Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Is it safe to keep all of my assets in Bitcoins? And how Department for Combating Economic Crimes, can affect my account?  What permissions they need , to freeze all my money ?

Of course bitcoins is the safest it's anonymous but it is not totally anonymous because your transactions are saved forever in network anyone can see your bitcoin balance and transactions of any bitcoin address. but bitcoins are the safest. 

Well it is safe indeed but keep in mind that if you keep everything in one wallet and you get hacked, you're finished! Wink

Have you heard about offline computers? Erm desktop wallets with no internet connection? Only thing you need to 'claim' all of your bitcoins is the private key. Don't even get me started on Paper wallets. You're missing on a lot if you think bitcoin can be easily hacked, its usually users' fault when their bitcoin wallet is hacked. Now human stupidity is one thing that you can't manage to decrease

Basically and in generally, yes.

After all the security of your bitcoins can only be managed and improve with your own way of security.

Some of the lost bitcoin cases are really a user's fault.

In the most cases its the user's fault, they do not secure it good or do not know how the system is working, I think a paper wallet is the safest way to protect your bitcoins.
Its of course only if you have large amounts of bitcoins if you got low amounts you can just use a online wallet because you are no target.

Paper wallet is not safe too if the user will mistakenly lost it or get crumple. Smiley

The point of bitcoin security by users is to help all the given option to make it secure.

For example, someone told you paper wallet is safe, then literally make it as more secure by taking care of it.

Same goes to other safe option.

I think it is. Many people use it very much. I hope more people will use it in the future and some companies too.
The online wallets are very secure too. And that is very good. I hope the value will rise later in the future.
Companies are not going to join and invest in bitcoin, if bitcoin is not so safe. they need proof?
Do you think What proof that bitcoin is safe?
I think number of users of bitcoin already proved that bitcoin is very safe

Paper wallet doesnt mean that You are literally saving your bitcoin in a piece of paper , as long as you remember or save every passphrases, secret key and the address of the paper wallet then you can always access your bitcoin . Paper wallet is just another form of cold wallet , much more conventional than usual cold wallet and much more secure of course

That's true bitcoin is very safe at a moment, and we have not faced any issues related to bitcoins, as it is almost impossible to steal bitcoins from wallet or to hack the wallet.

Bitcoin is about as safe as your credit card x999 if you keep it safe. There are just so many ways to stop hacking that it's basically impossible to hack somebody's bitcoin. Of course if you're talking about price, bitcoin isn't safe at all. The price could go to a million per btc, or drop to pennies a bitcoin. It's your choice.

Correct, it is safe when it comes to holding in your wallet, but cannot be sure about the value and its price, as it is too volatile in nature, anything is possible with it in near future.

that is true, bitcoin is very nice to be put on tradings,as its prices moves ups and down, and you can profit short term, the only downside of that is when something wrong happens to the trading site..  but over all when manged right bitcoin is safe..  Smiley

Maybe.There are risk always. There are many factors to consider to say how safe our bitcoins is.If you use offline wallet hen you must have some backup with your wallet files,password ,etc.

If you are using  online wallet, there are risk of hacking.How about the site becomes offline and inaccessible?

It is very safe. Many people like it to use it and its used international. Many companies use it to. So it must be safe.
The online wallets are very secure too, so that is very good. Bitcoin is just a very good currency.

The bitcoin itself is very safe to use and do payments with, the only thing you have to know is that your wallets can be hacked because of your own faults of course.
If you store bitcoins do it in multiple wallets so you won't lose everything at once if you get hacked.

Indeed there is always a risk. But that risk you must should take. I think Bitcoin is very safe, and many people use it so it must be safe.

I think the most online wallets are also very secure too so that is good.
