Why do we need a cold wallet to protect our funds?
For those in the currency circle, wallets are certainly no stranger to this matter. I believe that the wallet most people come into contact with is the hot wallet Metamask (also known as the little fox)
But as wallets increase in number, the issue of keeping private keys has become a worry for many people.
Even if they keep private keys, mnemonic phrases, etc., many people forget or have them stolen due to poor management, resulting in the loss of cryptocurrency assets.
Because of this, people's demand for cold wallets has increased sharply, and they want to store crypto assets through cold wallets.
However, there are many different cold wallets on the market, how should we choose?

💳Ledger CEO: Where there is money, there are hackers, and cryptocurrency is no exception!
Recently, Ledger's CEO Pascal Gauthier discussed a topic of widespread concern—the importance of security measures in cryptocurrency—during an interview with Bloomberg TV. He reminded everyone that while the design of Bitcoin itself is very secure, the platforms where digital assets are stored (like exchanges) have become primary targets for hackers.
Gauthier stated plainly: "Where there is money, there are hackers." As more and more funds flow into the cryptocurrency space, the targets for hacking attacks are also becoming broader. He particularly emphasized that the original intent behind the design of Bitcoin is to advocate for self-custody, and therefore he advises everyone not to leave their assets on exchanges, as the security vulnerabilities of exchanges could lead to significant losses.
He also mentioned that Ledger has been refining its security protocols over the past decade, providing users with a reliable way to securely store cryptocurrency through hardware wallets. Just like we don't keep cash hidden at home but instead deposit it in a bank, digital assets also need a secure "safe."
These reminders come at just the right time! On February 21, Bybit suffered a $1.5 billion hacking attack, with hackers even bypassing the multi-signature protocols of the cold wallet.
According to blockchain analysts, this hacking incident may be related to North Korea's Lazarus Group, which is notorious in the industry.
In short, Gauthier's viewpoint is clear: never put all your assets in one basket, especially in places that are easy targets for hacking attacks.
💬 What do you think? Would you choose to keep cryptocurrency on an exchange, or would you prefer to use a hardware wallet for self-custody? Leave your strategies and security measures in the comments!
