#CryptoSecurity101 Wallet Security:
* Choose the Right Wallet:
* Hardware Wallets (Cold Storage): These physical devices (like Ledger, Trezor) store your private keys offline, making them highly resistant to online hacks. They are considered the most secure option for long-term storage of significant amounts of crypto.
* Software Wallets (Hot Wallets): These are connected to the internet (desktop, mobile, or web-based). While convenient for frequent transactions, they are more susceptible to online threats. Only keep small amounts in hot wallets that you use for active trading.
* Paper Wallets: Physical printouts of your keys, immune to online hacking but vulnerable to physical damage or loss.
