Common Questions

Straight answers to the questions beginners ask most — without the jargon.

Is Ledger Live safe?
Ledger Live is Ledger’s official app for managing your hardware wallet and crypto assets. When downloaded directly from Ledger’s official website (ledger.com), it is safe to use. The biggest risk is downloading from unofficial sources or fake websites designed to steal your funds. Always verify you are on the official site before downloading, and never share your 24-word recovery phrase with anyone — Ledger will never ask for it.

Is CoinSpot safe?
CoinSpot is one of Australia’s longest-running cryptocurrency exchanges and holds an Australian Digital Currency Exchange (DCE) registration. Like any centralised exchange, funds held on CoinSpot are not truly self-custodied — the exchange holds your private keys on your behalf. It is generally considered reputable for buying crypto, but keeping large amounts on any exchange long-term carries risk. Understanding self-custody is recommended for anyone holding significant value.

Is Trust Wallet safe?
Trust Wallet is a non-custodial mobile wallet, meaning you control your own private keys rather than a company holding them for you. When set up correctly and your seed phrase is stored securely offline, it is considered a safe option for beginners. The main risks are losing your seed phrase, downloading a counterfeit version of the app from unofficial sources, or keeping large amounts in any hot wallet long-term. Always download from the official Trust Wallet website or your device’s verified app store.

Is MetaMask safe?
MetaMask is a widely-used non-custodial browser wallet for Ethereum and compatible networks. It is safe when downloaded from the official metamask.io website and used with care. The main risks include phishing sites that impersonate MetaMask, fake browser extensions, and connecting your wallet to malicious decentralised applications. Always verify you are installing the genuine browser extension, and never enter your seed phrase on any website — for any reason.

How do I learn Bitcoin self-custody?
Bitcoin self-custody means holding your own private keys rather than leaving Bitcoin on an exchange. Start by understanding what a seed phrase is, how hardware and software wallets differ, and how to back up your wallet safely. The key steps are: choose a wallet type, set it up correctly, write down and securely store your seed phrase offline, and understand how to send and receive Bitcoin safely before moving any significant amount.

What is the safest way to store crypto?
The safest way to store crypto long-term is using a hardware wallet in self-custody, where you control your own private keys and seed phrase. This means your funds are not held by an exchange or third party and cannot be lost if a company fails. Your seed phrase — typically 12 or 24 words — should be written down on paper and stored securely offline. Never photograph it, save it to a cloud service, store it on your device, or share it with anyone.
