I keep almost all my coins on the Exodus/Eden desktop wallet, which supports about 30 various coins, and can be recovered from any computer with a 12-word pass phrase, that I keep in my safe.  I have only two coins that are not supported by Exodus/Eden, and I just keep them on their own wallet or on an exchange.  The key is to print your recovery phrases or private keys and keep them in a secure place, and your coins will always be safe against computer crashes.

I'm using Electrum & mew. Private keys are saved in password protected .xlsx lists and stored in multiple hard drives.



But still how can you protect yourself if a hacker has a RAT on your computer and can just copy your password whenever you type it in?
It doesn't matter, if your machine is infected a hacker might as well copy the wallet file, the mnemonic seed, password or whatever he/she wants. When a hacker has access, all bets are off.
I think one minimizes the risk is to install antivirus in your computer and then add certain authentication to your wallet. like sms verify so when the hacker has got the password you type. they will not be able to enter your wallet because they have to enter sms verify first to be able to access the account..

I am more confident to hold altcoins in big markets like poloniex and VIP, I am always uncomfortable if I save them on MEW or waveplatform because it always makes users panic when hackers master private key user, for koin2 which only enter in small market then I will immediately sell and re-focus in large markets.

Definitely a hardware wallet like a Ledger Nano. Then an exchange for the few that isn't supported by the Ledger. It's best not to hold coins at an exchange...
