Hello guys!

I wanna hear your opinions about that.
Where do you keep your private keys? In a safe? In your pocket? In your mind??

My private keys are just in the drawer as if they were worth nothing lol

I was thinking about buying a safe, but I think that big, so hard to hide, and just to store one piece of paper?

Give me ideas please =D

It is important to secure a lot of soft and hard copy of it, is your strategy how you will manage it.

it is very risky not to keep records of your Data as private keys for wallets or IDs and passwords for various platforms, Exchange log in data and Security Answers.
Never take anything as granted and think you will remember that. Remember, the loss can be massive if you ever happen to forget your secret keys etc.

The safest way, in my opinion is that, to save your data into your google drive. It is safer than any other way.
YOU can access your data any time and anywhere you go. Or any device you use, it is always easy to access your data.

USB stick with hardware encryption. Doesn't have to be military grade so the cheaper ones are sufficient, unless you have a sticker on it saying bitcoin keys! If by chance it get's found someone will simply format it for re-use rather than try to hack it.

Hahaha Hi guys let me put it this way keep your private key, print it out in a paper laminate it and keep it where you keep your school Results i think this is the safest place first.

Flash drive save them on a flash drive notepad file and make sure you secure and lock the notepad file with password and also secure and lock the flash drive with password, what i mean by this step is, if one want to access the flash it will ask of a password and also the notepad file. in all this make sure you use a strong password.

Answer go with Advice that is how crypto Roll.

I always put Private keys on some PCs I have. Apart from offline storage, I also downloaded some private keys on online storage so that when I needed, private keys were always there and easy to find. I have never used Hardware wallet like Nano Ledger and Trezor, but I plan to have it this year. Maybe you can try to buy Wallet Hardware if your digital assets are Many.

actually it is not that hard to find where you will safe it. you just need some place with high security, water resist, fire resist, and other resist.
it could be a deposit box. store your private key or other important information to a drive, and put into the box. your information will be safe,
flood, fire, or earthquake cannot destroy your information. nice.

I save it in various places, like, print it on paper, flashdisk, hp memory, and I keep it in place, which only me who knows its place. so if one of the missing ones still exists in another app, I think, it will make my private key more secure.

Turn it into text files and put it in your personal computer.
You can also do it in creative ways like tape the paper in some figurines bottom, or hide your thumb drive in a flower pot. Be creative so your private keys are hidden in the place you only know.

Hi! I store the keys in encrypted form and use the program "KeePass Password Safe". It's convenient.  And this is the safest way to store your keys

All my Private keys are printed out and laminated (making them waterproof/resistant). I think keep one copy in a safe in my home and a second copy in a safety deposit box (in case a meteor hits my house)

May seem like overkill but i know my keys are safe. That redundancy is important.

I dont trust me keys online… even encrypted or in a secure cloud. im paranoid like that .

I am sure so many people have told this to you but the best place are the cold wallets and day by day they have more and more security updates where you track your coins and securty

It is not safe to say this on a public forum, but i think that we all have our keys on safe places, i have a hardware wallet and i think that they can not be safer in any other place.
I have two copies on two different places.

my technique to keep my private keys safe and can easily found is making a lot of copies of my private key and storing them in flash drives, mobile phone and written in paper and stored in safe because i am a forgetful person i always forget things that i left that's why i always use sticky notes write all the stuff what should i do.

The great place for keeping passwords and keys is in your devices, your own devices.
Never use any other than your devices such as others pc, phone, or cloud to safe your file that contained your passwords and keys.

There are thousands of portable devices where you can store your private keys very safe and confidential and when it comes to bitcoin you need to be a little more careful because in case if bitcoin wallets the only access to your wallet is your private keys and once it has been stolen then it could never be recovered so be little more careful with your private keys. You can simply store it in any portable devices such as hard drive or pen drives or to be more precise otg pen drives which are best to store and easy to carry device.
