RE: Bitcoin $17,000 Target Update & SegWit2x Returns

in #bitcoin7 years ago

As long as you control your private keys, it doesn't matter - you just need to be able to import those private keys into a wallet that will support it afterwards. However, I haven't seen a single one yet that has claimed support for this version of Segwit2x so likely just going to be a dud. I wouldn't bother if you don't have a substantial amount of Bitcoin to cover the cost it takes to move it to an appropriate location.

Sort:  

I put my bitcoin in several paper wallets.

I've been paranoid about money since 9/11 and do goofy things.

Thanks for the feedback.

FYI here is a pretty good article about private keys and ways to store them.

I'm curious, why did you choose to use a hardware wallet over a paper one or a desktop wallet? Obviously, a desktop is less secure but a paper one sounds super secure. The USB scares me because I've had so many of them die on me over the years.

BTW, Segwits site now has a video on it that's so outrageous​ it's funny.
