keyloggers monitor keyboard inputs etc and can capture your passwords seed words for wallets if you're retarded enough to type them on the pc. you get those mostly from malware and similar infections but you gotta really click wrong things to activate one. boomer style
there are also remote access tools that basically can see whatever you see and remotely control your pc like RAT. you can get those from malware too, but if you're not a complete retard you won't get them since for most of them you have to either run some program or something like that and have little to no protection on your pc.

You should generate your own seed with enough bits of entropy using dice, and use an offline airgapped pc to sign transactions. Read tomshwom's guide for inspiration.

it applies to every wallet ever. seed words are everything. write them down and keep them close. don't show them to anyone! you can link hardware wallets to hot wallets like metamask for transfer and security wise it's a non issue since an eventual hacker would have to have physical access to your hardware wallet to tamper with it.
>>21353835
he's a brainlet when it comes to tech and he set it up himself without even knowing what seed words were and boom, a year later all of his coins were gone. that's the scam they were doing. they start the setup process for the ledger and write down the words and shut it down. later they print them out to look official and use that scratch tape to appear "secure", similar to a credit card envelope and its pin code. they repackage it to look as it wasn't tampered and sell it on ebay and wherever. even if you get a wallet like that you can reset it and generate new seed words, but firmware tampering is also a thing and it's not 100% secure.

Wrong. Rogue employee can pwn hw wallet. Hacker can pwn hw wallet. Anywhere up the supply chain of the hw wallet's hw and sw can be pwnd. The hw wallet company itself might be setup with the express purpose of pwning all or part of their customers. Stranger things have happened.

What's a good secure wallet that's not a hardware wallet. I don't trust the companies behind them. Open source hardware is a meme. Ideally something like a paper wallet in cold storage where you just have to save 12 word seed.

I know it's a meme but I keep all my linkies on CB pro. dont get me wrong I hate coinbase but I have a unique pass, 2fa, google auth, and 2 whitelisted addresses. even if I got sim swapped or retards at coinbase get tricked by a poo they would have to wait 48 hours before being able to move anything I own

Except you don't have the keys to wallet retard.
So you don't even actually own any of what's in it

Think I dont know that? When you stuff your money in a bank you dont own that either so what's your solution, hoarding it all yourself only to get robbed by some nigger later? Were talking about security, not your useless muh crypto morals

They need a keylogger + remote access to your PC. I wouldn't trust metamask or any software wallets if you're a windows user. Linux and macos will be reasonably safe

Except you do own it in the bank and it's Federally insured
Also the regulation, practices and security of Banks vs Exchanges is laughable

For maximum protection? Idk, I don't go quite that far. It'd be some combination of linux + hard wallet, separate isolated laptop etc
I go with really strong phrase passwords, 2FA and such but not full blown Fort Knox

But I definitely recommend only using stuff like Coinbase for purchases, and moving whatever you buy to a wallet you have full control over

That's nice and all but there's a significantly less chance of me losing my shit going balls deep into premium goy protection than the alternatives. I actually had multiple secure paper wallets previously but many dusting attacks later someone is obviously trying to track major holders. I'll let the kikes have their slice for now

by the way, this place has become the tranny loving shithole you mentioned earlier, I'm phonepostong on my 5th ban for calling people niggers lel

Coinbase is regulated as well. The only real big threat with Coinbase would be the IRS reporting.

CB historically has fucked people at critical times. They might not cash out your wallet or something but they fuck with people as they "need" to

yea they are definitely shady, inconvenient "outages" happen often at the beginning or end of major pumps. pretty sure back in 2016 near the btc top a lot of people complained about not being able to get their sell orders through. although I think that was through the main platform and not pro.
