Actually my coins are kept in an on-line wallet but I don't put them in one wallet just in case it get hacked I will not lost everything but for my suggestion better have your offline wallet that's the best way to keep them safe, investing in altcoins is also  good provided that you will not put everything on it, you better divide your coins and put them in different investment.

I have all my coins in on an online trading site (paxful) (low volume)

I plan on making a large investment very soon, and want to safely store all of my coins
I.E I basically want to drop a couple thousand, and keep them in the safest possible way, where I can revisit them in 5-10 years or so and reap the benefits, or cry about the loss.

What is the best way to do this, and what's the best way of ensuring a backup?

How do you currently store your coins

thanks in advance for any inputs

I am keeping my Bitcoins in coinomi wallet and I also invested small ammount into altcoins just in case. All my earnings will be transfered into it since it has private keys for my funds safety. I just hold it until the time I need it most. Bitcoin is my only source of income that's why it is advisable for me to hold for it to have bigger profit. Some other guys here withdraw all their Bitcoins right away just to buy things like gadgets, online game loads, cellular loads, food, personal needs et cetera. But yeah it really depends on how we keep our Bitcoins either we put it in paper wallets, hardware wallets, online wallets or in an offline wallets.

Use offline wallet and never share your bitcoin private key is the best way i think but for online wallet i recomend you to use blockchain and don't use exchanger wallet

I keep mine in blockchain.info and send some to a reputable exchanger in case I want to trade. I advice everyone to make sure you do not access your wallet with people computer or public computer centre and also have i very strong password and authenticator.

Electrum wallet the best so far. Its easy to use and friendly and you can adjust the fees. I also have a account on an exchange just in case I want to convert my bitcoin to fiat. Bitcoin core is also good place to sit your bitcoin but it will take some time to sync, that's why I prefer Electrum because its lightweight and you can keep your seeds and private keys.

I kept my bitcoins at online wallet that I have, but temporarily within a week and I will cash out after. When I have the cash fiat in hand I would love to store it in my saving account at the bank for important and emergency purposes and the remaining btc balance, I’ve use it for loading my mobile phone number for consumption
What I do to keep my bitcoin with I keep letting or collect bitcoin I have fixed in the online wallet that I have IE blockchain and don't forget to always use the key to open it. and I will continue to collect it until I need it I will take it to meet my personal needs. and after the bitcoin accumulated then I will continue to check or monitor the integrity and security of my online wallet to avoid some of the problems commonly occur.  Smiley

Right now I am using offline wallet to keep my bitcoin safe. Since there is a BTC-e case I no longer trust the exchanger. It's better if you want to send a bitcoin to an exchanger instead of having to save it there

I save my bitcoin on my wallet online. Because I think it's easier I take it anywhere. If i need money and i forgot not to bring money .. maybe the solution is bitcoin .. just turn it into fiat money. But you should keep your wallet safe .. to avoid virus or hacker .. complete with 2fa code to login to your account

I mostly keep my Bitcoin in my online wallet so that I can handle and manage my Bitcoin anywhere and anytime. Hence, if you want to invest a big amount of money make sure you have a background and information about who are the people that involve in your investment.

Basically i don't like to squander something i have and act carelessly to do something. I'm always keep my Bitcoin is full of controls and always look at the estimated risk that will be experienced. And i'm always try to see a safer side on keeping my Bitcoins.

I keep my BTC in Electrum too but I am thinking of running a full node (Bitcoin Core) recently because I do want to contribute in any ways instead of just being an investor but still quite hesitant. That's because there seems to be 2 camps which is quite inconclusive that whether a non-miner full node could actually help BTC in general or not.

i keep my bitcoins in JAXX  Wink People dont like JAXX and dont think its secure enough but it does the job for me

i am using jaxx too for at least 6 month ago until now and I don't have any problem. beside jaxx, I use different wallet like from the exchanges for my trading. I think every wallet is safe so we can use without any worries except we forgot to save our private keys and this will make we are losing our bitcoin.

So far the best thing I think to store your coins which is bitcoin was Multibit hd, or electrum wallet, as long as you had the private key, key words it will never be gone. You can keep it as long as you want it be.

I think it is stupid to store your btc on someone's website, go download the wallet, store it on your computer, turn off the internet connection - and you are 100% safe.

You mean storing up your bitcoins on the Exchange site? If yes, then I could say that it is not that stupid, but it is risky, because there is a lot of scenarios happened which a lot of bitcoins was lost in the exchange site, and the exchange couldn't explained what happened also, I don't know if they really can't or they are just making up some stories so they could cover up what really happened on those bitcoins.
