You have 10 Bitcoin, how do you store them?

[RoboDawg]

Instead of asking how to secure my own Bitcoin.... say I sent you 10 Bitcoin now, how would you store them for a year?

I've currently got my Bitcoin in 4 paper wallets.... generated via BitAddress.org (Offline)

Paper wallet it, in a zip lock baggy and stick in wife's vjayjay - someone would have to knock the cobwebs off of it to get to them

Up to 30 BTC I will store them in an encrypted wallet on my local machine (Multibit)

Over 30 BTC, I would use cold storage with a paper wallet, but I'm not trusting online paper wallet generators. Instead, I'm using Multibit as well, exporting private keys, printing them out and then wiping out the data from my wallet. When re-importing the private keys, I am using an OCR software after scanning the paper (so no QR code involved in my cookbook)

My best and trusted friend that I've known since high school is keeping a copy of keys in case of death of total destruction event.

Unfortunately that's the only thing I don't trust.... BitAddress.org I know they're probably are trusted but I wish there was a way to generate a private key offline without trusting a 3rd party...

A year?  And I won't be spending them at all for the entire year?

Well then, if I won't be spending them, I don't need them on a computer at all.  Therefore, I'd definitely create a secure paper wallet.  I'd probably create 3 copies of the paper wallet and store it in 3 separate geographical locations (to protect from fire, flood, tornado, etc).

The hardest part would be providing a way for you to reclaim the bitcoins if I should die within the next year.  I'd have to make sure that someone else could access at least one fo the secure locations after my death (and would know to do so), but I'd have to make sure that they couldn't access the location while I'm alive.

There is.  There are a few programs written in python in other threads here on bitcointalk.  If you can learn how to read a python program, you can verify that the software isn't doing anything bad, and then run that instead of BitAddress.org.

You can also run Bitcoin-Qt on an offline computer to generate the necessary information for a paper wallet.  If that program can't be trusted to have been properly reviewed by the public, then bitcoin itself doesn't have much value anyhow.

[evansearle42]

store it on pc wallet and make your computer offline..

[sanjoea]

I definetly withdraw it into my bank account i won't store anywhere

[BitcoinBoss]

cold storage and paper wallets for sure. 

[Flashman]

I store them on millions of hard drives world wide... 'coz they're IN the blockchain and no amount of tomfoolery is going to get them out ... in fact if you manage that you've lost them.

My private keys to prove my ownership of them however, I keep offline, various ways, various places.

[Jeezy911]

I actually trust Coinbase with small amounts <5. Anything more Wallet with about 3 USB drives with .dats locked in a safe.
