Trezor Crypto Wallet Review
A cold hardware wallet is a must, if you own more than a few grand worth of crypto. It creates an extra layer of protection for your assets. Now keep in mind, you absolutely must make sure you never digitally save your private seed phrase, and yes, that includes typing things up so you can print out. Once you do that, your coins should be save.
I find Trezor to be the best hardware wallet in the game. And yes that is the one I personally use. I actually bought multiple of these, just to spread my holdings out. Trezor is basically the original mainstream hardware wallet, and what's good about them is that they never had any controversy about them.
They have 3 versions.
Model One, is the original Trezor hardware wallet and costs $59. It looks identical to the one I bought 8 years ago. And frankly, for 99% of use cases, this is probably all you'd need. The only downside is that it doesn't have an encrypted chip, which means if anyone ever finds your Model One, with enough effort they can hack it and take all your money.
Ultimately I recommend their next version up, the Trezor Safe 3 for $79. It's similar in functionality, but it comes with the chip, so the only way anyone is getting into your Trezor is if you give them your PIN.
The Trezor Safe 5 is the top model and it costs double at $169. It comes with a touch screen and it does make life a little easier. That said, I personally treat my Trezors as cold storage(I use my Zypto wallet as my hot wallet), so I don't interact with them all that much...and as such, I actually think this higher level model is pointless and just creates extra points of failure. A high tech screen can crack, stop working, and then you are shit out of luck.
