2)Atomic Wallet is a new multi-asset, with an actively growing user base
3)Nano Ledger S is just as secure as the other two hardware wallets. It is popular because its low price of $65 when compared to its competitors price
4)Trezor is one of the best harware wallet this the leading hardware wallet compare to other competitors

if we ignore our precautions that "i have a secured wallet" then we can lose our coins too we must be careful with secured wallets also 

Hi there! I'm using Coinomi multi-wallet for years now, great & secure solution to store crypto. BTC

thanks for your information and well suggestions.......

For your kind attention transaction fees doesn't depend on wallets. There are so many wallets in the crypto market the most secured wallet so far I know that is none other than hardware wallet. For the best security, you can buy Ledger nano s or trezor both is good but a little bit costly.

Transaction fees are always accountable if you do send crypto currency.

Some wallets have a predefinied cost, some ask you the speed in which you want the receiver to have their funds.

Everytime you send a transaction you have to pay transaction fees. It doesn't matter if it's a hardware, web or desktop wallet. If it's moving from an address to another, there will be fees.

any transaction fee in hardware wallet ??

I also recommend hardware wallet, if you have some money and need to protect it then a hardware wallet will be best choice in my opinion. I have one ledger nano s and i not have any problem in 10 months after i start using it.

Well, in fact, this is a very important question for all crypto users. First of all bro transaction fees doesn't require for wallet security second of all there is the various type of wallets in the market but I would love to suggest you hardware wallet this is wonderful to provide the best security so collect this for higher security.

I agree with you. hardware wallets are small computers or smartcards built with the sole purpose of generating bitcoin private keys offline. Hardware wallet securely signs transactions in the same offline environment. However, There are three main brands that are very popular among crypto owners. These are Ledger, Trezor, Keep key.

If you click on a clipboard virus or scam code, it will change your destination address when you send funds. So it doesnt matter if you send from a hardware/software wallet, you still will need to enter a destination address which the code can change.

Depends on your wallet.

Hardware wallet: No.
Software wallet: Yes.
Web wallet: Yes.


Clicking on unknown links can be quite dangerous. Especially if you don't run the latest version of your browser/OS/AV etc..

The most dangerous thing which can happen is that visiting the site initiates a drive-by-download. This will compromise your system.
And if your system is compromised, any software running on it is compromised.

The only way a wallet would not be compromised is either (1) its a hardware wallet or (2) your wallet file is encrypted (e.g. electrum/core password) AND you don't open the wallet while your PC is compromised.

The probability of your web wallet being compromised is very high by visiting a malicious website.

if we clicked a link in any one social media , is there will be any chances to hack our wallet ??

well , thanks for the information..

Several things can theoretically happen

1) A keylogger can be installed and read all your keypresses
2) A javascript can be launched, which might steal your login credentials
3) A malicious software can be ran in background and wait for you to send cryptocurrency, it will try to change the receiver address
4) You can initiate a ransomware virus which will encrypt your drive and extort money from you

SO, just dont click on any link you have no idea where its from (even on telegram)

if we unfortunately clicked on a spam link , what will happens

both systems can be hacked if you use them unwisely. If you click on a spam link or install a javascript in your browser, it doesnt matter if you have linux or windows or osx (mac). Historically Mac's has been the most secure operating systems but to be true secure use a cold storage wallet like Nano Ledger or create a paper wallet.

Cryptocurrency is like real money, if you loose it, its very hard to claim it back.

About the only benefit that blockchain.com wallet has... is that it is "easy" and requires very little thought or responsibility. Personally, I would not recommend it. They've had a history of being very buggy. They have an "in wallet" coin exchange... albeit at very poor rates.

Electrum is a lightweight, "SPV" (Simple Payment Verification) wallet... as such, it is quick... doesn't require downloading the entire blockchain, so on disk storage requirements are very low. It offers a 12 word seed mnemonic based backup system (NOT BIP39 compatiable, but similar... it can restore a BIP39 compatible seed)... it has an active dev team that are always seeking to improve the app... it supports some of the more popular hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor... it offers MultiSig functionality... it can be used in an offline/online (aka "airgapped") cold storage setup... it's multi platform (Windows, Linux, OSX and Android)... it supports pretty much every wallet address type... Legacy, P2SH SegWit and Native SegWit (bech32)... it offers a lot of flexibility and customisation of transaction fees, "coin control" features etc.

On the downside, you potentially give up some privacy as you have to connect to Electrum servers to request transaction info... also, the non BIP39 compatible backup could be problematic if you decide you want to use another app... AFAIK, no other wallets are compatible with Electrum seeds.

If you want my recommendation... Electrum.

what are the benefits of electrum wallet and blockchain wallet ??
