Looks like hardware wallet is easy way and most secure for store btc :D
but you must have a budget xD

thanks for this info, I will try it. but as long as I am still safe to use blockchain + google authenticator. if I lose i will change the way security

like Trezor? unfortunately I found it difficult to get it in my country.

although i order abroad need cost a lot, because the shipping cost is very high

Yes.
what i said, you must have a budget... a lot xD

thanks for this info, very useful yes even though I was still safe to use blockchain using 2FA

Thank you for this post. It`s very good summary and it help a lot of people to keep they Bitcoins safe.

Thanks so much for sharing info here. They are particularly useful for newbies like me :)

you are welcome.

yeahh it suitable for users who have a lot of bitcoin, unlike me hihi  :D

some really good tips on there , honestly the easiest way is just going offline and creating a paper wallet 100% safe and very easy.

Well i do leave some coins in a wallet installed on a computer which is not in any way connected to the net. And it doesn't have  any program installed in it other than the wallet program. Of course hardware wallet is still the best option here but I'm still looking for the right one with the right price.

maybe just use walletoffline whoe never online and installapps
orvisit unfamiliar ste.

that is really great sharing about wallet security,
it's much helpful for newbie to bitcoin.

For me, online wallet is the way to go. Other ones are more secure but so paranoid.

Use blockchain.info if you have small amounts of bitcoins or bitaddress.org for a paper wallet. It is recommended to use a paper wallet if you are wanting a secure wallet. Or you can get a multisig wallet.

Paranoid, yes. But I'd like to be a little paranoid when my Bitcoins are involved.

They might be worth $500 today but we don't know how much they'll be in future, so I better keep them as safe as possible.
