Just resteemed for my followers. Just like @bobaphet I only have steem. I wish we could do the same here on steem with our liquid holdings. But as far as I know there's no offline wallet beside the one we have here.

This is not quite right. And there is no need to retrieve STEEM Private KEYS, as they all supposed to be ALWAYS under users control anyway. In fact, we all here on Steemit have FIVE different level private keys: MASTER KEY, OWNER key, MEMO key, ACTIVE key and POSTING key. From which only the last one, (or at most - the last two) should be on a "hot" computer, or smartphone or tablet. Keep the first two keys ( MASTER and OWNER) offline, on paper, in a mem flash etc etc, and you have a Steem's HARDWARE WALLET. Because your will need them only IF you have to retrieve stolen account, or want to change all keys, or smth like that.
There is even PAPER WALLET available for STEEM. You can get the latest version from here:
https://github.com/xeroc/steem-paperwallet/releases/tag/0.5.0
Download that ZIP, unpack on a clean & secure PC, and run the index.html file in any browser, while offline. Run from a local disk or USB flash (1)
Enter your steemit ID(2), your MASTER password(3), and you get all the other public and private keys you may ever need (4 to 7). See all here:
Once created, you can print them with one click. So easy & clever.
BTW, almost all the same you can do online, on steemworld.org
But as the general rule, I would not recommend anyone to do things like this while online
Again - the most important is your MASTER password . Never never ever (!!!) use it online, nor keep it in you device which can be accessed (even time to time) from Internet. This is the KEY of your vault. From all your STEEM and/or SBD. Even if you only may have a few dozens of them, one day they may be worth THOUSANDS. Many thousands.
I read another day a great quote:
In crypto's you not only become your own bank - you must also be our own police, your own security guard, own army/soldier, own doctor, own judge and own lawyer.
And this is all so much TRUE.
thanks so very much for your explanation @onealfa. I've been over 2 years here and only now I clearly understand what you just took the time to explain. Thanks for taking me out of my ignorance in this matter.
May we all have a great 2019.
Cheers
