The trust wallet I put my invested bitcoins in, is the trust wallet safe for my bitcoins?
i've been using trust wallet for years now , and it's been safe for me over the years . although , i heard on some security breaches where the company loses almost $4million   but i think they reimburse users
and also, trust Wallet mobile apps and extension are security audited and pen-tested by the internal security of the trust wallet as well as external 3rd party security auditors too besides, its a non custodial wallet so its managed by you , just ensure that you are vigilant by not downloading malwares
TrustWallet is secure, although it is not as secure as other open-source wallets. Trust wallet is a closed-source wallet. Because your private key cannot be publicly validated; only the developers know how it was generated, your security is not guaranteed, and the wallet can be readily hacked.

As a beginner, I always recommend the Electrum wallet for its ease of use, as well as the Blue wallet for iOS.
