A really useful advice. Thank you for this video and for the entire series, Chris! I'm a fan and a follower (both here and on YouTube).

Thanks for the support mate. I really appreciate you taking the time to write a comment.

Spot on, I find it frustrating when people store their coins on their phones. I just wrote about this recently, phones are not secure not even for photos, so how can people think it's secure for btc?

I agree but if people are not aware they cannot make the better choice. That's why we do what we do right? :)

:( thats scary ... i have Jaxx and Xapo, but now I have to buy Trezor or Ledger nano s. What you think of both of this ?.. i am afraid :( ... i am young yet, 22, and going all in, into crypto, i dont have job income, just small deals i manage to get, but now need to afford a hardware wallet and shipping and else, will worth it but this world is a savage jungle, thanks for heads up, now im a bit scare :)

Believe it or not after publishing this episode I reached out to Trezor, Ledger and KeepKey to see if they would send me a sample to review on the show. So far Trezor and KeepKey have replied saying no. KeepKey said 'maybe later'. I'm very surprised Trezor are not more eager to support the community.

McAfee's company has an office in North Carolina, however, his mining operation is in the state of Washington. He discussed it a little bit when he was on The Crypto Show last week.
