I use blockchain.info, coinbase, mytrezor, and I am considering either Electrum or Multibit once they add trezor support. I use each of them for separate reasons, and I also like to keep coins spread out in different places.

I haven't tried Hive or Circle yet, but I want to give each of them a go...any comments on either of these?

Is there any halfway decent app for iPhone? Or anything in the works?
I either use my android tablet or the blockchain website, but both are cumbersome...

Multibit but all coins, keys, and wallets are stored off line. No way I would keep a btc stash on a computer connected to the Internet.

Electrum is one of the easiest wallets and the fact that it adds a new receiving address after you have used one, it's a plus, I really like it.

My "working wallet" is GreenAddress.it. I keep less than 2BTC there - enough to buy something substantial if a deal arises, or to sell some Bitcoin face-to-face to someone who is interested in getting involved.

All of my savings are in long-term cold storage. I have custom 3d printed objects with my protected public and private keys and corresponding QR codes. Those are BIP 32 HD wallets, so I never deposit to the same address. The physical keys are BIP 38, so you'd need both the root private key and the passphrase to matter.

Finally, I may or may not have multiple passphrases used for the same private key. If the time ever came where I was forced to reveal my passphrase, an attacker could not be sure that he'd gotten all or even most of my reserves.

No problem, after you try it, report back here and let us know how you like it...   I would try it myself, but I have a jailbroken iphone and the ios is so old that itunes won't even recognize it to allow me to update to 7.x.   I was super stoked to hear that it was going to support both BTC and LTC, since I use both...

It is a decent option, but the bottom line is that you DO NOT hold control of the private keys.   This means that if something happens to Coinbase (as a company), or if the government or something comes through and tells them to freeze your account (for any reason), then you cannot access your coins.

By using Coinbase as your wallet, you are trusting them to hold onto all of your funds, and there is no guarantee that if something happens that you will get your coins back.

I use them to purchase BTC, and I keep a very small amount there, but I would not leave the majority of my holdings there.

Also, (and this is my opinion), because of how much they are into compliance and things like that, I could see them being the very first company to start issuing 1099s to their users around tax time...

Well, that is a very good reason not to use them then, I am going to have to think about other ways to do this.  I guess my problem is selling the coins if I want to sell them, they are so easy to do but I definitely don't want to get taxed on that.

So if I have a flash drive I can create a cold storage correct?  Then when I connect it to a computer, I just want to make sure it is not on the internet?

I am new on this so sorry about the questions!

Using exchange wallet for now.

The exchange have the policy of keeping 95% of customer fund in cold wallet. And they have pass 3rd party audit before.
