For everyday use, bitcoin is convenient and safe. As long as you
use a main wallet, be it online or offline, and pick a strong
password you should feel as safe using it as you are of carrying
cash in your real wallet.
If you own a large amount of bitcoins, you should consider
stronger safety measures. Regular users should also educate
themselves on safety, as it is likely that hackers will get more
sophisticated over the coming years.
