is it worth keeping my crypto in a secure wallet if it's only worth around 2 grand?

>> No.18926228

what do you mean, is it 'worth' it?

I have $3k in RSR but technically it's future worth is about $6.5 million so yes I keep it on a hardware wallet

If you’re fucking with amounts bigger than 1k I’d say it’s worth it. That 2k could be worth a lot more someday, so why not secure it now.

no. The "secure wallet" thing is a fucking meme there is absolutely no need to waste your money on one of these things it's a vanity item just use a pencil and piece of paper

it's not worth it to buy these things if you are not using it frequently to purchase.

i rather recommend this solution instead
bip38 encrypted paper wallet.
you can print it out and store it digitally in many copies for practically free.
secure against theft. cheap. and redundant.

Neither is 60 bucks but you seem to think its an investment decision worthy of some serious consideration.

People who requires secure or paper wallets for even large amounts are literally brainlets. Not getting hacked by this shit is computer 101 and if you can't manage it, well, you deserve to lose your money.

I like ledger because it's a bit smaller, so I can store it in a waterproof aluminium tube. The trezor touchscreen is nice but I think it's up to personal preference. I bought the backup pack from Ledger using a voucher code I found online which basically meant the second "backup" ledger was free.

It looks good. It's more expensive aprox x3.
Tbh, I wouldn't just because I don't want to be the early adopter that gets fucked by a new company. Plus Cobo are a bunch of chinks, whereas Ledger are France/USA.
What I did was get the Ledger backup pack and a stainless steel passphrase backup. Cryptocurrency Steel Wallet by Steel Wallet is good, you only need the first four letters for BIP39.

Just ask yourself: Would you leave 2k in a somali bank account? If yes, don't worry about hardware wallets. If you'd rather have the 2k under your pillow, I'd go for one because the average somali bank is probably more secure than the vast majority of crypto exchanges.

The hardware wallet is only like 50 bucks, what do you think?
