    CAUTION!! Many scammers are using the comment section to promote their scams and sometimes even use the name “99Bitcoins” in their profile. Never send money to someone you don’t know and don’t accept offers to trade or exchange cryptocurrency from strangers.

      The biggest scam here is your claim that a hardware wallet is to dumb to be hacked. Everyone who works in IT and deals with security knows that this is a horrible conclusion. In real life the opposite is often the case. Specialised devices with a small user base usually have far more undiscovered weak points than big software as long as said software has an open code base which anyone can review. Additionally if all you have is a hardware wallet you have no redundancy. 4 cheap run of the mill memory sticks storing your keys in a KeePass container or even on a partition with regular BitLocker encryption is as secure as any hardware wallet. Sure it may not have a fancy little screen where you can do the actual transactions, but that's not really relevant.

      @@aBoogivogi and also: YOU should be the guy who gets hired to be one of the 'white hat' hackers who gets hired to test these cold-storage systems out. b/c this has been my similar concern/question:
      don't we have to be online, at some point, to shift our BTC, for instance, from an online wallet to an offline, self-storage wallet?? to a paper one *and/or* one of the offline hardware choices like a Trezor or Ledger option - or whichever one we might choose? and then to later send it via the internet somewhere else? because even if we go offline, we could still be sending some kind of an exploit straight to our hardware wallet.
      and I've no idea if this guy is getting PAID to endorse one or more of these wallet options - but he also endorses the nightmare that is the Coinbase exchange [the Coinbase Reddit page + other sites say it all, which I wished I'd known about before I recently 'gave in' and signed up with them 😖].
      I also have no idea if you, yourself, are pro or con BTC/crypto..but point being: you bring up some very serious concerns, imho. and I had *at LEAST* one of your same signficant thoughts - and I can *appreciate* open source software, depending on the context/situation, of course..but re: THIS kind of scenario:
      it DEFINITELY seems that 'open source' means that any bad actor could exploit that factor and find a way in..through the back door? the side door?..you get my meaning?
      and I'm still working that crypto learning curve, for sure..but I'm not certain I agree with the video content that the hardware is safe.
      b/c it seems that being online, somewhere in the equation, is required in order to transfer funds *to* and *from* a cold-storage hard wallet..or that even a hard wallet, itself, is only minimally, potentially hackable? since it seems ANYTHING is hackable! as I believe Edward Snowden and the NSA have, for all intents & purposes, pretty much proven😐👩🏾‍🏫

They were raised in divorced households. Never went to church, no religious training, no social values, no moral conscience. Geeks think steal several million dollars, then set for life. No thought for the human suffering they are causing. People worked hard all their life sweating, then the young geek comes along and robs them. Death to the criminal young geeks! Also, crypto is not easy to understand. Peter Schiff, a smart investor lost his key, hence all his crypto money. Now he hates crypto. Too bad. We need everyone to use crypto, not just the young geeks. We need trainers to show us what to safely and carefully do.

    Two questions. 1. If the hardware wallet you are using generates the seed phrase at setup could this not be exploited by the producers of the said wallet? 2. In view of question one, would it not be more secure if the user (and not the manufacturer) chose their own 24 word seed phrase using the BIP39 word list? Especially in the case of certain manufacturers such as Ledger who don't provide fully open source code. Personally, call me old fashioned but I still feel paper wallets produced offline using a dedicated PC and printer provide the best cold storage option. KISS

    #4 - Another very unusual, but possible, attack is the $5. Well this refers to when someone physically threatens to hurt you with say... a $5 Wrench if you don't hand over your hardware wallet and unlock it with your PIN Code.
    In order to protect from these kinds of physical attacks certain wallets come with another layer of protection called a "Loaded 45 Caliber 1911".

    Pretty good video ! In fact it is the best of 5 I've viewed just because of the little graphics used to explain the transactions. Somehow they dropped the ball and quit with the graphics halfway through the video. Dammit! This was on the way to such a great video!

    So if your hardware wallet gets damaged or stops working for whatever reason, you can put your seed phrase into another hardware wallet and it'll restore your crypto into that new wallet?

    I'm a beginner in crypto and I do understand the functionality of the hardware wallets, but I still have some questions. Can someone please enlighten me? So, you transfer your crypto coin from an exchange to your wallet for safekeeping. I read that coin base charges you fee for transferring. So, how does that work when you want to trade? do you transfer the crypto back to an exchange so you can trade and at the end of it when you're done and want to secure your crypto you put it back on your wallet?
    Or do you keep it in your wallet, plug it, and you can trade in an exchange with your wallet plugged and transactions will still be executed and balance will be updated in the wallet?

    Not sure if I got this correct. So by "transferring my coins" to my hardware wallet, I'm actually just changing my coins that was associated (not sure the terminology) to a private key/address on my trading company's system (which they maintains) to a new set of private key/address that is on my hardware wallet? And to send it back to the trading company's system, I would send my coins back to the original said address?

    7m18s "should be configured randomly.".. By me or the device? I'm confused. Do I choose the phrases or not? If the device chooses for me, how do I know manufacturer doesn't track that choice before sending. This also seems preconfigured to me. Thanks for posting!

    So...you generate the seed phrase yourself, by words of your own choice? Or it comes inside the device to be extracted upon 1st use? This point was not made clear.

  • @thomash5390

    Thanks for the vid. I have several hardware wallets but the only one I am aware of that does "not" store your private keys is the Bitfi.2. Can you confirm. Any device that stores your private keys is completely vulnerable to confiscation and attack. Thanks again for the content.

    So when a address is created on a blockchain with a designated password or key, i dont get to see the key but the ledger software does and masks it. So i basically have to thrust Ledger for example that they dont read the real key trough the software, store it and have access at any time or simply have the alledged randomly created seed phrase stored. Is that right?
