Hey thanks for your replies. I heard a podcast regarding cold storage and that leads me to believe it's not a trivial topic to digest.

It's kindof funny really, the mix of info saying bitcoin "is easy" vs. "it's a deep topic". But then nothing unusual about that, typical of popular topics on the net these days.

It does therefore warrant caution, and to give myself plenty of time to discern and absorb the correct info from the fire hose stream.

For anyone reading this thread, I thought I'd link to the thread in question: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5194

And I don't know why Vladimir deleted his post.. I haven't gone through the thread.
But I can recommend this channel: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgo7FCCPuylVk4luP3JAgVw/videos
As for cold storage, his "Bitcoin 101: Intro to paper wallets & cold storage" would be a good start.

I'm a btc newbie, trying to find an entry into all this knowledge. I'm a software engineer with decades of experience in many fields. That said I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed on this forum and am looking for some basic help.

In reading the "New to Bitcoin, Start Here!" sticky I clicked on the link for the question "How can I store bitcoins securely?" and wasn't able to find the actual 14 steps of the post's title, only the comments about it. Why is that? I went to the first and last pages but no luck. What am I missing, why is that so confusing? Did Vladimir create a "red herring" title to frustrate newbies like me?
Personally have never looked at that post, and wont now Tongue

Just check the BTC wiki for this kind of info;
