I usually store my BTC in the Blockchain.info wallet. I also use exchanges to store some BTC

It is better to store small amount in the oneline wallet or the exchanges. You might lose control of your coins.

Don't store your coins in one wallet.
If you get hacked they got all your bitcoins it would be very bad.

I am also using online wallets to store my bit coins. I know that it is not safe to store large Bitcoins in one wallet. So, I have used many wallets sometimes it is difficult to manage them but I know it is very important for security purpose because anyone can hack wallet easily and get all of Bitcoins.

I just keep my bitcoins in Xapo vault. I believe it's an insured one. So, keeping bitcoin there gives me the advantages of mobility as well as cold storage.

Xapo vault is the best option but I see it never got discussed here. If somebody shares their experience with XAPO vault cold storage, that would be more useful for many members here.

Bittrex Is very secure exchange sometimes it's very profitable to store few coins there.
 Alts are coming back on scene.
And biggest gains can be achieved by involving in alts on time , do you remember CRAVE?

i store my coins in Android-based wallets such as Mycellium. Bigger ammounts I transfer to my Trezor divice, which is arguably the most secure way to store coins in existence.

Storing my BTC online in a PC wallet currently "Electrum" because it's just a fraction of BTC currently and constantly using it so need a fast method, If I store few BTC then paper wallets or offline wallets is a good idea IMO.

It's very simple

Online wallet for small amounts (for practical purposes)

Offline cold storage for big amounts (not practical at all, but very secure).

I store them in a online wallet its the best to store your bitcoins.
Plus its also easy to use and fast.
The only downside is that the wallets can be hacked so don't store all your bitcoins on one wallet.

I keep most on an old mobile device, not connected to the internet and is just kept on my drawer with some passcodes needed before you can open it. Idk of that's a great thing to do, but I find it easy to send in times of need than a paper wallet.

Well it is not recommended way to store really, if you're storing only a small amount then it is fine but you should try and use desktop wallets, they're much safer and easier to use. The safest way to store coins actually are in a cold storage but again it depends on the quantity.

i used to only have one wallet on blockchain.info online wallet, but as my bitcoin amount grew, i moved to Electrum and paper wallet for more security.

You did the right thing. People who keep them in web wallets are either not aware or don't care or are living in a false pretense.

It wouldn't be safe to store all your coins in an online wallet. Yes, it's best to keep them in separated in different wallets.
If you don't use your coins just store them on in an offline wallet.

I too like to store all my bitcoins in my block chain wallet which is safe and can do the trading through it easily.
