I'm a bit new in the forum and still trying to figure out how so many things work, I would love to know how to get a functional wallet address or a step-by-step guide on how to create one.
OP I can see packs of wallets suggested to you and more will follow after now and that can be a little confusing to you on which to pick. But just a friendly advise start with an electrum wallet.
You may be wondering why electrum wallet. Yeah, that's because it's easy and simple to use, it's newbie friendly and a sturd security.
Electrum wallet is :
1 It's open source
2. Supports multiple currency
3. It's compatible etc
In the process of time as you endure in the forum when you would have gotten more knowledgeable about other bitcoin/cryptocurrency wallets you can try those advanced user wallet.
