I know it's mostly important to use a wallet that allows you control the private key.  Example : jaxx works.

Well for me. I will still use my Old online Wallet as if it is.. I don't have much bitcoin anyway in my  online wallet. Hope to see the good results on this incoming hard fork again.

Any offline wallet that let you have full control over your private keys.

I suggest you to use Electrum. It's simple, lightweight and safe.

Don't (ever) store your coins in a web wallet or exchange like Coinbase, Poloniex, etc...

This is a question that has also been on my mind too ever since ths discussion has gotten to a head to the point of a thread created by the  Admin that even after several months of being involved in bitcoin, I have only used online wallets which I believe right now is not the right place to keep coins at this time. Hopefully, the worst won't happen in August 1 so everything can be back to normal within a short period of time.

I heard that you should keep your bitcoin in some offline wallet,
And also you should make sure that you don't have coins in any third-party bitcoin wallet's.
Hope this helps and goodluck.
