You can find a full list of wallets here. My favourite wallet is probably Electrum.

Hardware wallets are well-recommended across the crypto-community.

I'll go on the record and say the Hardware Wallets are better than software and paper wallets for all except a handful of opsec/infosec experts. Security isn't about absolutes. It's all relative and complexity/operator skill are of the utmost importance.

They’re not mandatory, but they make it simple to keep your cryptocurrency stash secure.

The most popular hardware wallets are the Ledger Nano S and Trezor.

Check out my reviews for both:

• LiveCoinWatch: a cleaner and better-looking alternative to CoinMarketCap.
• CoinGecko: like CoinMarketCap, but ranks cryptocurrencies
• OnChainFX: an advanced version of CoinMarketCap. This one’s my favourite.

  • Crypto Multireddit (adaptable)
  • /r/Bitcoin

• DataDash: A one-stop shop for all things cryptocurrency-related. Discusses the latest news, covers market movements and conducts video reviews of popular and upcoming cryptocurrencies. Usually top-quality stuff. It’s unsurprising that this channel now has over 300,000 subscribers.
• Doug Polk Crypto: A combination of humour, honesty, and sharp critical analysis has made Doug Polk a near-instant community favourite. It also might help that he’s a well-known professional American poker player (who runs a poker YouTube channel too).
• Ameer Rosic: Excellent, no-nonsense videos about cryptocurrency investment from entrepreneur, marketing expert, and blockchain evangelist. Videos are uploaded irregularly.
• David Hay: Discusses the latest cryptocurrency news, explores new and emerging cryptocurrencies, and outlines his personal investment strategy.

I host this website with Siteground. They’re competitively priced (£2.75/month), have 1-click installs of many popular tools, and the website seems responsive.

For my WordPress theme, I use MyThemeShop’s Schema. It’s simple, but it does everything I want (for now). In the future, I’m thinking about building something with Elementor instead.
