I believe most of the steemians got some cryptocurrencies, no matter you are a trader, a speculator or simply a user here, you must own some cryptoucrrencies like steem, like btc, eth, ltc, etc on hand, cryptocurrency becomes more and more popular, increased attention also increased risks. Bitcoins and many other altcoins use decentralised control as opposed to the traditional centralised currency and banking system. So, you should take responsibility for your money!

我相信大家都有不少加密貨幣,不論你是一個投資者,炒賣家,什至只是這裡的用戶,你最起碼大家都一定會有steem,什或乎btc, eth, ltc等等等等。隨著加密貨幣愈來愈普及和盛行,愈多的注意力表示愈高的風險。 加密貨幣基于去中心化的共識機制,跟傳統依赖中心化監管的银行金融體系相對。因此,你更需要好好保管你的錢包,你對你的錢擁有控制權,同時你必須對你的錢負責,採取良好的措施來保護你的錢是你責任。

Keep your cryptocurrency offline, especially when you are holding high amount of cryptocurrency that you want to keep those safely, of course high amount is a very subjective statement, it's your choice.

你的私钥只有在離線時才是最安全的,尢其是當你持有大量的加密貨幣(大量這個詞很主觀,看你們自己決定),但只要你想確保你的貨幣都安全,緊記保持你的貨幣離線及私钥只能被你一個人掌握。在加密貨幣的世界裡,要怎樣保管你的錢都是你自己的選擇。

Hardware wallet | 硬件錢包

A Hardware wallet is a physical device which stores the user's private key. You can simply carry around your hardware wallet like a normal one and use it as and when you please. Together with the USB cable which you can use it to plug into your laptop or desktop to do all your transactions. It basically solves the problems in hot wallet (-insecure) and cold wallet (cannot directly make transaction from them), the hardware wallet gives you the secure as at cold wallet together makes transaction simple as the hot wallet.

“Think of a hardware wallet like your own underground steel vault. If you own a significant amount of bitcoins, you should strongly consider getting one!”
by Jordan Tuwiner Founder, Buy Bitcoin Worldwide

Downside 1 - Hardware wallet is not free.
Downside 2 - Hardware wallet doesn't support every tokens.

硬件錢包是一個實體設備讓你能保存你所有最重要的私钥在一個安全的離線環境當中,顯而易見,離線儲存私私钥能免受黑客的攻击。就如冷錢包一樣的安全。同時,它解決定冷錢包不能交易的問題,透過裝置連上電腦/平板等設備即可進行交易,基本上硬件錢包是優化了的冷熱錢包。

「可以把硬件钱包理解为你用钢建造的地下室那样牢固。如果你拥有大量重要的比特币的话,你应该强烈考虑有一个硬件钱包!」
Jordan Tuwiner Buy Bitcoin Worldwide 创始人

壞處 1 - 硬件錢包不是免費的。
壞處 2 - 硬件錢包不能支援所有幣種。

Popular hardware wallets | 流行的硬件钱包 - Ledger Nano S, Trezor, Keepkey


Do not keep your $ in the exchange | 不要把錢都放在交易所

Exchange online and computer are easily hackable, no centralised database that is un-hackable!

把錢都放在交易所是非常危險和不負責任的,任何線上交易所和電腦是可以被入侵的!

It is a good practice to disturb different assets into different source of wallets. For instance, put small amount of tokens into the hot wallets, the exchanges for quick transfer, kinda treat it your real wallet today. Distribute different tokens in different ledger, paper wallet, desktop.

理想的做法是不要把錢放在同一個地方,分佈錢在不同的錢包。例如,少量的金額可放在熱錢包,交易所等方便交易,就像你日常生活的銀包,你總不會把所有錢都提出來放在錢包裡吧。剩下的錢分佈在不同的硬件錢包,紙錢包等等,就像你現實生活的銀行戶口。

"Think of a hot wallet like your wallet today: you use it to store some cash, but not your life savings. Hot wallets are great if you make frequent payments, but not a good choice for the secure storage of bitcoins."
by Jordan Tuwiner Founder, Buy Bitcoin Worldwide

「可以把热钱包想象成今天使用的钱包:用它来储存一些现金但并不是你所有的积蓄。如果你需要频繁的交易,则热钱包是一个不错的选择。但并不是一个存储比特币的安全方式。」

Principle & Reminder | 基本原則和提示

  1. Generate your private keys in a secure and offline environment.
  2. Back up ! Remember to do back-up of your private keys to avoid hard drive failure or any other problems.
  3. Encrypt ! I am sure you will regret if you didn't do so when you lose your wallet.
  4. Distribute ! Distribute the coins in different wallet!
  1. 在安全及離線的情況下創私你的私钥。
  2. 備份 ! 緊記一定要為你的私钥備份防止硬盤損壞或其他事故。
  3. 加密 ! 當你的錢包丟失了你就會後悔沒作出加密了。
  4. 分佈 ! 不要把錢都放在同一個錢包。

JUST KEEP IN MIND YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CRYPTOCURRENCY YOU'VE GOT! IT'S THE DECENTRALISED WORLD HERE, BE RESPONSIBLE! KEEP IT SAFE!

緊記對自己手上的貨幣負責任,去中心化是非常棒的主意,但同時需要你自己管好你的錢!

我也怕怕 :(

大戶真的要注意一下喔. wigwig你要多加留意。

:((在我的夢裹 :(

最近以太被盗的太多了。

沒錯,放在交易所實在太沒安全感了。

我反而觉得可靠的交易所更安全点,这次是智能合约漏洞导致的,你就算私钥没泄露 一样难以避免。
很多人买币也就是单纯投机,选择一个安全的交易平台可能更为重要

離線錢包價格太高, 這是不理想的。起碼我不願以 HKD588的價錢去買一支nano S。期待中國製造便宜的離線錢包,把價錢拉回合理水平。起碼要跌至HKD200以下, 我才願意去買。

如果你持有數十萬的cryptocurrency就不是這個說法了。

any tutorial recommend for getting private keys?? I still don't know how to back up my online wallet T-T
