Crypto Key Management and Hardware Wallets: Bonus Livestream Session

Описание: Everyone knows security matters, especially for crypto keys. But it's one of the hardest things to figure out for yourself. Key management is one of the questions I get asked most often, by newbies and not-so-newbies. This session is 100% about answering your questions about cryptocurrency and cryptoasset key management and hardware wallets.

In this session, I discuss derivation paths, bitcoin wallet security, Ethereum staking with hardware wallets, secure storage, the electrum wallet, and much more.
