Topic: Bitcoin Core Wallet and Ethereum Wallet (Read 387 times)
Yup, you are as long as you're not tempted to visit sites that can inject spyware and keyloggers in your machine while you're busy browsing and reading. Also, antivirus isn't really needed but it's better to be safe than sorry. And AFAIK there are no conflicts between ETH and Core wallet so you should be good.
Hello everyone,
I will be simple and straight-forward:
Is it safe to keep Bitcoin Core Wallet (https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/linux/bitcoincore/) and Ethereum Wallet on the same desktop computer (which is at-home, behind a router and solely used by me) ?
The computer should be pretty secure, as I am aware of methods to protect it (fresh os install, no other app instalation, installing an antivirus, using linux, updating regularly, etc).
It will be running the latest LTE Ubuntu.
Thank you.

LTE ? Never heard about it. It is LTS (Long Term Support) that you wanted to say I think. I didn't even know antivirus exist for GNU/Linux OS. There is no problem to have Bitcoin Core and Ethereum wallet on the same OS. The best is to use a computer dedicated only for your wallets. If you use it for browsing you can disable Javascript in your browser to add a little more security. Avoid using the root account as well.
