I store my bitcoins on online wallet

For who keeping quite huge amount of bitcoin, better to prepare yourself to keep it into offline wallet.
As we know if online doesn't mean will last forever. There will be one day whenever something bad happen so we can backup and save our bitcoin

Yes I agree, use online wallet only to the value that is not too large or in the exchanger if you want to trade

If you want to save bitcoin safe, keep it in a cold wallet, there are many options, such as bitcoin core, electrum, multibit etc and save it only on your computer and then perform the backup.

You can use hot wallet if you want to use for the daily transactions that are not too big like blockchain, coinbase etc. Or store it in the exchanger, if you want to make trade.

Any suggestions on where a person who has already purchased bitcoins through Coinbase / circle should store them? I'm open to any suggestions from members. Thanks

Depends on how much you have.If you have less then 1 btc,keep it on your mobile wallet,desktop or even online would be easy.For larger amounts,cold storage is the best available option to date

Don't move and stay there where you are. Coinbase has its beginning as a wallet. Is a web wallet and that mean bitcoin when you want those and independently where you are. It was enough to have a smartphone or computer and internet. Then Coinbase paid your fee of the send of bitcoins. Your bitcoins there are super safe. Coinbase distribute 98% of all bitcoins deposited on it offline and geographically in safe deposit boxes and vaults around the world. And the last but not the less important Coinbase is insured against employee theft and hacking in an amount that exceeds the average value of online bitcoin it holds at any given time. Specifically, Coinbase's insurance policy would respond in the event that bitcoin stored in Coinbase was lost or stolen as a result of a breach of our physical security, cyber security, or as a result of employee theft.

Looking to get a Trezor or Keepkey in regard to using an online wallet for security purposes. I am looking to pick up one these sometime within the next month or two. The safest probably would be a paper wallet far from the reach of anyone beside yourself. I have a few coins stored this way.

Trezors are on sale today! It's Black Friday and they are giving great deals. Check out their website!

Thanks for mentioning. I like that black friday thing. Just need a safe way to store some BTC for later.

Why, in the block chain of course. But I keep it in a paper wallet laminated and hidden in a safe place--mostly out of reach of other people.

I have 2 hot wallets that I use on a regular basis and quite a few offline that haven't been touched for the longest part of 2 years.

I have a few online wallets and one desktop wallet. Mostly I won't store all my coins in a single online wallet because of safety so I distribute my coins in few different wallets and for everyday use I use XAPO wallet because transactions are quite fast and no transaction fee. For long term storage will be on desk top wallet.
