do you think the clever criminal sits in his poor neighborhood? or does dress up and go to where there is actually something to steal ?

I get your point about not being able to hide it, but look at the big BTC wallets... worth millions yet if their online everyone can see them. of course offline is always the safest.

I am curious to see if there is "paper wallets" of some sort or a way to store them offline.

But in all honesty my banks website only allows for 8 digit security... so half as secure as your steemit account ;)
