Indeed what we have to , because the risk is unstoppable in terms of online using at some time or another we  will taste this to learn and to lose.

this is the perfect solution actually and expect no Guarantee 100% , just do what you can to make it safe.
Never that I use QR code , instead I will choose sending directly to the addresses or manually typing and need to check multiple times at least I maintain my safeties .

Downloading the software from official site or google play etc aren't always 100% safe, you need to verify the signature.

When you want to print your private key/seed phrase, you need to know if printers might store your private key/seed phrase. Similar to converting your private key/seedphrase, you're need to use tools and they might compromise your wallet.

Uninstalling the wallet from your phone aren't necessary means your cell phone completely delete every data about the wallet.

Correct. Finally someone is getting it. Nothing is 100% safe and we need to make our coins safe ourselves by getting the necessary information needed.

When I talked about the exchanges I use for trading and investing Bitget and Binance particularly what I checked are the Reserve ratio and protection fund to guarantee my fund safety

The safest cryptocurrency wallet is an air-gapped hardware wallet, but its drawback is that it requires technical expertise to use, making it unsuitable for novices looking for a simple wallet that isn't too advanced for them.

Hardware wallets are protected from online attacks when they are not connected to an internet-connected computer, however even though they are the safest wallet, they can still be physically attacked. One way that hardware wallets can be compromised is if someone receives a phoney hardware wallet with flaws that allow hackers to access your wallet and private key.


There are some measures to be taken to protect air gapped hardware wallet from attacks else it can get compromise. Air gapped Hardware wallets are designed for offline purposes and are not meant to be connected to an online computer. Connecting to an online computer/network is so risky that it is even advised to always use a phone USB charger to power it up and not use an online USB connection to power it up so it doesn’t get exposed.


This is a major concern as well since it is very possible to receive a fake hardware wallet or receive a wallet that contains malware from a wrong company Despite being the safest wallet option we still need to put into consideration some security measures so we don’t risk losing our assets or private keys.

Cryptocurrency in general is very risky because we make use of wallets that are being designed and developed by other people and the majority of us lack knowledge about programming and software development but we still trust and use wallets designed by others. There is no guarantee in crypto but it is always worth the risk.

This is actually a good tip for those who want to hold their bitcoins for the long term because you cannot afford to lose it when the price is currently rising like what we are witnessing today. Other people fail to understand the importance of these instructions and often jeopardize their chance to safely secure their bitcoins. Along with buying some bitcoins, you also need such knowledge to prevent hackers from infiltrating your crypto wallet whichever it is and also it could be the way to preserve your bitcoins until the bull runs come in the future or even next year after the bitcoin halvings.

You are on a forum about Bitcoin and you advise to pay only in cash, but what about Bitcoin?

In fact, there are a lot of tricks of scammers, that user falls for every day, so caution will definitely not be superfluous. If we decide to invest in Bitcoin, we must understand that the responsibility for its safety lies only with us, we are our own bank and if something happens to our coins, we cannot change anything, everything depends only on our knowledge and decisions.

Well, we can't blame people for having trust issues, especially in these kinds of stuff since you can even make your own QR code online, and then paste it as payment to scam people. Any kind of transactions that can be done online are most likely prone to scams and hacks as people are knowledgeable enough to code something that can access your private data as well as your funds. Sometimes your knowledge of this kind of thing is already behind to new kinds of techniques for scamming, just imagine the first person who got scammed with the use of a QR code, for sure they are not aware of that kind of modus, so from that experience he would prefer to use cash, if you let know people this story they would prefer to use cash. We would never know if one day someone could access your wallets and Bitcoin to whatever thing you have clicked online, so every action would literally need caution.

I don't think that anyone that understand security on his wallet, will use his wallet that has his bitcoin to play with by scanning any how QR code because the only time that a QR code is to be scanned is when you want to transfer your bitcoin to another wallet address, this is when you are to scan, so I don't see why someone will use his bitcoin wallet to start scanning anything online.

The hardware wallet is safe but the safety of your bitcoin lies in your hands, if you take precautions to keep your wallet safe, your hardware wallet will be safe but if you lose guard your hardware wallet, then you wallet will be compromise.

Yup, I know people that have been telling that they like doing these especially those products that has them. While with such products it can be genuine and safe because they've got physical entities. But you'll never know here this curiosity or practice will bring you. Much better to just stop doing so since it's not mandatory at all.

IMO, if you're going to scan QRs and you want to send it to someone. The best thing to do this is to do it face to face, when you can actually see that the QR code generate came from the actual wallet of the receiver.

There is no guarantee on anything in this life, not even our lives are guaranteed, we can sleep and fail to wake up the next day, but I pray it will never be our potion.

This is why sometimes going extra miles to invest your money is not worth it, life do end when we don't expect it, and anything can also happen too, take risks when you can but don't go extra miles for anything.

To invest conveniently you need to start making good amount of money, this will make investment easier for you, still there is a risk of losing everything but it's better than not taking risks at all because no risk no reward.
