Hey guys sorry, forgot to check in here for a couple days, updating the post now saying I got paid, I updated the title but guess that wasn’t enough!
Thank you for taking the time to update the OP and editing the title. This will be helpful for members who are not obsessed with reading all the replies, like me
- Invested in crypto. Bought a variety of diff cryptos on a fresh wallet. Wrote down the private keys and put it in my safe. And deleted the wallet from my computer.
You did the right thing by investing your money in cryptos. Most gamblers would just spend the money on gambling till they lose it all.
Regarding the wallet, since we are talking about a big amount of money and you are planning to hold the coins for a long time, I advice you to buy a hardware wallet. It's safer.
You are right, hardware wallet is safer but I see no difference from what he did, in-fact, I think if I was him, I would have also done the same, that is, that is create new wallets, have the private keys written down and stored in a safe place, buy cryptos I want and move them to the wallet, and after I am done, I will delete the wallet from my pc or phone, which ever device I had the wallet on, its better for me that way as it will help me forget those that crypto I bought really fast, but having it stored on a hardware wallet, and me seeing that hardware wallet everyday will cause me to constantly want to check on the prices of those crypto in the market, and one day, I might even be tempted to want to move and trade them.
So for me, I think what OP did is much better.
