make multiple copies, split them up so the whole 24 word phrase in incomplete and store them preferably in a safe deposit box, cold laminated so it is waterproof and If you want to go even further place in a tamper proof bag, seal, splash glitter nail varnish on the bag and take a picture on a non digital camera so you can see if the bag has been tampered with. We are going to FBI levels of security here though haha

I wrote it down somewhere I know that I am the only one that can get to it and in a way that I know that i am the only one that can understand it. i also have a backup of it in a safe in case I lose the one which I wrote down.

There is such option - to write words not in English, but in some other language. And write, for example not "bird", and "pet with two wings, living in birdhouse."

This is a very important question and I believe people are thinking about this issue.
If you use some sort of a  cryptic code to convert your seed into some random letters and number then you could save that as a email. You can keep the encryption key with you. Also if you are writing it in a piece of paper, keep it in several locations in your home/apartment as well as keep a copy in a safe box, your storage unit (if you have one). If you think and is creative you might come across many innovative methods to get this done successfully.

I store it on print and a safe. It's hard to keep the seed phrase on a computer since all computers are already prone to hacks, whether that be Mac or Linux, specially Windows. Sometimes I convert the phrase into a hash with a specific algorithm and decrypt it with a personal word of my own. A good tattoo of the QR code somewhere on your body would be okay too.

If we are talking about bitcoin, you can make a private key stored by the phrase BIP38. Thus it is possible to make several copies of a private key, to keep it in the most different places, but in the head to keep 1 word - BIP38. Knowing this phrase, you can decrypt the private key and gain access. If we are talking about other cryptocurrencies, you can save private keys in several places and several copies. Then you don't have to tell anyone. Individually, they won't mean anything. Even if you travel a lot - long-term storage will not be affected

It's common thing to see people storing their seed in a place where it could be easily noticed. I wouldn't advise anyone to put their seed in bank's vault. Why would you give them responsibility of keeping your money safe again. You can keep your seed anywhere as long as you somehow encrypt it. Using a passphrase (25th word) is important but it won't be enough to stop someone who knows that you own a lot of bitcoins.

I still like to think my memory is reliable. Someone mentioned forgetting it within days, but I have known mine for the past 7 months ... it is not that hard. Of course there is a possibility in many years I will have forgotten it, so I do keep it written down and spread throughout the house (might actually use the dictionary one though). I do like the idea of the safe deposit box as an extra security measure. Had never heard of cryptosteel ... sounds interesting (though I prefer to have multiple wallets, and it might become expensive with that).

It's regular thing to see individuals putting away their seed in a place where it could be effortlessly taken note. I wouldn't encourage anybody to put their seed in bank's vault. For what reason would you give them duty of protecting your cash once more. You can keep your seed anyplace as long as you some way or another scramble it. Utilizing a passphrase is critical however it won't be sufficient to stop somebody who realizes that you claim a ton of bitcoins.

i usually stored my mnemonic seed on my notepad in my computer.
so if someone have access to my computer, they may have found it.
dont save it on online storage such as email or could drive. just store at your own and have backup.

I personally keep that in an image , but it's not that simple to know what is it unless you have had some cryptography lessons , because i've had a ton of those .
And it's not in the image as per picture , it's in the code of that image randomly dispersed with the order changing whenever i re-open the image (perks of being a developer ) . I also keep a copy in the safe vault of my parents (even tho they think it's just my papers of identification and diplomas/degrees that i have collected through these years ) .
Keeping more than a copy of your safe phrase is a must especially if the amount is considerably important for you and you never know what can happen to that , so being extra careful won't hurt .

I wrote those important words on a white-collored paper and I stowed it inside of my desk.
Obviously no one knows the location of the paper. Even though they found the paper, I'm sure they do not know the meaning of the words that i wrote there, because I think the 24 words phrase looks like a silly words for common people.

I'm not exactly specifying wherever I unbroken my 24-word seed state but I even have avoided potential risk therefore even on account of common cataclysms it will not influence my seed expression. Indeed, I concur with the method that one need to ne'er create any type of processed duplicate of that seed expression but maintaining enough written by hand reinforcement duplicates is adequate. i'd likewise order putt away such expression reinforcement duplicates in several geologic areas to remain off from any unintentional misfortune.

If you are going to store your seed phrase in a computer file then you better encrypt your hard drive or at least encrypt your file, and do not forget to create a backup just in case your hard drive breaks many people have made the mistake of not having a backup and when their hard drive crashes they lose all their coins forever without the possibility of recovering them.

I put them on paper and put them in the safe. I wrote two copies of them, and then I divided them into four pieces and kept them separately.

I wrote it down in paper (I made two copies), and then kept a copy each in my bank locker and office shelf. Don't have it stored anywhere online. I have only this hard copy prints with me.

maybe you can write the phrase on your microsoft word, and print the details out on a paper.
safe your paper in the safest place like a deposit box. but if you want it simple, just safe it on your computer.

If you are rather lazy to rent safes in banks or bury your cryptosteel somewhere in forest - you just can store you encrypted word file with phrase in RAR file with password. And you can place it on different cloud services. The main thing is not to forget passwords for RAR + Encrypted file
