Well actually I only use an online wallet for my BTC I really think it is secure enough to handle the situation at hand, you just need to learn to activate the F2P security that the site will provide for you, Well all the given security purpose for you, But if you surely want a more secure you need to go in an expensive wallet that is truly off line so you can be sure that it will be safe against hackers, But it will be sure prone to lost or your can misplace a certain wallet that have a size of a USB, So you need to be really careful about it.
Thanks you so much, you must have value experience for protect wallet , aren't you?

Hi All

What do you use for your bitcoin security, I have been looking into usb style password protectors, but don't know enough about them as to the trust that I should place in them.

Has anyone bought them and would you recommend them?

Many thanks

I personally only use an online wallet to store my Bitcoin, I think it's safe enough and it's still safe. But if the online wallet makes you worry about being broken by hackers you can use a hardware wallet service that is now widely available for crypto holders such as: Trezor or Ledzer Nano S, they will provide extra security for your Bitcoin.

For big amount of bitcoin then I suggest you to use hardware wallet with full sync client it's also help bitcoin security.just avoid to save your bitcoin in online wallet or exchange site for long term. Butonline wallet is the most practical to use. I currently use blockchain.info mobile wallet version. I usually makes easy transactions with it.

If you are saying about the bitcoin wallet, yes there is a security that we need to apply and to use it too.
We need to have a strong password, then private key,or phrase key words must be save as your backup wallet to avoid
hackers as well. And you can use electrum wallet, it has a an options in terms of security.

Comparative Bitcoin has good security compared to other currencies. and I now need to secure my wallet from hecker and those who want good intentions, because bitcoin always asks for the correct password and e-mail, so it's really safe.

Unless you publish your private key it is safe and secured. Bitcoin has good and strong security system itself & you will be able to keep it more secured by using a Hardware Wallet. Smiley

using a very good wallet like the hardware wallet is the best place to store your bitcoins. using an online wallet is okay but not as good as the ledger wallet that can be connected to your pc or laptops.

I secure my wallet by using the password provided by the server and some of the characters I added, and I never logged in with unknown sources from my machine.

Please Buy a Hardware Wallet

Those who are the least experienced are the most vulnerable so basically newbies or small time investors.  Most of us haven't experienced losing coins yet, either directly or through a friend.  We probably download stuff we don't need, leave our private keys in some email we had sent a while ago and probably leave our desktop wallets open a bit too long.  So we need to make sure our investments is protected.

We could always use a hardware wallet. Hardware wallets are a device that essentially store your private key on it so you can't be keylogged and requires you to input a password onto it, not your computer, before unlocking the wallet and withdrawing any coins.  It is quiet safe, its secure and only the person with possession of the hardware wallet can withdraw funds

Some Hardware wallets are
Ledger Nano S - https://www.amazon.com/Ledger-Nano-Cryptocurrency-Hardware-Wallet/dp/B01J66NF46/
KeepKey - https://www.amazon.com/KeepKey-Simple-Cryptocurrency-Hardware-Wallet/dp/B0143M2A5S/
Trezor - https://www.amazon.com/Satoshi-Labs-bitcoin-wallet-white/dp/B00P5HU80A/

There are different types of wallets are there to secure the bitcoin that investors can use to save their accounts and we all have to keep one thing in our mind that the passwords,private keys and the wallet address.P.C is always be on the save place and no one else know about them only this thing can help us to save our bitcoin account from  thieves and hackers.

Truly, there are different types of wallets to consider when choosing to keepsafe our bitcoins. Though a personal computer may sound the safest practically, there are still a lot of considerations to take and safety precautions to ensure that the computer is not prone from any possible hack or attack. And should one wish to keep their bitcoin in storage for a long time, a hardware wallet might prove to be a more viable option but should be well kept and safe guarded.

Bitcoin is a digital currency which is some codes on programming otherwise nothing. So, the security is matter. Nowadays even the best digital wallet also not fully secure. I have had some token in the Spectrocoin wallet but now the wallet is empty. So, using of a Ledger or Trezor may solve this security problem.

we all know that btc is number one cryptocurrency, and the security system also very strong enough.but we should always be aware of hackers, they may heal your data if you have weak password for your wallet,probably there is no chance of hack wallets now, because people are very smart.

I think bitcoin has good security system.Hacker are beside here to hacking our bitcoin from our wallet or many kind of exchange.Because they want to get bitcoin without any hard work.Hackers and scamers are provably target the exchange system to hack.we should don't use our wallet in a exchange for long time.If any one have to effort a hard ware wallet, that will be great.Otherwise they should keep there wallet and privet keys only his responsibilty,thank you.

the risk level of hacking is not on the bitcoin wallet, but on the exchange. on average most hackers target exchange as their target rather than an individual wallet.
well for me, the bitcoin wallet that we often use is also very safe from hacking because it has an online security system.

I use standard security for bitcoin wallets or exchanges.
The most important thing is that you should focus on avoiding malware, phishing, and viruses ... because all of that concerns your PC's health.

The security of the bitcoin is really great and it has the strongest security but you will need to ensure the security of your wallet where you will put your bitcoin. You will need to have strong password and you can also use 2FD verification for security purposes.

Bitcoin has a good security but there are many ways to make it more secure. Having good wallet like ledger will really to make more secure your bitcoin. In terms of security you should be careful so that no one can stealth your bitcoin.
