A lot of people are confused. CEXs can get hacked, but hardware wallets are not immune either. But seriously, keeping your keys offline is still the safest move. Are hardware wallets dead? Absolutely not. Still the best tool for the long term, but you need to be careful. You need to treat the rules as non-negotiable: buy directly from the manufacturer—tampered devices are real. Also be careful with bogus support emails, and always verify firmware and authenticity.
