I have a significant amount of ETH in a Ledger wallet. I store the wallet, along with the phrase words, in a safe in my house. I know it’s extremely dangerous to store the Ledger and the words together but I’m really at a loss as to the best way to secure these things. I’m not an active trader so I don’t need easy access to the Ledger. I used to store the ETH on Gemini but got nervous with the Earn debacle and took them off. I’m worried I’m no safer now than on Gemini. Any suggestions?
Heard of many horror stories of people forgetting the phrase from their head
25th word lost ( if you dont go for the maximum length and have a general idea about what it was)is still recoverable, and just keep it in plaintext everywhere else on paper.
If you keep it alphanumerical, use like 8-10 letters, doable via brute force as well.
