Where you keep your crypto keys is one of the biggest security decisions you will make. The core choice is between hot wallets and cold (hardware) wallets.
Hot wallets
A hot wallet — a mobile or browser app — is connected to the internet. It is convenient for small, active balances but more exposed to malware, phishing, and malicious approvals.
Hardware wallets
A hardware wallet keeps your private keys on a dedicated offline device, signing transactions without exposing the keys to your computer. For meaningful amounts it is far safer. Buy only from the manufacturer, set it up yourself, and never enter your seed phrase into any website. See how to store crypto safely.
