Watch out! Better to use the regular self-custody online wallets than use a hardwallet that has been rigged by scammers.

Blunt lies, online wallet are the most unsafe type of wallet that anyone most avoid, including you, because cause I see that you have no idea about crypto wallets, a crypto wallet that's always online is prone to hacks than offline wallet, some called this offline wallets airgapped, this is a security step on it's own, many hacks online are possible because people use online wallets.

Avoid hardware wallets that are custodial, and also avoid buying then from third party locations and stores, but make sure you don't trust online wallets either, they are easy to lose your funds or coins as well..

One more thing, make sure the crypto wallet or hardware wallet is open source, codes can be insert into wallets engine if they are closed source without users realising it.
