When it comes down to it, nothing beats the good old fashioned paper wallet!

Yes. I voted for the "can't believe you forgot to put it" choice... because my favorite wallets are my paper wallets.

Good point.  Nothing beats a good paper wallet if laminated and secured in a safety deposit box or fire proof safe.

I like Bitcoin QT but it takes too long to sync. Armory is too sophisticated. I settled for Multibit, which is pretty awesome imo.

Lol, that looks pretty good, but why would you have so many different wallets with 1 BTC each? wouldn't it be way easier to have it all on the same wallet, and print copies of this same wallet?

Perhaps for book keeping purposes.  You spend 1 BTC from 1 paper wallet, you can shred it immediately after. 

Whatever you're left with is what you have.

Blockchain.info I have never had a problem with so I continue to use it for my daily expenses, I also have more in an electrum wallet and to be honest i have not tried any other wallet mainly because I have not needed to. if something isn't broke don't try fix it. Vote electrum-blockchain.info.

[Cruxer]

My first was multibit, but now bitcoin core is synchronizing very fast also , so bitcoin core now

examples for someone who has 10 BTC total:

1) Person had 10 BTC on one paper wallet and loses it, all of it's gone. (Not as worrisome if you're keeping it in a safe or have copies somewhere else all together)

2) Person has 10 BTC on one paper wallet and wants to spend some of it, then uses their phone/tablet/online wallet/bitcoincore to sweep the wallet and that device was compromised, and you lose the money, you lose all of it.

3) Person has 10 BTC on one paper wallet and someone finds the private key (highly improbable, but still possible) and spends it for you.

I have not long been here just a few month so I don't know most of these wallets but I do know Blockchain.info and I will continue to use this until it is not safe to use it anymore.

It's not safe.

Blockchain.info hacked for 255 BTC:

Blockchain.info makes a mistake and doesn't save private key:

Every online storage, cloud service or in general everything which enables 3rd party to be able to access your own data (in this case your money - bitcoin) are not to be trusted. Sooner or later there will be targeted by hackers. Blockchain is not exception here and you can only use it for small transactions. People usually keep there less that 1 BTC for security reasons. I would advise you do the same.

You should have quoted the person above me, but I agree. It's what I always tell people.

My vote is still for paper wallets.

[boopy265420]

My favorite wallet is Bitcoin's original wallet but I gave vote for blockchain.info. The reason why I gave blockchain.info is it is easy to use and I use it as hot wallet with limited funds in it. Bitcoin's wallet is very slow and it takes 25-30 minutes to open so I use it as cold storage.

I do the same thing. It's genius because you can sweep and use just a bit at a time. Mycelium lets us pull from the paper wallet without sweeping, but still (psychologically at least) the wallet feels compromised.

Not sure why online wallets are listed here but never mind. I tried and used almost every one of them in the list here (not online) but nothing beats electrum for me right now. Serves well for my daily use. Fast, responsive, easy to use, multisig, HD, easy to remember recovery option, security. The next one that come closest is Armory

[dhimasnk]

I prefer to keep bitcoin in bitcoinQT because I think it is very safe. And also blockchain.info also very useful for storing my bitcoin (online)

[btcton]

I use blockchain.info for my hot wallet because of its convenience. I have a combination of paper wallet and something else for my cold storage. That seems to be the way to go about it.

[DigiByte]

Can we add the new Copay wallet to the list? BitPay has done an excellent job with it built upon bitcore.

[Undermood]

I am using bitcoin qt and blockchain.info for convenience! Now I try to learn how to use Electrum, which directly shows up all the available address and quite useful.
