I am using Bitcoin core for my wallet in my windows desktop.  But it is getting very huge.  Anyone can recommend an easy to use and safe bitcoin wallet for Windows?

You can either run Bitcoin core in prune mode or simply use Electrum wallet which I find to be better option.

I also refused to use Bitcoin core a month ago. He began to occupy the whole place on my hard drive and errors began to appear.

Now I'm using Exodus and now I'm happy with everything

If you have large amount of Bitcoins (or other cryptocurrencies/tokens) I advise you to also check out hardware wallets. With them your private keys are safe.

You can't store BTC on ethereum wallet...

You could also use EXODUS > https://www.exodus.io/

I have been using it for 18 months without issue. there are regular updates,
with support for new currencies ongoing.

With Exodus you can control your private keys.

Here are some threads pertaining to Exodus here on BCT >
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2029768.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2326565.0

I can vouch for Electrum also, I use it on the PC and my Smartphone.
Here is the Electrum board of the forum > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=98.0

What do you guys think about Armory? I heard that it is one of the most secure but haven't actually tried it out myself. There are many options available on the market so it's hard to pick one. Logic says the most secure is the best.

In terms of storage, you wouldn't want to keep it on your desktop because it could get hacked into quite easily. There are plenty of scripts nowadays the even use your CPU to mine, let alone get into your wallet. You should keep it cold. Disconnect it from the internet.

If you want to use an easy wallet for windows, then my opinion is the electrum wallet.This wallet is very secured and a good thing about this wallet is that, you can recover your funds by using a secret phrase and also this wallet is very fast, helps in improving user's experience.

The safest way is to use the developer's wallet software, use third-party software should be considered carefully!

It's complicated to use for first time users when comparing it to Electrum. Armory forces you to have a long password making it one secure wallet. Even though it's a secure wallet if you check the pros and cons on bitcoin.org it says that the wallet is vulnerable to malwares.


I don't have yet any idea in different kinds of wallets but here in the Philippines we are using coins.ph for bitcoin wallet because it is very easy to use.

I am using coins.ph app as my bitcoin wallet.  It is easy and efficient to use.  it is very reliable and i feel secure with.  I think it is a good thing that they support bitcoin and crypto currency

You guys need to stop suggesting coins.ph. It's an exchange wallet you don't have access to the private keys which is not a good wallet to use for holding/storing bitcoins in the long run.

I have been using the wallets on blockchain.info for a few years now and it has worked perfectly.  I usually go from cold storage to the online wallet and it's never been an issue for me.  I have had no security issues either with the site.  With a wallet on my PC I need to then worry about security and I would rather leave that up to the blockchain team.
