Where to store your keys?

[LUCKMCFLY]

There's no need to prepare an anti-nuclear safe, and the amount you say is too much. However, if indeed I have as much Bitcoin as you say. In the event of a nuclear attack, I'm also not sure if I'll still be able to see my Bitcoins. Because nuclear power can make humans die in an instant. Try to think realistically, these keywords are very easy for us to save in our personal software or Gmail. And we can also remember it by memorizing keywords.

Well, to think of a nuclear explosion would be something very exaggerated, but it is unfortunately possible, more so now when it comes to war like the one that is happening in Russia and Ukraine, which in a moment will result in world war if things go wrong. of control.

Thinking about it, sometimes I see that saving the keys in Gmail is like leaving it very much in the cloud or with easy access for a hacker, unless you have a SHA-256 gmail key and then when you enter it you have it in a file with double encryption , Which to do double encryption is already something exaggerated, I think that although it sounds very trivial, and very banal on paper it is one of the safest ways there is.

Crypto investors are turning to Military grade vaults to safeguard their Keys. While some prefer to know the Keys by heart, some have their crypto stash in physical dedicated crypto wallets like Trezor and pay big money to have them stored in Nuclear sheltered safe vaults. Take for instance Swiss Crypto Vault who offers Nuclear sheltered vaults to crypto investors. if you had 2000 bitcoins what options would you pick?

One can opt to save the keys on a personal computer wallet. The keys will be retrieved only by using a password.
Second, one can also prefer to print the keys on paper and keeping them in a bank locker.

It's probably too much to hide your seeds in an anti-nuclear vault, I don't have many bitcoins but enough to keep them in a trezor and hidden in my private room, so I don't deserve to have a safe and keep it in a place that no one else knows.

you are right, but the matter is the place that can be okay. And depending how scure is your computer, if is computer everyone touches is not good to store or save your private keys in your computer. People being recommending saving offline as you said about paper storage of private key, but only disadvantages for paper storage of keys is house burnt, if mistakenly house burn by electrical installation or appliances, your private keys cant be retrieved

Some opt to safe it in USB, on their laptops locking it with more keys which I think is a good idea but as everything you have the risk of being robbed or erase the data by mistake.

I always like to keep the private key of my wallet safe. This is very important. I have written these in my personal diary. I think, that is safe.

[CNMOH]

If you have multiple keys my advice is to keep more copies in different places. Just have in mind that these are safe places where only you can reach them. Don't only keep them in digital form, put them in the paper too but when it comes to storage of them develope something that will help you memorise where are they stored but in a matter that will not help others to reveal it.

[jahepahit]

I will save in different places and first is that I will memorise the keys by all means, I will save on my device in a coded way that only me will remember and then memorise the hints for it. These ways am cool. Going for the Swiss fault is my last option.

I'm probably more of a supporter of old-school methods, because in my case I trust my private keys only to my paper notebook. I don't use any other media anymore, and I'm very suspicious of any electronic media that can help save passwords or any other sensitive information like private keys. For me, my notebook, locked in a drawer, is a fairly reliable tool.

I think having a physical copy of your keys is your safest bet to preserve your crypto for generations. Without any digital trace, how would hackers be able to successfully steal your crypto in the first place? Only a burglar will be able to "steal" your crypto if he knows the location of your keys stored in a physical medium. The best practice to help protect your crypto is to exercise discretion. By making a physical copy of your keys and storing them in a discreet location, no one will ever find it.

There are many ways to store your keys securely limited to your own imagination. As long as you follow the necessary security precautions, your crypto will last a lifetime. Just my opinion

[haasanjui]

You should store your keys in notebook in mobile. But it can be hacked and stole so make your keys save in personal dairy then it can be safe from hackers.

actually all storage will always experience things that will conflict and will not be able to guarantee properly.
The best security is obviously being able to memorize and store it in your own mind, but there will be problems if you experience senility due to illness, it is clear what will be given to your successor cannot be done and will disappear with the circumstances experienced.

there will always be a good side and a bad side that will happen with whatever storage will be done, because no storage that will really be able to guarantee it will be safe, if always in contact with other people.
Good storage is clear that only relate to the closest people because it will be a link that can be immediately given when the owner has a problem.
so hardware like tresor, nano s, keepkey etc is the best option in my opinion.

[dlightag]

Bitcoin is an digital asset, which you have said it all by mention military ground, which any mistake private get compromised, it has been automatically lost by the next person that has the access to the asset. therefore, i prefer saved my private key on Note pad and has a duplicate on flash drive as back up.

There is no universal way to store keys. Any of the methods is good only for solving their own problems. Keeping information about seeds-pharses in your mind also has a number of advantages and disadvantages.

This method is good because you have access to the "data" alone. So far there is no way around this other than using the "5$ wrench method". Also, the advantage will be quick access to keys due to the constant "carrying" with you and the ability to freely transport across any borders to anywhere in the world. The disadvantage may be that "memory" can bring surprises, in the form of loss of part of the information due to age-related changes or the influence of the "5th wrench" due to trauma, followed by loss of data. That is, this information carrier is very fragile and not reliable.

Storing the "seed phrases" in your mind is not recommended, since there's the risk of losing access to your coins if you forget the seed. This is no different than a "brain wallet", if you ask me. If you really want to be safe, then you'll have no other option but to make several copies of your keys and store them in a discreet place. Redundancy and secrecy are the keys to preserving your crypto for the long term. If you do it right, your descendants will be able to access your Bitcoin without difficulties. There are many ways to store sensitive crypto information limited to your own imagination. As long as you follow the necessary security precautions, you'll have nothing to worry about.

If you think it is the safest place then keep it there. Because I think the one who knows the safest place is ourselves. Maybe other people's input or experience can be a reference for us to save something important, in this case the wallet's private key. But then again the one who knows the safest place is ourselves. Because if we follow what other people do sometimes we forget where to save it because we are not used to it.

As long as you keep it wherever you feel safe and no one can steal it from you, but storing the private key on a computer or phone that is frequently connected to the internet is not recommended. It is very risky that someone borrows your computer or your computer can be attacked by hackers at any time and steal the private key. Store it offline and where you feel safe.

[Rockstarguy]

From my own personal experience to me storing online is not the best to me. The first wallet I was using I store the seed Phrase in one of email so  that I can easily get it at anytime but the email got hacked and I couldn't recover it again. If a seed phrase is stored in online or in any device, it should also be store in a notebook that is safe where no eyes can find it. Information that is written in a book last longer and always safe.

If you stored on personal computer and get spoilt beyond repair. Which ways will you get your private keys back? Those personal computer storage of private key is not good to save keys. Save your keys to the place you have without the helps of electricity power supply to turn your system on before reaching your private key. Writing it out and save offline is the best way of saving private keys without much stress and is going to be good security again. Because if somebody touches it were you kept it you will know
