If your capital amount is high then you can use hardware wallet and if the amount of money is small then you can use trust wallet, coinbase, myetherwallet.

Looks like this is the best for you. LIST Multicoin Open Source Wallets

Wallets for Bitcoin and Liquid assets L-USDT and L-BTC:

Creating separate Bitcoin wallets and Altcoin wallets is also a good option. Because I prefer Electrum for storing BTC, while for storing altcoins, I put it in one multi coin wallet. What you need to pay attention to when choosing a wallet is that you have to download it from a trusted source, because there are lots of fake and phishing applications circulating on the internet or social media. So, be careful and always verify the application repeatedly.

As a newbie, I was also confused about the same thing when I read about the possible options. Currently, I am using Trust Wallet and Metamask. I have also read about Electrium, but for me, Trust Wallet is easy to use.

Personally all wallets are safe for me if i can keep the private key and password of your wallet confidential. There are many wallets which are all good but exchange wallet is not very convenient. If you want to save big money then avoid exchange wallet. If your capital amount is high then you can use hardware wallet and if the amount of money is small then you can use trust wallet, coinbase, myetherwallet.

I personally use trust wallet to store altcoins and electrum for btc. Regarding security and the possibility of being hacked, I think the application is very good, there are layers of security and I think it is quite difficult for hackers to penetrate it. The security problem is actually the user's own negligence, such as entering PK on a scam website, claiming random tokens so that the wallet gets drained, swapping tokens in the middle of nowhere and so on. So in the end, wallet security is completely in your hands, hackers take advantage of your negligence to upgrade your knowledge about data security so that your assets remain safe.

As a newbie which wallet i can use and will that wallet support bitcoin and other altcoins? I know some wallet names like Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, MyEtherWallet but as a newbie which wallet can I use to keep my assets safe. I have heard a lot of people using trust wallets. How trust wallet is reliable for holding bitcoins and other altcoins? How likely is it to be hacked?

I think Trustwallet is quite trustworthy and safe. So far I have never heard of any hacking on Trustwallet except hacking due to human error such as leaking of the 12 digit phrase provided by them. I agree with the idea of separating your altcoins and your bitcoins and Trustwallet can create multiple wallets. You can store your Bitcoins in wallet A and your altcoins in wallet B. This is quite practical in my opinion. And this is enough for "beginners" as you mentioned at the beginning of the thread.

I give you a small suggestion that you keep your bitcoins in one wallet and your altcoins in another wallet maybe that's best for you. But it is purely your personal matter.

You can keep your altcoins in trust wallet and you can keep youryour bitcoins in Electrum wallet.

How likely is it to be hacked?

If you are using Trust Wallet then you will surely see that there is a phase of 12 digits while creating the wallet. You need to keep this 12 digit phase safe to keep your wallet safe. If you lose that 12 digit phase and your account is accidentally logged out then you will not be able to login to your account again i.e. your account will be lost. So it is said that, Not your key is not your token.

Trust Wallet is a Non Custodial wallet but is it not much safer. if you want your best security for your asset specially for bitcoin then. you can use electrum wallet. which is very secure. But if you want to deposit a small amount of assets and know how to receive different types of tokens there, you can use Trust Wallet. Because you can support all types of blockchain tokens in Trust Wallet. It is token friendly.

Even for smaller amount of coins I’m still very much against that having different kind of crypto both Bitcoin and other crypto on the same wallet because if the wallet is affected by any form of hack as a result of airdrop or any form of activities that can result to stolen of funds everything in that wallet will be affected.

I do recommend same bitcoin wallet that you do and Metamask wallet for Altcoins so that bitcoin can be on separate wallets why Altcoin on other wallets, you don’t need to connect bitcoin wallet to any dapp as as result of claiming anything such is not common on bitcoin.

Often newbie asks about the security of wallet (software), even though maintaining a private key security is also very important. The software mentioned above such as trust wallet, and other cryptocurrency wallets are commonly used by crypto asset users but have certain risks and dangers. Although Wallet Software applies strong security measures, there is no system that fully limits hacking. Then you must be careful of phishing sites and fraud that can deceive you to reveal information on your wallet.

The most important thing is to maintain a private key security, if you lose access to a personal key or recovery phrase, you can lose access to your assets permanently. The idea of storing Bitcoin in a separate wallet from Altcoins also needs to be pursued to increase asset security, maybe Electrum is the right choice for storing your Bitcoin.

Non custodial wallet is the safest and as you want to have bitcoin and other altcoin together, you need to use a multi wallet. If you are a PC user then rabby wallet extention works fine. This extension is way better than a metamask and in here you can store all the EVM based token but you cannot store bitcoin. Exodus can be used to store bitcoin and major altcoin from the market and they have some useful features that can be really helpful for a newbie. Not sure you can afford hardware wallet or not thats why didn't bother to mention any.

I don't think it's a good idea to use Trust Wallet for Bitcoin. Yes, it can be added there but you can't swap it there on a DApp. So, what's the use? Well, that's in addition to what people say about TW being a closed source app and could be easily manipulated.

I will advise you to use a separate wallet for storing your bitcoin and a separate wallet for your altcoins.

It's most advisable to use separate wallets for Bitcoin and altcoins...

From where I stand, the reason I support this is because gathering Bitcoin in crypto wallets that support alts which can be swapped in interaction with scam sites on DApps can be easily compromised and the wallets wiped off. If that happens, that means everything in that wallet is gone. Bitcoin should be treated differently in single wallet to minimize such an incident. Electrum is great but I think it's a bit confusing to use for beginners. Anyone downloading it should be sure to get it from its official site and link to Playstore or IOS. There are many fake electrum wallet apps out there. Bluewallet is ok too but I don't know why people hardly talk about it.

There are many Dex wallet to use in storing bitcoin and altcoin apart from the trust wallet you made mention of. We have electron wallet, blue wallet metaask and many more . That trust wallet

Trust wallet is reliable but the transaction fee is high and something it is affected by liquidity. Talking of hacking, I believe it can only be possible if you misplaced your pass phrase or key.

Securing cryptocurrency is very important, because you cannot fully trust any exchange.I think nowadays all wallets whether they are soft wallets or hard wallets support bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies.Among the soft wallets I trust trust wallet the most even though it is widely considered to have high chances of hacking.If done carefully, the risks of hacking are very low as most people connect their wallets everywhere or click on every link which increases their hacking concerns.

However, I consider hard wallets to be the safest for most cryptocurrencies and bitcoins, and I'm personally using a safepal wallet where I store all my cryptocurrencies.There are also different brands of hard wallets available in the market which you can easily order from their official website,but they are quite expensive compared to safepal wallets.

I will say Electrum is more suitable for a newbie due to its popularity and simple UI/UX. But choose your bitcoin wallet based on multiple factors via: Choose your Bitcoin wallet

For altcoins, you can refer replies from Open source multi crypto wallets!

Your wallet must provide private keys/seedphrases and it should be open source.

I'm using Coinomi Wallet...

Coinomi wallet is slowly going extinct, if you do some research online you'll find out that so many of their customers are going crazy with the number of issues with this wallet, some cannot spend their coins, others are having problem with synching, et cetera. It is also a closed source wallet, so better send your funds out of Coinomi.

Quote from: sokani on January 21, 2024, 04:56:08 PM

Coinbase wallet on the other hand does not give you custody of your funds, the exchange is in charge of it. If it gets hacked, shutdown or go bankrupt, you could lose your funds.

Mind you that Coinbase wallet is different from a wallet in Coinbase.com. Coinbase wallet is a non-custodial wallet, whilst the other is a wallet in their exchange which is obviously custodial.

Always prioritize security and choose a wallet to be a good source for protecting your assets. Based on the need like if it comes to cryptocurrency savings then there are devices of choice like desktop, mobile, hardware etc. But you should prefer wallets that have certain features like security, user interface and anonymity. Hardware wallets are the most secure for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But for ETHERUM based tokens Exodus or MyEtherWallet can be used. There are also Electrum, Ledger Nano S and Tezor for Bitcoin storage.

For safety reasons I sudjest you use blue wallet or electron wallet. Those two are Dex wallet and people love them because they are anonymous you can do multiple transactions without kyc.

I'm using Coinomi Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, Metamask. Not problem at all. You can choose any wallet you like. Just keep your system in safe, use antivirus etc

Aside metamask wallet, the other wallets should be avoided like a plague. The fact that you've not lose your funds yet doesn't make them safe.

With Coinomi and trust wallet you've self custody but they're closed source wallet, a hacker could exploit a vulnerability in the code and steal your funds. Coinbase wallet on the other hand does not give you custody of your funds, the exchange is in charge of it. If it gets hacked, shutdown or go bankrupt, you could lose your funds.

Choosing a reliable wallet before holding bitcoins is an important task for a bitcoin investor. If you are able to maximize the security of your assets in the beginning then you will be able to hold bitcoins for a long time risk-free. However, it is important to keep in mind that a wallet's seed and keys are very important to keep when storing bitcoins. No matter how good a wallet we use, if we cannot keep these secret keys safe, we will lose our assets. If we store in top level wallets for holding bitcoins there will be no negative effect if personal security matters are safe. Most of the times especially in the case of newbies, they loss keys or phrases and may stolen due to carelessness and thus they lose their bitcoin. I can't blame any service provider for that indecent.

Trust wallet is a Good wallet. it supports Bitcoin and almost every major Altcoins as well as EVMs which means you can add custom tokens too. so it is good enough for your needs. now speaking of wallet's security then that is totally up to you.
It depends on how you handle your Keys and also what do you do with that wallet. Keep These things in your mind:
1: Don't Store your Seed Phrase and Private Keys Online or/and On a Digital Device that has Access to the Internet (Mobile or laptop) Write them down in your Diary or somewhere offline.
2: Don't use random Dapps and Dexs, and don't connect your wallet with any web3 websites especially if you don't know about them. a lot of dapps are scams and will drain wallets if connected and given authorizations.

if you want to be more secure and have a lot of funds in crypto then you should go for an hardware wallet.
