Well being new in the bitcoin business, I store them online with the fear of having them on my device which can crash anytime.

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Make a backup, start to get afraid of goxing. If you store coins online chances are high you dont actually own them, but just have a promise from a stranger. |
Im not really here, its just your imagination.

I do store my coins into a paper wallet and the only way to manage that wallet is my android phone. And i know no one is trying to steel my coins
it is possible that if someone steals your phone and instantly take your coins. and I think the paper wallet is not suitable for daily transactions, very complicated |

Even though I feel that security is more important than convenience, I still find myself sticking to convenience more.  I use an online wallet provider, easy and fast to use. Does anyone use an offline wallet for storing purposes, and do anyone suggest using that? I place my trust in the online wallet provider, so I hope nothing goes wrong. :/ I do not own more than a bitcoin, so I guess it is still 'safe'.. |

I store my bitcoins in wallets, so it can not be stolen at once.
I think its the best option you can take to use more wallets than one.

When I see the amount is big I try to keep the in a offline wallet, when I see the amount may be needed for quick spendings then I choose online wallets like blockchain, etc.

I store my bitcoins on a wallet.
I have multiple wallets for the security of my own.
I don't want to lose everything at once.

I keep my Bitcoins on my own PC. I do that because I think it is in fact the safest.
I think it is not as reliable as I do it online. That I trust not so much clear.

Use more than one wallet, and if you have a large sum of bitcoins its better that you save them on a cold wallet, don't trust on others security. Blockchain.info wallets had been hacked before. |

You just need to use multiple wallets that's the trick.

Well,there are many ways in which we can safeguard our bitcoins.I feel it's advisable for any one to have online wallets such as blockchain and coinbase accounts in case of not that larger amounts. But using paper wallet is safe for larger amounts, anyway.

Most of them are online on an exchanged and used for trading.
The coins that are not used are safely in my wallet.

I store most of my Bitcoin in my trezor wallet, and then I also keep some in my coinbase wallet.
