Most of my Bitcoin is stored in my trezor wallet. I also keep a small amount of Bitcoin in my coinbase wallet.
Indeed I store my Bitcoins too at an online wallet. I find it so good and it is easy to work, so why not. Some people dont trust the online wallets, because they say they can be hacked. But it is very secure I think. No, online wallets aren't as secure as users think. Look about on google or on bitcointalk forum. You will see that blockchain.info was hacked more than one time. Also a problem with online wallets is that most people use simple passwords and don't use 2 factor autentification. Online wallets are easy and can be a good solution for small amounts to pay your daily shoppings, but not to store your savings. |

Indeed. online wallet. easier and more flexible in the use of the transaction. but the possible loss of a third party is always there. large sites such as Mtgox could be a scam |

Even though they are managed by big companies. Offcourse we have to wait and see. But nobody wants to be goxed. |

If an online wallet has proved to be reliable in time, then you could pretty much trust it. |

I place whatever I don't use on an offline wallet, I think that's the safest way to keep your coins safe.
Whatever I do use, I have a small amount on an online wallet.

The transaction fee is also very cheap and normal banks dont like it because it is so very cheap.

I use offline wallet on protected USB stick with linux OS.
Do you make backups of that stick? I recently had to replace a 3 year old good-brand stick, because it simply stopped working. This stick contained movies, if it was bitcoin it could have been an expensive loss. |

You can store all your bitcoins in an online wallet such as yobit or coinbase and they are both very resourceful
why do you stored your bitcoin on your coinbase wallet or yobit? i mean it's prety risk due to the controll and access of the private key, yeah we dont have a ultimate controll of our private key, i prefer using coinbase and some kind of exchanger like that just for spendable amount, to be honest i would never stored all of my bitcoin there, just saying |

I store my bitcoin in a wallet, this is the safest way of course, I also use multiple wallets to be more secured and not get a target of hackers.
If you really want to be secured use a paper wallet or a cold storage so you cannot get hacked by someone in most cases.
