Wallets in the form of a computer application. These wallets can be used only on the computer on which they are installed so their mobility is low. Of course, we can install such a wallet on a USB key (pendrive) and use it on almost any computer, but the mobility is still not very satisfying. These portfolios are divided into portfolios:

- Full. Storing the entire block chain (Blockchain). Long synchronization time and high resource consumption. Wallets: Bitcoin Core (original bitcoin wallet), Armory - We do not recommend new users!

- Light. The block chain is stored on servers and not on the computer as in the case of full portfolios. They are characterized by fast synchronization with the network and low resourceivness. We recommend: Multibit


Offline wallets (without internet contact). Serving as a safe for storing bitcoins. Mobility is very low, with the exception of Paper Wallet, which allows eg printing a banknote of any denomination. Wallets: PaperWallet


Browser wallets - A wallet provided by a website providing this type of services. To use the wallet, we only need a browser on any computer / phone / tablet. High mobility at the cost of less security, because the security of our funds depends on third parties. Wallets: greenaddress.it, Coinbase.com and instant wallets (for single use only - very low security). Browser portfolios are only suitable for short-term storage of small amounts!
