The most important mistake to avoid as a cryptocurrency owner is leaving crypto on an exchange.
Why?
If an exchange gets hacked, you will lose money. The hardware wallets below allow you to withdraw the coins into your own wallet and have true control over your XRP.
The Ledger Nano X is Ledger's premium hardware wallet. The wallet is housed in a strong sleek, hard plastic enclosure with a high quality stainless steel enclosure. It features a crisp screen that makes handling the wallet very simple, and the included bluetooth functionality makes it ideal for on-the-go CRP transfers via the Ledger Live app for your Android devices.
The Ledger Nano S is Ledger's original hardware wallet. The wallet is housed in a strong plastic frame and utilizes a small screen to confirm transactions on. Unlike the Ledger Nano X, there is no bluetooth functionality, but at its lower price point, it may be a good tradeoff if your are mostly using the wallet to hold XRP for long periods of time.
The Trezor Model T is Trezor's premium hardware wallet. The wallet is housed in a sturdy matte plastic frame with a high quality full-color touch screen display, making it easier to use than Ledger's button navigation system.
The Trezor One is Trezor's original hardware wallet. The wallet is housed in a matte plastic frame and utilizes a small screen with two buttons to confirm transactions on. Unlike the Trezor Model T, there is no Full color touchscreen, but at its lower price point, it may be a good tradeoff if your are mostly using the wallet to hold XRP for long periods of time and not using the wallet often.
In this example, we are using a Ledger Nano X with Ledger Live.
