Holding your coins in multiple wallets is a better security measure than holding all of your assets in one wallet. But if you have a hardware wallet holding all of your assets in that wallet is more safe.

Completely likely it is very difficult to protect your coins even if you have very reliable purses in theory they can still be hacked. I think it's not necessary to store large sums then it will not be so offensive to lose them

I am holding my tokens at multiple wallets but for me it is not for the best investment, I am doing for security issues

Hi,

I lost some coins this year (my own fault in Phising)
But if you send your coins to multiple wallets you can split your investments better.

When your wallet is hacked you only lose this wallet.
This is my lesson for the next time  Smiley (and some other securities)

What do you do to secure your coins / tokens?


Yes that is true. Me I am still afraid to open my wallet because everytime I am entering my private key I think I am on phishing sites and they may get my private together my coins. So in order to lessen that case I only check my coins in etherscan and do not open my main account. I do not know what will happen to me if my wallet get hacked

Holding tokens in multiple wallets is one of the best ways you can ensure you will not loose everything if you are scammed. If you loose a wallet, you still have others so you have a smaller amount of lost tokens instead of all.

Using multiple wallet best method I think. It is very secure but you should not lost your private keys. If you want to security change your passwords and use 2FA etc.

Yes, it is good to have multiple wallets right now because there's a lot of hackers attacking into your wallet and they are about to timing you, so to avoid this issue it is much better to have more wallet in order to transfer all rewards in a safe way.

If you are attacked by a hacker, your computer may have been compromised, and keeping multiple wallets won't solve the problem.
So I suggest you buy a hardware wallet.

The threat of losing your coin in cryptocurrency ecosystem is very real! There are all kind of people including people with bad intent who are ready to steal your coin and are banking on your mistake! Be very conscious of  the safety of your funds!

That quite pretty good suggestion, though the main lesson here is always protect our wallets and always be careful on all of your transactions. In this world we can trust no one, we are talking about money and for me there is no room for errors.

Yes, I also think this is the right decision. To keep all the coins in one purse is very risky. After all, no matter how reliable the wallet was. There is still a percentage of the percentage that it can be hacked.

Yes, I also agree with you that it is good to diversify, if you spread your token into different wallets as long as they are the right wallet for the coin and it is safe, you will be able to coverup with another when there is any issue with any of the wallet and you will not lose all you have to a particular wallet.

I feel so sorry about the loss friend. But it has been my culture to be keeping my coins and tokens on three major secured wallets which are; ImToken, CoinOmi and MyEtherWallet.
It's just for the purpose of security as well.

The first time I had my coins stolen, I immediately started to look for protection of other coins that I still had in stock. And I found a very good solution, this is the purchase of the so-called "cold wallet". A cold wallet is called a Ledger, which is not in constant contact with a computer or laptop, and the password is entered only by you manually and in no other way. For me, at the moment it is the safest solution to store your investment.

Hold our coins in multiple wallets is important, it is to anticipate if there is a problem, I agree the idea, even I save bitcoin on more than 3 wallets while I keep Ethereum on more 10 wallets, no security guarantees, so watch out is things to do.

I totally agree on that, holding your coins in multiple wallets are the best thing to do to avoid phishing. It might look complicated but it is a good way to diversify, because its easy nowadays for hackers to do their stuff.

I agree with the 2fa but this feature is just available with just few wallets and even MEW doesn't have this though mostly it's widely used in exchanges. Our wallet should be within our full control neither our liabilities so better be extra careful in everything. Or better yet use hardware wallet for full protection.

I probably belong to people with old views and do not understand the use of a multi-currency wallet, which oddly stores your money on your server. I prefer hardware wallets. It is best that money is always with me.
