even then, based on what I know. Wether its trezor or ledger, physical access on the drive is not enough in and of itself.

Yes it is.

However the chances of someone breaking in, finding it, knowing what it is and knowing how to get at it are on the astronomical side. And it's also neutralised by having a 25th password. But who knows whether new angles will be found?

For me online security is obviously the big one and so far they're fine.



That was a good read but I'm still 50/50 with me leaning a tad more towards ledger. Either way they both for the most part seem like really great choices, did come across the model t for trezor. That's an interesting price tag. But really. For just btc and LTC. Either the trezor one or nano s seems like they would be the more than sufficient models. Setting aside what seems like possibly better security in the higher models which one might then argue. If you're going to get a hw wallet. Just go big or go home.

Def more research to do but of the what seems like 6 diff. companies. They're the two to really consider.
