What are the best wallets in 2025 for serious holders and casual users?

Okay, so I’ve officially hit that point in my crypto journey where I need to consolidate my setup. Between mobile apps, browser extensions, and that one hardware wallet I forgot the PIN for (don’t ask), I’m realizing I need to pick one or two of the best wallets and stick to them.
The thing is—“best” means different things to different people. Some folks want privacy, others want staking, and some just want something that doesn’t look like it was designed in 2017. I’m somewhere in the middle. I want good security, solid support for different coins (especially ETH, BTC, and some newer L2s), and ideally something I can use both on mobile and desktop.
I’ve tried MetaMask, Trust Wallet, and Phantom for Solana stuff. I like parts of each but none of them feel like the complete solution. And don’t even get me started on syncing between devices—it’s 2025, and some of these apps still make that harder than it should be.
So what are you all using now? Are the “OG” wallets still holding up, or is there a new player in town that’s actually doing things right? Curious what wallets people are defaulting to these days for day-to-day use and long-term holding.
