Vitalik Buterin

Have no fear, Trezor has a proven track record and continually manages security updates and is CE/RoHS certified. With transparent security, audited and verified by security researchers. Trezor also has 5-star customer support at all times, ready to help in case you come across any issues or need a wallet recovery. Security upgrades and Trezor news are constantly communicated through their integrated app Trezor Suite.

 

While the Trezor Model One offers a simpler version (but still just as strong); the Trezor Model T has an intuitive and convenient touchscreen interface. Both offer an offline recovery seed, that allows you access to your wallet via your personal 12 to 24 long recovery seed. Trezor is one of the few wallets to have a Shamir backup option which offers even more advantages than a single recovery seed and specifies how many backups you need to be able to restore a wallet. During your Trezor setup, the seed is first generated and is unique to you alone. This offline backup allows you to restore access in case of loss or theft. Many people chose to keep their recovery seeds in safety deposit boxes or places only accessible to them. Trezor, while being unique, is still compatible with many wallet apps. You can also buy coins and tokens directly through Trezor Suite without having to send funds to a 3rd party online wallet. With thousands of coins available, you can’t go wrong with a Trezor Model T.

Ledger

The Ledger Hardware Wallet is trusted by millions and is a reliable budget-friendly option. The lightweight Ledger definitely provides many cool security features. Ledger wallets were the first hardware wallet on the market with certified security by ANSSI, the French cyber security agency. Their website even mentions their attestation process:

 

“In simple words, every time you use a Ledger device to process a critical action at the firmware level (such as updating the OS, installing or removing apps), an HSM (secure server) will send a challenge to the device (a randomly generated number). This means it is requesting the device to prove its genuineness. The device can prove that it is genuine by providing a correct signature for the challenge.”

 

Ledger also provides the Ledger Live app as a one-stop-shop for your crypto. Easily buy, sell, exchange and grow your assets with over 50+ compatible wallets. Both the Ledger Nano X and Ledger Nano S do not have full color touchscreens, however both are great for beginners. Simple, but powerful security (Certified secure chip CC EAL5+). While the Nano S only allows up to 3 app installations, the Nano X allows up to 100. The Nano X is the more advanced model and offers a mobile friendly connection and larger screen.
