Should I just write it on a piece of paper? What do you guys use?
depends on the crypto you want to store, but https://jaxx.io/ is user friendly & you have full control on your private keys, https://www.myetherwallet.com/ also if you are looking for a hardware storage, I suggest you the Nano S https://www.ledgerwallet.com/Regards.

If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.

Myetherwallet and ledger are your choice. Safe and simple - what else do you need from a wallet?

I use blockchain wallet for store bitcoin and myetherwallet ( MEW ) for ethereum . But using online wallets for store coins is not safe anyway. Hardware wallets are very good option if you think about security

Blackchain.info I did make one for myself because it was included on the wallet list that most preferable bitcoin wallet.
and you can can make transaction anyone in the world not some wallet in my country that is limited to bitcoin (no other kind of crypto) and our fiat only..

A safe web wallet for example uses a secure socket connection which means https in the url bar and allows you to control the private keys or own these or export to another wallet.

Personally I'm thinking to store all my wallets on a metallic plate (QR code) and copies on plastified paper. I want to store the first in a safe-deposit box in my bank insured for 30.000 € - even if the value of my wallets in theory could be greater - and the latter in a secret and inaccessible place that even CIA can't find As if it isn't enough I'm going to use my personal "system" for the letters and numbers wrote on the paper. Frankly I don't understand why people don't use safe-deposit box. For less than 30/50€ per year you can keep your box in the vault of a bank. 1 key is for you 1 key is for the guy with a gun that lives in the vault. Evey time you enter you have to sign the attendance register. If your box is stolen or if the bank cannot find it (e.g. earthquake, meteors etc.) the insurance company have to pay out 10-30k (or even more) immediately with real money even if your box was empty. Way better than an USB device in my opinion. p.s. Yes, I am a bit paranoid

As the name implies, you record the public key (bitcoin address) and private key on a piece of paper. You can send the bitcoins you get from each bitcoin client to the bitcoin address generated by the paper wallet. P2pbucks provides this service. However, please note that the address and the private key on the paper wallet are public, which increases the chances that the bitcoins will be stolen, so you must protect your paper wallet files!

A hardware wallet is the most secure. Regarding the recovery key for the hardware wallet, you can encrypt and store it on a reputed cloud storage.

Bitrex, etherdelta and binance are now widely used for trading purposes. I see in this list also bitrex most choosy wallet among the forum member. I also use freewallet, it's a very trustful one. Whatever wallet you chosee, you have to choose the best coin on daily basis to invest that is enough and make sure all passwords are safe enough and better use clean e-mail to register so that noone try to get your wallet info through it.
