Lets talk about what wallets we have been using in the past and now,which will be helpful for the people to find our right wallets for their needs.

If you changed wallets from one to another then you also can mention the reasons.

I am currently using electrum for storing bitcoin and stored my private keys in hard drive and MEW for ethereum and tokens.I did used coinbase when I was new but lately found that it is not safe to hold cryptos for long.

I don't like using windows wallet because of few reasons like getting easily hacked ,PC might get walware or viruses anytime ,so I started using mobile wallets since 2016 ,the first one I like using and still using till date is copay wallet ,no issues so far but limited with bitcoin wallet only so I moved to coinomi mobile wallet for altcoins which I've been using since 2016 as well ,no single issue so far and it support almost all popular coins available on coinmarket cap

I did used coinbase when I was new but lately found that it is not safe to hold cryptos for long.
Coinbase is not a wallet! People, please, this is something everyone has to be aware of, but many people aren't. By definition, wallet is something you control, not another company on your behalf. So, yes, use electrum for bitcoin, that is a good option. I use it too. For ETH, use MEW, even though it is a web wallet, just because there is no other good option for ETH. But don't use exchanges' wallets to hold your coins. It is not healthy at all.

I am currently using electrum for storing bitcoin and stored my private keys in hard drive and MEW for ethereum and tokens.
I think you shouldn't write your private keys on a hard drive. Or at least create a back up and write it on a piece of paper that you can keep or a type of paper that won't get old by time. I have used electrum before but I shifted to a ledger nano s now for keeping bitcoin.

I'm planning to get my ledger nano x soon.

I did used coinbase when I was new but lately found that it is not safe to hold cryptos for long.
Yeah true that our funds aren't secured on exchanges, we don't hold and they don't the private keys.

I am not holding huge amount of bitcoin so I thought a hardware wallet for me is not needed so just stick with electrum and also always updating it to get better security.

Writing at the piece of paper is good but not sure about the reliability of it,so have digital backup only.

I use Electrum wallet for Bitcoin.
For Ethereum and Tokens, I use Metamask (I believe that it is more secure than entering keys into MyEtherWallet).

i have always used exchanges for altcoins because as you said it yourself, it suits my "needs". and when it comes to choosing a cryptocurrency wallet you must always consider your specific needs. and exchanges satisfy my need for the short term owning of altcoins since i never hold any of them for any longer than their pump lasts.

as for bitcoin i have two types of wallets. one is a paper wallet for cold storage and long term holding and the other is electrum for desktop to send and receive coins as hot wallet.

I have tried many wallets
Blockchain : my first wallet when I first got to know Bitcoin, and filled it with Bitcoin from Faucet results (2014 - 2015)
Coinbase : This wallet I used when I played HYIP really liked this wallet because at that time there was no fee ( 2016 - 2017 )
MyEtherWallet and Indodax (Local Exchange) : after getting to know the world of ICO and Bounty ( Mid 2017 - Now )
By the way I've also tried Ledger Nano S, this wallet is very safe but after I don't think it really needs it I just leave it blank

MEW only support ethereum and tokens so what will you do if you want to store any other crypto currencies?

I started out in 2017 with a Bitcoin paper wallet. It was my first experience and I can't clearly remember how I stumbled on that. Perhaps used it twice or three time before moving on to the blockchain.info web wallet same year. I have held that wallet till date without any issues of hack. I also tried Electrum in 2017 for a few transactions until it had that phishing issue where several accounts were compromise. In 2018 I tried the Coinomi wallet which has proved to be as reliable as the blockchain wallet.

For ERC tokens, I use Imtoken which is more reliable than MEW with all its complications on keystones and Private Key. Imtoken is very easy to use and has so many ERC tokens.

I also use coinbase before and xapo for faucets.

I had the same experience. With tokens I got from many projects (especially in 2017 and early 2018), I usually used and still am using  the MyEtherWallet which is very reliable to me as long as one should not be sharing one's PK so we have to be careful with phishing sites. As for Bitcoin, I usually do not have much of that so I just left my Bitcoin with a reliable local exchange so that I can convert into the local cash anytime I wanted to. I got two accounts in Coinbase but they are just for promotions right now. I also managed to open one Xapo wallet but was not able to use it. Based on my bad experience,  am now careful with downloaded wallets because I was once a victim of a malware with that.

Seeing yr rank in the bitcointalk shows you are not a newbies and asking what kind of wallet people use and why they change it to me is not a good idea.

Because I believe u know most wallet people used and why they are used but asking personal question about wallet is not a secure discussion to my own opinion and will advice to stay away from it cause there scammer every where and willing to know what and why people use various wallet and securing measure about them to know how to bye pass them .

I am not asking their private keys or anything personal,just discussing about their experience with the wallet will reduce the time for the newbie to select the right wallet for them initially.Anyone found discussing about our wallet experience is inappropriate?
