Safest is paper wallet
you won't find anything safest
download the paper wallet program in a safe computer and disconnect from internet
after that you can generate many wallets and just use one

I've recently moved my cold storage to a hot wallet for a purchase which never went through, I'm looking to make a new cold storage but a quick and easy efficent way. Which is 100% safe from online attacks. I have a spare computer which has been on the internet before and used for a short while but I'm going to be wiping it clean soon.

I don't want to use the Bitcoin core client as it takes me around 3 days to sync and I need to get my coins into cold storage as soon as possible. Whats the quickest, easiest and safest way to do this?

Trezor is out of the question as I see my Bitcoin worth too much to spend 0.2 on it, if I could pay in cash for it I would.

1. Go to blockchain.info.

2. Create a wallet.

3. Download the paper wallet in PDF format and print out. Write the password on it.

4. Send your coins to this address.

5. Remove all digital copies of your blockchain.info password and the PDF.

Thanks, but this requires me to be online to be able to do it right? So wouldn't this be a flaw and if my computer is infected or is connected to the internet it could be a vunerbility? I have considered doing this but because of this flaw Its stopped me from doing it. I will be doing a clean reinstall of Linux Ubuntu to do this so it should remove all viruses but I'm still concerned about connected to the internet and doing this.

There was a site which allowed you to do it quickyl and easily but I'm not sure how safe it is. you can always use the blockchain.info method which seems pretty safe to me.
