Bitcoin Storage [The Question Asked 1000 TImes]

[Knocks]

Hi guisez

I know this question has been asked 1000 times but I never seem to see an option suitable for me...

I have 1 laptop and want to store a good amount of Bitcoin, how can I do this safely without worrying about then getting stolen / lost.
 
I have 2 brand new USB drives to store back ups of anything needed

So wizards, enlighten me?

A good start would be to explain why all the options you have read about are not suitable?

Don't do digital backups. It is hard to verify they are still good. Consider wirting/printing the relevant data.

Don't keep too much on a machine that is regularly connected to the internet.

Don't make the restore process too complicated. It is more likely that you forget how to restore a backup than it is for your coins to be stolen.

I could be biased, but I believe in my product... I'd say the Bitcoin Firesafe is the most secure offline storage method available.

I tried paper wallets but just didn't get confident. I'm moving to offline armory.
