Yes, of course, physically I have hidden it, but when I put it on social, I have to put some authenticaton like google authentication or a stop sms. Because this wallet is trusted and tested, that's why I'm not worried.

Anything online is lace with security risk and this includes our wallets containing our coins or token. There are some measures taken to increase the security level of the wallets so it is left for the wallets ownes to accept these measures because they are not always mandatory.Some of these measures includes incorporating goggle 2FA, email notification and confirmation and sms code notification.

many of us still keep our coins on our own devices

I believe they do it for a reason. Maybe they're trading rather than hodling, then they might find it more comfortable to keep their coins on their devices. Otherwise, it's too risky, I guess.
I for one, keep'em in a cold wallet. That's the only way to have a good night's sleep Wink

Its understandable to keep some amount of coins on an exchange, as long as you treat it as a hotwallet and understand that those coins are at risk and may be lost through no fault of your own.

The coins on your own devices, are kept safe by you and you don't have to trust third parties.

I think it's all solved by a cold wallet such as LAGER NANO or TRESOR. and then you can leave the laptop on the table in the Starbucks as well as before.

You need to take precautions with any devices you access your wallet with. Apart from making sure your wallet is secure with 2FA and other security features, you also need to keep your devices to yourself.  Any devices you are using, you should be the only person that can access it at any time.  Is not been greedy is about securing your entire life investments and we try to put everything into it to make it secure.
