Currently there is absolutely no procedure to make a cold storage that is 100% safe.

Or maybe you can just be clear and point out how my approach of cold storage will be hackable.
Saying no procedure is 100% safe sounds like speculation to me.

This guy doesn't even understand how Bitcoin works. Rambled on about a bunch of useless points to get paid through that Steemit platform. No, I didn't even read, because thankfully the other guy pasted his main points. By all means, don't use a hardware wallet. Maybe you shouldn't be using Bitcoin either, since you need everything done via holding your hand.

You don't need to read if you don't want to. No, I don't use any hardware wallet. And no, whether I should or shouldn't be using bitcoin is 1) out of topic, and 2) is none of your business.

Not only Trezor has that capacity to import your seeds in another compatible wallet with the seed of a hardware wallet. Ledger Nano S has also support for it. I think that paper wallets are a pain in the a** while hardware wallets can be used both ways, even hot and even cold storage depending on the user.

Yes, the hardware wallet has support, but please note the support is limited. I didn't suggest paper wallet. I suggested a digitally-encrypted paper wallet. Yeah, hardware wallet can be used for cold storage (but not recommended, except as hot wallet just as an example), in which you will secure the recovery seeds. And securing the recovery seeds is no different from securing the private keys. Some pro-hardware wallet people never realize they actually have to secure their recovery seeds precisely and exactly the way they would secure the private keys. In fact, for such people not realizing this means their security isn't really high despite using hardware wallet.
