For the first few days it was a normal Electrum Wallet. Then I made it a read only wallet and deleted the first one
There is little point when you're generating the wallet on an online computer and making it a watch-only wallet afterwards. It'll only protect you if your computer gets compromised afterwards (assuming you deleted the wallet properly without any means to recover it). It does nothing if the malware is already in your computer, which is more often than not the case.
