I personally store most of my bitcoins in two wallets, one is on coins.ph wallet which is a web based wallet - I store some of my bitcoins there for spending and cashing out purposes; and the other one is on mycelium for holding purposes. I also use blockchain.info wallet but only for gambling purposes. I also want to have a hardware wallet (which I heard the safest one to store your BTC) but I don't know where can I buy it in our country Grin

I would love to have a hardware wallet too.
Apart from difficulty in buying it, the cost plays a role in deterring me from buying one.

I also forgot that part Cheesy

I'd like to have a trezor hardware wallet but it's kinda expensive to me Grin

$99 is a big amount here on a third world country but hopefully can buy it here on our country(from someone) when I can afford one

just coinbase,or you can use as you need. dont too worry about your bitcoin if you not linked with scam/suspicious website/startup.

Right now Im storing all my coins in different wallets preferrably in online wallets like COINBASE , XAPO , COINS.PH (for cashout purposes) , BLOCKCHAIN and Android Wallet Mycelium (I preferred to hold majority of my coins here). I know the risk of storing wallet in web based wallets but hey with the current bitcoin trend and development they are doing I think somehow they will not just crash in a matter of seconds as they will face legal term.

Core is still the best software for me. I like it because it's simple and im so paranoid about my Bitcoins that I only trust the Bitcoin Core wallet. I don't see a better way to store Bitcoins to be honest. You can just compress the wallet with SHA256 (which rar and 7z have) and put it anywhere.

I actually divide my bitcoins and store in different wallets to avoid loses in case of any thing goes wrong on one system. It is similar to diversifying our investment to avoid bigger loses. For every day use I will use XAPO account because of no fee and I feel it is quite safe in online wallets. Some stored in cold storage in my desktop and some in block-chain wallet.

I store my bitcoins in different systems, cold storage for my savings (paper wallet for long time storage). Mobile wallet for hot wallet , bitcoins that i can spend in short time. Another bitcoins in an exchange for trading. I think exchange is the most problematic we saw some big collapses in exchanges and stolen bitcoins. I try to have bitcoins on exchange only when i'm doing trading.

And i don't know how to operate Hardware wallets anyway Roll Eyes

hardware wallets (at least the main ones like Trezor, Case, Ledger) are very easy to operate, arguably easier than some software ones
I do think the prices should be lowered, but if you have more than a few btcs it's worth the investment

I usually store all of my coin in hot wallet (online wallet) as it is not quite big to store in cold storage for long run. I spend almost whatever i earn.

do you not afraid if the store in the wallet online ?
I fear first incident happen again as in mt gox Cry

well, if he is not using a huge ammount of bitcoins is not a bad idea at all, but as i sayd i will never use it to store most of my bitcoins.

Look if you bought the bitcoins for holding purposes say you strongly believe in bitcoin and think it will price will rise and want to keep them safe then you can either store your bitcoins in offline wallets or paper wallets for the best security but if you bought the bitcoins for gambling or buying or using them on day to day basis then just store them on blockchain.info wallet because it's the simplest and fastest bitcoin wallet
