regular wallets for example such as Etherscan and Windows wallets,which do you think is the most secure for each campaign you participate in?
let's share a little because every Windows wallet I have ever participated in always fails to be exchanged or sold when the token is on the market exchange..


First of all, Etherscan is not a wallet unless I'm missing something because they are Ethereum Blockchain Explorer. Maybe you are referring to Web wallet(MyEtherwallet for example) compared Desktop Wallet like Electrum right?

Desktop wallet is safer than Web wallet because your data  is securely on your PC unlike Web wallet that you are prone on phishing. But it's more convenient to use Web wallet because you can access your wallet wherever you are. There is a pros and cons on each wallet type, It depends on your preference to choose the most suited to you.
I mean the Windows wallet offered by every small sample campaign like the bitdepositary bounty..
.

You mean Wallet Application? I'm not familiar on bitdepositary wallet, I try to google it and I found out that the website is not working anymore so I really don't get your point about windows wallet. AFAIK, Windows wallet are wallets that you can access via Windows OS  Grin.

Anyway, the wallet that you holds the key (private key, recovery seed and other key) to access the wallet is the safest wallet to use.
