What are the measures to keep your private key safe and in memory ? Are there any alternatives to retrieve the key back ?

I once read a simple reminder for everyone that says," Don't trust your mind. WRITE IT DOWN." This is totally true and should be followed. Just secure it once you have written it printed it. And try to rely or trust someone with your secret.

You can print it in paper or you could write it somewhere else. You could also save it in a notepad or in a flash drive. Never trust your memory, it always fail and memory retention does not guarantee you everything, you could lose all your hardwork. As much as possible, keep it somewhere safe and retrievable.

Print your private keys to any form of paper that you can keep for safety. Don't trust your memory even you are the champion in memory verse challenges, it isn't enough to keep your funds.

You can also create a file on a notepad and save it to a flash drive and don't use that drive to any computer that you don't own. Don't use it to public places.

If you lost it, that's lost forever.

If you lost your private key and password it would gone forever. However, there are some alternative way to retrieve your wallet like putting your email so that once your forgot your password you have chance to change password it. Lastly, you can print your private key and then keep it in a safe place or create a note where you can put private key.

If you forget the key of their wallet it seems there is nothing they can do because it will be stored forever there and you lost what you have.

I think if you have lost the key of bitcoin wallet then they will have difficulty to access it. And it will also be very difficult to open it. So I suggest you do a backup or you can write on a piece of paper that you save safely. Because the key is a very personal and fixed. That's my opinion.

To avoid forgetting they key of your bitcoin wallet make sure that your password is easy to think, make a pattern that describing your password or think a memorable part and give it a clue to become your password. Use simple password if your mind is not good in memorizing password. Make sure that you key or password is very safe from the others, don't let anyone know your password.

Once you lost your private key you won't have other means to open your wallet again. So you must keep several copies of it and don't trust fully your memory. You should print it, write it, save it in your phone and external memories but you should never ever give it to other people .

If someone loose or forgot the key of their bitcoin it only means its the end of their hard earned investments. Key is the important protection of every wallet of investors without it you cannot make transaction buying and selling of bitcoin. So it better to secure back-ups not only 1 but lots of back up.

Well it can be problematic if you lose your keys. You will lose your coins forever if you lose your private keys. The best way is to write it down or print it on a paper and store it somewhere safe. Don't make it too obvious that its a private key. Also others suggesting to store it in a flash drive isn't actually the best thing to do. Every electronic device wears out as time goes by. So it becomes risky as you flash drive might stop working. Another good idea is to store it on the internet using the cloud or some other form that allows you to access your information with just internet connection.

A very bad situation would be if I forgot a password one day. Everything will lose in a minute. That's why I keep a password handwriting, I have a married picture in the circle, I write on the back and hang on the wall. Safe too.

I wrote down my private keys on a small notebook and kept it in a safe box so no one will ever see snd touch it. And sad to say there are no other ways to retrieve them if ever you lost them.

Never save your private key in your device, it's better to note your private key on paper
