So a guy gave me some bitcoin thru a website called paxful.com i have the bitcoin money on there know i have no idea what to do. i have read stuff about bitcoin wallets, should i get a wallet or is the website paxful.com a wallet?
You can check out this sub-board:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=37.0those are alternative wallet aside from the Bitcoin Core. You can read about
every wallet out there and decide for yourself what wallet you are going to
used. But, I personally used electrum wallet though, I just created a standard
wallet and I'm ready to go, and because its fast and you don't have to download
the full node. Also, I think you also need how to secure your wallet by having a
password once you have installed it.
GoodLuck!!!
