If you hold any significant amount of coin, I would highly suggest buying a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano S or something similar
This could be an important choice that will save a big headache later!
This is coming from experience! I lost about 40 Bitcoin in BTC-e. This was considered one of the most reliable exchanges in the crypto community for a long time before the US kicked their doors down and confiscated all of their bitcoin and other crypto wallets.
If I would have been smart, I would have been storing all of my coins on a hardware wallet. With a device like the Ledger Nano S, you can’t get hacked if you have your device in a secure location because you must physically have the hardware wallet to send funds.
If only I could go back into time, I would have put all of my coins on a hardware wallet and left them there to accrue growth.
If you have been on the fence thinking about buying one, never heard of these, or never thought you’d need it, spend the money for the peace of mind and security!
They hold all major coins and all erc20 tokens as well!
To the moon,
Absolutely correct, with the increasing attention on cryptos, there is a need to secure our assets as well.

It is best to buy it from their official website. Because there are many scams.
Below is their link.

When you lost your hardware wallet, do you also lose all of your bitcoin? Would you be able to back it up? This hardware wallet still confuses me.

They will give you a 24-word phrase when you set up your ledger nano s to recover your bitcoin, you can recover with a new ledger or using another wallet that they support.

@bwells what do you consider a significant amount? At which amount do you care about putting it on the hardware wallet? Thanks in advance!

I would say anything over a couple of hundred of dollars worth of crypto. What's crazy is that $100 in crypto now could be $1000 or even $10,000 in a few years. Why leave it on an exchange when you can buy a hardware wallet for $80-$120 and never have to worry!
