  abstract = {Bitcoin cryptocurrency has risen in popularity. Therefore, it not only attracts users to use it, but also it attracts the malware developers to attack it. While online Bitcoin wallets allow users to conveniently store and manage their bitcoins, they are vulnerable to several attacks. There are several existing solutions that attempt to provide Bitcoin wallet security. We analysed them and compared them based on several criteria and determined that the existing solutions for securing online Bitcoin wallets used by individuals are vulnerable. We described the threat models for a Bitcoin two-factor wallet, analysed the risk, and presented the risk-treatment plan. We proposed a Bitcoin three-factor wallet that provides several security features on both the server and the client sides. This new proposed wallet is secured against some attacks. It takes a reasonable time to perform the transactions and is convenient to use.
