Hardware wallets are safe, but if all security rules are not followed, the hardware purse may be compromised

What security rules? are there any other security rules other than using your hardware wallet, keeping your private keys on your own?
And writing down the keys on a piece of paper and never on any internet connected spreadsheet/storage?

I agree. The safest wallets of course are hard wallets. This will insulate the wallet from illegal activities online, such as hacking, that might compromise the wallet's safety. But we need to realize also that if we use our coins for trading, it is expected that we are also saving some good amount in exchange wallets. Coins stored in hardware wallets are good as sleeping.

nither hardware no online wallets not 100% safe. both might be hacked if owner will not observe simply rules of their safty using.

Then in this case it will not be possible to call it a burglary, because the mistake was made by the owner of the wallet.
Cold wallets are the most hack-resistant wallets at the moment.

because the wallet per lift hard separates the private key from devices connected to the internet. Your assets are practically safe from threats such as fraud and hacking, but return to the user to keep their wallet from all possibilities.

Hardware wallet is the safest way to protect your coins from hacker and more safe than web wallet. No one can access that wallet other then the holder of it. I am using trazor hardware wallet to safe my coins.

Hardware wallet is the safest place to store crypto at the moment. There is no way to steal info about your Private Key if the wallet is kept offlince, so if you are a long term holder, just sent your funds to a hardware wallet and forget about them.

Yes, hardware wallets are the safest and most secure because you are in charge at all times. I think it is the praticality of decentralization in real life. Also, with hardware wallets being offline, you don't need to bother about any security threat at all.

As far as i know hardware wallet is most safe crypto wallet, But it also most unecassarly thing, because I think offline wallet is already safe enough for current attack possibility or current threat unless the attacker using quantum computer to steal your money which is not gonna happen unless you have that much money to pay their bill.

Hardware wallets are totally safe as there is no risk of hacking. All the crypto currency and bounty tokens are stored in this wallet can be used for trading as per the owner's wil.

hardware wallet is the safest way to store cryptocurrency.. as long as you keep your seed in safe place no one can take your crypto

this is the most important point in the second post directly! often the wallets are in good hands and the
seed is placed on the pc or sticks with a post-it somewhere. unfortunately this is exactly the wrong way round Cool

As long as I can tell, hardware wallet has always been the safest way to store your funds offline without the fear being hacked. Some software wallet like imtoken, trust wallet and it's likes are ok too only if you store your private key or mnemonic words and keep them safe

I find that if someone is a long-term investor, use a cold wallet to store his property. As for me, most investments are short-term and medium-term, I only use the mobile wallet to hold my coin because they help to deposit coin to exchange quickly.

Of course, the presence of a hardware wallet provides great opportunities for the security of your funds, but you just need to remember that you create this security personally by performing certain tasks. But the most important thing is to buy a hardware wallet from the manufacturer, and never buy a hardware wallet that was already in use.

Yes, the hardware wallet is very safe because it is not connected to the internet directly, and of course to buy hardware wallet requires a large fee. So, if you don't have capital, I think you can use a wallet provider service like MEW.

Everyone is expected to have hardware wallets, because it is the most secured. Those who have valuable coins ought to have it in order to avoid being scammed.
It stands out among others and gives the owner confidence at any time.

Nothing is safe in this world. I saw some post about hardware wallet where it can be also hacked. But if you talk about security then hardware wallets are the safest anosng all kind of wallet available in the market. Cause hardware wallet is not connected to anywhere and it's worked as a physical waleet disconnected all the time form everywhere. So I always recommend if you got some extra bucks always invest in a hardware wallet if it's possible.

You're really right. Today hardware wallet is the most affordable and secure way to store your cryptocurrency, recommend!

i use ledger nano s from 2017 and i never have any issue with my ledger
in my opinion a hardware wallet is the safest wallet to store our cryptocurrency for now

That's the best place to store our coin with more security features. I used trezor and never got any problem. i can store multiple coins at the same wallets and used the hardware itself as a key to log in into my wallet that synched with the official wallet that already supported by trezor and so far the best wallet in my life.

Hardware wallets are safer than software wallets considering the risk involved. Scammers/hackers might easily steal information when you copy your private key to browser for instance, but that's not possible with hardware wallets. My best pick is ledger nano. Trezor is also another good brand you can try.

Yes, hardware wallet are safe, it's the safest wallet but you need to be careful with your seed, in a scenario where it got damaged your seed will be required to recover your assets.
