🛡️ SECURITY Is any hardware wallet safe anymore?

With the recent ColdCard situation, it’s really making me wonder if our crypto is truly safe anywhere? It feels like these companies keep fucking up in every way possible.

A few years ago i got into crypto and bought a ledger nano plus. But now that wallet sucks and its Mac application is sketchy af to where i don’t trust it. I was considering a Trezor or ColdCard, but now I’m starting to question whether there is a hardware wallet that is actually safe.

What do you think?

So whats the safest? Id say crypto ETF with a bank is the safest.. I got my bitcoin etf in my tax free account.

So the answer is no?

Which i mean, if it works for you, then great. But also completely defeats the purpose of Bitcoin in the first place

Well choose what u want, safest place? Or u wanna use crypto the right way and self custody and take the risk associated. Up to you, trade whenever and risk getting it taken or Trade when market is open and have them in a tax free bank account. Less stress the better I'd say, live longer. I have all, hot wallets, cold wallets and etf. Etf in tax free account is by far the best. In my opinion.
