You can use the hardware wallet to save your wallet. You can also use paper wallets. You do not have to share your password with anyone to save your wallet. Do not keep your laptop open when you.
There are places where these wallets are not easily available and if they are, then they are very costly. problem arises when the value of portfolio is less than or equal to the cost of that wallet. What do you suggest then as the most safe option?
You can use desktop wallets or web wallets but keep their private keys safe. Do not store them in your pc unprotected. Store them and encrypt them and also store the backups as you may never know when you'll need them. After encrypting, you can store them on an email, preferably which you don't use for normal daily purposes. Just my two cents.
I just barely lost my private key. I finally confused and tried my best to find the key. and no results. lucky my wife recorded it in her diary. and finally my private key got me back .if you can save or prin password all the assets we have. to be more secure
yeah, there are a lot of scams now a days too. Few airdrops are now asking to verify our wallet address address before they transfer the coins to the wallet and to verify they are asking for the private keys or signing the wallet on wrong/scam website. So pay attention to these too. Never ever give your wallet private keys to anyone under any circumstances.

A very good guide and great thread. Thank you very much for this detailed information. I usually keep my private keys on my PC in open and never thought much of it. But now, I'm going to encrypt them all. I'm sure this thread will help everyone who is in crypto.

I actually do that mate i wrote also my personal files at my notebook,.because accidentally ny childrwn used to use my smartphones and he accisentally he delet my personal files,so i make a double store into my ohone and the other is in my secretive notes,and rhanks mate for your guides and informative suggestions., 
I'm not a security-expert and there may be even better methods than mine mentioned in the guide - but I'm sure it's still better than nothing.
Most important is keeping the PC free from malware - and the best protection against malware is not your antivirus but your brain.exe - using a Sandbox is also not a bad idea before executing anything on your PC.
Awareness and carefulness can protect users from common threats, but they can't protect even the most experienced users from zero-day vulnerabilities. For example, nowadays almost every site uses Javascript, and hackers can use it for attacking visitors, so you can get hacked by simply visiting a site. A few months ago there was a vulnerability in popular Bitcoin wallet that allowed malicious sites to steal coins from unsecured wallets. Javascript could also be used to execute Spectre and Meltdown exploits. So, for this and some other reasons, people should avoid storing big amounts of coins on their online machines, it's just an unnecessary risk.
This is really well written theared. No matter that myself and many other people here understand the best practices and know how and what to do many fall behind and forget about them. Thus I truly believe that such articles as this one can have good side effect and actually have an affect on people by reminding them what to do and that they must keep some things secure and private. No matter how many times we tell people they simply forget about few things which is why it is good to remind them in this way. This guide is really great with articles linked at the bottom if the reader is interested to learn more about it.
A good point for serious cryptocurrency trader is the use of a separate computer or device for storing all your coins without using it for no other activities
Nice one this helpful to me, now i can know how to manage my address in terms of security aspect
Very detailed and step by step guide for protecting wallet. I will surely follow the way you described. Thanks for sharing. Good Luck.
Thanks man, I was looking for this kind of topic in here. Thankfully you have posted it and did a great job explaining it.
Thanks for the Guide Bro, with this we can minimize the risk of being hacked by others. like other hacker trying hard to get our private key info with this help they will have a hard or almost impossible chance to hack us.
Wow what a great thread,some of the things mentioned here has just not that crossed my knowledge,thank you so much about this mate,I bookmarked this for future reference because i need to learn many about this
Those all are good security practices, but the best and the simplest method is to use cold storage - either hardware wallet or dedicated device that is never connected to the Internet to only sign transactions and then broadcast signed transactions from some other device. This is safer because even if you do everything perfectly with your computer, there's always some some chance of getting attacked with some zero-day vulnerability or just doing a mistake, while isolating your private keys from the Internet is extremely secure, airgap-jumping malware is very rare in the wild.
