maybe my way is equal to others To secure my personal data such as mnemonic phrases, login username and password, 2fa secret code, I always create google documents. And I compressed it through winrar with a strong password and saved it to my usd flash drive. That's how I securely secure my personal data. I hope this will help you

I would like to trusth mnemonic phrases because it's really convenient to be able to keep your entire Bitcoin wealth in your head by memorizing 12 words, but im still too paranoid to move my cold storage into an Electrum wallet, even after taking all reasonable security measures like doing it in an airgapped computer and so on.

My main worry is key derivation. Someone with the right info could cause wreck you due possible derivation of the seed. Anyone knows what are the exploitable attacks and dangers of mnemonic phrases vs just keeping your good ol wallet.dat in an airgapped computer?

I no longer use wallets that have backup mnemonic phrases but I think it is very easy to use this type of backup to be able to store your personal password in your wallet and to be able to access it anywhere in the world as you like just by remembering a 12/24 word sentence you have no risk in trusting the personal password of your wallet because you knowing the derivation path and your seed you will easily have access to your wallet because the seed is the entropy in human readable form for easy memorization is much easier to memorize an order of words (binary representation) than the seed in hexadecimal format.

But I prefer to save in the wallet.dat than the bitcoin core wallet because it seems more convenient.

I'm thinking about buying myself Cryptosteel. This is the original indestructible backup tool for optimal offline storage of cryptocurrency wallet recovery seeds (24 words), private keys and passwords.

I think a lot of you are forgetting something very important. What will you do if you hit your head or die? Have you written clear instructions on what this random garble of words is so that your surviving relatives have some sort of clue how to access your bitcoin? It's not enough to just store you seed phrase, you also need to leave instructions on where it is stored and let people know about how much it is worth. I know if I got hit by a bus tomorrow, a bunch of people would be able to follow my instructions and get that bitcoin out.
