A lot of people have always worried about the security of bitcoin and cryptocurrency which is why they have decided to stay away from investing in it. You must also note that even the fiat money that you may have can also be liable to theft. The earlier you stop giving flimsy excuses, the better. The decision is yours!
In reality crypto currencies are far more trusted, secure than the fiat one. First layer of protection that we get is, its completely virtual one and no one can physically steal it from you if you are walking down the street and making uncomfortable visits by thefts. Off course in the crypto currency there comes another threat which we recognise as the hacking of wallets but to be honest its very rare that you will end up in hacked wallet because it can only be done with the phishing and nothing else. There is no way to get entered into the crypto without that. Believe me most of the cases that we see as hacking attempts are coming from the fact that they are phished wallet. With extra precaution one can avoid that too.
