Google mail is the best way to hide your wallet, and the best way to look up when you needed it, keep on mind that the email you use to keep your Bitcoin password private like don't use it to make accounts on different sites since email is hackable also, but simple safety can avoid it.

Certainly, the best and safetiest way of storing  the private key  is to put only in your mind. In this way you can surely protect and secure your private key. Only you should know this, you can't misplace it and no one can stall it. Probably  you can also store it into the place and/or in the things that very important and memorable to you. Therefore , you could easily remember where you storing i
So you think senile dementia is a myth right? You can be a little bit tactical and say you keep the private keys in your pocket too. How about that? It doesn't sound wise right? That's how your point sounds too. No disrespect here. I am just trying to say people easily forget with time.

Hello guys!

I wanna hear your opinions about that.
Where do you keep your private keys? In a safe? In your pocket? In your mind??

My private keys are just in the drawer as if they were worth nothing lol

I was thinking about buying a safe, but I think that big, so hard to hide, and just to store one piece of paper?

Give me ideas please =D


too dramatic, you can keep it anywhere that you think is safe. you can save on flasdist or something. not as complicated as you say ..

I keep the private key on my hard disk because I think the most secure I keep there when the device is damaged disk can still read its contents so I think the assets you have still safe.

You're overthinking it, you can be successfully storing your private keys by putting them onto a USB (or a few USBs) and them putting that USB into a small, fireproof safe, and maybe making a couple copies of that USB and storing them in other locations as well. Write it down on some paper if you think there's a real risk of someone trying to snake your information with a virus or whatever. There's no harm in doing something like that and having multiple backups is the best thing you can do since it's all gone if you can't get the information back.

I totally agree with your opinion. Saving in some safe places is one way for private key security. And writing on a piece of paper and stored in a safe place, in my opinion is a very appropriate way to maintain the security of a private key. Because the private key is something very important. And if we lose it, no one can take responsibility for all our losses.

I keep my private keys on my laptop, Messenger, and email.
I made a note on my laptop and save my private. I also gave my private key to my Girlfriend, so just in case something bad happens to me, she knows how to access my account. and I also sent to my own email. and I made a hard-copy of my private key and store it in my cabinet.

The safest place to save your private keys is in your own mind ofcourse, but it also has risk to forgot since the words and number combinations is hard to remember.
But you can also write it down in a piece of paper, and save it on your room, or some place that you can remember but still safe.

lol, i know why you stored your private key on the drawer. is it because your wallet is empty ? Grin
if you have 10++ BTC in your wallet, would you do the same ? if i have large amount if bitcoin, i would stored it in the safe box !

Private is a sensitive number that must be kept jealously, it can make you loose all in your investment if you forget where you kept it or yo expose it to an unknown individual or un-trusted friend. its safe to keep your private key to yourself by memorizing it if its possible or save it somewhere in your room

To save your private key anywhere as long as offline is the best way through wallet papers. You can keep it in a safe place, should only be known by yourself. The printed key informs you via QR code that can be scanned at any time for your future transactions. Cool
Saving our private keys is very important that it should be secured. We have offline and I save it in a nano ledger wallet m. With this I can say it is secured just save the phrase.

I personally believe private keys are best kept on papers (in printed) and backed up on a flash drive that never connects to the internet.

I guess it would be best to store private keys in your mind, like mentioned, but thats nearly impossibel,at least to me so just write it down - on paper not digital- if you think you need to buy a safe (in case of fire or robbing) to safe your money, then buy one! If it is worth the value, otherwise store a backup at a persons you really trust.
Or rent a safe at a bank..
Storing your private key or your seed words in a safe at a bank it is the same as having your money in the bank, maybe they do not have control of the money directly but technically the only way that you can access that money is through the bank because it's there, also in many countries it is legal for governments to check the contents that people store in a safe of a bank without any kind of court order, so someone could steal your bitcoin and cryptocurrencies very easily if you do that.

Keeping your private key in secured and safe place is necessary.However, don't be too scared in your storage that someone may steal it.If you will just keep your private key in your phone with password then it is safe.
