If you have ever invested in cryptocurrency, you are definitely going to be very familiar with what a wallet is because it's more of a bank for keeping your cryptocurrency.

Now, we have hardware cryptocurrency wallet and software cryptocurrency wallet. Each of these wallets have its advantages and disadvantages but it's all up to the cryptocurrency holder to decide the best one to use for keeping his or her digital currencies.

Which one do you prefer between hardware and software cryptocurrency wallet?

I think it is safer to invest on hardware mining because you automatically get what you mine. while on software mining it is the company or other people holds the cryptocurrency that you are mining. you need to withdraw it before you can get what you mine.

The two has their own disadvantage and advantage. Hardware wallet are convenient when you want to withdraw your earnings and also you have the assurance that it's safe with you. The only disadvantage is that you are responsible if something happen to it, like what if you suddenly broke the device and there is no assurance that it will be fix. It's okay if it is reparable but what if it's not, you can loss all your crypto. Software wallet are nice way to store our earnings but we should first research reputable site to store them since a lot of scammer are their. The downside of this is you can receive your crypto for days after withdrawal etc. But for me I would prefer the hardware one, it's a bit pricey but convenient to use.

When you promote your website, you should get more customer information about Facebook and site activity. Google Analytics shows you what happens after you click on an ad and tells you who visits your site from social networks. What I want to say to you is described here Always try to learn more about your customers. As practice shows, it increases sales. Good luck!

If I'm very serious about cryptocurrency and have a lot of it, I would choose hardware wallet over software wallet. That is a hardware wallet is a type of “cold” storage wallet that allows you to store your funds on a device (often a USB). Hardware wallets generate their own private key (that even you don’t see) and store it right on the device. The beauty of hardware wallets is that, using pin access, they can connect to your computer and internet to allow you to easily exchange and manage your assets. However, when you are done managing your funds, you can disconnect your wallet from the internet and store it in a physically safe location – making your private keys off-limits to cyber hackers.

Hardware wallets are known as cold wallets, these are available in formats like UB device and card. they are more popular now while software wallets are just browser wallet, normal but good if you know how to protect. Now currency wallet and exchange platforms too use cold wallets, even if they receive in soft wallets, they keep the cryptocurrency in cold storage (hardware wallets). This is an important strategy to survive attacks and hackings. However one must keep cold hardware wallet secure with different layers.

If you are willing to looking to store cryto currency for a long time and want to ensure the highest form of security, then hardware wallets are the best option to go with. For security, it is recommended that coins are not stored in exchange wallet for extended period of time. In contrast to software wallet, hardware wallets are designed to make your crypto storage options more secure. Software crypto wallets are easily hacked while for a hardware it's difficult because they are physical devices and they are very secure. So for me I would prefer a hardware crypto currency wallet over the software wallet, but just that most people are using the software crypto currency wallet more than the hardware.
 
I have heard about the hardware wallet countless times. But the issue is that I have no idea how that works.

I have only stored my coins in the online wallets and they have been safe so far.

But reading through the comments, many suggested using the hard wallet to store cryptocurrency if you are going to be storing it for a long time.

Hope it's that easy buying the hard wallet? I have no idea, how people get it.......
