The list of potential hiding spots is as endless as your imagination. Ideally someplace with physical verification or security checkpoints. The reason not to store at your house is because as a general rule you will always be taken by surprise at your primary location.

Ah these exercises are too hypothetical and they just end in who can point out whose security deficiencies to flex on the other. I don't think there's many people that have a location out side of their home or bank they feel comfortable storing valuables. It's not a topic that gets discussed for obvious reasons, but I think it should.

Definitely not trying to “flex” on anyone and happy to talk in private about your specific situation.

Sorry, not accusing you of flexing. Just how I've seen these discussions go. I think 90 % of users that self custody are securing seeds in their home, and that can vary from bad to good. Eg. writing your seeds on a post-it note to stamping your seeds in stainless and hiding them away.

Mainly I think it depends on the expected value of your coins

Everyone’s situation is different. I hear what AH is saying, but personally I think for a bunch of people their house is the best place to stash their private keys (as long as they do it carefully/properly). 🧡
