The safest way to store bitcoins.

The Safest Way to Store Bitcoins.

It's a compelling buzzword, but being your own bank also means it's the investor's responsibility to keep their coins safe. If someone accesses your wallet and steals your cryptocurrencies, they are gone forever. Transactions cannot be reversed and accounts cannot be frozen. This is why safety is so important.




Types of  Wallets

You can store Bitcoin in up to four different types of wallets: mobile, desktop, web, and hardware. The 4 types of wallets can be connected to the internet, "hot" or not to the internet, "cold." However, no matter what type of wallet you use, you will need a set of private keys to access your currency. If these keys are lost or stolen, you will not be able to access your bitcoins, whether you store them physically or digitally. From the loss of physical objects to the malfunction and hacking of digital devices, the security of your bitcoin requires careful measures.


Warm Wallet

Online wallets are also known as "hot" wallets. Active wallets are wallets that run on internet-connected devices such as computers, phones, or tablets. This can lead to security breaches, as these wallets generate the private keys for their coins on these internet-connected devices. While an active wallet can be very useful because it allows you to quickly access and transact your assets, they also lack security. The main benefit of a warm wallet is convenience. You can easily add the Meta Mask extension to a Chrome browser and interact with the DeFi ecosystem built on Ethereum, including decentralized exchanges, income aggregators, and all kinds of other great decentralized apps.


Cold Wallet

A cold wallet is not connected to the internet and allows you to store your money offline. You can receive funds at any time, but no one can withdraw them. Cold wallets are hardware wallets, offline paper wallets, similar offline and USB data storage devices, and even physical media like physical bitcoins. A hardware wallet is considered cold storage because it is physically separate from the internet. Once you've sent your bitcoin to a hardware wallet address, the only way to get the coins is to connect the device to your computer. Otherwise, you can keep your hardware wallet in your drawer, separate from your computer, and no one will be able to access your crypto. You can send Bitcoin to your hardware wallet when it's not plugged in, but you won't be able to send coins from the device if it's not plugged in. Even if you connect your hardware wallet to your computer, there is another layer of redundancy - the only way to send Bitcoin from a hardware wallet is to press a physical button on the device Read More...
