What are the measures to keep your private key safe and in memory ? Are there any alternatives to retrieve the key back ?
Always take care of your private key, have a notepad to place and keep it and also have a copy in your flash drive, don't show or give it to anyone, be alert.

Once the private keys forgot or being misplaced, all your crypto earnings there will be useless sinced there is no chance to recover it. So it is very recommended to put this in a safe place that can be easily to remember.
when you lose your password, private key, backup wallet, then everything will be lost. I've experienced it when I use blockchain I lost it all and I can not do recover, I started to learn to be careful at the moment, do a backup wallet, keep a private key in a safe place, and share your coin in many place wallet or other exchange

Trusting your memory is very good, but not at this point, cause things written as your private key (letters, numbers upper and lower cases) can be confusing sometimes. The best thing to do, is, print it on a hard copy and store it in a place where only you can have access to. Making space for backup is very vital to avoid loss of money due to carelessness.

your coin will be safe in that wallet forever, and nobody can't access your wallet, because as we know that private key combination is very complicated, so I think that its immposible to breach your wallet without a private key

4 flash drives all backed up.  Paper wallets printed and placed around in spots only you know about.  Keep those hard drives away from computer connected to the internet and be careful the sites you visit.  A bunch of little changes and safety measures go a long way.

A big mistake if someone can forget the key bitcoin wallet they have, because if it happens then we will not be able to make transactions on the bitcoin we have, and to this day there is no way to recover or retrieve lost keys. For that in storing the key bitcoin wallet that we have, should be done well and correctly so as not lost and stolen by others, which in turn causes us to lose the bitcoin we have. For that use a special file in your computer in order to save the key, and save it in the flash that you think is safe so you have a copy if the file is problematic or your computer has a problem that causes all data lost.

Do not store your Private Key on your computer, it's safer to keep your Wallet in paper or offline notes.
It is recommended to store not only 1 copy but at least 2 copies of your private key or your recovery code in two different places. If lost, you can still access private key or your recovery code.

Are there any alternatives to retrieve the key back ?
If you lose it, then regret you forever! it will still be lost if there's no backup.

Well...I think that the end of it.
If you should forget the key to your bitcoin wallet, there is no way you could recover it as there is no key recovery yet for now, so the btc will just be lying there aimlessly

Keep a paper wallet with you

Back up the keys in notepad

If needed write those somewhere you will never forget

Or you can use a hardware wallet also

After then also you will loose your wallet then its ended forget and give a new start.

If this occurrence with we we we can be be an to hơn the Thiên Chúa for the manual and easy easily to it can be read the key. Really such this is the weak point of the system is not set the primary check.

In no way that you could retrieve your keys. Better to keep it safe at all times. The only way is making a back up maybe printing it and keeping the paper safe and make other back ups in yourc computer.

You have to treat your keys very seriously, keep in a very safe place.. You could print or write down and make sure only you can access it. Because if your keys get lost or ht in the wrong hands, there's no way to get back. And you lose everything too.

I created a notepad and then saved the private key into it. After that convert to winrar and give password. After all finished copying it in some places on the computer, drive, and in my email.

I know some people who lose their private key and never recover it. Because they don't make a copy of their private key. So you need to create it right now. Write it on the piece of paper and put it in the book.

If someone lost their private key, then unfortunately the coin will be stay at the wallet forever.
Unless they still have the wallet file, it can be bruteforce by some program to obtain the password i guess.

Well there are many bitcoin wallet but if the bitcoin wallet they has a private key if they forgot,it will never be recovered again.So they must look for a bitcoin wallet that is not hassle if you forgot your password like Coins.ph bitcoin wallet.If you forgot your password they will just ask for your link email and then they will send the temporary password to your email then you can open your wallet again.

You can print your private key and keep it safely and secured. You can also save it through notes on your phone or somewhere you know that it will be safe. Just make sure that your private keys will not know by anyone except you.

Yes. There is alternative ways to retrieve the keys to your wallet. You just need to contact your provider of your wallet, you just need to let them know what happened to your account. Message them thru email or personal message, it is the best way to do if you lost, forgot, accidentally deleted your keys they will help you. But next time make sure to back up your keys, store them on your laptop or write down it so you will avoid to encounter this kind of problem again.

In my view, to keep your private key safe is by print it out on a piece of paper the put it in a safe place. Or You can put it in a flashdisk then put it in a safe place. As far as I know that there is no way to retrieve the key back. so when you loss it, it means you loss your bitcoin.
