Which Bitcoin Client do you use and why ? If you use web wallets, please do mention which one is your choice and why ?

I use Multibit desktop wallet because You cant solomine BTC unless you have 1 Phash/s or more in mining power so why deal with the whole sync and crap, I dont use online wallets because none of them are secure in any way and most of them take to long for transfers, Multibit does not have to completely sync and has a very fast transfer. gives me all the benefits of the qt wallet without the wait

If I were solo-mining BTC I would have to get a qt wallet But I am not I solo mine low difficulty shit coins and trade them for BTC hahahahahaha

Having  a wallet like QT that acts as a node for the network is not only good if you are solo mining. Running a full node will help the network and will help decentralize the network.

I do agree that wallets like multibit are good for the masses as it is very simply to use and does not take up a lot of computer resources.

I agree. Bitcoin-QT is very good for the network. Using it is kind of like giving back to the community in a sense.

Why to even introduce bitcoin atms in public, when normal gentry has no idea about bitcoins.

That's for only future imo.

I think this is the wrong topic to discuss that?
There's probably one laying around somewhere here though.

I use blockchain and multibit. Both of them work flawlessly for me. I use Multibit more, and I have more money in my multibit wallet.

I have started using Trezor more and more.   I like to have money spread across different clients....I like being able to access coins from cell phone, desktop, or laptop without having to jump through too many hoops...

I still use Blockchain. Just save the identifier on your phone, and it's really easy to login. And links to tx's are easy to click and find.

I use btc-e...works damn fine for me. No issues till now.

I have used blockchain before but didn't use much.

[Wooden Plate]

I use blockchain.info because its the most reliable according to me.

You use BTC-E as your wallet?   That is very highly not recommended.   If something happens to the exchange, or if your account gets frozen for some odd reason, you lose all of your coins.

Every person here will tell you to never leave any coins on their that you don't plan on trading.  There have been too many horror stories such as Mt. Gox...

My first and only wallet is Electrum, it's really easy to use for a newbie like me.

[Hobbes2]

For local wallets I think Multibit is the best (and they are working on a new version that looks awesome). For convenience, blockchain.

This is why so many people lost their money in Gox. They assumed that the exchange they were using was a great way to keep their money safe when it was not. It also likely caused Gox to become a larger target for attackers then it should have been as the reward for successfully attacking Gox would be great.

Getting convenience and security together is difficult. U have to accept the trade-off.

I use the simple Bitcoin Core wallet. For earnings I use one of the exchange wallets.

Btc-e suddenly changed their deposit addresses a few weeks back. Be careful while using it.

Dont they provide a new address for every deposit ? If all deposit go to one address, then how do they identify ?

[Bit_Play]

Electrum under Tails. Best for me.

Where does Electrum and Armory store data ? Online or locally ? What's wrong with Blockchain.info ?
