If a thief went to the ATM with my card and PIN and saw my bank account balance, he would probably end up giving me money.

All the big whales use hardware wallets only. If they can store their millions worth crypto in hardware wallets, you should also not be scared.

Yea but then they get caught. With crypto they just walk out.

Sure. Have two Ledger nano Ses. One with $1 and one with $1m. When the burgler asks for it, give him the $1 one.

Robberies are often inside jobs. Folks who know how much you have.

As safe as a locker. Just keep the key of the lock safe.

The only thing bad with crypto is that if your seed gets compromised then all the funds can be accessed from anywhere, so the paper wallet is also not secure, quite a few years back there used to be brain wallets and the security that they provided was also worthless.
The best thing to do now would be to lock your funds distributed in more than one place and keep on moving them from time to time so that if a wallet gets compromised then at least you would still be having other wallets and not all the coins would be lost forever.

That's an interesting idea. I might sell some of my real world shit and get back into crypto in the near future.

Yes, it's true: I never keep more than $2k in my bank account.
Everything else is in crypto, including stablecoins.
I'm not rich by any means, but I own more crypto than fiat.

That's why you don't tell everyone you meet, how much crypto you hold. Act poor, live rich.

I agree. I know a rich couple who posted pics of their luxury cars on Facebook, and then when they posted pictures of their vacations someone robbed their house because they knew there was nobody home. Never post such things on social media.
