Hi, everyone!

I'm thinking about ordering usb ledger, but not sure which one is the best one.

Maybe you have some tips or suggestions?

Thx!

I'm using Ledger HW 1. Main reason is that if you lose your device, you can restore a new one or use any other compatible software wallet

The leder HW.1 is cheap and a good entry level usb device. But I don't think it is still produced.
And you need an air gapped computer to create the seed because the HW.1 does not have a screen which makes it a bit less safe as you will type the PIN code on the computer.

I can recommend the Ledger Nano S. It is not too expensive and it has a screen and thus is a bit safer than the HW.1.

The ledger nano s is a great hard wallet, I have a few of these myself. It is one of the best in the market and very easy to use.

One tip, only buy these ledgers from their official website as you want to make sure it authentic and has not been tampered with. The extra few days or weeks is worth the wait to make sure you dont lose your hard earned money.
