I hope he‘s not giving her his SEED.
It's called SEED for a reason. You must bury it. *(a copy)*

No it's an exchange and I've got bad news bud, you don't actually own any bitcoin (yet) Download a proper Bitcoin waller like brd or samurai, make anew wallet, WRITE DOWN YOUR SEED PHRASE, and transfer your bitcoin from the exchange to your wallet. Then you'll actually own bitcoin. Not your keys, not your coins.
In my experience, there aren't many places a burger WON'T go, especially one with a sesame SEED bun ;)
Not trying to single you out, your comment is harmless but… this sub is way too harsh on people who simply share their ideas. This place is honestly a bit too cancerous in that regard. It’s a decent post, and he ended up being right lol. Maybe the pump doesn’t last. But up is up. But I guess we’d rather have a daily “comedy” post at the top right? The same old fucking boomer financial jokes just rewritten in crypto flavor? So hot right now. Herp Derp guys I gave my wife my SEED get it? HAH. 🙄
You gotta keep sharing your seed, but hide your seed phrase. See the trick is to have lots of boating accidents each year and lose your seed phrase, but claim your seed on taxes. I'm telling you, keep the wife at home if she's not making enough money to cover daycare with her own paycheck and it works out. 😀 Taxes are great. P.S. while it's okay to lose a seed PHRASE it is not okay to lose a SEED. Pretty sure there's some criminal issues with that and it'll DEFINITELY affect your ability to DCA.
Don’t buy on Amazon , order from ledger directly. NEVER SHARE YOUR SEED PHRASE AND PUT IT IN DIFFERENT SPOTS ! NO FOTO, SCREENSHOT OR ANY OTHER COPY PASTE , JUST A SHEET OF PAPER , maybe a CRYPTO STEEL. That’s my opinion. Have a nice day
**Disclaimer: Never run a random stranger's code unless you either understand it, or if it's been audited by an entity you trust.** - And here's the rest of it. For those interested, uncomment this line to see what phrase it's checking: > #print('\''+p+'\'') Uncomment this line to see which address that is: > #print(computed_address) - Computing only one million combinations took my machine a good little while. There are probably much more efficient ways to code something this. If you're actually trying to find the private key, you won't by doing it this way, though you might be able to shave off a couple thousand years by trying random combinations of those words, instead of sequential ones, hoping for the Birthday Paradox to pull through.

Make sure you write down the new seed and label it as NEW SEED. Just in case you find your old recovery seed. This has happened many times and the most recent seed or active seed gets disposed of.
Here's how it works: You start with a 256-bit random number. From that your wallet will calculate and present to you a 24-word *seed phrase*. There is a one-to-one association between your seed phrase and your random number. That is, given your seed phrase, a wallet can calculate your exact 256-bits of randomness. You 256-bits of randomness are the input for computing a sequence of private keys for you. As long as you start out with the exact same 256 bits, your wallet will regenerate the exact same sequence of private keys. **Bottom line**: Your *seed phrase* is your back up, in case of losing your wallet, having a hard drive crash, having your home burn to the ground, having your hardware wallet stolen, etc. ***As long as you have access to a copy of your SEED PHRASE you can always regain access to your Bitcoin.*** For example, buy a new wallet, enter the old seed phrase, and you're right back to where you started before your hardware wallet died. If you don't properly back up your seed phrase, you're just asking for it. Back up your seed phrase. Some people stamp it onto metal. Simpler: Create two handwritten copies on decent paper with pencil. Don't use a computer printer, your seed phrase could become compromised. Don't write it with ink, it might fade but pencil will not. Double, then triple check the copies for accuracy. Remember, your life savings are at stake. Store each copy to protect it from moisture and/or paper-eating insects, mold, etc. For example, ziploc baggies, small plastic bottles, pvc sprinkler tubing capped at the ends. Store the copies in separate locations in case of fire, flood, etc. Think long and hard about really, really good hiding locations. A home safe is a bad location. During a potential home invasion robbery, they will aim a gun at your head and force you to open your safe -- make sure your seed phrase is not inside. Similarly, so-called "safe deposit boxes" are not all that secure. Bad places for seed phrases. Better places might include a gap behind some dry wall which has then been patched and repainted. In addition to having written copies in separate locations, memorize your seed phrase and quietly rehearse it at least once per day, ideally in the bathroom with the door shut, the fan running, and the water running (and no phones, cameras, or other microphoned devices nearby).
You’re probably holding like $5 dollars with this type of question. They say WRITE DOWN YOUR SEED LIKE ITS THE NUCLEAR CODE. You lost your seed which is why your asking. Thank you on behalf of scarcity, on the flip side, hope you recover it
Worse: they encourage you to back up your SEED PHRASE to the iCloud. WTF.
1. SAVE YOUR SEED PHRASE! 2. They can be sold but if you sell more than 25% you’ll only earn 10% 3. Pretty bullish but honestly the sell pressure will be so strong as price increases, I wouldn’t expect $1 for a few years. 4. Use case is kinda meh right now, just hold.
ISPs aren't exchanges. CEX = Centralized Exchange like Coinbase, Binance, Kraken. What they mean is aything you buy on an exchange isn't REALLY yours until you transfer it from the exchange to your wallet. Your wallet can only be controlled by someone who has the SEED PHRASE. Don't ever give this to anyone since this is basically the key to your wallet and coins.
Yeah I have multiple, if your house burns down and you have one at work you can create a new wallet and transfer the funds. DO NOT STORE YOUR SEED ONLINE. I also have uninitialized ones to transfer the funds to
When you add a wallet, there is an option at the bottom to import. Only put your public key in there. NOT YOUR SEED or anything else you may have(like it asks). This can be a hassle if you generate a new address everytime. For my cold storage... I just reuse the same address everytime. Everytime I send to cold storage, I just pull up my imported watch only address, copy my public key from BlueWallet, and use it(the same address). I don't have a need for privacy with my cold storage(at least not yet).. So it just works without ever needing to plug up my hardware wallet.
this! - and remember - "not your keys, not your coins" create a wallet (get a hardwarewallet like ledger, bitbox, trezor, ... or an app on a phone for small amounts, e.g. bluewallet) and KEEP YOUR SEED HANDWRITTEN ON PAPER (!!!) in a safe place. never store it on a deigital device.
🚨 whop whop 🚨 POLICE! STOP! DROP AND GIVE US YOUR SEED!
self-custody has lot to improve yet... Sometimes i feel like Coinbase is much much safer for certain type of people. Some of my fam are into crypto and they are so easily to be hacked, even if they use a hardware wallet, they would just write a txt file called SEED PHRASE on desktop. Profesional custodians/companies should be here.
And Meta Mask can be used in line with say a Ledger Nano X to secure even further ( have to confirm via the NANO to make any transfers via Meta Mask ) …. Note ….. NEVER IMPORT SEED PHRASE FROM LEDGER INTO META MASK !!
I seen your comment about 36 hours. What you can do is load up all the paperwork. Look at the link for the hardware wallet. There is others out there. But look for that. That's likely where it is. Anyways, pack up everything and move it to a safe area where you can go through things line by line. # Look for things out of place like a bolt with a large number of washers on them. THIS WILL BE THE SEED # STEP 1: Find out if he even had enough crypto On the mining stuff in the configuration it should link to where the address is. Try to look into this and this will tell you 1. if there is any crypto sitting in it 2. if he might of moved it around to another wallet and it is just sitting there.If you see none, you will obviously figure out real fast there is no point in looking for the seed. Like just because it was just mining. It might be $5 or whatever. So you will know how big of a loss you're looking at if you don't get it. Assuming you have a hard time doing this. Try to find tax records. Many of us try to stay on the right side of the law, and keep track of this stuff. If you have access to his computers. See if you have access to last pass or another password manager. Maybe he had the browser save this. Look at sites like Koinly, Cointracker, and other places. If something matches and you can get in. This is another way to find the address giving he properly documented things for taxes. # Step 2: Getting in If you found something or didn't, with that setup it is likely he was using a hardware wallet. In the stuff look for things like [https://shop.ledger.com/pages/ledger-nano-x](https://shop.ledger.com/pages/ledger-nano-x) Note there is a few types of hardware wallets and a few companies that make it. If you have this or something like it, look for a pin key, seed phrase, or something. He might of used a password manager for this, email, note on the computer, or physical note. Many of us use a bolt and washer. It also could be a metal plate or a number of other things. It is important to note the hardware wallet likely has a security feature. Ledger wallets like what I link you, I think we can only get a pin wrong 3 or 5 times in a row. So be careful. ​ What you're looking for is something with 12 to 24 random words on it. It is possible he used software wallets. Check his phone and look for apps like Trustwallet and anything else crypto related. While you are there, check the pictures. He might of taken a picture of the seed phrase. Check the computer if it has software wallets on it. Note he could've used something like Coinbase wallet where you can use your Coinbase login # Step 3: Once you are in Talk to an accountant and a lawyer on what to do. Depending on the country and honestly depending on the family will depend on what needs to be done. It is best to get with your lawyers and what not to send stuff to the exchanges he was using. Hopefully during this process you would've found which exchanges he was with and what was in every one of them. (Not legal advice, but it might be easier and quicker if you can get in to simply move it to a wallet you control or his wallets. Some exchanges aren't straight forward. Even more if say he was a USA person using Binance under a VPN and backflips.)
Bruh your advice is terrible. DO NOT AND I REPEAT DO NOT EVER EVER EVER EVER store your keys in a cloud service like google drive….. NEVER UPLOAD YOUR SEED PHRASE ONLINE
1. first and foremost do not listen to anyone on DM 2. Trust wallet supports bitcoin 3. Always search first on google before asking here since there are many scammers here so you have to know your basics first so that you can know they are scamming you. 4. NEVER SHARE YOUR SEED PHRASE NEVER
Keep the SEED stored away from your hardware wallet and tell no one where the hidden copies are located, there are metal sheets on Amazon to engrave the words if you don't like the paper copy. ALWAYS double check the WHOLE address before sending funds and the ideal is using the QR Code. If I were in your shoes, I would DCA until the end of the 2024 but this last part is just my opinion, not a financial advisor.
First of all get a hardware wallet and learn how to use it properly ( how to store your SEED and how to copy and paste the address properly before sending funds ) and secondly DCA as much as you can on Bitcoin and Ethereum until the next bull run. When you finally have profit during the next bull run presumably between 2024 and 2025 start selling gradually and cash out from the exchange every time you convert to fiat.

You buy another wallet and plug in your seed phrase. The seed is your crypto. The wallet/device you use is simply how you interact with your crypto. PROTECT YOUR SEED and you'll be fine
> 1) Can Trezor HW break (or stop working)? Yes. It is an electronic device. > Is there any gurantee like waterproof or fireproof type thing? No. > 2) Anyway one can retreive BTCs in such case? The BTC is not stored on the wallet. It is stored on the blockchain. If your Trezor is lost, stolen, or destroyed, get another one and put in the same seed words as the first one and the same blockchain wallet will open and the coins will be there. DO NOT LOSE YOUR SEED WORDS. IF YOU LOSE YOUR SEED WORDS, YOU LOSE YOUR COINS. PERIOD, END OF SENTENCE. > 3) Does Trezor as a company also knows about my BTCs ? No
It looks like the ETH is still in your wallet. Must be an issue on Trust Wallet end. If it doesn't get resolved I suggest deleting Trust Wallet, reinstalling, and recovering the wallet using your private key. BUT MAKE SURE YOU WROTE DOWN THE SEED PHRASE BEFORE RESTARTING.
A seed phrase is a set of words (usually 24 words, sometimes 15) that are used to unlock or restore a wallet. If you know the seed phrase of a wallet, you have 100% control on the wallet. That's why people always say NEVER SHARE YOUR SEED PHRASE WITH NOONE. A pass phrase is basically an EXTRA word you can add to your seed phrase for extra security, so the 24 words become 25.
Why would you go from using a secured hardware wallet to a hot wallet thats had several security breaches in the past??? And no...DONT EVER TYPE YOUR LEDGERS SEED PHRASE IN ANYWHERE!
> **AT THIS POINT, IT BEGS TO MENTION. DON’T GIVE YOUR SEED PHRASE TO ANYONE. KEEP IT OFFLINE.** I'd like to add to this, don't give your seed phrase to anyone, keep it offline, and don't store it DIGITALLY in any form. Don't take photos of it. Don't get it out in front of a webcam without sticking gum over the cam first. Don't write it down in the notes app on your phone. Your seed phrase should go from pen to paper, then to a safe place, and NO WHERE ELSE EVER. Many think it is fine to take a photo of it but sometimes your phone and computer are backing up files or sending stuff to cloud storage without you even being aware of it. As our devices get more complicated and more connected, the room for error and accidents multiplies. Your seed phrase should be written in ink or stamped onto metal, it shouldn't be anywhere near a phone or a computer ever.

Cold computer -> SEED -> Strong password -> AES Encryption -> QRcode generator -> Printer Necessary tools: [https://a3diti.github.io/aes256-offline/](https://a3diti.github.io/aes256-offline/) [https://github.com/nayuki/QR-Code-generator](https://github.com/nayuki/QR-Code-generator)
Unfortunately this is another tragic case of someone not fully understanding what they are doing. Saw another post this morning about someone doing something stupid with Ledger. These Devices, Trezor and Ledger are provided so that YOU can own your keys, YOU are responsible for your money when you put anything on them, this is the beauty of them!!! When you lose money or think someone can steal from these devices, then you are 100% wrong, there are only 2 ways for money to leave these devices 1) you give someone your SEED and they replicate that device on to a new one - Your Fault 2) You confirm a transaction - whether that's using the swap function on Ledger live to swap funds on FTX (DON'T do this when the exchange is Farked!!) or you believe that someone called [BestNewCrypto@gmail.com](mailto:BestNewCrypto@gmail.com) whose youtube clips you have been watching and you think he is reputable says go to a sight, connect your ledger and confirm staking of all your crypto.... These are SCAMS!!! If someone approached you in the street and said, can you spare me $10? if you give me your bank card and Pin number and i will be back in 4mins max, i Promise.... would you do it? - i will leave that question open ended... if you want to make sure you don't make these mistakes in the future, put crypto aside and watch videos on Cyber Security, understand the hacks, understand what people are capable of
Just remind people to: NEVER ENTER YOUR SEED PHRASE INTO YOUR BROWSER. EVEN ON THE TREZOR SITE.
The wallets create a seed phrase randomly. NEVER USE A SEED THAT COMES WITH THE HARDWARE WALLET. There are some scammers that sell hardware wallets and include a pre generated seed in the package. If you use that, your funds will be stolen.
Alright, if you want to be paranoid like me, get yourself a Raspberry Pi, install FreeBSD on it and use the Electrum wallet to create a cold wallet. IMPORTANT: WRITE DOWN THE SEED OF THE WALLET ON A PIECE OF PAPER! (And also keep it secure, make some backup copies just in case) Then after the Pi has been set up, disconnect it from the internet and open the Electrum wallet to get your addresses for receiving the funds. If you want some ease of use, you can get the xpub keys from the Electrum wallet on the Pi and use that to create a read-only wallet on a PC that’s connected to the internet. That way you can monitor the funds of the cold wallet and also get new addresses for receiving funds.
You don't. You make another wallet with keys that you control, BACKUP THE KEYS/SEED PHRASE, and send the coins from Coinbase to the wallet who's keys you own. Do your own research as to what wallet to use that fits your needs, but eclair, breez, phoenix, and electrum are all good wallets for Android that are vetted by the community
Your coins are not on a usb , coins dont exist on any usb or any Hardware device you might have. Coins exist only on the blockchain and to access them you need your SEED PHRASE, your 12-24 word phrase is essentially your coins. If you’re going to make regular transactions the use a hotwallet. Hot wallets are safe as long as you generate it your seed offline ,write it down offline.
Yes the hole entire point of HW is that it is only a tool to access your funds. Your coins are not actually on the device, they never will be. Recovery is the entire purpose of a hardware wallet. I have a T1 and it is easy to use. Make sure you pick a wallet that supports your coins whatever they are. Most good wallets support a lot but check to make sure so you can actually use it. It will take you five minutes to set it up, 15 minutes to write your seed down and check it and 5 minutes to move your coins depending on how many you types you have to move. NEVER TYPE YOUR SEED IN A PC OR ANYWHERE. NEVER SHARE SEED. DONT STORE SEED DIGITALLY EVER ANYWHERE. TEST TRANSACTION PROCESS WITH SMALL AMOUNT FIRST. BE YOUR OWN BANK. It really is easier than it seems. Read the FAQ here in the sub to learn more. DYOR AND LEARN!
You assets are NOT in your cold wallet. They are on the Blockchain. Understand this statement thoroughly. Wallet is just a means to access your funds. Even if your wallet is lost or destroyed, your funds will be in your custody, as long as it is only you who knows your SEED phrase. Protect your seed phrase and you are good. You can get a new basic hardware wallet for $50 and restore your original wallet on it with your seed anytime.

Amazingly, the fiat world got sick of all this shit years ago, and invented banking regulations. Tight controls. Regulated. Audited. Yet 99% of the people here have been screaming "Keep regulation out of crypto!" No guys - centralised entities **must** be regulated if they hold other people's funds. They **must**. ​ * If your favourite blockchain cannot have its decentralized consensus reversed by court order, it's immune from regulation anyway * If your favourite blockchain ***can*** have its decentralized consensus reversed by court order, it was worthless as a cryptocurrency anyway, and you should worry more about that crypto than about its regulation * But centralized exchanges holding other people's funds "*on trust*" must be regulated. Hard. As hard as banks. I'm totally sick of people treating these unregulated pretending-to-be-a-bank-but-not-a-bank exchanges like banks. It's your own fault if you left your lifesavings on FTX. You had it coming. Same would apply if you lost it to a hack, bankruptcy or theft on any other exchange. No sympathy. Get your funds off into safe self-custody. Backup your Seed. `NOT YOUR SEED, NOT YOUR CRYPTO` p.s. If you've never wanted to move your crypto off the exchange because it's slow or too expensive in network fees to do so, then you're not holding the right crypto in the first place.
You should withdraw from coinbase to self-custody when you can, but don't panic and rush. Rushing is how you make a mistake. 1. buy a hardware wallet (coldcard, ledger or trezor) - buy directly from the manufacturer 2. download electrum while your HWW is in the mail. create a new wallet with electrum to get familiar with the software. if you want, try sending a tiny amount of btc to this test wallet and back to coinbase to see how it works 3. when your HWW arrives, follow the hardware wallet instructions to create a NEW random seed directly on the device. WRITE DOWN THE SEED CAREFULLY 4. open electrum and plug in your HWW wallet, create a NEW wallet using your hardware device as the seed 5. create a receive address in electrum. send a tiny test transaction from coinbase to this address. before you confirm the send, check the address on your coinbase withdraw matches the address SHOWN PHYSICALLY ON THE HARDWARE DEVICE. you can check the entire address string, but checking the first 5 and last 5 digits is "good enough" 6. erase your hardware wallet on the physical device 7. restore your hardware wallet from the seed you wrote down 8. open electrum and open your wallet using the hardware device. check that the bitcoin you sent during your test transaction is in there 9. send the rest of your coins from coinbase to your hardware-secured electrum wallet. you can re-use the test address, or create a new receive address. if you are transferring a lot of coin (use your own judgement), then break it into multiple sends and use a new receive address for each withdraw 10. best practice is to download and run bitcoin core (node) and connect electrum to your node. then you'll have your own node validating your own transactions secured by your hardware wallet. this is more advanced so don't worry about it on day 1, but i gotta recommend you learn how to do this
Ouch, that is the comprise vector right there. Sorry for your loss. To everyone else reading this: DO NOT EVER TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR SEED WORDS.
... did you try putting your SEED in your ROSE?
**SEED PHRASE** Remember it, store it securely, and never give it out
The way I see it… once you connect to ONE you have connected to ALL, and I think in certain case SPREADING SEED-PHRASES can be a good thing, besides “If EVERYONE is involved, then EVERYONE has something to lose. I say to the creators I have supported and holding their NFTs in my wallet, #ArbitrageMyWallet. #Yolo 🔥🔥🔥
Basically, you get a new receive address whenever you load the address. Its part of the Bitcoin design, where each transaction is stored separately in a TX. You will probably have hundreds of addresses over the time, and all of them are controlled via your SEED
Brazil back then: Gimme your money or pow pow Btazil today: GIMME YOUR SEED
Your question is hard to answer in a holistic way. Many cryptos now use a version of BIP-39 HD wallets to generate private keys deterministically from the 12, 15, 24 word seed phrase. Even if they do, the derivation path between the hardware wallet manufacturer and the software wallets native to the chain can vary in some cases. This means putting the words used in the HW wallet, into a software wallet, may generate a different set of private keys and leave your funds unrecoverable. If you are using just one blockchain, its easy to test. BACKUP YOUR REAL SEED PHRASE FIRST!! Make a new wallet in a software wallet native to the chain, then recover it onto the HW wallet, the derived addresses either match or they dont. If you are using lots of blockchains, best to buy a spare backup HW wallet from the same manufacturer. It would be very unlikely both would fail at the same time (maybe store one securely offsite), and then you would always be able to access your funds.
Thats the farm i can get used to. Just need SEED
No they dont. If someone logs in to your account NO WALLET INFORMATION IS THERE UNLESS YOU ENTER THE SEED PHRASE OR YOU BACKED UP YOUR PASSWORD. Its amazing how many of you tout yourself some sort of security connoisseur enough to post a tutorial yet are terribly misinformed.
They do that's why everyone has a SEED phrase
DONT A GIVE ANYOME YOU SEED PHRASE OR LET THEM CONNECT TO YOUR COMPUTER. Please add some more background on whats happening
Folks, BACK UP YOUR SEED PHRASE! My hard copy just saved my whole LTO wallet that I have 7000 LTO in(like $600). Logged me out for no reason and forgot my device completely. Thankfully I got logged back in no problem thanks to a good old fashioned paper with my password
THIS IS YOUR REMINDER TO BACK UP YOUR WALLET SEED PHRASE. (especially your Reddit vault)
I just can’t believe it’s another post like that. Guys have enough karma to post but have never seen somewhere on this sub that YOU DON’T PASTE YOUR FUCKING SEED ANYWHERE.
Will fidelity give the investors the SEED PHASE to put in their own ledger !!!! It will they want to tax people ????
1) this isn't a community. Everyone here is in it for themselves. Some of us actually want to see cool things happen in the world. 2) yes, stick to btc and ETH. Dont worry about other cool stuff, almost everyone you ask about cool stuff will just shill their bags. Learn about stuff yourself, by reading not watching videos, and decide for yourself. 3) just because some project is cool doesn't mean you'll make money with it. GRIN is cool as shit for example, but you're not going to make money on it because of it's emission schedule. For making money, stick to BTC and ETH. Use other stuff if you have a use for it. 4) 99% of everything is a scam. A common indicator though is if they are hand wavy about what their value proposition is or how something works. Default to "it's a scam" and then wait to be proven wrong or you'll get took. Don't sign transactions unless you're 100% certain what they'll do. Get a hardware wallet and WRITE YOUR FUCKING SEED DOWN ON A PIECE OF PAPER.
**here is the [New York Times article](https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/12/technology/bitcoin-passwords-wallets-fortunes.html).** > Stefan Thomas, a German-born programmer living in San Francisco, has two guesses left to figure out a password that is worth, as of this week, about $220 million. > The password will let him unlock a small hard drive, known as an IronKey, which contains the private keys to a digital wallet that holds 7,002 Bitcoin. While the price of Bitcoin dropped sharply on Monday, it is still up more than 50 percent from just a month ago, when it passed its previous all-time high of around $20,000. > The problem is that Mr. Thomas years ago lost the paper where he wrote down the password for his IronKey, which gives users 10 guesses before it seizes up and encrypts its contents forever. He has since tried eight of his most commonly used password formulations — to no avail. There's a right way and a wrong way to store your coins. This guy chose the wrong way. His coins are gone forever. What's the right way, you ask? Buy a hardware wallet. Let it choose a new seed phrase for you. Write that seed phrase down on paper (or use something like a Steel Wallet, or both. I do both). SECURE YOUR SEED PHRASE!!! Move your coins to there. **The lesson to learn here is this: He didn't secure his coins correctly. That's why he lost them.**
I go to the store, i buy a notebook, i buy a pen, i write the words "govern off harsh flee admit saddle episode awake bus decorate hotel any" and i make sure to write THIS IS MY SEED PHRASE with a big black marker I then close the notebook and put it in my desk drawer in my house located at "Rue de Bruxelles 391, 1480 Tubize, Belgium" with door code 1269
I gave them my SEED IN A WALLET 🤭😏
To be more clear. As apparently this seems like a joke. I know it’s ironic as hell but I don’t have my Pin because I was locked out of the ledger itself. Now my dog ate the SEED phrase.
NEVER STORE YOUR SEED ON AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE. The entire purpose of a Ledger is that it is air-gapped meaning it is disconnected from the internet. The second you type your seed into an electronic device you're compromised. Buy a fireproof safe and store your seed in it.
That’s a serious amount of money. You should store your bitcoin like it’s worth 10x what it is now. A whole bitcoin should be stored on a hardware wallet (known as a “cold wallet” because the seed phrase is not connected to the internet). A ledger nano S plus is only $80 and pretty easy to use. Is that worth protecting your one butcoin that could be worth $250,000 in a few years? If you use a phone app, that’s known as a “hot wallet” because your seed phrase is on an internet-connected device. For phone app wallets, I like Blue Wallet and Muun Wallet, or you could use Nunchuk Bitcoin Wallet. If you use a cold wallet or a hot wallet, make sure you BACK UP YOUR SEED/RECOVERY PHRASE or you risk losing your bitcoin forever.
All self-custody bitcoin wallets have the basic and essential role of generating a 12/24 word seed phrase when you go through the steps of setting up the wallet. The 12/24 word seed phrase can restore your wallet should your hardware wallet ever be destroyed, lost, etc. This means ONLY YOU SHOULD KNOW THE SEED PHRASE. NEVER SHOW ANYONE AND NEVER ENTER IT IN ANYWHERE ONLINE. YOU SHOULD ONLY EVER ENTER IN IF WANTING TO RECOVER YOUR WALLET IN ANOTHER WALLET SUCH AS ANOTHER HARDWARE WALLET, FOR EXAMPLE. If someone else gets your seed phrase they will be able to steal your funds. There are also advanced options like adding a 25th word / passphrase to your 24 word seed phrase
Check the manufacturer's websites and buy directly from them. It's the safest way to buy a hardware wallet. If you can't, check Seedsigner out. You can also build a PC from old scraps and create your own cold storage. Or buy an USB 3.0 stick (+16GB) and install Tails OS. It has preinstalled Electrum Wallet - generate new wallet and **WRITE DOWN THE SEED WORDS** before moving any sats in.
To put it simply NO Learn from this DONOT SHARE YOUR SEED PHRASE 👀 Only thing you can do is report to authorities but theres really nothing they can do unless the criminal is located in the same country as you and even then I would hold out hope.. As said before LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES or lose more money.
