I just store it on wallet online and some of it I store on an exchange, so far I'm sure, if we do it very carefully and keep checking, then our funds will be fine.
For my bitcoins i prefer to use mobile wallet Mycelium. Because it is the cold wallet which allow you to store your seed phrase safely outside the device and change the comission for transactions.
Well i just store my bitcoins by using coins.ph wallet, and this wallet is very safe and very secured, this wallet is very popular now in my country and i am confident that my bitcoins will be safe, and will surely grow using wallet.

My most of the bitcoins are stored in offline wallet (ledger nano s), other then that i use binance exchange wallet for storing the bitcoins i want to do trade with.
I would like store my Bitcoins in Ledger S Nano because i think its the Best wallet
I too spread my bitcoins in many wallets. On different types of wallet. Online, on mobile and on hardware wallets. I feel safer on this. I use the online wallet for fast conversion of funds and hardware wallets for savings.
Storing of Bitcoin is not a problem at all but having Bitcoin is a little difficult for a new comer into this business. If you have savings then you can buy Bitcoin through Blockchain that will make things easy for you. I personally use Blockchain wallet to keep it secure. Security related to Bitcoin generally does not depend upon source but your password. If you keep your password secure then no one can harm your wallet.
NEVER put all your eggs in one basket; this is my rule for storing my bitcoins. I have majority of my bitcoins stored on blockchain.info, Is a reliable site and it allows me to have access to the private key, thus me having control of coins. My other coins are stored on poloniex, where I trade, I got others too on wave decentralize platform where I used for trading other altcoins.
i don't trust third part services for store a lot of bitcoin, maybe for your daily needs it's ok, but i would advice you to use off-line wallets. Online wallets are more vulnerable

I prefer wallet on my personal gadget to be safer than on those times that I have to log in my account to the computer dor me to access it and I am very thankful my country have develop some functional and accessible wallet like what we are using nowadays even the ethereum was available to this wallet and pin code was present for the times that someone will have your phone.
Having to store your bitcoins is ver risky because of some hackers that definitely can take your money out of your wallet, yes, it is not possible. You have to be mindful with this, not just put all of your money to your wallet online. You can always withdraw with real money. The right thing to do also is splitting it to different accounts so if you lose one account it's not all of your bitcoin in just easy way of getting it.
we have many choices were we should store our bitcoins in online wallets which is pretty safe.I store my bitcoins in Mycelium wallet...like my friends who is a hero member in this sub forum suggested me to use Blockchain wallet and best way to keep your bitcoins safe is to keep it in cold storage which is highly recommended...
I personally use Blockchain and some other wallets to store my bitcoins 
I use blockchain, but only for small amounts. I think the best method to store higher amounts is that you should buy a cold wallet 
I think the wallet phone is not much risky, it will look like our wallet to the notes / cash-money in our pockets 
You can store all bitscoin in the vault of xapo. It is safe and secure but if your account is compromised and your balance has been stolen then you can claim the money and be responsible for paying for your insurance policy 
My bitcoin is stored in blockchain in coinbase and xapo because I have very small amounts 
I stored it on my pocket wallet and I thought it was a safe place to store bitcoin. That's the best purse right now, for me it's safe
I know online wallets may not be safe but I had a small amount in blockchain.info since I entered the market

Are bitcoin wallets safe?Do you store your bitcoins online or on a wallet on your computer, perhaps cold storage?
That depends on the version and format you have chosen, and how you use them.
The safest option is a hardware wallet which you keep offline, in a secure place. That way there is no risk that your account can be hacked, your keys stolen and your bitcoin whisked away. But, if you lose the wallet, your bitcoin are gone, unless you have created a clone and/or kept reliable backups of the keys.
The least secure option is an online wallet, since the keys are held by a third party. It also happens to be the easiest to set up and use, presenting you with an all-too-familiar choice: convenience vs safety.
Many serious bitcoin investors use a hybrid approach: they hold a core, long-term amount of bitcoin offline, while having a "spending balance" for liquidity in a mobile account. Your choice will depend on your bitcoin strategy, and your willingness to get "technical."
Whatever option you go for, please be careful. Back up everything, and only tell your nearest and dearest where your backups are stored.

It is better to have your wallet on the computer and have full control over your coins, just think what happens if the site where your wallet is lost and you Can not access your coin in the time required
