I use several external USB drives. I also printed my private key and have it stored in a good place.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

Bitcoin is the online currency and if we want to store we can store it through internet with the help of this facility we can use it every where and we can access our money from everyplace. with bitcoin some people can use it for illegal use as well. but bitcoin can not store like paper money and like other currencies the prices up and down with regularly.

If you only hold a small amount of crypto, keeping it on an exchange website shouldn't be too much of a problem, but as soon as you have a decent amount, put it into a wallet. No-one knows who's going to be hacked next.

Hmmm me i mostly store my bitcoins in online based wallets like coinbase and blockchain because i feel more secured with this online wallets.Also i have some bitcoins stored in my usb drive that is been in kept for me for about almost 3 years already.And i think storing in your usb or pc is better than storing on online wallets because everything in the net is vulnerable

I store my bitcoin in differents wallet. However, In my home country most trusted and safe bitcoin wallet is coins.ph and spreading out your holdings you protect your it by reducing your exposure to any one wallet being compromised.

Hello everyone as the title says ^
Do you store your bitcoins online or on a wallet on your computer, perhaps cold storage?
I stored it in my online wallet then eventually I will cash it out in popular remittances in my country. I want to store it exchange site like hitbtc, cryptopia to allow me to have a bitcoin fork. Is it safe to store my bitcoin in a trading site? I want to earn bitcoin fork in my wallet, is this possible to do that? |

Bitcoin wallets store the private keys that you need to access a bitcoin address and spend your funds. They come in different forms, designed for different types of device. You can even use paper storage to avoid having them on a computer at all. Of course, it is very important to secure and back up your bitcoin wallet.

That's why companies like Luno are founded - not just to make it easy for you to buy, sell, and use Bitcoin, but to keep it safe. We do this by saving your private key.

Yes paper wallets are excellent. One thing I do with paper wallets is I intentionally put code words and numbers that I know are not part of the private key in the beginning and in the end. For example if your dogs name is bingo You can do this: 0gN1b This will throw of anyone that may find your private key.  |

I accept large payments through Electrum and smaller payments through Blockchain. Then I store a larger number of bitcoins in the cold storage and smaller quantities in paper purses.

I store my bitcoins in a wallet i would recommend to use blockchain, coinbase, coins.ph and myetherwallet because those are the best to use blcokchain is very secure for your bitcoins and ethereum and myetherwallet can help you save your tokens and other altcoins. And my favourite wallet is coins.ph because it is very safe wallet for me because if you send a bitcoin to another coins.ph address the fee is free and can cash out, paying bills, buying load and easy to use that's why the coins.ph is my favourite.

May be this is a bold publication here, but i save all my eggs in one baskets, electrum knocked out Linux, i own the seed, even though i lose my password i can yet recover my maintenance as soon as the seed. i don't know how this can be hacked without anyone knowing the seed or password, in view of that far off and wide it hasn't and i have hopes it will remain this showing off.

I always keep my coins in my online wallet. But I have 3 accounts in my wallet, and there is an account that I always use to buy or sell coins. this means that I keep the coins in another purse. I mostly use my Android device. I think that people should use the best antivirus so that its information about the purse is not hacked.

Hi there yellowcat1771! I prefer to make three different wallets and a offline hardware wallet so that in case of hack events happen I have still some bitcoins that could help me to recover. Oppositely, if I ever lost my hardware wallet I have still an online wallet to cover up. But what I like most in online wallet is its ability to transfer more conveniently than hardware wallet. And lastly, I never store my bitcoins in my computer fearing that when the drive goes corrupted the bitcoins come with it.  |

if I personally save all my wallet.dat files like 10 different USB sticks offline. I have done this since I first started Bitcoin. This is the best choice for me. Simply time-consuming updating of each wallet file because I have so much and they need to be stored in all the sticks again. Better to be safe than sorry. After our missing data do not happen
