Medyo matagal na akong aware sa mundo ng cryptocurrencies pero lately lang talaga ako naglabas ng pera para mag-invest ng ibat-ibang uri ng cryptocurrencies /defi projects.
Sa ngayon ay di pa ako nakabili ng hardware wallet like
Ledger Nano or
Trezor. Maganda sana kung merong authorized dealer dito sa atin, madali lang sanang bumili. Isa sa mga nagbigay alinlangan sa akin para mag-order sa labas ng bansa ay ang notice na ito "
VAT and duty not included". Baka malaki ang mabayaran ko.
In the meantime, third-party wallet muna ang gamit ko ngayon. Isa dito ay ang
Coinbase. Kasalukuyang merong dalawang Coinbase apps ang available ngayon sa IOS at Android. Ito ay ang
Coinbase at
Coinbase Wallet.
Coinbase app for buying and selling cryptocurrencies although right now di pa tayo pwede mag-send ng fiat money dito. Pero pwede mag-send ng crypto and then convert to another crypto. FYI lang, required ang KYC.
Dito na ako bumili ng cryptos like Kyber, Algorand, Chainlink atbp. Normally ang ginagawa ko ay bumili ako ng Ripple (XRP) sa Coins.ph tapos ipapadala ko sa Coinbase. Tapos i-convert ko yong Ripple(XRP) to other cryptos. Di ko na pansin kung mataas ang fee nila. Purpose ko dito is to hold it for some time and then sell it pag tumaas na ang value nila.

Although it is never 100% safe to store your cryptos in an online wallet, I believe that Coinbase is one of the safest web wallets we can use. According to them, they keep almost 99% of their assets in an offline cold storage that can't be accessed — when in cold storage, they cannot be hacked!
But in the end, nothing can beat the hardware wallets like Ledger or Trezor.
