Is it worth getting a hardware wallet? If so, which ones do you guys use?
I've been looking at the new Ledger Nano X and it looks pretty neat. I want something that can hold erc20 alts and the blue chips like BTC and XMR. But, i'm not too well versed in hardware wallets and, admittedly, Ledger's website was plastered all over google searches, so I'm open to suggestions.
Also, what do you guys do for physical security? Stuff it in a box under the bed? Multiple hardware wallets? Bank vault?

No, I have all of my 100k links on binance, I believe in their security and honesty.
Get the Skycoin one, it's like 30 bucks and better build quality.
>I've been looking at the new Ledger Nano X and it looks pretty neat
The Skywallet is better quality and cheaper, and $SKY is the only thing worth holding anyway. Everything else is vaporware.
Not a fan of SKY personally. Does the wallet only hold SKY or does it support others?
I keep my entire stack on Cryptopia. I haven't checked it in a while though, might go look.
Get the nano X if you are mostly on mobile. Nano S has less space since new software update
Nano is fine if you only want to hold 1 or 2 assets. Mine is exclusively for BTC and LINK
I don't need to rely on mobile mostly, just want somewhere safe to store muh coins. Is there a better/reasonably priced wallet for the "under the bed" kind of wallet use?
I intend on holding 7-10 assets on the wallet I end up purchasing
Sky is an absolute scam. I’d really be careful.
How about using a Personal computer

>blue chips
OP i have the trezor & ledger, get the Trezor, its open source & out for years.
I have ordered the nano X BUT I am not using it as my primary. Wait till people can try to hack it. Its probably going to be fine, but why risk it. Also no matter what you need a 'vault' the old ones are perfect for that!
Ledger is great for shitcoins though...
I store my seed on a Stainless steel plate in a fire proof safe...
>I believe in their security and honesty.
They are rated the 34rd securest exchange btw...
>MUH FUNDS SAFU
just store on Binance which the safest exchange. In an event of a hack, CZ will refund all those that lost money
Initially just $SKY. The first firmware updates will support BTC (and its forks) plus ETH (and ERC20 tokens).
Other coins with their own blockchains will require more integration work and will be added later.

>hurrrr durrrr
I do not plan on buying SKY, just curious about their wallet. Thanks m8
I don't trust muh coins on my active PC (porn and whatnot) and I can't afford an offline PC.
> wait till people try to hack it
Good idea m8, didn't one of the recent ones have a vulnerability last release? Also, Trezor Model T looks pretty legit as well, considering buying that one now too.
> No matter what you need a "Vault"
I must admit, I've never used one before. Any suggestions? Are there any good hardware Vaults to consider or should I use Coinbase (which I believe insures your vault?) or is there a good Vault I can download online?
> initially just $SKY
meh I don't plan on owning SKY anytime soon so that wallet wont do me any good
Thanks m8s

Also, OP remember when taking advice on here, This is the lowest IQ board on all of the 4 channels!
topkek if you use anything but a nano S your JUSTing yourself.
>hold it on binance its supoer secure
lel just wait til they get “hacked” or CZ just straight up exit scams
>CZ will refund us
TOPkek you think some chinese gook will refund you US citizens when he gets hacked n he’s down 500m? The absolute state of biz
CZ is worth billions and he the most trustworthy guy in crypto. I wouldn't doubt CZ.
I recently got a ledger nano s. very pleased with it. Bluetooth and extra storage not worth it for me as only tokens I store off-exchange are ETH and BTC
Just buy a Trezor! the X is not out of a bit anywho so I would say get the trezor & wait for the nano X, it can take 100 apps. The current Nano S you can only have 5 app installed. Let me explain, you can leave your crypto on there but if you want to put a 6th crypto on the ledger you have to uninstall the app, install the other app, then if you want to access the crypto but you deleted the app on the ledger you have un install one and reinstall...its not difficult just simply a pain!
Trezor - Most proven, Open source
Ledger - Shitcoin HEAVEN
Also
PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO THE FUNDS ARE SAFU faggots
Binance is the 34rd securest exchange, only newfags leave there financial future with someone else!

Best of luck
FUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKK
>i believe in their security and honesty
Yeah their blatant security token is illegal
>which the safest exchange
kek, come on CZ learn english first
>He the most trustworthy guy in crypto
lel CZ stop samefagging
BNB coin is securities
>Trezor Model T
Don't bother!
Get the original, works the same except its a got a b/w screen...Use your saving on more crypto /Nano X.
FYI i haven't used a Model T...It just seams pointless
Is storage a common issue with Nano S? Second time i've seen it mentioned
Sounds like a pain, I'll definitely have to get something with more storage than the S then. Thanks for the help guy, it's looking like Model T or Nano X.
Also, I don't store shit but my REQT and XMR on Binance. Need to get the Model T or the Nano X since they support XMR
Nano S only holds 2-3 assets now. If most of your shitcoins are erc-20 they all fit on your ethereum wallet.
Although not perfect, ledger has the best products. Trezor being a close #2
>Need to get the Model T or the Nano X since they support XMR
The model T doesn't have a wallet...
trezor.io
>storage on Nano S
It's not a big issue but some people care about having access to all their shitcoin wallet private keys 100% of the time. Truth is that once you obtain your public address you don't need to keep the wallet installed on your ledger for it to work. Exception to this would be BTC if you care to obtain a new public key for every transaction.
I'm an autist with many shitcoins so i'd probably fall in that category.
I meant the Model T supports XMR, where there regular on does not
>I meant the Model T supports XMR, where there regular on does not
Got what you said, I am sayin even though the Model T supports XMR, there is no wallet yet! i.e its not workin yet!
I don't have my XMR on my ledger but it supports it RN! Your going to have to the the Ledger if you want XMR support RN! 0 point in the model t...you don't know when the wallet will come out
Well shit I may just end up waiting for the Nano X to come out then. I'd rather wait the month or two and have everything working rather than wait for a "coming soon" support option. Maybe that bluetooth connection will be neat too
Sweet, looks like my good deed is done for the day!
hardware wallets are just for convenience and peace of mind. you can get better security with different offline key generation methods, like booting from tails OS and creating an electrum wallet on an airgapped computer. but that can be a big hassle when you want to buy a coffee or some small item.
with that said. ledger has been shitting the bed lately with their recent firmware release. plus you have to download software now to use with the hardware device that tracks certain user data and sends it back to their servers. you cant opt out of this.
Trezor has more open source code, but is also been shitting the bed with recent exploits found by wallet.fail
however, they seem to be going in the right direction by supporting offline signing of tranasaction with their Trezor model T. they also dont require you to download software to use the wallet accept a bridge application. most of their software is in browser, and there's no usage reports sent back their servers...yet.
shop.
best one on the market is probably the Trezor Model T at the moment.
No, your shitcoins will be worth less than the hardware wallet.
Maybe, but that's why i'm looking for one that stores the "blue chips" and shitcoins
thanks m8, i'll take that into consideration with everything else in the thread. Currently Nano X is barely beating out the Model T for me
Same.
fuck it, life is risk
I love my Ledger Nano S. Great device, I would hate to be manually pasting Pkeys all over the place.
>hardware wallet
>not printing the codes and burying in the garden, inside a waterproof office case
>buy crypto
>cant even hold your money securely because its not real
their recent update made it so that you can only have 2 apps on the device at one time. retardation.
keep your shit on Binance. One of these day a critical vulnerability in the closed-source ledger software will be exploited and your financial future will be wiped out
hardware wallets are a scam because they're all so fucking expensive
i have my 27k link on binance too,
This is a good report. Saving it to share with others.
