Dear Members!
My friend wants to buy a bigger amount before the next halving and wants to store them in a secure place for 4-5 years.
What do you prefer, where to store the coins?
1. In a few Exchanges?
Maybe he need to split some exchange like Coinbase, Cex, Bitstamp, etc. I think Coinbase is very secure, they have insurance and vault feature.
BUT: Cryptsy was hacked now, and every other exchange can be hacked nowadays
2. He bought a ledger nano wallet, but what happens if Ledger Inc. close in 2018 for example?
3. They can store in paper wallet in a safety place. I don't know too much from paper wallets, I never used them.
4. Or just simply download the latest client and copy wallet.dat to 2-3 USB Pendrive and store them different places?
5. Or mixed all the ways that I wrote, so for example: 20% exchanges, 30% hardware wallet, 30% wallet.dat file, 20% paper wallet?
The main question is: Where you store your coins to sleep calm?
