@ -54,21 +54,7 @@ A hardware wallet, such as the
[Ledger hardware wallet](https://www.ledger.com/), offers a great blend of
security and convenience for cryptocurrencies. It effectively automates the
process of offline signing while retaining nearly all the convenience of an FS
wallet. In contrast to offline signing with paper wallets, which we regard as
highly secure, offline signing with hardware wallets presents some security
concerns:
* Keys could be leaked by a malicious app on the hardware wallet
* Keys could be stolen by a malicious client via a bug in the hardware wallet's
operating system
* Keys could be read from storage if hardware wallet is lost or stolen
To keep your hardware wallet tokens safe, we suggest:
* Only install apps using the vendor's app manager
* Keep the hardware wallet's firmware up to date
* Put keys for large amounts of tokens into their own hardware wallets. Store
in a secure location.
