We all keep a lot of personal information on our phones and obviously dont want to share our correspondence, cryptocurrency wallets, or contacts to become a part of the public domain. Nonetheless, in some cases, authorities can ask you to provide full access to your device.
Is this even legal? Can you refuse to give your phone to law enforcement? How can you protect your cryptocurrency wallet?
https://forklog.media/how-to-protect-your-crypto-wallet-during-phone-search/Wait.. do you guys store your private keys online or offline in your device like smartphone or computer? Damn, you shouldn't.
Use a device that is used only to store your private keys, it is private keys and it needs private place. So use hardware wallet or something that is only for it.
People prefer to use mobile wallet because they want to get easy access to their asset, but it's too risky I agree with you that hardware wallet is the best option, they might use a mobile wallet but they have to keep their private key in the safest place, not in their smartphone storage, if they still keep that sensitive information on their phone once they lose their phone then they will lose all those coins.
