When I learn bitcoin I always keep my bitcoin in an online wallet. If I earn already from a bitcoin investment, trading altcoins I keep my remaining bitcoin to online wallet and then I cashout the other btc to fiat for my daily expenses. I just save my remaining bitcoin into an online wallet,not all for security purposes.
yes to me i also use online wallet for saving my bitcoin although the disk top wallet are the best option to be use for saving bitcoin but still online wallet.

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

You just need to put your bitcoin in the online wallet of blockchain official .
My second advice will be for you to not to invest all of your bitcoin at single trading site , my suggestion will be for the many  trading site to make trading more profitable and risk free ( or you can say at low risk)
Use most famous exchange for trading for example bitrex , Poloniex , yobit etc .
Since you can try another wallets like cex.Com c-cex like where the trading is very slow because the usere are in less numbers to make deals fastly .
I was advised to create another purse in order to store bitcoin so that no operations could be conducted through it, so that they knew less about it. In this way, you can avoid hacking.

I think offline wallet is the safest among the rest, it prevents from scam that usually done by exchanges. But I trust my local exchange because it requires our identification. But I am not sure we can trace them or file a complaint once they scam us.
i think online wallet is also a good option you just need to distribute your bitcoin in different wallet if you want to make it more and more safe.

i am once in a week user of bitcoin that is hardly 1 or 2 times I had to open my wallet for checking transaction for payment of signature campaign and sometimes to send money to friends or whatever.

I guess storing in online wallet is so hard to trust some recommended to use offline but then for it is better if you going to invest it and you coin will grow with interest. I keep few coins in online wallet so as to use them often. For saving i prefer Electrum as it is good light weight wallet.

Is this trading site that you have mentioned is legit? because it is hard to risk bitcoin by depositing it to a Trading site, especially if only few people are using it, might turn out to be a scam. I am only using an online wallet, and that is blockchain, and it is secured as long as you have the password and you didn't say it to anyone and you have the private key because it is the most important.

And I'm saving bitcoins by earning bitcoins in Signature Campaign that pays bitcoin per week or sometimes per month, depends on the campaign though.

For this kind of case, i suggest to used off line wallet don't used online wallet because you are not going to supervise your wallet for a long time and if it is possible spread your money into a different wallets, in that way you decrease the chance of losing your money all at once, the most important is to keep your private key safe and remember to save it, because you are going to invest the coin for a long time
You got a point , if you would choose to keep you wallet the best wallet is an application wallet. An application wallet is very handy and it has very fast transaction. And you can even see the convertion of value of bitcoin so you will know what is the value of your bitcoin. Coin.ph is one of the best example of a good wallet because you can paybills,buyload or even make transactions. In buying and paying load you can earn because there is a rebate every transaction you made. You could also try an alternative or different wallet like blockchain you can have a back up wallet.

I keep my bitcoin on my wallet its safer to store it for a long time to gain more profit. Bitcoin makes it possible for me to get a lot of profit just by storing it because over the time its value will increase. You have to decide wisely where and how to keep your bitcoin in order for it to be prosperous.

I do not think that the success of bitcoin depends on the purse.
I store on the web purse. I'm not sure that's right. But I do not know how to store my bitcoins on my device.

It is your own choice on actively spent some of your bitcoins and cash outing it to local fiat for your physical expenses which is really great and same as yours i do earn bitcoin for the very first time web wallets is the most common things that would be used because of its accesibility and convenience that it gives,

I usually store my bitcoins in my block chain wallet.
If you want to store your bitcoins for 5-10 years,
I insist you to store them offline​ in your USB rather than putting them​ in some wallet.
I think that for long term storage offline is the best way.

When I started collecting Bitcoins in 2012, I was storing all of them in an online wallet named Instawallet (it closed down in 2013). Then I moved my coins to my BTC-e wallet. In 2014, after the Mt Gox theft I decided not to store my coins in any of the exchange wallets. So I moved them again, this time to Blockchain.info wallets. Later that year, I created paper wallets and moved all of my remaining coins to these wallets. For the last 3 years, my coins are stored in a few paper wallets.

The trip quite tiring. Why would you not choose Save bitcoin into PC or Flash you.?? . because according to my experience, purses offline much safer and has a very small level of theft (if your network or your device is not exposed to the virus). And how do you make the bitcoin in your life ..?? whether you use the bitcoin for investment or just want to know about the workings of the bitcoin. >?/

I suggest that you store you coins in an offline wallet. I don't trust any exchange with a large amount of coins. I got scammed by Cryptsy last year that way.

I put it in my online wallet.My wallet is need confirmation or verification if you need to open.I keep it in wallet that sure my bitcoin is safe and secure.Coins.ph is the name of my wallet that totally secure your bitcoins.
it was a good effort to secure your bitcoin dude although hackers had managed to take control of your email but if you use authentication such as sms authy. they still will not be able to get in and steal
What I'm concerned about is that they have control over it, there is no assurance in your money but I know they are trustworthy enough. It's just better to hold your bitcoins in a cold storage that you have the private keys so that you know it's you who has control.

proved so far no one can steal my bitcoin

I’ve use it for loading my mobile phone number for spending and bitcoins at online my wallet I am holding it for a week and I will cash out afterwards. The fiat cash in hand I would choose to store it in my saving account at the bank for important and rush purposes and the remaining btc balance will remain for next holdings. No one can hack it using offline savings because its so secured.
