Hi,
I read somewhere that you can write down your "bitcoin private key" and have all your bitcoins for example in a book.

Does anybody have a nice and easy guide for a noob like me that I can use to keep my 1.9 bitcoins safe? (Hopefully each coin will be worth $10000 in future which gives me $19000 MUHAHAHAHAHA!  Cheesy Cool )

Cheers!
Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Blockchain has the following function:
Goto-->MyWallet-->Import/Export-->Papper Wallet
BOOM! A printable QR code is made which contains your account number and total account currency.
I have no idea how this can be used or if it's even the same with what you mean but it's my 0.000004325 bit coins on the subject.

 I made my own custom paper wallet but that might be too difficult for some.

This video tutorial explains the basics of paper wallet creation pretty well:

Just remember when you keep your BTC on a paper wallet you're trusting the website you used.

Are there more secure ways of making your own address so that nobody could ever have known the private key?
