ijust secured my lr because i did lr to btc exchange and someone hacked my lr with all the funds smh

Best way you be to just memorise if you can

Thanks for this I was a little nervous that my bitcoin wallet was not secure enough but you helped me. Thanks again.

Thanks,
 Great read

Spot on. You're only secure if breaking your lock takes more effort that the perceived value behind it. If nobody know you've got gold in that shed, it's (mostly) as secure as if it was in a bank vault.

If everyone knows... It's another story. =P

my grandma understood this well.

interesting

You don't have to sync the blockchain before a wallet goes into cold storage. The wallet and blockchain are completely separate.

If you meant when you're spending money from a wallet, then yes, you do need to have a synchronized blockchain, but if you already have a synchronized blockchain database, you can use that with your cold wallet when you're ready to spend from it.

thanks for the infomation.

My wallet is secure now
