A flash drive under my mattress seems to bring me comfort.

I had one that broke. You need to back it up. Two flash drives under your mattress should do the trick.

Altcoins on excchanges, as its hard to download a wallet for every coin. However, I tend to now hold large amounts ever.


it might be a time consuming thing to get wallets for every alt, but it will be worth your time when an exchange dies.

And all your coins are lost because you didn't want to take the time to fix some wallets.


It depends how much they are worth. If I get a tiny amount from a giveaway that have little value then I risk leaving them on an exchange.

I use a standalone mini IBM laptop now.

It's rarely ever online, only goes on to sync and check market related websites like CoinWarz, Bitcoin Wisdom & others...

I don't trust paper wallets, might as well use paper money at that rate :/

No, fuck that noise, my electronic wallet's an entire Netbook... the wired, Windows 7 ones are rare as gold now.

Next best thing's a Trézor but I like mine to be internet ready and that can play crappy games.  Grin

Or you can use a rasperry pi ...

Correct. It's incredibly easy to set up, we have one for BALLS that can be used for the othe two coins, too: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-snowballs-one-more-hard-fork-to-balls-202-ballsmmxiv-market-open-843495

I definitely recommend them in addition to paper backups

Paper wallets are probably the safest . or you have Brain wallets but that require a good memory and you can forget the passphrase after some years , or month or weeks (depends on you)

I use blockchain recently.

Is paper or brain wallet compatible on android device ?
If there're exist, what the name of those wallet ?

Keep altcoin on exchanger doesn't secure forever.

best thing you can do is create a vm(windows/linux) and install light-weight(electrum) wallet and send your coins to that wallet. use that vm only for storing your coins don't use it for any other purpose. Cool

Hello,

Thanks for the help, I will consider everything I read important but I will remain at paper wallets.


The only things is... with paper wallet u have to be carefull with ur private key, couse if u lose it u would never get ur coins back.
Diferent wallets you dont worry about this, it has the Keys inside.
U only need to make a security copy...
U also could have the coins into an exchange if u want to trade with ur coins.

Best way to do it is in a wallet paper, there a few secure sites that generate the addresses for u!
I have a few bitcoins in an android wallet but the most of them are in paper (cold walket). Its more secure couse they are not online...
