The security of my cryptocurrency holdings is a top priority, and I’ve heard that hardware wallets are a great way to ensure offline storage. I have a few questions about how this works, and I’m hoping for some help from the experienced members of this forum.
First of all, I understand that hardware wallets are physical devices that store a user’s private keys. Is this correct? What special security measures are in place to ensure that the keys are kept safe? Is there a way to back-up my private keys in case my hardware wallet is lost or damaged?
I’ve also heard that hardware wallets are used to create a “cold storage” of crypto funds. How does this work? What other ways are there to ensure that my funds are kept safe and secure?
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
