase.com and many more. So I guess there a lot of clients it’s hard to mention in a single line.

The wallet that i currently use now is electrum wallet because it is one of the trusted wallet even back in the past and electrum also is safe for me because it has a 2 factor authentication which offers more layers in the security and i can fully export my private keys aside from my password seeds so i am more comfortable because i can control anything but the downside for me is their fees is higher than some of the wallets that i already used but it is worth it for me to pay those fees in exchange of their service.

That’s a good place for placing your Bitcoin since there is a whole bunch of people placing their coins on that website. I would have some sort of backup client that stored more Bitcoins than on Blockchain because pretty much anything online could get hacked within a matter of seconds.

How many of you are still using Armory? I remember that Armory was all of the craze a few years ago for having the heaviest/best security before all the hardware wallets.
I never started using it because it was a little confusing for me, so I stuck to blockchain.info for hot wallets for awhile and then moved to hardware wallets as more and more of those started coming out.

BitcoinQT out of tradition and Mycelium because it handles well spending from paperwallets. Evangelizing Bitcoin by tipping people with paperwallets and not having a good way to redeem paperwallets other than Mycelium pretty much forces me to this.
