Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the hash power Academy my name is Jake scanland I am the lead educator here at the Academy and the subject of today is Bitcoin Hardware wallets these are physical devices that secure the private keys of your Bitcoin that is to say that the Bitcoin is not physically or digitally inside this device but instead your ability to spend the Bitcoin that is what is secured by these devices your private key is the the magical password that enables you to move that Bitcoin to the next wallet because Bitcoin is just data data stored in a blockchain that is updated from Bitcoin mining from the energy sector and so you have this process of blocks being added to the chain through energy that is the security system of this network now the parallel to have with this is that when you spend money on your credit card or your debit card it’s the same thing your money is not in the card it’s just that the card is the authentication device to actually spend it or through a payment terminal you are just confirming your ability to spend it and with these devices they’re going to develop better more uh shall I say more enjoyable experience to to use over time because right now they’re clunky and some people don’t don’t even want to use Hardware devices they would rather Trust their Bitcoin on a platform or with a custodian or one of these other types of IOU setups such as an ETF where it’s you obfuscate all of the responsibility of securing your own Bitcoin and placing it in the trustful hands of someone else which can go extremely wrong and there is a precedent of history in the first 16 years of Bitcoin of people trusting others with their digital money and poof they disappear that is not what we want to happen to you at all so the best advice I can give to you is you need to experiment with this everything in this phase of Bitcoin as it’s so new is experimentation that’s not to say put your life savings on here one of these devices but to start with a small amount justify maybe a purchase of one of these that could be a couple1 pound or dollars um with a couple hundred pound or dollars of Bitcoin start there and go through a gradual process of learning how to set one of these up deposit some Bitcoin into it make sure that you memorize the the words or the seeds or whatever it is that that’s set up for a particular device that you buy all of those different things will allow you to just go through that educational Journey because some people can be quite ignorant or resistant to change and yeah that’s the best advice I can give I of course picked the one that is got the orange plastic sck around it there’s a there’s a bias for things being Orange in this world now and they can be the more exclusive option of buying things but y this is for today’s video I hope you’ve learned something new that your Bitcoin is not inside this just your ability to spend it the authentication is secured and encrypted inside these thank you for listening bye-bye
