Great video :) I suggest adding timestamps to make it easier for viewers to see the sections we each find most relevant!
You got it! Thanks for watching and providing feedback 🫡
Thanks man! I dumped Ledger X and S away and got myself Safepal S1 (stored coins), Trezor Safe S3 (stored coins) and Onekey Classic (daily transaction use) after watched your review, now considering Keystone 3 Pro as backup. What is your opinion friend?
Just replied to your comment on my other video :)
Very well presented. Good info. Nice work
Ey! Thank you very much!
Ledger X user. The whole access to keys frightened me so Bought an ellipal titan. I was very excited about using this product. My issue that turned me off was that it took an entire day for my Lumens to show up on the wallet. I don't understand the delay. Watching this I think I'm going Keystone.
If you go to view blockchain query it hits faster. It'll pop up on blockchain then update on wallet.
good and clear explanation. Thx!
Thank you for watching!
another video packed with great info. I still have no idea of what wallet to buy. I no longer trust Ledger. I want the best one that I can use for only holding. I will only transfer in and out to another cold wallet that i will be using. Which one should i get? please give me two suggestions. only the best will do.
Either the Trezor Safe 3 or Keystone 3 Pro. Here’s and updated video: The BEST Cold Wallets for 2024!
ruclips.net/video/n7BCH4fAYuY/видео.html
I like the Tangem a lot. The only issue is it needs wallet connect which isn’t supported on one of my larger protocols so connecting is a problem. Is there a work around?
If it’s your storage wallet, I wouldn’t be connecting it to anything. Use a software wallet to connect to dapps/transact and transfer any funds to Tangem for safe storage.
If you’re using it as a daily/burner wallet, you might have to find a new protocol.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla not sure I can change. Okay, here’s a question. I have a few wallet addresses on one ledger. I want to move one wallet off that ledger to another cold storage. If I transfer the tokens I pay a tax that I’d like to avoid. Can I instead move that particular wallet off the ledger onto another device and remove it from the original ledger? My sim is to have one wallet on only one cold storage.
you dont pay tax when moving tokens between addresses, only when trading them into other currencies and realizing profits.@@stevehk1800
nice video mate, would you use hot wallet temporarily until cold wallet arrives or just wait?
If you have crypto stored on an exchange. I’d rather have it on a hot wallet than on the exchange.
If you haven’t bought any crypto assets yet, and you are considering buying at least $100 worth (basically the cost of a hardware wallet) I’d wait to get a hardware wallet.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla if i may add .....in my opinion it is much safer to keep on an exchange than in a hot wallet , i learnt the hard way.
Hello, Do you have a review about ledger stax? (Their newest wallet)
I have this pros and cons video. ruclips.net/video/qgYfbPowWsE/видео.htmlsi=126daRsg-Blq-6pf
I can tell you right now, for the price, I’d rather have the Keystone Pro.
- Alex
I can’t find the keystone pro on the link in description it only shows keystone pro 3 and there is a wait to get it ! Please help
The Keystone Pro 3 is the new Pro.
It’s the upgraded version. I would recommend it.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla should I buy the ledger nano or get this one , it’ll be my first wallet!
I'm newbie and I don't want to ask dumb questions but. What would happen if the app (for example Tangem) stop working?
Great question! The app is available on GitHub so anyone can re-create it.
That said, if you get the Tangem 2.0 you can generate and record your wallet’s seed phrase.
Using your phrase you can access your crypto from any hardware wallet (not just Tangem) which is what i recommend.
Heres my review of the Tangem 2.0 wallet:
Tangem Wallet 2.0 Review: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
ruclips.net/video/_eIX8icH1To/видео.html
- Alex
Great video. Considering moving to Tangem. Only drawback I see is not having a seed phrase to recover but we’d have 2 back up cards. Seems so simple and a durable system thatI don’t get why it’s not more popular?
Every wallet has its pros and cons. Tangem is great for beginners and it is actually extremely popular.
Personally, I use multiple hardware wallets/seed phrases to diversify my assets for additional security.
But for $40-50. Tangem is great!
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla makes sense to use multiple wallets though I’m wanting to rely on one for ease.
Isn’t is something to consider with wallets that need a seed phrase for recovery that if that seed phrase gets found, either on paper or on some stainless steel contraption and they know what cold wallet we’re using, they can restore new wallet and take our crypto?
With the Tangem cold wallet, they need to steal one of the cards, our phone and know the passcode to unlock the phone AND the passcode to enter into our Tangem account.
Makes sense that Tangem is safer right?
You can use almost ANY hardware wallet to import a seed phrase. It doesn't have to be the exact wallet or even brand someone uses, so yes you are right.
Tangem and other wallets have their pros and cons for sure, so I wont say Tangem is safer than something that comes with a seed phrase.
But you make a good point.
Tangem just introduced optional seed phrase for their wallets.
@@RichardRietdijk YES!! Video about this dropping in a couple minutes actually

Wouldt it be possible to get hacked if you have a maliciuse program on your device if you use a tangem wallet? Wouldt it be posible for the program to see the nfc scan with your private key or have i missunderstaded somthing?
Nothing is impossible to hack. In Tangem’s case, it’s just VERY UNLIKELY.
Their site says it all: The card is EAL6+ certified, and the firmware is installed on the card chip once and once only, during the manufacturing process at the factory.
After that, it’s physically impossible to do anything with the firmware: you can’t read anything from the chip or load your own version of the firmware onto it.
Even if we assume that a hacker has managed to do this, the card would be unusable.
The firmware attestation service would determine that the software has been changed and warn the user.
- Alex
@cyberscrilla but wouldn't a program on your phone be able to collect the privat key/seed phrase from the nfc scan when scanning the card? Or is it the samme when plugging in a ledger would it also be possible to take the data from my ledger device when plugging it in to a phone?
@@ludvigm.nielsen1346 no it wouldn’t. That’s what the secure element is for. It ensures your private key remains on the card. The private key does not leave the card and the NFC doesn’t communicate the private key externally either.
@cyberscrilla How can we recover our assets from Tangem if the app is no more available from Apple Store or Google Play Store since there's no recovery phrase? Thanks.
@@MS-ic8lj The app is open source and the code is available on GitHub, so any once can re-create it if needed.
If it got to that point-personally I would transfer my assets off Tangem to a different wallet.
But I don’t see that happening in the near future. I answer all those questions in the Tangem Wallet review if you want to check it out: ruclips.net/video/dFibNttFId4/видео.html
So help me understand. As long as we don't opt in to the ledger update everything is good or should we just change wallets?
So they say. If you don’t opt in for the service, then they can’t access you seed phrase.
So at that point, it all depends on if you trust ledger or not with that statement.
Because before, they said the firmware could not access the seed phrase, but now they’re saying it can if you opt-in.
Thus, they lost the trust of many.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla including me. Thanks 🙏🏾
Then again, I think that we are good if we just hold on to what we trusted in at first. I trust Leger. Can you imagine the law suit if that would happen.
I bought a Tangem wallets. But what f,ed me up was that they sent me the wallet before they got the money. Yes they have my credit card info before the money was taken. And it still has not been taken,yet I have the 2card wallet. Scam. Delivery to my front door . Shidd . I won't be using that. I figured 3to 4years I would lose everything. Baby sit me until the Bull market. Hood rats don't play no games. We trying to get out of this itch . I'm already learning and teaching myself and family how to hunt. Food so high. Wait until 3 years from now.
To each their own. If you feel comfortable using Ledger, then more power to you. I still think Ledger is one of the easiest wallets to use personally. Great UI@@trustinginhim1698
As a beginner, is there a good security hardware wallet recommended? How about OneKey Wallet?
For beginners i recommend Tangem, OneKey, or Trezor
Here’s my updated video
ruclips.net/video/n7BCH4fAYuY/видео.htmlsi=hI7a9W0laHP3ZwYs
Can you add a second finger print (KeyStone Pro Wallet) ? What if the unthinkable happens and you leave your wallet to your kids. How does that work?
The Keystone 3 Pro (which has replaced the Keystone Pro) allows you to add multiple fingerprints.
If you want to leave your wallet to your family, make sure they have access to your seed phrase.
Link to the new keytsone 3 pro is in the description 👍
- Alex
What about safepal s1 pro wallet ? Do you recommend it ?
Safepal is good too
Great video thank you
Thanks for watch David!
- Alex
Are any of those wallet adaptable with Phantom Wallet?
What do you mean by adaptable? As in, you can connect it to Phantom wallet?
Hi cyber scrilla, does the keystone pro wallet support USDT Tether? Thanks
Yes it does! Let me know if you have any other questions.
- Alex
Which cold wallet supports XDC?
Thanks
The Keystone 3 Pro does. Link is in the description of this video 👍
hey bro! does any of this cold wallet allow crypto conversion?
Yes many of them allow you to natively swap coins including Tangem and Onekey.
That said, any wallet can convert crypto if you just use a decentralized exchange (dex).
@@cyberscrilla most of them have terrible rates though because they use third party for the conversion like changelly
I'm new to all of this but what is stacking ? I have seen a few people say that some wallets dont allow stacking?
I think you mean staking. This is a way of earning rewards for holding certain cryptocurrencies.
Many platforms will require you to lock up your crypto for a period of time to participate.
If you don’t stake crypto, then you don’t need to worry about it.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla yup staking lol see I'm new to this. Thank you so much !!!
You're welcome. LMK if you have any questions. Happy to help
Does letting a a battery go dead lithium or otherwise make any cold wallet useless? Like if I let my cellphone go dead(maybe apple with oranges) the device works if I just charge it. Cause if I actually get this crypto currency bought and working, I definitely want to know if my absent mindedness could affect retrieving my funds.
A crypto address is on the blockchain,. and the funds stored at the address- are on the blockchain. A wallet,. is nothing more then a window- allowing a person to see the items being stored at the address, on the blockchain.. Whether a wallet is hardware (like these cold ones), or software (like metamask),. or any other way- all of them are technically not "holding funds".. The funds- are on the blockchain,. the wallet allows you to see/put/take.. We users use a seed phrase ( a collection of 12 - 24 words) to create a unique wallet address (that is on the blockchain),.. a device/wallet then views whats at an address (provided you give the device/wallet the same seed phrase to create an address on a blockchain)... so if the batteries died, recharge it. Funds are safe. Broke the item? Buy another one, it'll ask for a seed phrase- give it the same one you used originally, BAM funds restored on new device...as the device/wallet is nothing more then a window to see whats written on the blockchain- and interact with it.
Two things: First, if the battery simply dies because you have to recharge the wallet-that’s fine.
Second, if the battery permanently dies (eventually it will after years) your crypto is still safe. It’s stored on the blockchain, not your wallet.
You’d simply enter your secret recovery phrase into another wallet to access your funds
I hope that answers your question.

@@cyberscrilla what is your advice for people running linux?
What do you think about BCVault?
I can't say for certain as I don't own one.
I'm sure it's a good wallet. In terms of security, I'd go with the new Keystone 3 Pro (not mentioned in this video).
Its security is unmatched.
- Open source
- Air-Gapped
- 3 Secure Element Chips
- Multiple Seed Phrase support
- Biometric Authentication
- Self Destruct Feature
Only $100 right now.

Hi, I wanted to thank you for this review. I bought the first one and I can’t wait to receive.
Thank you for watching and congrats on getting a cold wallet!!
@@cyberscrilla Thanks. I have found some extremely difficult to use. I just hope this one is not one of them.
You got Tangem? It’s really easy to use
@@cyberscrilla Unfortunately I received the wallet and it has already been added to the 8 others I bought I could never figure out. I’m old and easy for you guys but I didn’t get a mechanical engineering degree to understand. It’s all good, I just need to understand these efing things are not an option for me.
I heard something about turning airplane mode off while setting up tangem? I got mine
Not necessary imo.
@@cyberscrilla ok thank you.
You’re welcome!
Nice video! I am just wondering why you didn't mention Trezor wallet. It is the best hardware wallet in my opinion. It should've made your list.
I don’t own Trezor so I can’t give it an honest review or recommend it.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla That is something you shall have to remedy...
I agree. I use the old Trezor one. It's easy and secure.
@@cyberscrilla Damn!!! Should have mentioned that in the video.
Is the nano s the older one not the plus immune to the current issue?
Depends on what you mean by “issue”. Ledger Recover is the subscription service that when activated by the user, sends your private key externally.
Initially, this is only offered on the Nano X (and likely all devices thereafter) via a simple firmware update.
Now the bigger “issue” is whether or not you should trust Ledger period. The previously stated the firmware could not export your private key, now all of the sudden it can.
According to Ledger, they can’t send private keys externally unless the user opts-in for the service.
So it really comes down to if you trust the company or not.
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla is the nano s tec not able to have the firmware it says on there website ledger recover wont work on old nano s, was just wondering if that ment nano s was safer than plus and x,
@@jimbean8643 If that’s what they say then I suppose. But who really knows? That’s what I mean, if you trust Ledger then more power to you.
I’m not sure why Ledger couldn’t technically release a firmware update with Ledger Recover for the Nano S, as it’s the same hardware as the Nano X (minus Bluetooth).
The only reason they say that is because they have retired the Nano S and haven’t released a firmware update for it since 2021. BUT. They could.

Can u buy and sell on Keyston Pro 3?
Yes, certain coins you can buy and sell using the K3P
what about the AirGap wallet / AirGap Vault? fully open source
Id rather use a dedicated air-gapped hardware wallet personally.
so wich one do u recommend to buy
Depends on your needs and preferences. My favorite are Tangem and Keystone
What does “Air gapped” mean? Also F Ledger…. B/c of them I have to get a damn new wallet :(
Air gapped means the device has no external forms of communication which increases security (No Wifi, Bluetooth, or USB). Here’s a video all about air gapped wallets. ruclips.net/video/PTU6kk7Yqyo/видео.htmlsi=EGbDGY9D_Zbqa1cW
Yeah. Many are unhappy with Ledger. Fortunately there are a lot of alternatives. Lmk if you have any questions.

First time buyer here looking for a trustworthy and reliable cold wallet for XRP/XLM. Any suggestions? It seems overwhelming with all these options😅
For those coins, I’d opt for the Ellipal Titan Mini. Affordable, secure, and supports both XRP/XLM 👍
- Alex
@@cyberscrilla thank you! Would the bundle be worth it with the seed phrase steel? Or is just the titan mini by itself enough?
@@ImTimApple I have both.
The seed phrase steel is to store your seed phrase. It’s better than writing it down on paper as it could be damaged via water, fire, etc.
The steel plate is fireproof, waterproof, and resistant to corrosion.
@@cyberscrilla sweet thanks! I appreciate the help you have a new subscriber!
@@ImTimApple You’re welcome Tim! Thank you for your support
my man! gives us the goods immegiately!
Ey! You know it! :)
One aspect is missing from your review : Ledger has a Windows app, Tangem has no Windows app for example. I don't know about others. That is a big issue for me.
Yes. This is an older video. I have a new best of coming out soon :)
Do a review on Klever Hardware wallet
Looks interesting. I’ll try to get my hands on one to review. Thanks for the recommendation.

Would like to know why you didn’t consider of the Trezors ?
I don’t own a Trezor so I can’t review. Also, I’m just not a fan of their wallets from what I have researched. If I get one, I’ll be sure to give it an honest review.

I understand now you only reviewing you liked wallets ?? Even other wallets giving best security but you not review wow
@@cyberscrilla very very thanks for replying me
How can you recommend Tangem when the cards are made in CHINA and the firmware is installed there?
What’s wrong with China?
@cyberscrilla , China is a COMMUNIST Country. They are not a US ally. The people of China can't even fart without asking permission. In fact, you have to ask/apply for permission from the government to buy a home. Even Google pulled out of China YEARS ago cuz they got tired of the Chinese government hacking into them. Don't think that the Chinese government doesn't know about Tangem. They know EVERYTHING!
They even have strong ties with the Lazarous Group. You know, the hackers from North Korea.
Does tangem support XRP?
Yes, Tangem supports XRP.
I’m shocked not many people talk about the Ngrave does anyone have any info about this and whether it’s worth getting ?
Because it’s overpriced and unnecessary.
@@cyberscrilla oh that’s good to know I got a ledger x but looking to upgrade so wasn’t really sure which is the best I was going leaning towards the Ngrave but that’s in the bin.
Also thanks for replying I will definitely subscribe now 🙏
A good alternative to Ledger Nano X would be either Tangem, BitBox02, or the Trezor Safe 3 imo.
Thanks for subscribing!
@@cyberscrilla perfect and just a quick one what’s your opinion on the ellipal keep hearing of that
@adamkhan2646 ellipal in general is good if you’re looking for an air-gapped wallet, it won’t be as user friendly as the other ones I listed though
I replaced my Ledger with a Jade (SeedSigner is also a good alternative)
Very cool! I’ll have to look into both of these options. Thank you for sharing
- Alex
What about the Safepal???
I don’t own a Safepal. So I didn’t review it. But once I get my hands on one, I’ll give it a proper review.
thanks bro, looks budget friendly and has a big range of coins so def interested in that@@cyberscrilla
Would Ledger still be able to access my Ledger Nano X even if I opted out of the Ledger recovery service?
They say “no” that’s not possible. It’s like a transaction, the user has to approve it.
BUT, since their firmware is closed source, no one really knows what they can do with the it.
So it’s not IMPOSSIBLE. But Ledger claims it won’t happen.
@@cyberscrilla I would say they have capability to access your seed phrase even without the subscription, if you allowed the updates since the announcement. It's the new firmware updates that make extraction even possible. If your wallet still works fine without an update then i would not update the firmware.
@@laughingbird Without prof, it’s impossible to say that Ledger has access to users’ seed phrases otherwise or without opting-in.
That’s just speculation.
Hd or ssd?
For what?
Tangem seems like the no brainer for the beginner
Right?? It’s just too easy!
What about NGrave ?
It works. But it’s extremely overpriced for no reason. Plenty of other options like the Trezor Safe3 that’s just as secure.
Can a cold wallet be accessed anywhere in the world ?
Anywhere with internet yes
Ledgers recovery feature is confusing to a lot of people. If you do not sign up for the recovery future which cost monthly or yearly then you will not be affected once so ever. The update does not allow them to obtain your keys without you verifying the transaction. Even if the government was to subpoena Ledger to give this information it wouldn't be possible because they wouldn't have it. If you had opted into the service they would have the capacity to obtain the other two shards needed to reconstruct the rest of your private key. This is solely a business tactic for the next Bull Run that is expected they're trying to get the new people that buy crypto in this next Bull Run to stay in crypto a lot of people are going to flood the market that have no education once so ever when it comes to crypto. The biggest financial institutions in the world know that this is going to be the biggest Bull Run and they're trying to make a profit
"If you do not sign up for the recovery future which cost monthly or yearly then you will not be affected once so ever." That's not true. Since Ledger's code isn't open, there's no way to know. And since Ledger now uses key extraction firmware, Ledger devices now have an over the internet attack surface for hackers to exploit. And anyone who says that's not possible is a fool since the code can't be verified. Even Ledger admitted their code can't be fully verified.
Correct. They are trying to appeal to non-native crypto folks too. But, the fact remains. The announcement rubbed many people the wrong way, and they instantly lost trust as a cold wallet manufacturer.
100%. I’ve read comments elsewhere that suggest Ledger should have just created a completely new cold wallet that offered the extraction feature vs including it in the firmware.
I thought this was a great idea. Then consumers would have the option to choose and Ledger could’ve maintained trust. Unfortunately, it may be too late now.
@@cyberscrilla "The announcement rubbed many people the wrong way" It's not about the announcement. Ledger said "The secret keys or seed are never exposed to the BLE stack and never, ever leave the Secure Element." Then they wrote firmware to extract keys from our wallets over the internet. That's fraud.
I assume if you don't update your firmware you should be fine. As long as your device still works without the updates.@@asteriskesque
Why didnt you review treszor
Because I don’t own a Trezor. I’ll try to get one and give it a proper review.
- Alex
Thanks
Wow, thank you for your support!
- Alex
Just used your discount to purchase a wallet.
Hey, thank you Amy 🙏
The proper term for Ledger's seed recovery is "Extraction." I won't use a wallet that has key extraction firmware. And since Ledger's code isn't fully open, there's no way to prove it's safe. Even Ledger admitted that: "There's no backdoor and I obviously can't prove it" That's a quote from reddit user btchip, who is also a Ledger co-founder. Ledger retroactively screwed all of us by turning our cold wallets into hot wallets with key extraction firmware. I'll never trust them again.
Thank you. It’s understandable that you will never trust Ledger again. That said, a small percentage of users MIGHT actually prefer the extraction option (mainly crypto beginners).
Ledger failed to implement the method in a way that everyone would be happy. Instead-they lost trust instantly.
@@cyberscrilla - The issue isn't that they implemented the feature in a way that makes everybody happy. The issue is that they sold SIX MILLION cold wallets with promises like "Your keys are always stored on your device and never leave it" and then one day they turned them into hot wallets without our consent. That's fraud. And some may say "If you don't want to use Recover, don't use it." That's ignoring the fact that Ledger wrote code to extract keys over the internet and they put that code on your wallet whether you subscribe to Recover or not. I think Recover is a fine service to offer. But turning cold wallets into hot wallets is fraud. I paid for a cold wallet. Ledger's own website said "The secret keys or seed are never exposed to the BLE stack and never, ever leave the Secure Element." Then they wrote code to extract keys from our wallets over the internet. That's fraud.
Maybe. But the service is optional for now. You don’t HAVE to put that firmware version your device if you don’t want to.
But I know what you mean. They really dropped the ball on this one.
@cyberscrilla what wallets do you recommend using for best overall performance ?
@@cryppto3943 I’d go with Keystone or the new Tangem 👍
which one is the best ?
Keystone is my first choice. Followed by Ellipal and OneKey,

Why are you suggesting Ledger? Seems like an affiliate video
Because some people still really enjoy ledger and don’t care about Ledger Recover.

Only buy open source wallet, if ever closed source make sure it's a reputable company/brand.
Yes, some people prefer open source.
And although a company might be “reputable” that can change overnight with one announcement. Just look at Ledger.
@@cyberscrilla agree and have at least two cold open source wallet and as your bags 💰 gets bigger try to add another wallet to mitigate the risk.
@@user-vy4dy1gw1v great point. Diversification is important.
I've moved on from Ledger Nano X... I bought the Ellipal Titan - not the Mini.
Nice! How do you like it?
Seems like the best way is an ellipal and a keystone wallet than split your tokens into a few different wallets
I wouldn’t say those are the best options, but they’re good. And to your point, diversification is key
@cyberscrilla yea, i meant for the tokens i have specifically,my apologies. don't put all your eggs in one basket. ThanKS again
Definitely! Both are great options as long as they work for you 👍
Ledger Nano X has destroyed the spirit of their buyers with faulty battery making it a stressful for crypto protection
What do you mean faulty battery and why is it stressful?
Even if the battery dies, you can still use it when plugged in. Or you can simply import your seed phrase into another wallet.
- Alex
A cold wallet with bluetooth function is technically not a "cold" wallet.
You’re right. Which wallet are you referring to?
@@cyberscrilla none specific. It's just that many of the new generation wallets have bluetooth, and that's a big risk.
@@relaxbro5605 I see. It’s a risk, but I don’t think it’s a “big” risk.

KeyStone Pro Gen 2
The Keystone 3 is coming out soon. I’m currently testing the prototype! It’s pretty cool 😉
@@cyberscrilla KeyStone Gen 3, has a fixed non-user-replaceable battery, that's a deal breaker. Now 'Foundation Passport' takes the lead over all, they use a standard Nokia format battery found on the net.
@@Muzammil.S Deal breaker for some, but not all. Nearly every hardware wallet (and phones) have internal batteries.
Plus even if the battery dies, you can still use the device when it’s plugged into a power source.
Def worth noting, but I’m more concerned about overall security, user friendliness, and coin support.
The downside to the Passport (although nice) is that it is Bitcoin-centric. Most users want to store more than just BTC.
You didn't do Ellipal Titan
I did the Titan mini which is the same thing just smaller and more affordable
No trezor wallet in this video is a shame model t is the best wallet
I didn’t own Trezor wallet at the time. My new video will likely feature Trezor :)
I came here to find good replacement for Nano X
Tangem is super easy to use and very secure. Also affordable.
Here’s my review of it:

@@cyberscrilla I more though about Keystone 3 pro.
@@CamelKatowice I reviewed the Keystone 3 Pro as well:

I think Ledger wiped away my crypto assets. They've disappeared from my Nano X after months of secure storage. I've been robbed.
This is unlikely and practically impossible. Your assets aren’t stored on your wallet, they’re stored on the blockchain.
What you described sounds like they may have stopped supporting the assets you hold, but you still own them.
Have you viewed the blockchain to see if your assets were actually transferred out of your wallet?

@@cyberscrilla Well, mine were mostly basic: Bitcoin and Etherium. Is it possible I need to update some apps?
it does not effect Ledger Nano S
Yet. Ledger Recover Will apparently be available for all their wallets eventually
Ledger Nano X is the best ! I’m a novice old fashion guy and it was easy to understand and set up !
It is a good wallet depending on your desires. It is really user friendly. Unfortunately Ledger has lost the trust of many of there former and future customers with the announcement of the seed phrase recovery.
It will be interesting to see how cold wallets evolve as crypto advances too.
I own a ledger Nano X and moved everything off it because of the update. The 3 shard key thing and a possible subpoena from the government killed them. So I bought an NGrave Zero wallet wich is 100 percent air gapped and open sourced.
I just watched a video of a woman who had all her XRP stolen off her ledger nano.
The new update for the sharing of the seed phrase is the likely reason.
I am moving all my crypto off my ledgers ASAP.
They have royally screwed up if even one person's wallet was hacked. And there are numerous cases of it happening.
@@_Rustodian It is HIGHLY unlikely that Ledger Recover was the culprit. It’s not even available at this time as the rollout has been put on hold.
Don’t make the mistake of believing ANY hardware wallet can’t be hacked.
Devices that are compromised are almost always the result of a user error.
Very rarely is it the result of the actual device being digitally or physically “hacked”.

@@_Rustodian I think she actually bought her ledger from a 3rd party so it was unfortunately already compromised. But i havent updated to the new firmware yet because of the sharing bs
I do not trust ledger cockers or other sticks walets...
That’s fair. I generally choose a wallet based on what’s inside. Not if it’s a stick or not.
I like wallets with:
• Secure Element
• Open source firmware
• Air gap tech
- Alex
Ledger have been robbing customers for years. How can they justify that price, especially with all the cheaper, better competition.
For real.
JUST GET A TANGEM.....SEEDS R HISTORY
It’s a step in the right direction for sure. The current phase of seed phrases is like dial-up internet.
We are early.
If you also pay attention to Hindi language, your production can increase in India.
Unfortunately I don’t speak Hindi
ok no problem😊@@cyberscrilla
Boo, no Ledger
Ledger is at the end. I longer recommend Ledger.
Here’s my updated “Best Cold Wallet” list as we head into 2024:

Love the 2024 list, great video!
@@abates7555 Hey thank you! I put a lot of thought into which wallets made the list this coming year
Wtf? No Cold Card?
Nah, I’ll make a different video covering BTC only wallets. This isn’t that.
