I save my bitcoin in online wallet with a very powerful and reliable security system. I suggest you also have to choose a wallet that is completely reliable to keep your bitcoin
Just like mine.I keep my bitcoin in an online wallet with my private key.It's more reliable i think than storing it in a bank account.And its gaining much higher interest to the extent of doubled the price compared to the very low interest in a bank.

I store all my wallet.dat files in like 10 different USB sticks offline. I have been doing this since the very first time I started with Bitcoin. It's the best option for me. It is quite time consuming updating each wallet file since I have so many and they need to be stored on all sticks again. Better safe than sorry. Smiley
I agree with your opinion. indeed if you want to save must use the wallet to be more secure than regret later and moreover the contents in the wallet is a lot, like a wallet safer storage that I know.

I have two wallets, the coins.ph and ether wallet but I store my bitcoin in my ether wallet becuase it is only the applicable wallet in our campaign so that our manager can easily access my account when he send me my income.
Yes coins.ph is also Im using actually I store my bitcoin in different wallets. Like coins.ph, blockchain, coinbase, and electrum. These wallet I feel secure and safe which I kept my private keys.  You know etherwallet is not for storing bitcoins it is for different tokens which you applied for an ICO project.

I store mine in several phones and save the seed in several places. I write half the seed down and the other half on another piece of paper and give copies to trusted peers.

I've been storing bitcoin in a trusted exchange market but it also has a high risk of losing bitcoin because it puts the money in there

storing bitcoin in exchange is not safe, even if it is big exchange like poloniex also anything can happen and if the exchange got hacked then your account can also get hacked and you can do nothing. That is why it is recommended to store bitcoin in hardware wallet like electrum which is very lite to use and very secure.
Yes, there are several past incidents where the exchanges got hacked and users lost their entire holding. I have certain amount in online wallet for anywhere accessing and recently a hack attempt was tried over my wallet. After that incident I have started to hold it in the desktop wallet for increased security.

Possibly this is a bold statement right here, but I keep all my eggs in 1 basket, Electrum underneath Linux, I personal the seed, even if I lose my password I can still get better my funds with the seed. I do not know how this can be hacked with out anyone understanding the seed or password, so significantly it has not and I have hopes it will continue to be this way.

If you have already installed the original bitcoin client (Bitcoin Core), then you are running a wallet, but may not even know it., this software also enables you to create a bitcoin address for sending and receiving the virtual currency, and to store the private key for it.

yes I myself often save online so far because the wallet will feel safe from the hackers but also need layered security to stay in the waking state for example, back up the account in use in registering bitcointalk earlier.

Hello everyone as the title says ^
Do you store your bitcoins online or on a wallet on your computer, perhaps cold storage?
I store bitcoins through a certain wallet. It is a wallet that can only be open by its owner. It can also be open through the use of a cellular phone or any gadget and is connected to an internet connection. This wallet is called coins.ph wallet. This is the only wallet that I use to store my bitcoins. To use or register in coins.ph, people must first create an account so that they can be able to use it. It is a good type of wallet to store your bitcoins.

Okay it is good just like you said but there is a problem here.
This is a website wallet that can be accessed by anyone when they get your email address and your password.
If you log in to a shop with a key logger you will be easily get hacked.
Better make a 2fa code to increase your security and if also you better create a wallet that is offline with private keys. The most secured and friendly user like Electrum.
