Print multiple copies of paper wallets each 1 or 5 BTC and diversify them between places. Also put half of them also in the bank deposit.
It is basically worth when it is in the form of bitcoin and bitcoin is usually in Internet.There is no coins of bitcoin in reality it can be store only in online wallets.If you want high profit buy bitcoins you will get high profit and it will be also store so no need to worry how to store. Paper money is also a good option but I do not think that paper material often remain for longer time.

I'd prefer to sell them, I would be too worried to lose them all making some mistakes using cold storage wallets.
I'd divide to several accounts and keep at least some of the keys in bank safe deposits (not necessarily in one country). You only need like 10-15 for any payment smaller than a car.

Create a paper wallet for each 5 Bitcoins. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to lose your BTC, if you do it right. Store them in safe deposit boxes, hidden safes in your house (you can buy small, portable safes also). Get high-quality, 24/7 security cameras monitoring outside for intruders, a foolproof alarm system... these are standard in many homes anyways, so it isn't like people will know how much money you have. Also consider laminating the paper to protect against natural decay or random accidents, such as spilling water, juice, rain, cooking... you get the point. All in all, if you do this you should be safe enough from hacking.
i agree , to avoid hacking / hijacking into your wallet better to split it on a paper walet ,as when you launch even a hardware wallet it's still vulnerable ,
but it's not like when you have been printed it out on a paper wallet ,
noone can access to your bitcoin but yourself.
Create multiple wallet or keep it or devide some for online and some offline and also some in exchange so that you can trade and withdraw in emergency.
I agree because You better share your coin in various online and offline wallets

Have a few Trezors, they're $150 each bro stop scrimping ;P
Hello,
I would advise you to get a hard wallet such as ledger nano S. The most secure way in my opinion to store your bitcoin safely. I have been using it for quite some time now, and it is working really well. The only thing maybe is that it is out of stock for the moment, so you will have to wait some time before it is shipped to you. hope it helped.
Cheers
I wouldn’t store a hundred Bitcoins on a hardware wallet because those things could fail. I would just try to store the coins on a computer that is usually offline and having a password on the wallet along with keeping it in an encrypted file so it would require much more time to try to get into in a worst case scenario.

You are right, Dividing your bitcoins in many wallets(Offline/Online) is the best option to keep your bitcoin safe. Also having a part in some exchange sites is too good. because if one day one wallet will be hacked, others wallet will be still in secure.

Hundred percent would probably be using something along the lines of a paper wallet or something like a hardware wallet which is going to be insanely secure. When you're going to be doing this (making the paper wallet) you're going to have to be doing it with #1 code you trust, a trusted source that made the code that you're going to be generating this wallet on so they're unable to steal anything from you after this. Next, you're going to need to do something along the lines of wiping a computer (or buying a new computer) to be running this code and doing this generation on. Print it out, and you should be fine. I'd use a secure printer as well / even write it down if you're going to want to be extra careful.
Or, skip what I wrote about a paper wallet and by a HW wallet. TRUSTED sources of course.

1 Wallet and get the key tattooed on the back of your head.
Shave one part at a time and use different tattooists to do different parts of the key. Tell no one and avoid short hair cuts from then on. The beauty of this system is if you 'pass away' you can leave instructions for you relatives to shave and inherit!

This seems awfully risky lol! Funny to imagine but easy to screw up. The biggest threat to losing bitcoin is getting too complicated and losing your key
Theft is lower threat compared to that right now? Maybe in future it will change but that's how it is currently.

Not that I have that many (I wish!), but how would you store >100 Bitcoins? The easy answer is just to say "create 1 offline/cold wallet and put them all in". But what about risk management? IE how do you store a very large value of coins while managing risk against hackers, forgetting passwords, the obvious need for at least 1 hot wallet, portability, easy of use, house fires, EMP bomb's (lol), or if a foreigner had to flee a country while taking no assets etc etc.
I'm looking for real responses and ideas. Please keep the trolling to a minimum

You can store it in multiple ways, probably on a paper wallet? But personally if I had much (I wish, too) I would surely invest on a crypto hardware wallet; either a Ledger Nano S or a Trezor. Why you say? A few reasons:
- great security
- has built in displays
- can hold multiple cryptocurrencies
- supports 2 factor authentication (trezor does, not sure about ledger nano s)
I might sound like advertising these products to you (I'm not), but they're just really very good investments in my opinion.
EDIT: I've heard Ledger Nano S is out of stock. Try looking for different sources.
Others will do multiple wallets. There would be hardware wallets, some paper wallets, some desktop wallets for offline computers. Having multiple wallets give the attacker more chance of getting into your coins. If he can't find your paper wallet, he can try and bruteforce his way in your wallet through the offline computer. Honestly, with all the attacks that can happen, one way that I'm thinking is to just memorize the private key. I know it's absurd or whatever, and it's risky, but no one can hack into your brain. Nobody knows the things that you have in mind.
Memorize the private key. And then for a while have the private key on a piece of paper. Recite the private key every morning and use the piece of paper to see if you did recite right. Then if you can recite the private key without any hassle, then burn the paper. Continue reciting the private key every morning. Make it a routine, otherwise your bitcoins will be gone.
And if people are going to come at me saying, "How about if you get an amnesia?" There's very low chance of you getting an amnesia. I don't even personally know anyone that has amnesia. But if you do get an amnesia I'm pretty sure you will also forget how to use other bitcoin wallets.

I think that for storing such a large volume of Bitcoins, the only safe option is multiple hardware wallets. But I am not that familiar with hardware wallets either. I know that they can't be hacked. But is it possible to store the backups in multiple locations? What will happen if the hardware gets corrupted?
Haha. Put it in an online wallet. 
Just kidding. >100BTC is too much to store in a single wallet. I would recommend that you use a mixture of wallets. Perhaps split the Bitcoin into 5 wallets that provide cold storage or in 5 separate hardware wallets. Another course of action would be to convert the 100 Bitcoin into an asset like gold. I would then buy a top of the notch safe and store my gold bars in there.
Yes you may use a multiple wallet because a single wallet cant be stored in a one wallet only. You may also buy some alt coin and make it an investment it is good because it can be for your investment in the future, when you stored it then your bitcoin may be grown and increases too. Invest it in other platforms. Just kidding. >100BTC is too much to store in a single wallet. I would recommend that you use a mixture of wallets.

a big value to keep in my opinion would be better to hold it real I mean to exchange it with fiat it will be more soothing you will not fret. but if me I'm going to save it in 1 wallet that I really believe to keep it remain how do you manage the security that the wallet provides.
