Keep your Cryptos safe

cryptoculture (44)in #bitcoin • 7 years ago (edited)

Just found out that a friend of mine lost thousands in bitcoin by way of a hacker. Just wanted to spread the word to my Steem family, INVEST IN A COLD WALLET. A cold wallet is one that is stored offline just like a flash drive.

I highly recommend getting yourself a cold wallet on amazon

The Trezor below is my favorite!
