  At BYDFi, we highly recommend using a hardware wallet for storing your cryptocurrency. Hardware wallets provide the highest level of security as they keep your private keys offline, away from potential online threats. With a hardware wallet, you have full control over your funds and can securely initiate transactions. While hosted wallets offer convenience, they come with the risk of relying on a third party for security. By using a hardware wallet, you can have peace of mind knowing that your cryptocurrency is stored in a secure and offline environment.
