RE: DON'T USE ANY FREEWALLET.ORG APP OR WEBSITE!!!
Oh yea I'm makimg a post about my hardware wallet soon. But not everyone can afford one of those, especially if it costs almost the same as the coin u have
You don't need a hardware wallet. I have my wallets (MOST IMPORTANTLY the private keys) backed up on an encrypted VeraCrypt partition, that I put on a USB stick (10$ worth) :)
I dislike hardware wallets because they're expensive, and I can't control how they work. With my solution, I have 100% control over my stuff, greater flexibility, and I can do backups on as many sticks that I want.
That is a good point....hmm
I only trust opensource software, otherwise, there's no guarantee whatsoever that those hardware wallets aren't a scam, and that one day you may wake up with your wallets empty! Besides, having such devices is a big flag telling the world "look I have a digital wallet, steal me". Whereas a USB stick is so mainstream it flies under the radar 🤑
So then your using websites?
No I'm using offline wallets. The only online wallets are my exchanges accounts. But when I'm done transacting, I often withdraw my currencies and keep them in my offline wallets.
Got u
