Hello,
I would like to know what would be the best option to store either eth or btc.
I have read all you said and I understand that an Air Gapped computer would be best but then how do you transfer funds if you need to? My guess is that you only connect it to the internet when you need to, right? But I think this way the hacker can interfere exactly when you connect it and steal everything . Maybe 2 networks would solve this problem? I do have 2 networks but from time to time I am forced to use the other one therefore I dont have a network that it is not used 100%
I have seen that there is an airgap wallet made for tezos, btc, eth etc. that uses 2 phones . 1 phone for cold storage with no conections (no sim and airplane mode activated probably or even shut down) and the other phone which is your daily phone . I think this would be a better choice because when you do a transaction you can use network from SIM which I suppose that it is more secure. I am not an expert so thats why I want to ask for your opinion but in my mind this seems to be a better way than computers because I know that phone are harder to hack (unless you have an app installed) and also because of SIM network.
Hardware wallets still have to connect to a computer and as we can see in this post they are not really safe... even with an airgapped computer you still need a network to dowload ledger live , update software etc.
In conclusion , am I right about 2 phones being more secure or would it be better to have a hardware wallet (ledger) connected to an airgapped computer? (What I didn't take in consideration is that the app itself could be malicious maybe... I don t know , thats why I ask
) . Sorry if I sound dumb 
)
If airgapped computer with ledger is the answer can you please tell me what a proper airgap setup would mean and how should I do it?
Thanks in advance!
All the best
