How safe do you think is storing anything related to your bitcoins, like private keys, wallet seed, back up on email? I think it is pretty bad, if your email gets hacked, which can happen, you're basically screwed. But I was just watching some tutorials on youtube (to send to a friend) and kept clicking the side to view one after the another, and happened to find this on Electrum:
youtu.be/WdVlH9N2oKU?t=112
It is a pretty good tutorial, until the author suggests taking screenshot of the Electrum seed and saving it on your email? I can understand if you encrypt it and then put it as back up on email, though even then it is not considered secure but putting your seed's screenshot there? That sounds like suicide to me.
