Oddly enough, mine are pretty evenly distributed among a variety of offline storage methods, so I can't really give any one place where the majority are kept.

But my primary *preference* is Mycelium, both for spending wallets and for cold storage on dedicated phones (with Mycelium-generated paper backups.) It's just that good.

I see armory has an early lead.  Why do it there instead of qt?  What are the advantages?  I just have it on qt and never had a problem, except that I think the fees are too high.

The main reason I use Armory is for "coin control" and paper wallets. QT doesn't let me chose which address to send BTC from nor support paper backups.

I'm using blockchain.info for now but I plan to transfer 90% of my bitcoins in a paperwallet. I also have a small amount in cavirtex to do some transactions. I can sell them for CAD and transfer them in my cavirtex debit card to pay for anything I want! Smiley

I wonder how many of the people who voted "Offline Cold Storage" are using Armory, and how many are using other tools.

I'd use Armoury or the original wallet and store any large amount of coins offline, plus if I had that kind of money to worry about I'd also buy some gold bullion to store offline because that definitely can't be hacked, it can be stolen though but that's a whole other thing Tongue.

Paper wallet Smiley I have the rest on exchanges, physical bitcoins, and electrum.

I plan on moving some to an offline armory wallet but i'm comfortable with this for now.  Smiley

"physical bitcoins"?

I'm just trying to imagine what cryptonium looks like. Wink

I know it's "bad" but I store *all* my coins in a single brainwallet address.

Although I use several brainwallets.

Wasn't aware of Brainwallet ..seems kinda risky to me but added it to the poll ..better not have a brainfart using this one haha  Grin

that dudes who store them ONLINE should think agian.  Roll Eyes

They probably use blockchain.info which is used by a lot of people and has quite a lot of security features.

yeah maybe but would you store the majority of your BTC there? i would never do that but good luck!

The poll didn't even separate offline and online!

How the hell did he separate armory offline and online
He's trolling us with that pie

Definitely. For Armory (both online and offline), I don't even think that they have 100,000 wallets, while Blockchain.info is having more than 1 million active wallets.

This is just BS. You are saying that 97% of all the BTCs are stored in Armory, which was unheard of two months earlier. And just 1% for Blockchain.info?

Huh

Where does his chart say that he is reporting network totals?

I assumed he was reporting his own usage?

Are you sure you haven't all jumped to a ridiculous conclusion without paying attention?
 
How did you get this information Huh

Probably by adding up his bitcoins to see how much he was storing in each location?

90% of them in offline storage. The remaining 10% is distributed in Blockchain.info, BTC-E, Mobile wallet & even some in BTC-QT.
