Always use a cold wallet - hardware or paper. In addition, you can protect your investment by putting it into a crypto ira.

Great info.. I thanks for the heads-up ways at which we can store our hard earned coins

There have been interesting articles about hardware wallets in the german media in the last few days.

Even those wallets are not 100% secure as you can hack them physically with enough work. But at least they are easy to hide and i doubt that thiefs look for them. Still the best option imo

I agree. I also trust only hard wallets for long-term storing

As much as possible, keep your keys offline. Have multiple offline storage devices to keep your private keys and make a vault wherein you could keep safe of these words and passphrases. Aside from that, because paper wallet could be crumpled, destroyed or burned, get a metal keyword holder. A metal device that holds letters and words so that you would be able to retrieve even the time passes by.

I guess, saving private keys on a computer is not a good idea? Better if they are written in paper to avoid hacking?

I think the preference of the majority of hardware wallet, and the obvious name that comes to mind is Ledger, but obviously many prefer Trezor too including me!

You just need to be sensible with using of right option that comforts you but it’s important to use something like that for security, especially IF you have large amount of Cryptos with you. As you just can’t be comfortable otherwise with keeping up such a large amount with yourself.

How do I keep my cryptocurrency safe?
We would advise to use the Ledger Wallet Nano S or Trezor.

Hey Thanks for the advices. I bought a ledger nano s, because I have many different cryptocurrencies and wanted to hold them safely. I installed it and everything went fine. But when I started to save my currencies on it, it said, that I have to remove currencies, because I cant hold more than 5. What did I do wrong? I think I missed something. I bought it because eveywhere were told, that this is the wallet you need to have, when you have many different currencies. So I dont think, that this is right. I would be very glad about help here...

I want add one thing.

Don't leave any cpyptos in an exchange.
There is a real danger that cryptos can be stolen by an hacker when exchange is attacked.

++++ agree!

I've got quite bad experience leaving my funds on one exchange for a long time .... ↑

Well, first of all, never leave your coins on exchanges, they can be hacked.
Always store your coins in the wallets for which you hold the private keys. Never store your private keys on computer which is connected to the network lastly, do not keep all your coins in a single wallet.

It is also important to keep private keys and recovery seed in a safe manner. Don't keep this data on a device, better use paper and keep it in a vault or something
