Yeah, I think the subject of this thread already says it all, most people in cryptocurrency seem not to want to learn the easy way, until they have to learn the hard way when they will have to suffer the lose of their funds to either a hack or other vices...
What exactly do I mean?A very popular crypto YouTuber I believe many of us will know -
The Moon, also known the "Moon Carl" asked a question on this telegram group with a poll, and the question goes "
How do you store your Bitcoin?" he added five different options..
1. On an exchange
2. In a hardware wallet
3. In a software wallet
4. I use a combination of methods
5. I don't own bitcoin yet.
And amazingly, out of this five options, and out of the over 700 people that voted, the majority, at 32 percent said they store their bitcoin on exchanges, while 28 percent said they store bitcoin in a hardware wallet, 9 percent store their bitcoin in a software wallet, 15 percent said they use a combination of methods to store their bitcoin, and 16 percent said they don't own any bitcoin yet -
this data is at the time of writing this post.So, I kind of find it amazing that, with the whole campaign of
NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR CRYPTO, bitcoin investors still trust centralized exchanges enough to hold their bitcoins in there, forgetting all the previous incidents where an exchange gets hacked, and investors lose all their funds..
I ask you the same question,
where do you store your bitcoin?
