Mobile wallet: Comfort vs Security

Recommended Posts

Comfort vs security, I think that in addition to following the basic security rules in mobile wallets, one should bear in mind that a wallet in this type of device should only have the amount of money that one considers necessary to use during the day or the week.

At the end of the day, in physical wallets one does not carry all their money with them, this would ultimately be another security measure in case of theft and even hacking of the device.

Yes, a convenient mobile wallet if we compare it to a desktop wallet, where we need to open my computer and connect the internet first

I think mobile wallets are very easy and comfortable to use. They allow you a very fast and convenient way to access your coins, since most people carry their mobile device with them anyway. On the downside, mobile wallets are the least secure form of Bitcoin wallets. When downloading an Android wallet for Bitcoin this means that the private key will be stored on your mobile device. And if the device goes missing, so does the private key. 

 

I think the biggest problem when using a mobile wallet is in case your device gets stolen. In such a case, an experienced hacker might gain access to your coins quicker than you will be able to recover them.

 

So, what do you think about comfort vs security while using mobile wallet? 

If mobile wallets keep the private key on the device, they also give you the opportunity to export it and save it on your computer or transfer it to paper, but there are mobile wallets that have a desktop version, I personally use Coinomi that started on their mobile version and now it has its desktop version compatible with the mobile to be able to store your cryptocurrencies.

Well, that is, you are one of those few who use it - it's still a drop in the bucket - here they proudly wrote that 200 million users think by downloading the application - and around the world - scatter all that remains in countries? zilch, nothing.

I think it all depends on how you see it. There are people who have two cell phones, so one could take it to the street and the other would stay, seeing it like this, the one who remains at home has a wallet. In any case, if the one left at home is stolen, the computer that also stores the passwords would be stolen anyway. Likewise, the phone is less secure than a computer in terms of the wallet, but if we talk about viruses, the computer is prone to infection. Everything is a question of probability.

The mobile wallet is an application for smart devices, through which we can save money or associate other means of payment (credit and debit cards), to make or receive payments, and make transfers to third parties. The mobile wallet, like credit and debit cards, is associated with a bank account

today, in general, both websites and mobile apps are under threat. so I don't think that the mobile app is less secure than the website. it is also very convenient, opened the app and everything is at your fingertips. Yes, you need to work on security, but if you properly protect your data, everything will be fine.

I think that the mobile crypto wallet is not only secure, but also quite secure, you only need to enable cloud storage of data on your phone, so that if you lose your phone, you can quickly restore all the data

I think mobile wallets can be really comfortable as we have our phones nowadays always with us, but the security about it still has a lot of questions to ask, because it is easy to forget your phone somewhere or somebody can steal it, instead of computers I wouldn't recommend it to use for large amounts of crypto currencies because it is easy to get control of your phone.

I believe that it is necessary to store cryptocurrency in trusted and reliable wallets,so that you know for sure that they will not go anywhere without your demand.

I zero that mobile wallets such as Trust wallet are very safe, what we must take into account is to keep the key in a different place, not on the phone and much less on the internet network, the best thing is to use paper and pencil and write it down and keep it in a safe place for example a safe and in the case of losing our phone, we can recover our wallet.

Creo que las carteras móviles son muy fáciles y cómodas de usar. Le permiten acceder a sus monedas de una manera muy rápida y conveniente, ya que la mayoría de las personas llevan su dispositivo móvil consigo de todos modos. En el lado negativo, las carteras móviles son la forma menos segura de carteras Bitcoin. Al descargar una billetera de Android para Bitcoin, esto significa que la clave privada se almacenará en su dispositivo móvil. Y si el dispositivo se pierde, también lo hace la clave privada. 

 

Creo que el mayor problema al usar una billetera móvil es en caso de que le roben el dispositivo. En tal caso, un pirata informático experimentado podría obtener acceso a sus monedas más rápido de lo que usted podrá recuperarlas.

 

Entonces, ¿qué opinas sobre la comodidad frente a la seguridad al usar la billetera móvil? 

Well, mobile wallets help us to have our money stored in digital format, and we can carry out transactions. What you have to take into account is how reliable that wallet is, because it is not only based on comfort and speed, but also on security above all. The reason is because there is stored money and personal data of the user. You should look for a reliable wallet so that you can store money and be able to carry out transactions.

Yes but also mobile wallets are becoming safer with time, now for example I have to use my fingerprint to access my wallets and that is really helpful if someone stoles my phone, also the first thing you have todo when lost or stolen, its to block your phone using your google account so at least they will have to reset the phone for further use

Before creating a wallet, almost all mobile wallets are given a secret phrase that is asked to save, it will then help in case of loss of your phone to restore the wallet.

Correct, in all wallets 12 security words are generated and this will help you to restore your account in a moment

I understand your concern my friend, but nowadays mobile wallets when registering provide you with a series of words that ask you to keep them in a safe place and it does not necessarily have to be on your cell phone.

Mobile wallets offer enormous facilities such as accessing your account at any time or fingerprint identification. Mobile wallets are the best option if you need to always carry your wallet with you or you're going to make daily transactions. Each cryptocurrency portfolio generally has a number of mechanisms aimed at preventing theft or fraudulent use.

When choosing a portfolio, many of us pay a lot of attention to the issue of comfort when handling the portfolio. I like to use wallets that are quite easy to handle, without so many complications in relation to their interface but above all that is quite secure, since this is one of the main characteristics that a portfolio must comply with when being chosen. I prefer a 100% secure portfolio to a 100% comfortable portfolio.

You must choose a wallet that gives you access to your private keys, you must write them down on a piece of paper and keep them, do not leave them stored on your mobile, that way if your mobile is lost or damaged with your private keys you can recover the balance of your assets

    • Международный поставщик биржевых фондов WisdomTree стал одним из первых эмитентов, чьи криптовалютные ETP котируются на LSE. WisdomTree , международный биржевой фонд ( ETF ) и поставщик биржевых продуктов ( ETP ), получил одобрение Британского управления по финансовому регулированию на размещение своих ETP с физическим обеспечением Биткойна и Ethereum на Лондонской фондовой бирже ( LSE ), отметив поворотный момент для отрасли и профессиональных инвесторов из Великобритании.   Криптовалютные ETP компании уже котируются на других фондовых биржах, включая Deutsche Börse Xetra, Swiss Stock Exchange SIX и Euronext в Париже и Амстердаме. Ожидается, что ETP Биткойна (BTCW) и Эфириума (ETHW) WisdomTree начнут торговаться 28 мая. Стоит отметить, что биржевые ноты (ETN), предназначенные для торговли на LSE, предназначены только для профессиональных инвесторов и будут работать в определенных торговых сегментах. Каждый криптовалютный ETN может предлагать до трех различных валютных линий, что повышает гибкость для инвесторов, стремящихся диверсифицировать свое воздействие на криптовалюту через традиционные финансовые рынки.
    • CryptoNews of the Week     – On 20-21 May, bitcoin surged sharply for the first time since 9 April, approaching $72,000. This rally was triggered by data showing a sharp increase in investments in BTC-ETFs, reaching a nine-week high. According to CoinShares, investments in crypto funds rose by $932 million last week, following an inflow of $130 million the previous week, marking the highest level in nine weeks. Additionally, Grayscale's ETF saw its first-ever inflow of $18 million. Analysts believe this surge in digital asset investments was a response to the May Consumer Price Index (CPI) report in the United States.   – After bitcoin rose above $71,000, its price hit new all-time highs in the local currencies of several Asian and South American countries. According to CoinMarketCap, BTC reached a record level of 11.2 million yen at the start of trading on 21 May in Japan, marking the first time the flagship asset's value exceeded 11 million yen. Bitcoin also hit a peak in Argentina, reaching 63.8 million Argentine pesos, slightly above the 14 March high. In the Philippines, bitcoin briefly climbed to 4.18 million pesos, the highest level since mid-March 2024. BTC prices in several other countries, including the UK, Australia, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Egypt, Israel, Norway, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Turkey, also matched or were very close to their mid-March peak prices.   – Santiment noted that bitcoin had not shown positive dynamics due to small traders selling off. According to The Block Research, the rate of new BTC wallet openings fell to a six-year low post-halving, reflecting a general decline in enthusiasm after the failed April Bull Rally. However, whales started actively buying BTC from small players, driving the growth at the beginning of the current week.   – Kyle Schneps, Foundry's director, believes that the introduction of a 30% tax on the electricity used by BTC miners could collapse the industry in the US. Darin Feinstein, founder of Core Scientific, shares a similar view. He believes the proposed energy tax legislation by the current White House administration could significantly damage the US economy. Schneps predicts mining companies will seek new regions to continue their operations, with the Middle East becoming a preferred location. In 2023, Russia ranked second in mining volumes after the US. BitRiver's calculations showed Russian miners produced about 54,000 BTC (around $3.5 billion) last year, with an average of 22 GW of mining capacity (compared to 1 GW in 2022). In the US, 143,000 BTC were mined over the same period, using 5.3 GW of power (up from 3-4 GW in 2022).     – Haseeb Qureshi, managing partner at Dragonfly Capital, expects the Biden administration to soften its policy towards the digital asset industry soon. He believes US authorities do not want to lose the votes of cryptocurrency users in the upcoming presidential elections. While a complete policy reversal is unlikely, some easing of the stance is expected. According to former CFTC chairman Chris Giancarlo, “Donald Trump could reasonably claim the title of the first US cryptocurrency president due to the launch of regulated bitcoin futures in his first year in office”.   – The leading altcoin surged even more than bitcoin on 20-21 May. Bloomberg analysts reported that the SEC (US Securities and Exchange Commission) had changed its stance on the launch of spot ETFs for Ethereum. The regulator requested expedited updates to applications for such funds, with the first decision (from VanEck) expected on 23 May. Following this news, Ethereum's price soared by over 25%, reaching a peak of $3833. According to Coinglass, the total amount of liquidations and forced closures of short positions on crypto exchanges at that time amounted to $340 million. A total of 78,800 positions were liquidated, with the largest individual liquidation occurring on the HTX exchange, amounting to $3.1 million for the ETH/USDT pair.   – QCP Capital analysts believe that if spot ETH-ETF applications are approved, Ethereum's price could surpass $5,000 by the end of the year. Standard Chartered expects capital inflows into such funds to reach $15-45 billion (2-9 million ETH) in the first year. This influx would drive the asset's price to $8,000 with bitcoin at $150,000. Bold forecasts from the bank's analysts suggest that if market dynamics remain positive, Ethereum could reach $14,000, and bitcoin could rise to $200,000 by 2025.   – Markus Thielen, an analyst at 10x Research, predicted that bitcoin's breakthrough of the $68,300 resistance on 20 May could catalyse a powerful rally. QCP Capital expects the main cryptocurrency to reach $74,000 in the coming months. The company's economists believe that institutional acceptance of cryptocurrency is accelerating, and improving global economic conditions create a favourable environment for capital inflows into risky assets. The approaching US presidential elections also improve investor sentiment.   – The latest version of the GPT-4o artificial intelligence from OpenAI predicts that bitcoin's price on 1 August 2024 will be in the range of $76,348 to $89,108, considering current market factors and historical trends. The Anthropic AI model, Claude 3 Opus, offers an even more optimistic forecast, indicating a range between $105,072 and $167,808 by the specified date.   – Linus Torvalds, creator of the Linux operating system, is highly sceptical of digital assets. He expresses bewilderment and regret over claims of cryptocurrencies' long-term value and the omnipotence of AI technologies. Torvalds believes cryptocurrencies are excellent tools for fraud and are widely used in various Ponzi schemes. "I don't believe in cryptocurrencies and see them as a tool for taking money from naive and impressionable users, just as I don't believe in Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, or the Easter Bunny," he stated.   – Peter Schiff, a well-known financier and advocate of physical gold, has once again declared bitcoin a "dead cryptocurrency." Like Linus Torvalds, his negative comments aim to prevent potential investors from making a serious mistake by investing in this "pseudo-asset." However, the "gold bug" Schiff promised that if bitcoin enthusiasts stop comparing the cryptocurrency to gold, he would cease publicly criticising it.   – The court found Craig Wright guilty of perjury. "Dr Wright's attempts to prove he was/is Satoshi Nakamoto represent the most severe abuse of procedure [...]" the court's decision stated. "It is evident that Wright deliberately created fake documents to support false claims and used the courts as a means of fraud." "Wright's testimony was at best unreliable [...] and at worst fabricated," the judge declared, expressing complete confidence that Wright repeatedly lied to the court in his testimony. These perjury facts may now be referred to the British prosecutor's office. However, in a tweet on 20 May, Wright announced his intention to appeal the decision.   – Controversial blogger and former kickboxer Andrew Tate announced his intention to completely abandon fiat and invest over $100 million in bitcoin. He aims to break free from "banks, their money, and other scams." Tate promised to provide evidence of his actions. It is noteworthy that Andrew Tate, a millionaire and former MMA fighter, is also known for his misogynistic statements. All his channels on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram are blocked.  It is known that Tate and his brother had been arrested in Romania on charges of human trafficking and rape. According to Romanian police, Andrew and Tristan recruited women for pornography. Romania TV reported in late 2022 that Swedish eco-activist Greta Thunberg might have been involved in their arrest.

    • Акции MicroStrategy обошли по динамике роста биткоин   Известная организация MicroStrategy по итогам 1-го квартала этого года продемонстрировала уверенные финансовые показатели. Примечательно, что за последние 12 месяцев ценные бумаги компании уверенно обошли флагманский криптоактив по динамике роста. Акции MicroStrategy выросли более чем на 500%, достигнув отметки $1279 в ходе сегодняшних торгов. Что касается Bitcoin, то за указанный срок он вырос примерно на 166%. По мнению многих экспертов, текущая динамика ценных бумаг MSTR отражает уверенность инвесторов в перспективах организации и доверие к ее руководству.   На финансовые показатели MicroStrategy в первую очередь благоприятно повлиял уверенный рост самого биткоина, который с начала 2023 года находится в фазе уверенного бычьего тренда. В марте 2021 года компания имела в резерве чуть более 91 тыс. биткоинов, но к концу 2022-го MicroStrategy увеличила свои резервы до 132,5 тыс. BTC. Всего пару месяцев назад компания увеличила данный показатель до 205 тыс. монет. Стоит также отметить, что в марте этого года биткоин уверенно обновил предыдущий исторический максимум и достиг отметки $73 800. Сложившаяся динамика говорит о том, что инвесторы готовы активно вкладывать средства в MSTR. Это неудивительно, учитывая операционный бизнес компании и перспективы ее роста.
