[now spoilers, in case you haven't read yet]
the point to the story in this thread is, even a hardware wallet can have vulnerabilities. It's still very safe, as the glitch was fixed in the following Trezor update, and anyway it required the hacker to have physical access to the wallet. But they're not perfect.
So you you want to be really paranoid, use 2 wallets from different brands and put half of your coins in each. Since the softwares are independently developed, it's unlikely that both would be compromised at the same time
and use a fireproof safe for the seeds

I use bitcoiner.
For me the best wallet is Blockchain. I using only this one and i can really recommend it for you. Perfect for newbies because is ease to use and has small fees
Hardware wallet for sure. I am having Nano S Ledger, it’s perfect.
Any amount that you really don't want to lose you should store on a hardware wallet. I recommend trezor.
Any wallets are only as safe as you are. I would usually recommend keeping coins offline...
How can you keep offline your coins???
Since you have a public addr you can't hide it...
Where am I wrong?
What is the best and safe wallet?
Myetherwallet is best.
hi, so i have 'x' number of bytecoins online. How do i save them to a desktop wallet or hardware wallet and does the wallet have to support that coin. if yes.. do i have to exchange the bytecoins to another currency say Ethereum in the case of trezor h/w wallet? and then save them to the wallet.
cheers

Paper wallet is probably the safest one but it's only good if you want to store your coins for a long time. After that comes all the hardware wallets, personally I use a ledger nano s. If you don't want to pay for a hardware wallet then check out Jaxx or Exodus.
Imtoken and MEW are doing fantastic and safe
Paper wallet, Hardware wallet-KeepKey, Software wallet-Jaxx
Sorry, some one experienced player here can explain me "Dekstop wallet"
Where it is locked to?

You have a choice of several that are safe. Here are a few of which you have to choose from. Trezor and Nano Ledger S are hardware wallets and are worth a certain amount. The Trezor is priced at 99 $ and Nano Ledger S 65 $. Then there are free wallets like Electrum, Coinbase, Jaxx and MyEtherWallet. For me there is a Trezor and I use MyEtherWallet.
I see the Trezor and ledger are swelling way above the MSRP. Any idea where they go for at the above prices,
? Thank you
Put electrum on a portable support (USB) , write down your seed on several piece of paper, remember it in your brain and you'll be fine. It is very safe and also very reliable to use.

Nothing is better than paper wallets. But Ledger and Trezor are good.
electroneum maybe the best. blockchain also good to save your crypto. indeed, every wallet has various security, MEW secured by private key only. it is good to save your token and ETH. but, dont lose your private key, moreover to give it to another. you will lost everything that you put on your wallet.
What is the best and safe wallet?
I suggest wallet that you hold your private keys. I use Coinomi for coins and myetherwallet for erc20 coins. You can also try other wallets they suggest and it's up to you what wallet is easy to use for you.
my ether wallet
jaxx for all
for me

Ledger Nano S is a very good coin and it let you hold you private keys. Also trezor is a very good one too.
