Hardware wallets

Hardware wallets; I am sure we are all familiar with the concept of storing our cryptocurrencies in a wallet, in fact if you are reading this then you already own a remitano wallet. What you may not know however is that there are two kinds of cryptocurrency wallets; software and hardware wallets. If you are a new to cryptocurrency like I am then most of your coins are probably stored on exchanges such as remitano and there is usually no problem with that, however as longas your coins are on an exchange they are technically not your coins. If by chance the exchange gets hacked and coins get stolen your coins are automatically affected. This is one of the major reasons for hardware wallets as the name implies they are wallets you can actually hold, they also store your coins without connecting to the internet reducing chances of any hack and help store your private keys.
