So where do you keep your BTC /biz/ ? Pic related:

Don't trust others with your money, that defeats the object of bitcoin in the first place.

A magnet/electromagnet and you are done. If you won't be moving your funds for a long time, write down your private keys, make a couple of copies and save that pieces of paper safely.

Just burn it on a M-Disk. Hard drives randomly corrupt files after a while.

Why? Why the hell?

To answer your question, I use a paper wallet that I created offline and then wrote on a piece of paper by hand to avoid it going through the printer memory

is there a way to check the balance of a paper wallet without adding it to another wallet first?

Enjoy your zero bitcoins whilst I'm driving my ferraghini on jupiter.

Yeah, you can check a balance just by looking up the public address on a blockchain, since Bitcoin is a public blockchain. Public addresses are no-risk but still tell you the balance, remember?

Now to spend from it, you need to upload it and that destroys the security so you have to make a new one again.

Once in my aspie life, I created some kind of encryption. Not normal one it's more like a chaotic patten of symbols and numbers and letters.
Not for a. Computer I can draw it on a piece of paper which will take some time.

I don't think it is hackable since it has no real patter. Every letter i encrypt has a pattern but every pattern is different.
I can even write some easy to decrypt phrases in it like a second layer information.
The whole fuck is only decryptable if someone know they key pattern and how to use it.

I think I finnaly found a use case for this shit. My private key is safe.

called storage of course - 3 wallets with 3 copies of each+ paper. stored in 2 different safety deposit boxes in 2 different banks.

they can only be plugged in a clean mac that runs a virtual machine.
dunno if this is an overkill or not. would like to hear your recommendations.

Too much work. Just have it saved on your phone app. Keep the private phrase on a notepad folder on your USB
