Anything over 5 bitcoin I store on my trezor wallet. It's safe and the price for this security is nothing compared to the fact what you can lose.
So forget the halving, if you got money and you are serious about it, store it offline or even better, buy a trezor.

if you have big amount of bitcoin it is always better to keep it in a secure cold wallet not only in halving period . this is a principle security measure for your bitcoin (cold wallet ) also you have to consider small amount of btc in exchange for daily trading.
Yes, the best way is to use a trezor or have a pc from which you connect sometimes to the internet. If you use it on your main pc and you download, or even open your mails, your wallet is
vulnerable. It's your money, so make sure to secure it.

You dont need to change what your doing because of the halving. If there was a hard fork i would withdraw. But people here dont understand that traders need to keep their coins on a exchange so you can make sells instantly if needed.
Well IMO I think you should store it in your personal wallet. That would be safer than in exchange. Exchange can close down their site and offline wallet wouldn't.
Store bitcoins by associating them with addresses called “wallets”. Wallets can be stored on web services, on local hardware like PCs and mobile devices, or on paper print-outs. Thefts of bitcoins from web services and online wallets have been covered in the media, prompting assertions that the safest way to store bitcoins is on secure paper wallets.
You can keep your bitcoins in the secured offline wallet you owned so it will be more secure and safe during the next halving.
You guys are great.

I'll move my BTC in cold storage.
Happy halving to you all!

that's the best decision.
but if you have never used cold storage before i suggest you to first try making one and testing it with small amounts to learn how to create a secure one and also learn spending from it then send all your funds there.

I normally leave my BTC in Polo so I can exchange them whenever I want.
During halving I was wondering whether this is advisable, or is better to keep them in cold storage.
What do you think about? Any suggestion?
Thanx to everyone!
You should NEVER keep your bitcoin on an exchange. If the exchanges fucks up and something goes wrong, ALL your coin are gone. This has happened too many times, yet people still don't know this.During halving I was wondering whether this is advisable, or is better to keep them in cold storage.

Keep your bitcoin on an address you control. Most likely on your computer, your phone, or a trusted website like xapo, or coinbase.
i would never leave my bitcoin in an exchange, have you learnt nothing from the past? and why would the halving make any differance?
yeah a few years ago turned into a GOX Mt exchange scam. they made off with more than 1000 BTC. Fortunately I did not keep a lot of bitcoin on the exchange. I think you have to learn from that experience. no site will always be alive or no truly safe
it is never a good idea to keep your bitcoin on and exchange site. they can run any at any time without a warning or a sign of becoming a scam. just like many others like cryptsy that turned into scams.

Just keep it on your wallet. Halving is just like an ordinary day to bitcoin. There are no big issues there or changes really. But if you are afraid that the price will go down then froze your bitcoin for the moment. But halving is not a big deal that you will panic as on to where to hide your bitcoins. Just do your daily transaction like what you did before and do not panic.
Halving or no halving, it doesn't make a difference when it comes to the way you store your coins. Stop keeping your coins in an exchange when you are not using them. Offline storage is the best possible option as always. Do it now.
I would recommend to keep in the exchanges only the amount that you are willing to trade (i.e. the amount that you are ok to lose) , so that you won't miss any potential spike in the first days after the halving. Keep the rest of them in desktop wallets or in cold store.

In an address that only you have the keys to, in a cold wallet. Even if you plan on speculating on the price, hear my words: alot of zany bitcoin heist have been going down lately as we approach the halving. I'm telling everyone to be extra vigilant at the moment, your bitcoin are very precious right now and I think the bad guys are aware of this.

Keeping them into the exchange is really not recommended , things could go wrong in online services.
I suggest keeping them in a Desktop wallet like Electrum or If it's a big amount then cold storage is the best (Paper wallet).

i highly not recommend you to keep your money in an exchange because in my opinion there is a huge risk that bitcoin exchanges might fail or be "robbed" and you will lose moneyDuring halving I was wondering whether this is advisable, or is better to keep them in cold storage.

i think you should keep your bitcoins in a cold storage and not transfer it during the halving because the price of the fee will be huge, also you might put your bitcoins to an online wallet

I think any wallet safe enough. but to have the ease of use preformance more simple. I recommend storing bitcoin in blockchain.

Yeah, just use Polo. I would suggest you use addresses that are the base of your transactions. it doesn't make any difference though. During halving I was wondering whether this is advisable, or is better to keep them in cold storage.
