[reputedchain]

Exactly, my bitcoins never got scammed or stolen they are pretty safe in my wallet, and I have never experienced any safety issues with bitcoins since the day I am using it, so for me its very safe.

[Laosai]

Depends on what you call safe.

If you want to say "are my btc safe?" then yes they are. It's impossible to hack the coins, not only not profitable but also impossible. Nevertheless if your question is "is bitcoin a safe way to store value" then... Well IMO I'd say yes, but it still has some risks and failure possibilities.

Agreed, if your bitcoins are in your wallet then they are safe for sure  as it is not that easy for any hacker to steal your bitcoins, and everyone is taking good care of their bitcoins, so I think it is very safe.

I store all my bitcoin in my home computer wallets, not the online web wallet. I think it is much safer.

[XinXan]

Bitcoin is one of the safest payment methods there is on the planet.

Also the wallets are very secured look at the blockchain 2 way verification needed.

I think its the easiest and safest way to hold money and to pay.

not for now dude. bitcoin still many improve to be number 1 payment method

Yeah as a payment method it needs an improvement, but for an individual I think bitcoin is very safe as you have control on your money, without the involvement of banks, and transactions are easy and safe.

What are you saying? That banks aren't safe? I have made hundreds of transactions through my bank and never had any problem, however if you make a bitcoin transaction and there is a problem, there is not much you can do because all the transactions are irreversible.

[sishendaoye]

The bitcoin is in my opinion the safest way to pay your bills or something, its easy,fast and secured. Its also that the wallets are secured good, as an example with the 2 way verification of the blockchain, the only thing you need so be 100% secured is multiple wallets.

[ctlaltdefeat]

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 safe,for a while. i just suggest you for not put all your assets in bicoin,itss too risky,you able to lost all your asset,but you also have a chance to double your assets

[ThunderThomas]

Well its how you look at it for sure, the bitcoin itself is very safe to use, if you use multiple wallets of course. But if you mean safe by  the price its not the price of the bitcoin is very unstable and also unpredictable.

[betohell]

It's been safe for many years now, so yes. There's no worry.

yeah. after 2009.
bitcoin prices up and down, but it will not make bitcoin die

i think op talk about storing value, and my guess he is trying to store fiat money to bitcoin due bitcoin is not taxable.
and questioning about security of stored all his asset in bitcoin if government want to freeze his money in bitcoin.
my answer are government can't touch you unless they have a written proof about your bitcoin purchasing proccess. so basically it's safe at all?

[goinmerry]

The problem is the question is not really specific. What kind of safety do you want? Safe for being anonymous? Safe to buy and get profit? Or is  your money safe like it was in a vault in a bank. If that is the case you have your own bank here. Risk is all in your hands

[Mr. Big]

I store all my bitcoin in my home computer wallets, not the online web wallet. I think it is much safer.

That would be safe.. specially if the computer itself is clean and never been infected, so no need to worry about coins that you store there.. bitcoin is safe when wallet is not always connected to internet.. 

[HarryKPeters]

The bitcoin it self is very safe for sure, but if you look at online wallets is less much safe this is because online wallets can be hacked.
You can create a paper wallet or use a wallet from the blockchain and make sure you will use multiple wallets.

Online wallets or exchanges of bitcoin is not very safe. Somebody in the service can steal the coins from you.

Well the principle is simple. If you don't have your private keys, you own nothing!

[abhinivesh]

Bitcoin is not 100% secure..
You know yourself that bitcoin prices are very volatile,
may in some time you decrease the value of your money quickly.

Yeah, vulnerable to hacker attacks..

Yes it is not 100% sure but same with other online money that you store in your different storing website accounts. Internet is very highly risky because many people now are getting more intelligent on how to hack different websites. Even your vault in a vault with a lock in your house is not safe at all. Where is the safest place now? None.

[dothebeats]

Bitcoin in itself is safe. What makes it insecure is the way the user holds it and uses it. The protocol can be attacked in some ways (just like that annoying malleability attack) but on wallets, I think it's the user's fault and not bitcoin.
