I keep my crypto coins in hardware wallet. For those coins that are not supported by my hardware wallet, I will keep in the official wallet of the coins.

How do you manage to keep your crypto coins? 

I make sure I have not just one hard drive but more than one to make sure that I have back ups in case my crypto wallet is gone for whatever reason.
i save my coins in local wallet, very safety and easy because if there is problem about that you can complain in owner . i prefer to save my coins in local wallet than in hardware wallet or webwallet etc

I use hardware wallets, usbs, external drives, and 2fa on every account that I can. I think that makes things quite secure. Oh and dont keep coins on an exchange as they are not yours at that moment.

Try only using exchanges for exchanging coins not storing.

I take backup everyday and keep them in 2 pen drives separately which i use to backup from the system weekly once. So that if any day my system crashes i should not be in trouble.

It depends on your plans for your coins. If you want to buy and hold then a wallet is best. If,however, you want to trade,lend or use arbitrage you need them in an exchanger.
I usually have my coins placed on an exchange so I can sell them for profit whenever I see the opportunity to do so. Not all coins should be put inside a wallet because there’s time where the time it takes for the transaction to confirm is long so by placing them inside an exchange is the best thing out for spending the coins.
Bitcoin is the only coin that should be placed somewhere securely since most coins on this forum and within coinmarketcap depend on it to be traded. Altcoins and fiat don’t really have any special perks here unless they were already popular from Bitcoin.

I think that the person who own some currencies should for sure make some backups in many places, because it's very important when you lost one you have still another one safe in other place. It is obvious but also strong password with symbols like "%^*(#".
Also MyEtherWallet and ledger are perfect to keep your coins safe.
Paper wallet is also nice idea, but i am afraid of people whom could come into a paper.

When it comes to storing bitcoins then I think Electrum wallet is the best as its easy to use and the altcoins that I have are ethereum based so that I prefer to save in my ether wallet as it is very user friendly and it ensures the safety of coins in the wallet as you cannot afford to loose your coins in the hands of the hackers and ether wallet makes that difficult.

I'm using Electrum & mew. Private keys are saved in password protected .xlsx lists and stored in multiple hard drives.



But still how can you protect yourself if a hacker has a RAT on your computer and can just copy your password whenever you type it in?
It doesn't matter, if your machine is infected a hacker might as well copy the wallet file, the mnemonic seed, password or whatever he/she wants. When a hacker has access, all bets are off.

if you do not have enough hard drive you can use the private key that you created in wallet then save it in a safe place . because private key is more efficient memory than backup wallet .

I only use myether to store them for safekeeping, I am very afraid to use electronic devices for storage because they can be stolen or risk fire or something.

you just need to keep backing up your wallet and save it from your usb so just I case your pc break down you still have the back to recover if I'm not mistaken every coin have their back up so just in case it will be easy for us to re-download the wallet then just insert the back and it will be regain.
