There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Do you think the cold wallet is the best choice to keep safe your cryptocurrency? Nope!
I used the cold wallet, and I only keep my Ethereum in this wallet because I cannot sync the blockchain data through official Ethereum wallet.
The best choice to keep safe your wallet avoid the hacker is to create a wallet in an offline device and send money to this device to hold until you need to use.

First off, whatever you do, you have to keep your private information from others. There is a reason why it is called private. It is meant to be personal. Be careful of the sites or ads you permit on your browser, make sure you make use of the 2FA for your accounts, or get any of the hardwares. These are some pretty good tips to keep your account safe.

This right here. Follow the things that are listed out here and you should be quite good to go. The biggest threat to you as a crypto investor is hackers getting into your wallets and stealing your coins. Always make sure that your wallets are properly secured in the right ways and never save any sensitive information associated with your wallets in places that can be accessed online.
Also, watch the video people, it's informative.

Why did you stressed the fact that transaction fee is cheap? there is no connection between price and safety in this way.
Speaking about security, you have to store your private key in a right way and don't use free VPN services+ avoid fishing sites

I just save my Ethereum in this wallet because I can not sync the blockchain data through Ethereum's official wallet.

I consider the safest option, it is a hardware wallet and at the same time it's very convenient. . Recently, both Trezor and Ledger because of the competition among themselves do not stand still and develop.

As we know hackers are active but still we can failure the hackers.Safe your wallet with different security tools like 2fa,sms code it will secure wallet from the hackers attack.It is better dont hold massive funds on exchanges because exchanges are at risk.
The best way to secure funds to use offline wallets which are more secure than online wallets.

Do not talk with other people about your work in crypto and have a strong password with various signs and digits. And use only reliable wallets and platforms.

Quite a few backers assume that the quick firewall to prevent scammers is by means of know-how and practice. We must master the inner workings used by blockchain before trying to risk too much on it.

This is for those who use wallets with cheap transaction fee, such as ethereum based wallets.
There are some who cannot yet afford to purchase a hardware wallet. On that note, i have a suggestion on how your wallet can be safe from hackers. I have always noticed wallets that get easily hacked are those that are subject to public view.
Try as much as possible to have a separate cold wallet address that you do not copy and paste the private key, and neither do you share the address with anyone. You can use it to store most of your valuable coins.
Even if you want to transfer any coin or token to an address belonging to another person, first transfer it to your public wallet before sending it out.
This is very useful tips but I'll like to add some like avoiding entering private keys on malicious link to avoid being hacked by hackers or better still use paper wallet but most importantly hardware Wallets like trezor, Ledger nano is the most safe that cannot be hacked

You can protect your wallet by  separate your private key to your mew address do a notepad and separate your address and your private key and do not log in to the phishing  site from the email because many of hacker are trying to get the private key using fake mew website they are sending to the people I think you receive that also MEW website from email it's a big phishing site.

Protect your wallet from any fraudsters and hackers by keeping your private key safely. Never give your wallet keys to any person or source which you think has questionable authenticity. Your private is for you alone and any site which ask for your private key should be ignored.

I protect my wallet by avoiding suspicious website and i avoid some peoples referal/ links they share. I also avoid airdrops because sometimes the more you joined an airdrop the more you are prone to hackers or phising website. I also make a wallet which i dont use in public and store some big potential coins there, while the other wallet is i use for bounties or making transactions with others. I am not saving my private key to my device i just wrote it down and keep it safe on safe place.
