There is a new project that would be taking care of this problem, it is the project's signature that I am presently wearing, they aim to create a cold vault where you can store all your private keys and even be able to recover the. In the event of a loss.
I do not think that the storage of the key causes someone problems, you can just save the private key on a flash drive and store there, without connecting the flash drive to the Internet , I think it is worth installing a phishing plugin that will protect you from this as usually hacked phishing

The best way is not to get oneself compromised.
Never save your private key on your mobile phone just as mobile could easily be compromised. Another thing is thatn if the private keys is been saved on the mobile device, one might mistakenly enter a phishing site which will automatically stole all the private and seeds saved on the device.

Safety is paramount! It would be a pity to lose accumulated coins! Therefore, I don’t especially hold anything and drain as quickly as possible!

I don't think one needs to be told how to deal with his or her private key, no matter how careless you are you need to be more careful about your private in order not lose all you have earned or bought. Never believe in any airdrop who requires for private key or claiming to earn you big money which is what attracted people more.

Private keys are like passwords to your bank accounts. It make sense not to reveal private keys to anyone. There are lots of scams around to scam users from their private keys. Some examples are airdrop, claiming fork coin and etc.

Why would you give your data to anyone? Your wallet is only yours. I would store all my personal data on a separate removable drive.

I agree with you, the main thing that beginners should understand, your private key to the wallet you should keep in a safe place and do not tell anyone. If you are asked to provide a private key, then it's scammers. For greater security, I advise you to also buy a hardware wallet.

I advise people not to regularly use private key to access their wallet. Instead use applications that support crypto storage today. You only need to log in once and can use it until you want to logout from that wallet

The best way to keep your private key safe is to right it down in some note, offline. Or just try to learn by heart.

Safety of private keys it is your own decision. You have to take care about that. Just learn a bit more about preventive measures and level up security of your computer. Also always use Metamask!

I don't trust to the different electronic keystores like ledger, because there are a lot of cases when this wallets was sold with a special programme like keylogger which stole the key. I prefer to write my private keys on the paper.

The most important way to protect the wallet is to not share the privet key. I recently wanted a privet key with the excuse of distributing a lot of scam project awards. Nobody should get that. airdrop or bounty project privet key does not want. Those who want Privet key are malicious fraudsters. Don't give anyone a privet key.

Keeping your private safe is the best way to protect your wallet,  under no circumstances should you disclose your private key to another  you can also go the extra mile by saving your private key offline

in this case I think the best way is for those of you who have to secure the file in a safe place from the things that make it worse and when you want to access your wallet then you must be careful

Well your wallet is where you keep your coin safe and it always important to protect it
 One of the best way is to protect your private key never give it out to any one even if it's your mentor that is very important
 This is for new guys like me

More like crypto 101. Your Passphrase, mnemonics and private keys are all yours and on no account should you also give it to anyone not even closed friends. Learn this and be safe from a future hack

I now have hardware wallet ledger nano s for more than 1 year, i never had problem with it. I think is more safe and secure to have a hardware wallet, because even on linux i see some kind of viruses.

Just use hard ware wallet to keep all of your crypto safe.
But if you couldn't afford it then make sure that you would secure it in any flash drive a new one would do to know that it is free from virus or any threat.

private key really shouldn't be anyone else who knows it so we really have to take care of our private key very carefully but still that does not guarantee that our wallet will not be hacked because if the computer is hacked then our data can be retrieved so that in addition to securing the key Personally we also have to pay attention in choosing a wallet.

and in my opinion the hardware wallet is the safest.
