Can we add the new Copay wallet to the list? BitPay has done an excellent job with it built upon bitcore.
Bitpay needs to work on the marketing of copay. Very few users know about copay because it's still in beta phase. |

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in
Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

I am sticking to the original Bitcoin Core wallet.
I don't see anything wrong with it so I didn't look for anything else.

A few things that can wrong with it are: your computer can be compromised (whether from the internet or someone you know) or your computer can crash and you haven't saved your wallet recently (and had money sent to new addresses that weren't yet saved in your old wallet.dat). |

I voted for my Favorite wallet ELECTRUM It's fast, it's safe and it's convenient, I just love it. I have 2, one is kinda like a hot wallet and it stays on-line, another one is for cold storage and both work great. @OP you should add more wallets in the poll from here: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet |

Oh, don't worry about it. I have backups of the wallet.dat on 2 locations. So even if my PC crashes and it's lost, I can recover my wallets  |

Don't know yet.

my favorite bitcoin wallet is Coinbase because of its security.
they make long way just for changing password,
like confirming on email, ask on sms, and make a google auth..
for security reason, I choose coinbase...

yes sir, Coinbase is cool because not even they can steal their own bitcoins unless its a group effort, and come to think of it, I don't trust myself all too well either.
You should probably find out what happens to your money when their business fails and they declare bankruptcy. |

Looks like there's a new hardware Bitcoin wallet in town: http://choosecase.com/Not sure I'm feeling the pricetag though.  |

Either use Mycelium or my Trezor. I do keep some on Coinbase for some purchases since many vendors use that one also.
Also used Armory for awhile but the old one took forever and a day to load on an old I5 laptop.

Actually I looked up everything there is to look up about Case, and I really like it. I preordered one. It is almost a category on its own, being more secure than a trezor or maybe even cold storage, but easier to spend from than an iOS wallet. And you can also link it to your bank account so you can buy more bitcoin right in your wallet when you need to. Pretty sweet if you ask me. |

I chose Electrum because that's the one I have been using from a long time, I have also used Multibit but I find Electrum to be more user friendly.
I have a question on wallets and I am going to ask here instead of opening a new thread. I have never used Mobile wallets, never had any use for them but nowadays I find myself sometimes away from my PC and a need to send BTC and I was thinking of installing one and if someone has any suggestions on which one should I use, kindly let me know.
I need it somewhat like electrum, meaning I don't want to download the whole blockchain and I need it to have the ability to import/export private keys.
PS: My phone has Android OS.

I used to use bitcoin core but it is way too clunky now. Especially with the 40GB blockchain. Now I just use blockchain.info.
It is quick and easy and accessible everywhere.
Although I haven't really explored some other wallets anyway, so I can't really talk.

I agree that Bitcoin Core is quite sluggish, but it is probably one of the better options regarding to storing your coins on pc. I really hope you dont store all your coins online as the risk of losing your coins is quite high with online storage. |

Yep, original works wonders. Why risk it with anything else if Bitcoin-Qt works just fine? I understand others may appreciate the functionality of other wallets, but for those who don't Bitcoin-Qt is and will probably always be the safest option.

The signature campaign posters adding useless redundant fluff to their posts to reach their minimum word count are lowering my IQ.

Bitcoin-QT isn't safer than holding money on a safely made paper wallet. |
