Is it safe to keep all your Bitcoins in one wallet in blockchain.info? I have 2FA activated but still.
If one type of wallet by chance got identified with any possible vulnerability, the bitcoins in other type of wallet will be safer by that time. So, it highly advisable not to hoard all the coins into single address/wallet. Personally I use multibit, electrum and blockchain.info for various reasons. I have back up in three different geo locations.

It depends on what type of wallet are you storing up your bitcoins, If its on an online wallet then sure it has big risk on lossing it because you dont have its private keys unlike on pc wallets and cold storages. Web wallets are only good for faster online transactions.
Agree, web or online wallet are good only for fast exchange or payments onto services online or buying up something but its not really safe to put up your bitcoin on their but there are still good web wallets like blockchain which do have a good security on their wallets and i didnt even heared about any complain of being hacked or lost bitcoins into someone.
Keeping bitcoins in online wallet involves huge risk as some may hack your wallet in future so better choice is to put them in offline wallet so the risk of loosing your bitcoins gets lower and you can transfer your bitcoins to online wallet only in case if you are gonna sell them and that also the amount that you require.
It depends on what kind of wallet you are using. Cold storage is recommended if you're planning to keep all your coins in one wallet.
As for me I'm dividing my funds into 3 wallets, 1 Web, 1 Android, 1 windows

In my own opinion with this , i could really say that its better to store all your bitcoins on a single wallet for you dont have any confusions regarding on your transactions , if you do really hold tons of bitcoins then make a partitions, best to store those on a hardware wallet with private keys been keep secure and then get only the amount you would use and put it on either pc wallet or web wallet just be responsible to take care of your bitcoins.
If you have 2FA activated, then I think it is safe. Your mobile is always with you, so everything is ok. But you can buy also Trezor hardware wallet - it is safest bet.
4 years I use blockchain.info and also activated 2FA. as long as it is also I keep my bitcoin in large amounts and I never got any problems, let alone got hacked. blockchain.info even now getting better with new features, as well as better security.
If you ask me, Yes it's safe to keep all your bitcoins in one wallet. I've been keeping my bitcoins on a blockchain wallet for a few months and based on my experience, I didn't encountered any problems. But before you put all your bitcoins to one wallet you need to make sure that your wallet is secured by enabling 2FA so even though the hackers already know your password they can't get your bitcoins because you have the final key which is the 2FA.
I guess that is nice that you can get your private key.
But the problem is someone else has access to it too.

I've been using blockchains wallet for a few years now, keeping small amounts tho, but if you know how to keep your wallet safe, you're good.

For my opinion, is it safe to keep all your bitcoins in one desktop wallet but your computer must be safe from viruses or malware and also encrypted with passwords. For online wallets, I do not think they are very secure as I do not have the full control of the wallet. I cannot get the private keys on the online wallet sometimes. They also might discloses information to a third party as the service can associate your payments together, log your IP address and know your real identity if you provide personal information like your email, name or banking account. So choose your wallet carefully.
Actually you could already get your private keys on a particular web wallet which is blockchain.info , this information is being said on this forum by some member which i knew it also recently and i try to find it and i actually see it and its really a good thing that we have an access to our keys on a web wallet. New thing on my ears but this is really a good news. It depends on how good you are at managing different account.
In case you are a little absentminded and put the list with your passwords in places you forget them, or match the passwords to the wrong wallets, it might be a good decision to make it as easy as possible.
And that would mean having just one wallet where everything comes together.
Of course, if that one wallet is corrupted somehow, everything is gone.
Is there any posibility that one wallet can be corrupted somehow? and then what will the CEO gonna do with the bitcoins? i think it save automatically into his wallet? And yeh it depends on how good he is managing different accounts of bitcoin wallets and for me i always printing important things and information regarding on my bitcoin wallet.In case you are a little absentminded and put the list with your passwords in places you forget them, or match the passwords to the wrong wallets, it might be a good decision to make it as easy as possible.

I think ther is no program out there that can actually break into your wallet and steal the coins you own.
With corrupted I mean that somebody gets hold over your login details. That can happen if the computer has some sort of virus on it that logs your key strikes.
It's the same with the printed version. Pictures are taken relatively fast these days with every smartphone.
Once the coins are out of your reach, they are lost for ever.

I am more comfortable using online wallet. Cause i change my password everyday to avoid being hacked by someone ,and using 2a authentication.
Yes it is good to keep all your bitcoins in one wallet, but you have to follow of their security measures. I am maintaining all my bitcoins at one place only.
It's not a good idea. Even if you already set all the security configurations the system isn't 100% safe.
The chance of something bad happen to your money is low but it's real.
If you have a lot of money, caution with that, because you can be the target of malicious persons.
If you do not intend to keep high amounts of btc on that wallet, if you use it emidiately than i believe its ok, ive been using one wallet (blockchain.info) for pretty much everything and didnt ever had problems, just make sure u use all available security measures.

For me it's not safe. Why?, because what if someone accidentally open your account and transfer all your bitcoin in his account?, then all your hard works, efforts, and time just to earn that amount of bitcoin would just be ended up in nothing. The other is that you can also get ban here if someone notice that you are using one bitcoin wallet using your two account here, and I know you don't want it to happen, that's why it would be better if you would have two different bitcoin wallet in your two account to be safe.
Offline and online wallet has its disadvantages. They all both has a risk. Its up to you how you manage the risks For small amount, i preffer online wallet. But for large amount i preffer cold storage or paper wallet. If you are not confident to to store your btc in one wallet. Then split it and store it to your desired wallet.
i would not suggested to keep all of our bitcoin in one wallet because if something bad happen then we can loss all of our bitcoin, so better to spread your bitcoin into many wallet and don't forget to activate 2FA. don't put all your egg in one basket.
first of allyou should explain what type of bitcoin wallet you are using so it can give us a clear review to decide on. anyway i am using a android wallet and an desktop wallet. and i trust both of them even if dont have the full network control i mean i am not downloading the full blockchain network but yes its safe and maximum level of security is there
Well, it's best to keep your Bitcoins in cold storage and hardware wallets, but if yiu do wish to keep the online, so that they can be accessed easily, i'd suggest, use the blockchain ONLY! It's the most hack proof of all. And why not keep them in one wallet? Hacking is almost impossible nowadays with the kind of security Blockchain uses...I have studied it, the protocols are pretty secure and it's pretty hard to crack.

A wallet does not simply get corrupted, it can get hacked or someone can forget the password if he is using a web wallet, and in that case if you have not saved your recovery phrase and you also don't have your private key then your bitcoins will be freezed their and no one will have access to them unless someone hack your account which i don't know if possible or not.
Is it safe to keep all your Bitcoins in one wallet in blockchain.info? I have 2FA activated but still.
I'm keepin mine on blockchain.info without 2FA, and didn't have any issues at all, altho I'm keepin small amounts. If you have high amounts of btc, you'd be better off with a cold storage.
I also keep mine on blockchain.info and I believe that it's really secure, but depending how many BTC I had I would put all my eggs in one basket.
As we have seen in the crypto world hacks and security issues happen ALL THE TIME. The only real way to keep your BTC safe is with an offline wallet. If you don't have a ton of BTC its probably not worth the hassle though.
It would really not worth for the hassle if you only posses only small amounts of bitcoin , then you should not bother yourself about choosing and deciding how many wallets you should used because its still useless thing. You would really need to ask these things if you do have huge amounts of bitcoins, as same on other members said here better to put up those bitcoins on a cold storage and just impart only a small percentage on your hot wallet.

If you have a lot of Bitcoins, it is good to have a couple of wallets, both hot wallets and cold wallets, hot wallets for daily using of your bitcoin and cold wallet for large storage of your bitcoins.
You can always add funds from your cold wallet to your hot wallet anytime, but problem is you need to store all your wallet recovery phrase well in case you forgot your password and lose access to your bitcoins.

Is it safe to keep all your Bitcoins in one wallet in blockchain.info? I have 2FA activated but still.
Ofcourse blockchain is the safest bitcoin wallet in internet that most people uses nowadays to store there bitcoins or there earnings from trading and gambling blockchain is very safe not only to have 2fa activiated but also the key or username of your account will always send it to your email address.
I wouldn't recommend storing all of your Bitcoin in an online wallet as it is very insecure. Only store small amounts on an online wallet and make sure to change your wallet address frequently to increase security. However, there is not problem with storing it in a cold wallet.
Is it safe to keep all your Bitcoins in one wallet in blockchain.info? I have 2FA activated but still.
Yes 100% but if you are not sure restoring or holding your bitcoin wallet in one wallet like blockchain.info you can find some good bitcoin wallet and if there's an bitcoin wallet that based on your country it is really good when yo uare using it , it makes your transaction more faster than other walletsnot really safe to store coins in blockchain.info as that is an online wallet if you asked me, we will never know if the site goes down without any notification to its users, can you say that is safe? even blockchain.info last forever, there is still a risk you will get hacked or lose your 2FA device. safe is when you have full control over your private keys and having backup of it
Offline cold storage wallet is going to be the only thing that is totally safe.
Depending on the amount you are talking, its probably fine to store in an wallet like Electrum etc.
Be sure to find a wallet that lets you keep permission of her private key.
Least secure is the exchanges.
You can enable 2FA so ono one can get in without using an app on their cell phone,
but you don't control your private keys, and if someone finds a security hole in the site they may rob the entire exchange.
And there is no FDIC insurance to replace your money if it gets stolen.

Stories about exchanges hacks are starting from Mtgox, and you can be sure that anyone who lost money through such hack, never more hold coins in online wallets.
The only 100% safe method to store your coins, is cold wallet with strong password.
Yes it is. But you still need to be secured enough. You need to keep your systems well secured with iutlines given by ghe creater. More google search finders tend to notice the URL once they start fròm sining in. I happened to experience these kind of issues. It lead me loose around .05 btc
according to my experience has been that using blockchain.info and have added 2FA highly secure 100%, never lost.
but I suggest if the store in a very large amount, it is better to divide with some cold wallet.

Online wallet also quite good to have your bitcoins. However, sometime if you log in by google search, You need to get scammed these kind of situations. Better try to use the desktop wallet or cold storage to have your bitcoins with better safety.

You are talking about keeping coins in one online wallet. It is mistake.
None online wallet will never be safe enough. If you want your coins are safe, keep them in your cold wallet. In addition, secure it with very good password and copy wallet.dat to at least two external media.
It should be enough.

Yes Bro Its 100% Safe But You have to Maintain Full Security Of Your Wallet Like You have to Enable 2FA Verification System Or Other Security Measures Like You have Block Tor Browsers Mainly Used By Hackers....Its not fully safe though even you block tor connections and 2fa , all web wallets do have some risk on lossing your bitcoin hence you dont have the posession of your private keys on your bitcoin then for sure the risk of lossing it is still there unlike on storing your bitcoin on a hardware wallet or desktop pc which you have your private keys and could able to retrieve or get your bitcoins back incase it would be lost. Web wallets are good only if you do make fast transactions and just be sure to store only small amounts.

Do yourself a favor and please activate 2FA... Especially by announcing it here you make a potential target of yourself.
It is hardly any work at all to activate it and it will really boost the security of your coins.

It is not safe at all, people mostly use multiple wallets of different type to keep all their coins to be safe because if you just keep them in one and if it is an online wallet then you are not 100% safe as there is always a chance of a website to get hacked or something, so you should better keep them in a offline or cold wallet in order to be safe.
Nothing is %100 safe. Even if you use a hardware coldwallet, it can always get stolen by someone.
However, you can always reduce your risks to minimum. The biggest risks are using online wallets and using unprotected computers. If you fix those, you are %99 safe. Most people get hacked because they are too reckless about securing their PC's. We live in 2016 and there are still people who use their PC without an antivirus. They deserve everything they got.
You can still reduce risks to get hacked by using multiple wallets but to me that's too much work. 1 wallet is more than enough if you follow simple security steps. Take a look at people who get hacked on Polo or btc-e, all of them them weren't using 2FA. A system like 2FA is just a simple security system yet it is hack proof %100. (unless someone hacks the whole website at least)

If it is big money it should be conserved adequately with the proper secure wallet. Paper wallets if generated offline in an offline computer and safeguarded like they should is the best free option to keep your money safe. If you have some money to spend on a hardware wallet by all means do so.
Many people thought they were secure with wallets like blockchain.info until they found out that they were not secure at all. Better prepare yourself in advance with the proper bitcoin wallet to store your coins in a safe way. Maybe it will look like a difficult thing in the beginning but is not.

If it's big money you should keep it on different addresses.
Not easy to lose it but better to diversifie risk.

Yeah, blockchain.info is safe online wallet and operating for many years. But if you're confident at any online wallet then try paper or cold storage. I recommended it for big amounts of coins. Im using online wallet and so far so good and doesnt steal my btc.
This is part of what I was getting at earlier:
I was just pointing out the hacking scenario, not the site shutting down scenario. But the same thing applies.
If someone hacks blockchain.info and takes the private keys for wallets then it does not matter if they are in multiple wallets or one. I guess maybe a small chance that they only get one of your wallets not both/all. 
I was just pointing out the hacking scenario, not the site shutting down scenario. But the same thing applies.
I am showing up a little late to this thread but a thought is jumping out at me so I decided to post it.
Lets say your online wallet has a super long password and you have perfect 2FA setup on that online wallet. So great, you go to bed thinking all is well and then you get up and find out the site has been shut down. Its happened numerous times with major hacks. Just because YOUR wallet is configured safely, the controlling "host" site can get robbed due to bad protocol. Now you don't have a site to log into. I don't want to scare you, just state the obvious. I can see you are thinking long term so plan accordingly. Any online site today may not be around in 5 or 10 years. Take a long term outlook when you discuss storage.

Yes, when you store all your coins on a trusted wallet, your coins will be safe for sure. But you stored all your coins on blockchain... I don't know if it's really safe. You should use a cold wallet. Store your coins on a computer without internet connection and without virus and you will be fine, ok?
If you store your bitcoin correctly, it does not matter if they are in one wallet or separate wallets - they are all equally safe. If you store them separately, but incorrectly, you can assume that if one wallet can be compromised, others can as well.
However you may want to use separate wallets if you want to have separate identities online - so if someone looks at your transactions it is not immediately obvious that they've come from the same user.

No, it's not safe. But it's very boring to have money splitted everywhere. Some money on each wallet... I think the technology should give us more advantages on that way, but the virtual world is very unsafe yet.
If you fear to lose your money, you can can divide your money into different wallets and write all the informations about how much you have on each wallet, links, passwords, etc... So you won't forget about anything. It's just a possibilite...

There are a lot of them like Trezor, Ledger, Keepkey etc. You can google about them to read more in depth about them and why they are the best option so far for storing bitcoins.
This cannot be stated enough. A proper hardware wallet that stores you coins offline is well worth the money. Trezors are one of the best investments you can make.
No. Maybe a cold wallet would be safe but it's still risky. Split your savings into different wallets like me. I have over 20 of them and it feels much more safe.
If you are asking if it's safe I am assuming you have a nice and considerable amount of bitcoin (at least I think it's considerable to you) and if that is the case the best option in where to store your bitcoins is without a doubt the hardware wallet.

Use multisig. Keep offline. 
Here's a list of steps that you need to take:
1) Don't use Blockchain.info.
2) Do not use online wallets.
3) If you need a quick wallet, then use a SPV wallet such a Electrum, otherwise use a full implementation such as Bitcoin Core.
4) Read this to educate yourself on wallets and better options: [General] Bitcoin Wallets - Which, what, why?

It is not as safe as keeping them in 2 wallets.
If the wallet generation method is compromised, this does not offer you added security at all. The only way that this would truly give a benefit was if you used completely different storage methods (e.g. completely different software, machine and so on).
I would recommend against this. Online wallets are a lot more risky than cold storage, and putting all your eggs in one basket (aka one wallet) is never a good idea. That doesn't mean you should go crazy with tons of wallets, but spreading the risk is smart IMO. 2fa helps but is not foolproof. Are you using windows or another OS? IMO using windows makes it a lot less secure as there are so many ways for you to have malware on your computer.
It is not as safe as keeping them in 2 wallets. Reason is you might lose your private key to one wallet, or it's possible it could get hacked in some sort of fashion. You just never know. Better to spread your funds through multiple Paper Wallets/Cold Storage. But not too many that it is a chore to keep up with.
If you really need online wallet, you should activate 2FA, use strong password and don't login from unsecured/public PC.
But, if you only use bitcoin from your PC, i would recommend you to use SPV wallet such as Electrum which is more secure, lightweight and also easy to use.

I heard that it is not safe to keep all the bitcoins at one online wallet.
Keep it in different wallets and I suggest cold wallets are better to keep.
Good luck.

Is it safe to keep all your Bitcoins in one wallet in blockchain.info? I have 2FA activated but still.
Are asking about splitting them up on multiple wallets all on blockchain.info?
If so then yes, it is equally safe to keep them all in one blockchain.info wallet or in multiple blockchain.info wallets.
If someone hacks blockchain and takes the private keys for wallets then it does not matter if they are in multiple wallets or one. I guess maybe a small chance that they only get one of your wallets not both/all.

I'm keepin mine on blockchain.info without 2FA, and didn't have any issues at all, altho I'm keepin small amounts. If you have high amounts of btc, you'd be better off with a cold storage.
Cold wallet? Why not?
Online wallet? Bad idea.
