Having a safe Bitcoin wallet is the most important detail of being a cryptocurrency holder. You should be aware that a number of online Bitcoin Wallets are extremely dangerous. This is why most of our recommendations are easy-to-use cold Bitcoin wallets.
1. (Free Online Wallet) FreeBitcoins.com – FreeBitcoins offers a free Bitcoin wallet for anyone that signs up on our altcoin exchange. Not only will you receive a free BTC wallet, but you will also to other popular cryptocurrencies such as Clamcoin, Litecoin, Namecoin, Wownero, and others.
2. (Cold Wallet Wallet) Trezor – This is our go-to device for storing cryptocurrency long-term locally. Trezor’s are extremely easy to use and thus far have proven to be a safe device for users to trust. We highly recommend investing in a Trezor if you plan on being a “copy and paste” cryptocurrency user, & don’t desire to learn the guts of cryptocurrency. Trezors cost $60 USD for the base version and $194 for the fancy Model T. I have both… I think the $60 is fine honestly.
Trezor’s can also serve as a U2F (Universal 2nd-Factor) hardware token. This can be used to protect your Google account and other accounts.
3. (Bitcoin’s main wallet) Bitcoin Core – You will need to download and sync this wallet. This wallet makes you an actual part of Bitcoin potentially. It’s big and bulky, but it’s as secure as Bitcoin comes. I prefer the Trezor for my stuff on the go, but Bitcoin Core is likely safer.
