I would like to have one. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of BTC to store though. I hope we get a hardware wallet that supports a number of altcoins.
The need for hardware wallets is very urgent for many cryptocurrency owners, because this will save and maintain the cryptocurrency security that we have. This device adds a layer of security if the computer is attacked by a virus that can steal private keys using a key logger. In addition this device also protects against fraud like fake nets that use phishing.

I have seen even some old dogs getting hacked because of their careless nature. It's not that hard to buy and store your cryptocurrencies on a hardware wallet and even if it is, it is for your own safety.
Wallet hacked possible using after hardware wallet really?  Now i heard from you because i have not heard of anyone before about this matter. Just using hardware that means you can not be absolutely sure it's safe because definitely safety is only your own responsibility i think.

Hardware wallet would be an advantage if are holding a profit waiting for it to be traded, for it is much secured rather than online wallet which is prone with hacking and scamming.

I think you recommend best 3 hardware wallet. Definitely Ladger Nano S is the most using wallet and buying from amazon. How i will find in other trusted sites without amazon, Keepkey is more than 75$ and Trezor price 79$ i think price difference is not a big thing but Trezor rating is good from keepkey.

I was thinking differently when reading this article. This is a good advice, I will try to buy a hardware wallet as soon as possible. Because it is completely useless if I make money, but can not keep it safe.

for personal purposes, indeed hardware wallet is the best choice, where we are given full control of the assets we store
how when we use the MyEtherwallet site or maybe even a wallet exchanger, there is a vulnerability that causes me to doubt where we don't know, is our private key controlled by anyone (?)

Most of us are here to invest. But what is the sense to it if our investments are not secure? $80 is nothing compared to the potential losses we will incur if we get hacked. A hardware wallet is the best security/safety measure we can get our hands on when dealing with crypto. There is really nothing to think about here...get one!

If u need to store large amounts of encrypted assets. you'd better buy a hardware wallet. it must be noted that you must purchase a new hardware wallet and u are best to buy it in its official channel. If u store some small assets, u can use a cold wallet, or a paper wallet.

maybe more hardware wallets are needed for investors, investors and big traders. for me as a bounty hunter, the web wallet is still an option, it doesn't require additional fees. assets that I can tend to sell immediately without hodl for too long. so security is entirely my responsibility during use. but wallet hardware remains the best choice for those who are able and willing to spend more money.


I know a couple of bounty hunters that already bought themselves a hardware wallet and even if they didnt have a large capital , they can always guarantee a high security from their assets .  plus , hardware wallets isnt expensive at all because there are now other generic brands that has the same security as the branded .

Online wallets on the other hand is also safe to use but as long as you bookmark them all the time because phishing sites are now the new modus of hackers these days .

Its so risky to buy hardware wallets in Amazon, Ebay. Why not buy from hardware wallets own sites. I heard theres a guy who lost all his crypto money when he tried to put his crypto from a tampered hardware wallet. The mafia behind this crime are stealing crypto from their hundred victims
wherever you buy it, make sure it's still properly sealed and I think security is still 100%, but indeed it's best to order on every official website. Hardwallet is the most important choice for large nominal storage and we must be aware of this. so far there have been no hardwallet cases that arise because of system loopholes, they have a high level of security with an effective maintenance system.

We need to secure and protect our assets and money from hackers who are always looking to steal our profits and information. So we should buy hardware wallet to make securing our assets. Trezor and Ledger nano s is well known in the market for hardware wallet so far I know so will buy one of them for protection.
Aside from hardware wallet, we could use open source wallet. As long as we could verify the funds through public code, we could assure that our funds are well safe and fix any potential vulnerabilities that will arise. Open source wallet like Hodler wallet give us tge private key and we do not need and trusted third party anymore. Knowing that we have full control of our funds without any intervention of any one, we are sure that our funds are safe same way as hardware wallet offers.

Totally agree with you.
You reported all information that each one has to know to chose using an hardware wallet.
Thanks
Never heard of HodLER wallet, thank you for the information. So far, I like it and didn't encountered any problem. Its good that I can store all the coins I prefer. Look like its just new, this will be for sure be big in the future, we need this kind of wallet.

having a hardware wallet can give you much more SECURITY rather than storing it on your wallets from these websites or application,
Yeah this is why hardware wallet was been introduce. The only problem with hardware wallet is that it is not for free and you have to buy it online as OP suggested. This is why starters will tend to use or store their bitcoin on websites like exchanges or application that could be vulnerable to hacking activities.


of  course hardware wallet are not free because the inventors of those wallets do take a lot of time to develop it , they also buy those cases and hardwares

. imo , hardware wallet is more of a collection item for a crypto hobyist  but if you think that you are already contented on the classic online wallets , then theres no need for you to upgrade on hardware one's as they will only cost more of your budget .

I'm planning to invest big in cryptos probably next year. For maximum security, i think is a far better option. I gonna delve much into this when I'm I have. Thanks for the share bud!

yes , hardware wallets are more suitable for big time investors like you as they can give you more extra security  . still , you might want to look for the best possible option because there are also fake or cloned hardware wallets these days .

A hardware wallet is an excellent idea, and it will keep your cryptocurrency safe in case of fire, theft or electrical outage. I move all Bitcoins purchased from exchanges into either my paper wallet or KeepKey.

If you want to be even more secure consider moving your Bitcoins into your IRA or 401k as well.
