Topic: Best hardware wallet for storing ETH (Read 520 times)
As far as I know the only wallet that has proven its security is the Ledger Nano wallet. I do not know how much does it cost, but I think it was always the best alternative in hardware wallet market. But I may be wrong.
If I better save ethereum in a market. Not lazy also for the long or short term. Because our goal is for the long term. Of course saving in the market is also not a problem. And certainly very safe if I personally do that.
What hardware wallet do you recommend to get for storing ETH long term?
Best but unreleased - HODL by Universa, it looks absolutely amazing with the OLED screen.But right now - definitely go for a ledger wallet, I have my disappointments with it, but none of them are related to security.
I do not think that there are 100% guaranteed wallets that can guarantee that your funds are protected, today there is no such thing, if you hear about this, then forget that this is true. This is 100% not true!
Of course Trezor and Nano Ledger are the best for hardware wallets but now you can use the hardware wallet on android made by myetherwallet the apps name is MEWconnect.
I would advise you a standalone wallet that will be located on your computer. It is much safer than keeping your cryptocurrency on the wallet which is online. But if you have volumes of not big than you not be satisfied with MEta Mask or MEW?
if I myself use the MEW wallet first because there hasn't been a lost asset from now until now, because this security wallet is very good for protecting our assets 
I've been in the cryptos for a time and according to my experience most of the users who wants to use hardware wallet to store their ETH is using Nano Ledger and Trezor but for some people are having a hard time buying this product since it's a little expensive (but if you really want to secure your funds then you should invest to this kind of devices) and there are some alternatives for this hardware wallets and this is a paper wallet where in your private keys are written in a piece of paper but the disadvantages of this is when the paper wallet was lost or damaged you won't have any access to your wallet again.

Why do you choose to using hardwallet ? Hard wallet is not free and you have to buy it.
I think it will be either Trezor or Ledger s Nano. It will be more safe if you using hard wallet than using web wallet.
But it will be easier if you just using Metamask and save your private key in somewhere safe place.
Ethereum is one of the potential coins in the crypto market. Currently, the 3rd largest cryptocurrency in the market capitalization. Even though the crypto market has seen a downside towards the ending of 2018, Ethereum is going to take an upward surge in the coming year.

My recommendation will be Ledger or Trezor hardware wallet, you can get one for less than $100 if you go for the basic model (which is good enough). However, buy from the official website because there are cases of hardware wallet from Ebay or other resellers being comprised.
There is not much hardware wallets to choose from. I know only about Ledger Nano and Trezor. Both supports Ethereum and all ERC-20 tokens.
But you do not have to spend money for hardware wallet, MyEtherWallet released the app which could replace hardware wallet

Paper wallets are the safest alternative to hardware wallet in my opinion. No need to waste your time and money for buying new hardware wallet if you don't have huge amounts of cryptocurrencies. Writing the private keys to the paper wallet is enough to protect your balance.
Paper wallet's safety is (a bit) under Hardware Wallet's. And paper wallet is good only for accumulating and long term holding.
The safer than paper wallet option is air-gapped cold storage.
Edit: don't get me wrong, I like the paper wallets very much, they are safe (if you do the correct steps) and cheap. But let's tell people the correct info, as much as possible.

There are many hardware wallet for storing ethereum. Some of these hardware wallets are ledger, trezor, myetherwallet and offline hardware wallet but I prefer to use ledger because its the best. I have been using this wallet for a year now and its the best I must say.
The best one is Trezor and hardware wallet by blockchain.info. Both hardware wallets are useful for storing the ETH and feeling secure about your stored coins.
What hardware wallet do you recommend to get for storing ETH long term?
I will vote for trezor and that never get any hacked cases, i don't recommend you to use ledger wallet because so many people have experienced that about a lot of hacked cases were happened in ledger wallet and it's not a recommended wallet to buy.Could you please provide only one confirmed case of a Ledger Wallet being hacked?
I doubt it.

If you don't trust the Ledger wallet I'd just go for the Trezor otherwise feel free to get yourself a Ledger Nano S or if you need Bluetooth you could also check out the Ledger Nano X (also got more storage but is double the price of the Nano S).
Ledger nano is the best. I have been using it for about two years now and I grade it high for its high security, ease of use. I have introduced a lot of friends to it as well and they are pleased
I have been using offline hardware wallet for sometime now but I think there are other good hardware wallets like trezor and nano ledger. These are also great wallets. MyEtherWallet is no exemption.

There are many hardware wallet you can use in storing your ETH, you can check for some that has already been listed in the forum by using the search box to check for already created topic as this, though the once I can recommend for you is TREZOR, Ledger Nano S.I can recommend these two to anyone not because I think they are the best but because I believe they have been for a long while and they are very much trusted to use than trying to make use of newer released hardware wallet, though it's your choice to make.
