Its cheaper indeed but a hardware wallet is also offline and pretty nice to have, these days they are also way more cheaper than before on all kind of websites.

Hardware wallets are okay but I also prefer online wallets above hardware wallets because they are simply much easier.

Yeah I find it also good, but of course we used to use the online wallets since we don't have to bring it and it is secured with the bitcoin
wallet provider, and the disadvantage of it , is you will need to spend for it to buy it. Simply not moving your btc in your btc wallet is way
better than storing it to hardware wallet with the same purpose.

Yes! I would definitely buy hardware bitcoin wallet. I find them safe and secure. I could keep it the way I want. Unlike online wallets, I do not even know where they are keeping my bitcoins. With hardware wallets, I can have full control with my own money. Smiley

Online are easier but keep in mind they are also do not have the best security compared with offline wallets.
If you want a very secured wallet use a paper wallet or a hardware wallet could also be used.

That's what I'm always saying that it depends to the people who are using it and on how they are using wallets. Well for me, also I'm not going
to buy hardware as I'm already contented in using blockchain.info also.
I'm also confident that blockchain has a good security for our bitcoins stored there.

THe blockchain is pretty safe but if you have a large amount of bitcoins even the bitcoin is not safe enough.
I recommend you to take a paper wallet or hardware wallet if you have a large amount!

Why would i?, while paper wallets are already available. Paper is much more safer than a usb wallet and it is free. As long as you aren't a billionere (which you aren't) you don't need a class 1, highest quality, the most secure hardware wallet. It is not for people holding a couple btc's but hundreds of them. I can't help but thinking, even if got 1000btc right now, i would still use a paper wallet. As long as nobody knows you have that amount, you are safe anyway. Hardware wallet won't protect you if you have a gun pointing at you.

This is a good question. I never used hardware wallets, and I am still wondering what will happen if it broken.. but I think there must be a solution for this . they must provide private keys of hardware wallet's addresses. if it broke by chance then we can recover our wallet.

if we want to save a lot of bitcoin, and bitcoin we want to make sure it's secure carry around. then the hardware wallet is the right choice. wallet hardware provides more security, especially fingerprint access in order to access our wallet account.

Maybe if they are really good I will do this in the future.

Since I still can use online wallet, I better use it since it easy to manage rather than I spend to purchase hardware wallet which has expensive price. Ofcourse higher price provide better safety but I'm just looking for simplicity

Hardware wallets are offline so they are safe but the most people are going for 100% security so they will not pick a hardware wallet but instead they will take a paper wallet most of the times.

I think paper wallet is dangerous wherr yoy put your money is its because if you accidentally delete your files well i think you will be broke if that happen, well i can say blockchain is the very best and ideal where to put your bitcoin and you can assure your bitcoins are quitely sleeping safely thats why many people prefer to use it because it has strong feature that even pro hacker cannot broke, and i dont really want to put my btc in some hardware wallet becausr it is not flexible and convenient to use,

I would never call blockchain.info safe, do a quick google: https://www.google.com/search?q=blockchain+account+hacked you'll see dozens of people that lost their coins that were stored on a blockchain.info wallet
A hardware wallet might not be the most flexible, but at least your coins are safe... If you google https://www.google.com/search?q=trezor+wallet+hacked you'll see a lot of people asking questions about trezor's safety, but i couldn't see a single one proving his funds got stolen from a trezor.

In the end, it's up to you... If you want an online wallet that can be used from any computer or phone that has internet connection, and you're willing to give up some of the security, that's fine (as long as you know the risks you take).
On the other hand, if you want the best protection, and you're willing to give up some flexibility, you should go for a hardware or paper wallet.

Just my tought tough.
