And the best wallet is...

[maurya78]

Bitcoin-qt, marries safet and reliability better than any alternatives

[umair127]

I think multibit is the best. No long blockchain download and can easily import and export keys.

Desktop!

Best wallet is a wallet that is under your control.
If you want to transfer btc in and out I suggest android bitcoin wallet (official).

For desktop - Bitcoin qt (example)

If you want to buy some BTC and hodl - paper wallet / cold wallet

Never heard about this one, I'll check it out!

About which of them you never heard?

i am using online wallet i thinks its better for me! bcoz i never heard about other one if any one clear me difference in those about best please

Ok - if you are using online wallet - if server is down - you cannot use your wallet, it there will be some attack on this server you may lose your btc.

That is why I recommend to DO NOT keep your money @ online wallets.

Not quite with blockchain.info. If the site goes down you can still use your wallet.dat on another application. The site is pretty safe. Other online wallets probably aren't though.

Please elaborate on why you think so.

Blockchain.info is very safe, especially with two factor set up and the second password you need to input to send money. It's a shame the other wallets don't have this cos if you have a keylogger then you're shit outta luck.

You say that blockchain.info security sux, but you give no reason?

Blockchain.info does not have access to your private keys.  That means that nobody at blockchain.info can access your bitcoins, and that hackers can't get access through the blockchain.info database either.

They also provide you with the ability to create backups of your wallet so that you can still access your bitcoins if blockchain.info disappears.

What security does a desktop provide that is better than blockchain.info?

[DannyHamilton]

You can use some official/very good desktop wallets www.bitcoin.org is recommending

There are no "official" wallets.  Bitcoin is an open source protocol with no international organization in control to make anything "official"

If you will lose money from your online wallet because of some attacks or something, they will never give you back - as they will tell you "it was a free wallet, you are using it on your own risk!"

So better to keep your money close to you. Like on your hard drive.

And if you lost money from your desktop wallet because of some attacks or something, they will never give you the bitcoins back, as they will tell you "it was a free wallet, you are using it at your own risk!"  So, desktop wallet isn't any better for that.

Desktop wallets are a good option for many people, but they can only be used while you are sitting at your computer.  Blockchain.info is a much better option if you desire portability.  It has many useful features and can be accessed from a desktop, tablet, or smartphone.

The best wallet is a cold storage.

[hilariousandco]

The best wallet is a cold storage.

Not really a wallet though, is it?

[roslinpl]

perhaps one of the best bitcoin wallet could be Trezor ...

[durrrr]

The best wallet for me has been the desktop one. recently updated to bitcoin for 0.9 and it has been nice i like it and definatly my favorite of the updates so far.

Indeed 0.9.0 is very good and just if you care about security of your computer your BTC should be very safe!

[cookiemonsterwhat]

Probably the desktop wallet - bitcoin qt imo.

Outside from paperwallets.

[durrrr]

i also used one of the lite wallet once and i lost .5 btc off into outer space and it never showed up on blockchain or nothing. it was a disaster and a waste of 250$ at this point i guess. oh well live and learn. stick to the bitcoin qt or bitcoin core wallet now

I guess that would depend on each individuals interpretation of the definition of the word wallet.  IMO there isn't much difference but maybe if you speaking of a place to hold funds for a short term which I think you are..  Then there is a clear difference.

Indeed.
And we should ask what "best wallet" means.

Because for different purposes different wallets are going to be the best.

But anyway is great to know what you people think about "What is a best BTC wallet".

[Tonka Branded Truck]

I like blockchain.info. I think it is safe enough because they don't have the private keys and you can easily import it to multibit.

[DubFX]

I'd say armory version is the best one.

[TookDk]

Bitcoin-core is the only wallet I trust with more than a few santoshi satoshi.

I must say that mycelium is nice solutions for small amounts, I would definitely used this app more if you could pay with bitcoins anywhere.
