RE: DON'T USE ANY FREEWALLET.ORG APP OR WEBSITE!!!
Keep your wallets on your own devices. The whole point of cryptos is to be masters of our money, why let anyone else have access to it?

Oh yea I'm makimg a post about my hardware wallet soon. But not everyone can afford one of those, especially if it costs almost the same as the coin u have
You don't need a hardware wallet. I have my wallets (MOST IMPORTANTLY the private keys) backed up on an encrypted VeraCrypt partition, that I put on a USB stick (10$ worth) :)
I dislike hardware wallets because they're expensive, and I can't control how they work. With my solution, I have 100% control over my stuff, greater flexibility, and I can do backups on as many sticks that I want.
That is a good point....hmm
I only trust opensource software, otherwise, there's no guarantee whatsoever that those hardware wallets aren't a scam, and that one day you may wake up with your wallets empty! Besides, having such devices is a big flag telling the world "look I have a digital wallet, steal me". Whereas a USB stick is so mainstream it flies under the radar 🤑
So then your using websites?
No I'm using offline wallets. The only online wallets are my exchanges accounts. But when I'm done transacting, I often withdraw my currencies and keep them in my offline wallets.
Got u
And did u see the post i resteemed that same day 😏
which one?
About building your own trezor....but I'm still buying one...ikr
But I'll be using it to secure myethwallet
The freewallet.org app is a hardware wallet but you cannot backup the wallet to any other storage. Seems like the funds are not kept on the device though and somewhere else. Dodgy!
