Wallets
There are tons of choices out there for wallets. For most people we recommend setting up an account with Strike to buy and spend bitcoin. Strike is a custodial wallet, so make sure not to keep your savings there. We recommend using a Bitkey for long term savings. Below are lists of great alternative bitcoin-only wallets you might want to consider.
Custodial (for convenience)
- Exchanges (for buying bitcoin with your bank account)
- Lightning Wallets
- Multisig Vault Services
Self Custodial (for 100% ownership and added privacy)
- Hot Wallets (phone wallets)
- Lightning Wallets (for spending w/ your phone)
- Multisig
- Fully featured (for full control over transactions, UTXOs, and privacy)
- Hardware Devices (for added security)
